    If you don't find Zizek funny that doesn't make you dumb.

    My car is in the shop to see if they can repair my A/C

    Meanwhile I'm waiting for Dad to give me a ride to the BMV to renew my driver's license

    wheee

    No, I mean my inability to determine if it's positive or negative joking

    I find him funny, I mean how else am I supposed to interpret the beginning and end of the Pervert's Guide to Ideology

  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    Zizek is a weird larger than life figure and i think a lot of people just find him funny, not necessarily in the sense that they think he's a bad critic or whatever, just that he's funny.  i feel like he cultivates this to some extent, but i'm not really sure how serious he is sometimes.

    He also does have a certain wit, though it's usually about things he's quite serious about.

    But there are definitely going to be people who just think he's ridiculous and the ideas he's espousing are ridiculous.  Marxist Freudian criticism is not exactly a trendy thing in 2015.  Plus he can be kind of obscure with his language which is a potential barrier to figuring what he's on about, which again people might find funny.

    So like, what Odradek said.

    They're green now instead of pink
  • Does this bother you?
  • JF Sargent wrote an article making fun of TvTropes for Cracked.

    From what Odra's said about how TvTropes views Sargent, there's probably rioting in that one thread right now.
  • And I can't even weigh in on it because he made fun of math shapes earlier in the article and I'm still pissed about that.

    I think we got a new Dethroning Moment of Suck for cracked. Talk about cherry-picking and Did Not Do The Research

    Would it be safe to say that a huge majority of Cracked's writers are hipsters? Because they sure seem to act like it.

  • My dreams exceed my real life
    http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/DethroningMoment/Cracked This page is really really bad

    For a brief moment, I wished the SA TvT thread was still alive, but then I remembered it would just be the same Chagen Pedo Animorphs jokes it always was.

    This Week is National Stop on Red Week. Red-light running is the leading cause of urban crashes, according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. Always remember to ‪#‎StopOnRed

    I've seen some PSAs that border on Captain Obvious territory but this is definitely up there

    I don't think Disney should own the Muppets really, but that's me
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    Also, whoever wrote those lines for St. Walt didn't realize that Disney paid about $100 million (or less than that depending on the source) for the Muppets.

    They will lose the mouse. In a few years, the mouse will be a hundred years old. Even the law won't be stretched any further than that.
  • My dreams exceed my real life
    They have abused their power and ruled over the American imagination as depraved tyrants

    I do admire some of the things Disney's done but don't like it when they hew so close to St. Walt's vision and find the fact that about 90% of their purpose is to uphold his legacy is just a tad creepy

    They drained wetlands to make a theme park.

    They are cuckoos of stories and cowbirds of art.

    They drowned lemmings to make a myth of ritual suicide.

    I have never heard of it.
    Weird.  Often dissonant, but more so as a consequence of his using sound differently and using nontraditional scales.  Also often meditative.  But strangely curious and occasionally really awesome.  Heavily inspired by his Catholic faith, as well as various other influences such as Hindu, Ancient Greek, Balinese, Javanese, Japanese, etc. musical elements.  Also, birdsong.

    I'm listening to his Twenty Contemplations on the Infant Jesus.  Some of these movements are downright weird, while others can become unexpectedly really spectacular.

    Here's a sample:

    It is getting around that time, huh?

    this'll be interesting. this'll set precedence for everybody else.

    Why am I getting no response
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    also people have this really creepy habit of speaking of Disney as this all-powerful entity that owns literally everything that has ever mattered
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    I know they shaped in huge part the perception of animation for generations but they're not ALONE in that, and they've gotten less alone as the decades have passed
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.

    we are silently awaiting the death of Disney
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    but yeah nobody's saying anything to my talk of animation other studios made :n
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    other studios made animation but they are doomed to be overshadowed by the Great Demon Mouse.

    hail capitalism
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    People always talk about Disney with such a sense of futility and hopelessness

    I envy them a lot as a big fan of Don Bluth.

    (But again, I try not to talk about the things I really like).
