Dude yeah I was thinking about that recently, like comparing Roiland’s one-noted-ness to someone like H. Jon Benjamin’s one-noted-ness, and how different they are. Like, you hear Roiland’s Lemongrab, or Rick, or Morty, or the alien from Solar Opposites, and you’re just like huh, the same guy voices all of those characters. They don’t sound identical, but I can tell it’s the same VA. But then you listen to Bob from Bob’s Burgers and Archer from Archer, and Coach McGuirk from Home Videos and you almost don’t realize at first that those three characters are voiced by the same guy, even though their voices are almost identical. Idk, I just think it’s kinda wild

Everything truly is a spectrum

Thank you for unlocking some very angry and also very happy memories from 12-year-old me

Nah, if anything, your “absolutely no compromises” approach is the one smearing black paint all over everything. That level of inflexibility and brittleness will only get in the way of actually accomplishing things.

K good luck making any progress or solving any problems whatsoever then*. One day you might realize that the real world is shitty and messy and requires compromise.

Nah, I’m just saying you’re being too picky. Right now, I don’t really think there’s anything wrong with rallying around a message of “Not Trump, Not Fascism”. You know, considering those are the things that are currently dismantling our democracy.

Calling people turncoats when they should be considered allies does nothing to fight the real, current threat in office. All this infighting just sets us back and puts us further down the road to fascism. This quest for the perfect liberal party is a waste of effort because it’s so pie-in-the-sky and borderline impossible to actually achieve in any meaningful length of time.

It sucks, but that’s reality. Our democracy is fucked, and trying to find even more idealist liberals to replace the likes of Bernie and AOC isn’t gonna fix it.

You know what, I’d take “not good enough” over “actively dismantling our democracy”, but fuck me I guess

Delaying the inevitable seems like a much better option than, you know, the inevitable

This is like Tom (from Jerry) working together with the Coyote (from road runner) to try and get air force one replacements available

I get what you’re saying, but I’d trust anything Tom and Wile E. Coyote got from Acme over whatever Boeing is putting out these days

You’d save a lot of pointless back and forth in threads like this if you just say what you mean, instead of making people drag it out of you bit by bit.

Brother what else is Colombia supposed to do to prevent an ethnic cleanse in an unfriendly state, other than sending planes to rescue their people from that state? Do you want them to declare war on the United States or what?

If you have constructive feedback, it seems like the photographer is open to it. It’s not dunking on anyone to say “hey great work and cool idea, just so you know the image looks a little “off” on my screen, possibly due to my accessibility settings, which are blah blah blah… hope this helps, thanks for the great work!”

I remember when you pretty much only used Amazon to buy books

Plenty of UI applications* are this bad

Right? Like my dude, bare minimum at least write down those steps in a text document so you can reference it the next time you have to add something. Bonus points for putting it on some shared internal wiki or whatever Microsoft uses.

I watched one of my friends play a bit, and the level design at times just seemed either intentionally confusing, or just bad. Like there was a lava level where the “main” path was actually a bunch of hidden paths separated by pools of lava that you had to run through and take damage. I can kind of forgive the running through lava part since coming into a boss fight at low HP or missing some flasks is the expected type of challenge in a souls-like, but the hidden main path thing just seemed annoying. And on top of that, the paths you were supposed to walk on were these big tree root/branch type things that were super easy to slide off of into the lava. It felt like tedium for tedium’s sake, not challenging in a fun way.

Obviously not, with the amount of people questioning you and not getting it. Also, Mississippi is probably one of the first places I’d think of if someone asked me “which states do you think would pass an anti-masturbation law”, so the satire has to be really obvious for people to get it, and it kind of isn’t here.

Short article, yet you failed to include the third that makes it illegal to jerk it:

“As written by Sen. Bradford Blackmon, the bill would make it “unlawful for a person to discharge genetic material without the intent to fertilize an embryo.””

Steve poorly or never communicated what he thought were satisfactory resolutions to past comments or incidents and is upset that those resolutions didn’t happen.

Steve very clearly says he would be happy with being attributed in a pinned comment on the video in question. Linus agreed to do that, then… didn’t do that. Steve is justified in being upset with the lack of action here, he isn’t Linus’s dad, he shouldn’t have to ask more than once for such a simple request.

and is only escalating the situation further by softly threatening legal action

If someone with as much money as LMG threatens legal action against you, it’s prudent to lawyer up and prepare a case/countersuit.

while also hinting that they have way more evidence they are just conveniently leaving out

Because when you’re preparing a legal case, it’s generally a good idea to not give your opponents all the materials you’re building your case with.

despite their current evidence being mostly empty (specifically receipts 1 and 2)

How are those examples empty? They may not be very extreme examples, but they clearly illustrate the type of behavior GN is claiming LMG engages in.

None of this spat should have been public

I can agree with you there.

If I had to declare a winner so far, Steve is looking worse for wear

Lol you lost me again

Everyone looks worse and this should have been handled privately. Maybe LMG should appoint someone other than Linus to handle fellow media contacts, because it doesn’t seem like he’s the best for that job.

Motherfucker pulled me right back in lmao

At speed, it probably just goes through the median
