Inactive Andrew Dobson / Tom Preston / CattyN - STOP DOING SEXIST CRAP

[AngeloTheWizard]

Out of a morbid curiousity, I went to Dobbo's patreon. I learned that the news post about his modem is locked behind the paywall-why? Isn't this something you'd like to tell even non-patrons, in case someone wanted to become a new patron?

How long does it take to set up a modem? Aren't they pretty much Plug-and-play nowadays?

Yes, you plug in your new modem, call the Indians working the call center, and tell them the modem's MAC address. It takes 10-20 minutes depending on how fast the call goes.

"But Ghostbusters was the best!"

Dobson, kindly remove the feminists' collective she-cocks from your mouth and stop being so desperate for attention.

Also, it'd be a short miracle if he ever mentions Ghostbusters again, the box office failure of that movie would simply remind his smug ass that he was actually wrong about something.

Hopefully not too off topic. But while re-reading the "Why Do We Hate Tom Preston" Tumblr, I found this: http://deconstructingsyac.tumblr.com

What the shit????

 

[Professor Iris]

Seth comes across as simultaneously heterophobic and gay-bashing at the same time.


First of all, numbnuts, GAYS LIKE FOOTBALL, TOO. Probably a lot of them, too.
Secondly, "gay" is not some kind of insult to freely toss around. Maybe you didn't mean it that way, but what are people supposed to take from, "Football is GAY!"
Three.....learn to make your characters' expressions tell the story. "Quiet demeanour" is NOT a sound effect.
And four: HANDS. DON'T. WORK THAT WAY!!!

You put more thought into that than Dobson did. I guarantee all he was thinking was "People think I'm weird for expressing my appreciation in dorky nerd shit when sports fans are just as serious about their appreciation." Not understanding that more people are into sports and that most people don't want to hear you talk about random star trek episodes in public. His whole gay thing was just trying to make people he doesn't agree with look bad, which just unintentionally makes him look like a bigoted idiot.

Dobson is aware 3D glasses don't look like that any more, right?

The homophobia dripping off that last panel is just wow.

Who even knows with him. He may have just been too lazy to put in the effort to make them distinguishable as modern 3D glasses. He may have thought his audience would be too stupid to realize they weren't 3D glasses unless they were old-school 3D glasses. He may actually not have seen a modern 3D movie and is just trying to stir shit.

He hasn't been outside his house for anything besides work for the past 5 years. Chances are he still thinks blockbusters are on every corner and those little rubber bracelets are still a prominent trend.

Giving him the benefit of the doubt, that's probably just a way to make it obvious that he was talking about 3D. It's kind of like that cheese wedge thing you see in cartoons. I don't think that's an actual cheese but you know from looking at it that it's suppose to be cheese.

"But Ghostbusters was the best!"

Ehhhh... this is one of those times where I shamefully admit I think Dobbles is kinda right on this one. Don't get me wrong, Deadpool, for what it was trying to be, did it really well. But it's kind of overrated by the fanbase, IMHO.

Dobs should really like this image, it has terrible anatomy, a stiff, boring pose and the foreshortening on the arm is garbage. Doesn't help that it's a really uninspired cover overall.

If anything, it should have been pulled for being shit and not for being sexist.

J. Scott Campbell was quite possibly the worst choice to do a cover with a 15 year old girl, because he's the quintessential example of a one-trick pony when it comes to art: he does sexy women with same face/same body/perpetual high-heel feet and absolutely atrocious anatomy. Look at his 'Danger Girl' art from the late 90's to his stuff today: the only real improvements is that he does more detailed work over his largely unchanged art style, and has a better colorist, but Nei Ruffino (said colorist) and whoelse that colors his work are merely polishing a turd, if not spraying gold paint over it and trying to pass it off as gold. Why they couldn't get someone like Babs Tarr or Karl Kerschl to do the cover is beyond me, but I'm getting off-topic here.

So again, I must concede one point here to Dobbles and Co., but I've had a long-standing hate boner for JSC to begin with.

As for Dobson's modem problem, let us hope he finds being offline is a better experience and decides to not come back for a long time. A really long time.

I really hope that's the case, otherwise it's poor research/laziness on his part.

He may lack regular internet at the moment but he still has a smartphone to replace it...well barely.

Oh look, more sucking up!

 

[Mechanical Hugbox]

Hasn't Dobson been stuck in his house for years, now that he has no internet will we get a few suicide tweets

Nah, Dobson's become lazy enough not to.

But what if they disagree with him? Or if they spray him with water? His PTSD would never allow it.

He may have a slow connection, but his powers to creep up onto random females online are still as strong as ever.

But what if they disagree with him? Or if they spray him with water? His PTSD would never allow it.

Just image him in a mall or super market where he walks past one of those try-out-stands.

The woman behind the counter looks up, smiles at him and asks: "Sir, would you like to try some our new collection cheeses, we sell over at the cheese counter?"

Dobson just freezes for a long second. Then his head jerks into her general direction, his eyes darting left and right over the nearby shelves in a panicked attempt not to make eye contact. His mouth stands slightly agape, droplets of sweat appear on his forehead and he starts wheezing. "Sir? Is anything alright?" the voice of the woman has become genuinely worried. She puts down the the tray of cheese dices she dutifully impaled with colorful toothpicks and steps around the counter. "Are you well? Do you need assistance?" she asks, as she comes closer.

Random muscles in Dobsons body start to tremble, the color of his face tumbles towards that of a ripe tomato and a vein on the side of his head becomes visible. "Sir? Should I call a doctor?" her hand reaches out towards him, trying to rest reassuringly on his shoulder. Before her fingers touch his shirt he explodes in a blur of jerky motions. He whirls around, his massive bulk bursting into motion like a fired cannonball. As he runs away a squealing noise bubbles up from his throat, that vaguely sounds like something a pig would make, that just realized that there is a bolt gun is waiting for it. With arms flailing like Kermit The Frog he partly slams into a shelf with condiments, knocking it over before he leaves the store, just to collapse a couple of steps later on a nearby bench - panting and dry heaving.

And once more Dobson seems incapable of actually forming an opinion on his own.

No Dobson, Age of ultron was not THAT awful.
It just wasn't as good as everyone expected it to be and the internet likes to overreact then. Not helped by feminists who of course felt raped cause Whedon did NOT turn Natasha in a powerhouse and working on the cliched "she can't have babies" trope in order to create some false drama. Which I admit was not really well thought through as a drama point, but hey. There are worse movies with more awful female protagonists (Ghostbusters 2016).
Not that you would understand any of that, cause you never had an own opinion in your entire life.
