So, anyone familiar with me knows I occasionally like to sperg talk about the animation process in and of itself. And there's this website, Sakugabooru, which documents well-animated moments from Japanese and American media.
Anyways, the comments section there is a fucking joke. If it isn't the members shitposting, they're being holier than thou. I occasionally comment there too (For the sake of these stories, I go by the name of AniHunter there). There's this one guy, who goes by the name of ihhh, who thinks that the 12 principals of animation are a joke. This is the post in question. I join midway and give my opinion on the post in question. What follows is a bit of a comment war between him and several others (myself included), and near the bottom, he starts going complete :autism: mode calling out me and another user over the use of the 12 principals.
And it doesn't end there. There's another member, JacobYBM, who criticizes this post (which I can understand, Elmer looks pretty lifeless here). Not three posts down, the uploader (NAveryW, aka WalrusGuy. He's also the one who posted the above TTA clip) asks Jacob (a well-known prude when it comes to animation, especially if it's either American, or from Toei) why he thinks it's lifeless, and that's when the autism kicks in. I join in a little bit later, doling out my opinion. It devolves into a back in forth between me and Jacob, who pretty much makes it clear he's "Anime master race" when it comes to animation.
Then he posts this in response to another user:
Naturally, this is where a mod steps in and stops it before it gets any worse. But the point still stands- Jacob's spazzing over a piece of 1940s animation, then backtracking saying all American animation is crap. This isn't the only time he's done this shit too: He once got into a bit of a spat with KiserNeko on Kaizenshu (unfortunately, it goes no further than that). He's a regular there too, just scour though any DB thread where animation gets brought up, he'll be there.

"Until your hate boils with the ferocity of F. Murray Abraham's Antonio Salieri I suggest you go home and try again."
