RE: Star Trek Autism

Most people in the Star Trek universe would reject someone with Bob's attitudes. They give you a lot of chances if you want to be a better person. That's...literally the entire ethos TNG+: we can't make ourselves rich, so let's make ourselves into better people. This is not through shitty transhumanist nonsense, something that is rejected by Star Trek aggressively (the borg, various villians who wanted to live forever, the augments), but rather through trying new things, developing new skills, experiencing new cultures if possible. You're given a hell of a lot more respect as a person if you try your hand at acting and become alright at it than anything else. A true Starfleet officer would reject an "immortal robot body" concept and any Trek episode keeping in line with how the shows are written would point out how insane and fucked up wanting that would be.

If you were not to make any attempts at being a better person, you're promptly forgotten. And I mean this, Bashir's dad was a loser who had "big plans" and basically did nothing his entire life but think about how he was going to be an architect - he never actually ended up doing fuck all with his life because he was lazy and unskilled. He didn't end up homeless by being shit at his life but he was simply ignored. Someone like bob would certainly be allowed to be a fat dipshit and have a pretty good life(long, too, as medical advancements in those time periods were insane).

Should be noted that a lot of Star Trek's worldbuilding was just people throwing shit in there as a gag and forgetting it. No money? Comedic effect in Star Trek IV, later revised as The Canon even though McCoy talks about money in Star Trek VI, and there's three different references to "earning your pay" in the TOS show. Vulcans spurred change in humanity? Go to enterprise and meeting the vulcans instantly turned every human being into a communist and they radically globalized (after a devastating series of nuclear and racial wars, with absolutely no hard feelings) within 30 years.

Star Trek is not written very well as a setting. It's a great vehicle for stories of varying qualities. If you step back and focus on the big picture it's fucking nonsense. But boy oh boy, there's some great stories in that franchise.

One of the great ironies of Bob's hubris is that he'll be the villain if you put him in just about any fictional universe he fanboys over. He's the Bowser, the Hedorah, the Thanos.

Nope, he couldn't even tell the difference between Skyrim and Dark Souls. And then when he was called out of that stupidity, he insisted that it was okay because he'd only done three paid game reviews in the past. So I guess we're supposed to ignore (at the time) 100 episodes of Game Overthinker, plus all those Big Picture videos, a series which began with him commenting on Halo by saying it was racist.
Click to expand...
Oh, his hot take on Halo was some vintage Bob stupidity. He said it was racist because the marines were mostly white humans and the aliens had a diverse range of species, and so the Covenant were really the good guys. Of course, if Bob had done even an ounce of research he'd know that the reason the Covenant are so "diverse" is because they enslave every race they conquer. It'd be like calling the slavery-era south "diverse" because it was so full of black, irish and Chinese slaves.

One of the first examples of Bob thinking the world is exactly like a Simpsons joke.

Remember when Bob said Metroid Prime sucked because it was a FPS?

The actual reason is even worse. Bob doesn't like Prime because "FPSes are the most creatively bankrupt genre." He has never given more detail, just that it was bad because you were in first person.

That demonstrates how much of an idiot Bob is because the Metroid Prime retained most of the elements from previous entries in the series. If anything, Metroid Fusion was a bigger deviation from the series formula because of its more mission-focused gameplay (though an excellent game in its own right.) I get the distinct feeling that Bob never played Prime. Hell, I reckon the only Nintendo games he bothers with are in the Mario series.

I, for one, am looking forward to Metroid Prime 4.

Bob wanted the game industry to be normified but not in the way it has but more that everyone would play the games he likes and make him feel like an elite the same way how he feels with how Marvel is vastly popular in the movie industry.

Give it a few years. Now that Endgame has come and gone, the MCU is going to begin experiencing the law of diminishing returns. Disney will beat it to death and move on.

But what about Bob? Will he go along with it? Or will he hate Disney for taking away his capeshit?

I never thought I'd see such blatant trolling as I have in this forum. Step away from the computer, drop the ham sandwich and back the FRACK off, mayo ghoul. I hate to use that word but you've made me that serious. As hard as it may be for you to fathom, some of us here are actual fans of the Marvel™ Cinematic Universe (post Avengers) and Joss Whedon's work in general. You can try to bash me for an avatar that I bought because I happen to be a dedicated fan of perhaps the most poignant, painstakingly woven tapestry of love, loss and vengeance ever to be put from pen to paper, but you would fail, just like all of you flamers do in real life. Who can say that the minds at Marvel™ (note: appropriate portmanteau is MCU, not the laughable MarCU) were not inspired by the works of William Shakespeare or Chuck Palahniuk? Captain America's shield has more akin with the bastard sons of Macbeth than it does any armament or basilard of the time. Amanzi Kwakhona Umlambo in Wakanda reminds me more of the superior future than any mayo ghoul city. So please, use your brains, not your sarcasm, and step up to the intellectual plate, or leave this forum and take your "haterade" with you.

Bob will blame the same people who didn't like Ghostbusters 2016 and Disney Wars if Ms. Marvel, Kate Bishop's Hawkeye, and Ironheart aren't as successful as early MCU films.
