  • It doesn't seem really fair to dislike the entire site, though. It has at least 20 contributors.
  • “I'm surprised. Those clothes… but, aren't you…?”
    If you have only seen things that irk or bore you on a site and have no interest in slogging through that just to find the good stuff, disliking it is more than understandable. Being actively nasty about other people liking it is a different matter, however.
  • Fair enough. Still, I think "I don't really care for what I've seen on TGWtG and I don't feel like looking at other stuff on the website" sounds better than "I don't like TGWtG."
  • THIS MACHINE KILLS FASCISTS
    I imagine most of that guff is from the time when the site was getting a lot of buzz (c. 2009-2010) and people were being really obnoxious about it.

    And Sredni, I have mixed feelings about Linkara myself. As a reviewer, he's decent (if a little dry, especially in the earlier reviews), but he also seems to want desperately to make a sci-fi side show related to the review show and mush them together in rather awkward ways. 
  • THIS MACHINE KILLS FASCISTS
    Also, I just googled "lagomorph mugu mugu" and one of the hits was a post I made on TVT back in 2010. And I see me awkwardly flirting with Ally down the page and I'm like "urgh, you are doing it wrong" :P

    A review should be straightforward and yes, it's okay to be funny but don't drag it out with useless jokes and storylines that have to nothing to do with the review.

    Today was a good day.

    I still feel a little guilty about skipping class, but I think it was for the better since I got my medicine now and I'm no longer a sleep-deprived bundle of anxiety. Plus my parents bought me Subway, which was nice.

    Oh about NC...I don't like the Demo Reel actors being in his reviews that much and the skits last even longer which is annoying padding.

    Agreed. Since he un-cancelled the series he's only done, what, one episode that didn't have shoehorned skits of some kind?

    Fine, but I'm using you as a decoy when I don't feel like listening to lectures.

    How will I do that, you ask? I dunno, I'll cross that bridge when I get there.

    Actually, I don't necessarily agree with this, But I do feel that TGWGT contributers arent pulling this kind of thing off good.

    Alternately: "It's not my thing." But still, begrudging people for not liking something that you like is unfair.

    My issues are broader than that, and ultimately lay as much blame on how he is perceived and presented as on him. In short: He is a fan, not an expert (by his own admission), yet is treated and often acts like one; his reviews tend to be poorly structured and lack a strong critical arc; his humour frequently relies too strongly on the "self-evident;" he is indecisive about the incorporation of skit material and how much of a "character" his persona is; and his political opinions (about which he can be very smug) are all over the place and remind me a bit much of a certain ex-member of this site.

    So that is that.

    I don't watch TGWTG

    I did watch Nostalgia Critic a couple of times, and I kinda like him i guess

    Yesterday, I bought Powerpuff Girls stickers from Kmart that was there for over 10 years. Comes to show how outdated that store is. O_o

    ...Did you just call Kmart awesome?

    Also, BTW, Risperidone makes me really sleepy when I take it for the first time in a while

    So I might end up crashing; get your IRC-ing in while you can

    Remember that time Naney watched Film Brain and was traumatized.

    That was funny.
  • Not for me.

    I like Film Brain ;_;

    Admittedly, that wasn't one of his better reviews. I generally find him more tolerable when he's less shouty.

    We should play it together, since it's two-player.

    How can anyone choose anything other than the chaser gun? You don't even have to aim

    the chaser is weak and pathetic like american capitalism

    use a gun like Lightning/Flame for REAL SOVIET DAMAGE.

    It is a tad weak. I like to combine it with flame for the bestest weapon

  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    now this is what I call a platform game
  • The autopsy supposedly showed that Michael Jackson did have a skin condition.

    The autopsy doesn't say anything about the molestation charges. But man, what if it did?

    Oh. Well, I have the ROM and an emulator. But we'd kinda need to be in the same room I guess.

    Probably.

    I have not heard of the game Probably.
  • Is it called Seven Minutes in Heaven?

    Is it the Chloroform version?

    Everyone knows that morticians can see into the souls of the dead. You just don't because that was a lie that I made up right now.

    You could build a robot clone of me to play the game with you and I will build a robot clone of you for the same purpose. :)
  • I have not heard of the game Probably.

    Well, it is a secret. I will leave that pun there.
  • I slept all day and am still tired

    this wouldn't have happened if I had not stayed up for the past two and a half days straight. I want to play more Crusader Kings 2 but don't want to get engrossed in it for like eight hours at a shot again.
