"Mad at the Internet" - a/k/a My Psychotherapy Sessions

People here probably don't get as annoyed by GOT because there's no cultists trying to force you to watch it constantly every week, over and over, despite you saying "no" again and again. The show is known to be completely degenerate and I've never seen anyone try to pretend that it's not. If you want to watch gross anime in your private time, nobody is stopping you dude. The issue starts when you try to make other people watch it and pretend that it's actually hecking wholesome and just deep social commentary.
You should read the books they're pretty great, up until Feast of Crows. I can honestly say they were the best books I ever read, as a scifi/Fantasy enjoyer, better than all the greats (Tolkien, Abnett, Asimov, Clark, Dick, Banks, Abercrombie, etc etc). The tv show always looked kinda shitty to me but that's probably because I read the books before it was a thing and the show just looked cheap in comparison. The books though, they were good, imo (the audiobooks weren't so great, excepting the wider universe stuff - Dunk & Egg etc, I enjoyed those).
 
I would get it if these were people who got them to deliberately cause harm to people but she is a goddamn mother.

I genuinely don't get is this the dog version of " I can fix him" ???
It's just like how people aren't able to call black majority countries shit holes because that's a heckin' harmful stereotype, then they go to some place like Haiti only to get fucking murdered and put on a spit roast to be eaten.

Clearly josh has never heard/read Goodnight Punpun, weird that on 4chan you were in the culture enough to try Lucky Star but not Goodnight Punpun or Yotsuba.

Fascinating Martin fascinating indeed HOWEVER.

What do they fucking eat in Westeros during the fucking winter? Winters that go on for years at a time, that doesn't raise questions for your Martin? Not even enough to address it once in the entire fucking series? Are we to simply skip over the fact that ten year winter cycles would result in the extinction of virtually all herbivorous life as we know it on Earth? How are there still deer, Martin? How are there still deer, Martin? Do you know what deer eat? Cabbage seeds prior to the invention of cryopreservation had a viable storage life of about four years. How are there still cabbages, Martin? How do squirrels still exist, Marin?

You spend too much time thinking about cum, Martin. You're a cumbrain, Martin. Even when you write about food you write about eating it and never about where it fucking comes from, Martin. Martin, life is very full of farming, or should be, and as much as I admire your scatological morality play about totally morally ambiguous gray characters like Janos Slynt or Greyjoy or Vargo Hoat the Evil Goat or the Mountain that Rapes, and I think you've written a terrible book series that is already being forgotten - you do have to wonder where all that fucking food came from.

In response to fans of Martin who compared Trump favorably to characters from A Song of Ice and Fire, Martin doubled-down on his criticism of Trump by making the case to his fans that Trump shares many personality traits in common with King Joffrey, a near-universally hated character from the series, concluding that "Trump is a Grown-Up Joffrey"

Best the avoid the TV show. The first few seasons are OK, they still make stupid changes to the characters and add dumb plot threads that never would've existed but it really goes off the rails leading up to The Red Wedding. The books are fantastic and so fleshed out, maybe someday we'll get Winds of Winter and Brandon Sanderson can finish it up by writing A Dream of Spring. I would say it's dishonest to compare the incest in anime versus A Song of Ice and Fire since it really isn't written to be a positive thing with Cersei and Jamie and nearly every other instance is a reference to "keeping bloodlines pure" and even then that leads to "Targaryen madness" versus the incest in anime normally displayed in a way to be the couple you're supposed to be "shipping".

I used to be an anime fan until I started interacting more with people who exclusively consume it. It's so tiresome, they're really draining to talk to since it's all they want to discuss and then the porn addiction that comes with it is insufferable. I'll occasionally re-watch some old favorites like Full Metal, Erased, or Monster but that's about it. Not much point recommending it to Josh because he's made it clear it isn't for him, which is completely fair imo. I did hope if they ever did pay him to watch one they'd pick something that isn't degenerate and nasty.

Well there is your problem. Anime is just a medium. There are many great black and white movies, but if you interact with those who exclusively watch it then you are going to meet dickheads.
My only claim is like most media when it was made and it's ethos are good indicators of quality, not it belonging to a specific medium. BTW moe anime is the worst genre that if anything has poisoned the entire medium it would be moe more than anything.

I actually quite enjoy the Japanese language by itself. I like that basically every word ends on a vowel. Makes it flow well and it makes it much easier to draw out and yell the words. Chinese sounds like shit and living in the south ruins Spanish because it just sounds like a language for criminals.
 
dude even though I like psycho pass, I would recommend people to read proper science fiction before recommending they watch gook cartoons that convey the same ideas. get real.
Much as I hate to defend anime here, there is something to be said for giving someone something more approachable that conveys the same ideas. If someone watching Psycho Pass introduces them to these concepts and leads them to reading other works exploring similar concepts it's a win.

>they should just read the books then!

lmao people don't read books anymore unless they're really into something nigga get real
 
I don't @ the guy. But this is the internet, built for retarded opinions. If it comes up it comes up. Still think he should watch Frieren even though he never will, it's good.

Anime has to be the only medium where even its most die hard fans (speds) "recommend" you the most retarded slop imaginable.

This is the anime in question

@Null So that SS14 drama that you went over on MATI (that I posted)? Retard 2 claims they got banned by retard 1 from the SS14 git for wrongthink (archive), but wait, the root of that shit is even gayer than you expect:

Originally the drama started because the launcher devs delisted the "based" servers (read: valid furries n' sheet, nigger word pass, et al.). Supposedly you can get dehubbed from the main launcher for wrongthink by association to anyone whose been dehubbed already but there's no hard proof on SS14. Retard 2 leads the charge on trying to spin these with a long ass reddit textblock (archive). Then there was some sort of internal shenanigans with the gay sex (ERP) server called nyanotransen, some sort of praetorian guard coup like bullshit. The server had 6+ hosts "elected" within 2 weeks by the admin team.
This is what pissed off Retard 1 to make the alt launcher a reality.

tl;dr: Degenerates like them belong on a cross
