The Groovy Gang episode of Venture Bros. is from the second season, so 2004-2005, something like that. And it was hardly original even at the time (though recasting her as Solanas sure was).

It's probably as old a joke as "Shaggy is a stoner".

But good on the current crew for making the one that would be the most stereotypical lesbian a lesbian. Hollywood creativity knows no bounds. /sneed

 

[Flexo]

I love that cartoon for children, and is such a pointless reveal, everyone who saw it knew Velma had a crush on a girl, whether she was Bi or Gay changes absolutely nothing for the plot. Absolutely seeking asspats.
Also, "Every Scooby-Doo iteration"?
Why do these bitches keep pretending to know about shit they obviously haven't seen?
I haven't seen everything Scooby related and even I know Velma has had several crushes on different men.
I know is such a small thing to focus on but that's just it, is so easy to not be wrong about it.
Edit: You gotta love the misleading headline, "Scooby-Doo's Velma is gay says Mystery Incorporated Staff" instead of the more correct "Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated's Velma is gay according to staff".

Velma kissed Sam Winchester in 2018.

I can’t wait for “Thelma is trans in every iteration of Scooby” Twitter fart-huffer sphere. Bob will claim that he knew that even in preschool.

Velma from the Mystery Incorporated series is pretty gay tbh, and I was ok with it, is my favorite Scoob series, it didn't come as a surprise to me that Dobson jerked off to it.

All it bothers me is that with big names like James Gunn and this being so public ALL future iterations of Velma will be lesbian.
Mostly because I can imagine Bob and Dobbo wacking their meat to a lesbian minor.

Spoiler: Shitty info about a kid's show and /co/ powerleveling

No, Velma doesn't munch carpet on the show, it was just "insinuated" because this was before Steven Universe, so yeah, all this fucking mess just for about 20 minutes of "more than friends" interaction.

 

[The tired cat]

Velma kissed Sam Winchester in 2018.

Man, when they had that scene of Dean, Sam and Castiel say how supernatural things exist and everyone starts freaking out. Like, it's clear this was supposed to be the Mystery Inc. where they said how Scooby Doo 13th Ghosts was canon, along with Zombie Island an etc..yet..they freak out from knowing that the supernatural shit exists.

 

[Flexo]

Heck, the Chernobyl writer himself claimed it was a metaphor for Donald Trump's dishonesty, and not really at all about the grossly corrupt and incompetent Communist government that precipitated the crisis. Denial ain't just a river in Egypt.

Ironic. It's not like communist governments covering up information to try and save face is timely or anything...

 

[Mola Ram]

Ironic. It's not like communist governments covering up information to try and save face is timely or anything...

Frankly, I sort of suspect the guy who said that (it was something about how Trump supporters are the old party apparatchik in the first episode who shuts down the city to contain "misinformation" and thereby condemns thousands of people to radiation poisoning) was making sure he didn't get kicked out of the club. Chernobyl is an excellent program, but like anything it has its historical problems. For instance, Dyatlov was nowhere near that much of an antagonistic asshole, and even had some highly sympathetic qualities that never made it into the show, such as his previous brushes with radiation leaks and how he inadvertently killed his son because the kid hugged him while he was contaminated. And its portrayal of late stage Soviet Communism, while dead on accurate, is occasionally so over the top ("Here's to the workers of the world!" chortles the fat, obviously incompetent official who used to run a shoe factory) that it could have been written by Reagan.

The Scooby Doo "continuity" is a mess. Sure, there are some things that are obviously their own separate continuity, like the live action movies and Mystery Incorporated, but everything else is completely unclear. There was a later movie or show where the gang revisits the 13 Ghosts stuff, with Velma and Fred not believing the supernatural stuff was real (because they weren't there, and think everyone was tricked or hallucinating) while Shaggy, Scooby, and Daphne insist it was. So apparently in the continuity of that 13 Ghosts happened in some form, but Zombie Island didn't. So I didn't really mind how Scoobynatural handled it.

The funny thing is that depictions of Velma as straight like in Scoobynatural (and several of the movies) are going to be considered the abnormal depictions from now on. No doubt portraying a fictional true and honest lesbian as being into dudes (even if it's a different version, and she was canonically into dudes first, none of that matters to the wokerati) will be considered too problematic.

Then Daphne started to freak out about the concept of the afterlife, Heaven, and Hell and questioned if she was going there. That was a very "laugh at the darkness of this" moment.

I haven't seen it since I was a kid but wasn't Zombie Island supposed to be when they were adults and we're meeting up after being apart for a few years?

Fuck, I feel like Bob trying to justify how the Mario cartoons fit into the games.

 

[The Littlest Shitlord]

Once again selecting one Bob tweet so I don't go insane trying to comprehend his stupidity (how the fuck does anyone tweet this much, there is something seriously wrong with Bob):

I like how this fucking dumbass completely misunderstands the guy's rebuttal to his "durr robocop gud" argument. It's the same sort of ignorance that basically anyone who's never done any studies into artificial intelligence possesses, this idea that machines are infallible and if we just make a good enough AI then we won't have to worry about human failings ever again! They're oblivious to the truth that an AI is only as good as the people who program it, as well as the data it's fed.

This was the point that Jackson there was trying to make: there are countless examples of AI getting things wrong, sometimes hilarious (a facial recognition AI that kept classifying black people as gorillas), sometimes fatal (Tesla's autopilot causing cars to slam into barriers at highway speeds because it thought the barrier was the road). AI isn't just a magic wand that you wave at things to make them instantly perfect. Like anything created by imperfect human beings, it has flaws and blind spots. I don't think any of these are actually intentional, so it's disingenuous to claim that a bunch of racist programmers think black people are apes. It just goes to show how much work still remains in the field.

Bob being Bob, he thinks that Jackson was only referring to the cops as being racist (because duh, all cops are racist), not the programmers themselves. Thus, he sees no problem with replacing all cops with robots that accidentally end up killing any black people they see due to a bug in their code.

It's incredible just how dense this fatso can be sometimes. Like, black hole dense. No intelligent thought (or hamburger) can escape Blobbo's event horizon.

Bob has a religious blind faith in the power of Experts. Remember when he wanted to get rid of the Democratic primary and just have some unspecified elite experts appoint a candidate? It's because everything bad stems from stupidity, to which Experts are immune, just put every decision in their hands and everything will be fine. Bob doesn't have the slightest notion that some problems are just really hard and even the most Expert-y of Experts can't solve them yet. Bob has even less idea that some problems are literally impossible and will not be solved ever. This is an idiot who thinks that we are on the verge of rewriting the laws of physics. Bob doesn't want to think about the fact that experts can be corrupt and work in their own best interests rather than his. Bob very definitely doesn't want to think about the possibility that the process for certifying Experts has itself become corrupt and will give out unearned credentials to people of the "correct" gender and skin color and political beliefs (see: fat black idiot Stacey Abrams graduating Harvard). For Bob to contemplate these possibilities is for Bob to contemplate a life without higher guidance, and anyone whose ever seen a religious True Believer contemplate the thought that God doesn't exist knows how upsetting that can be.

Yep, it sure was.

Nigga, why is there even a Scooby Doo fanbase? It's a cartoon dog and idiots who do nothing but solve the same bland mystery over and over again.

 

[Pol Pots Pooter]

In fairness to Bob there hasn't been a Disney movie yet about Tammany Hall, he probably thinks the fat guy in the suit in Gangs of New York was a Republican (assuming he wasn't double fisting Dew Chikkin into his fat disgusting gob at the time and missed it entirely), and to him machine politics is probably using an AI to just decide who runs the country.

 

[Pokemonquistador2]

Nigga, why is there even a Scooby Doo fanbase? It's a cartoon dog and idiots who do nothing but solve the same bland mystery over and over again.

Because Scooby Doo has always been a franchise that has done nothing but pander to the current trends of the day. That's why everyone dresses like (what media executives thought) the cool kids dressed like in 1969, why they drove around in a "groovy" van, why the first series featured lots of twangy rock interludes, why Sandy Duncan and Cass Elliott became "guest stars" on the show, why there was an "X-Babies" iteration of the show when the "X-Babies" fad was popular, and why Scrappy Doo was added when "Cousin Oliver" character types were popular. No one gave a crap about show continuity until the Rise of Nerd Culture and sperging out over franchise timelines became a thing.

Scooby Doo has always been a show where a bunch of grey-suited executives sat around a table and said "Hmm. What popular things are the kids into these days?" Unfortunately for us, the "popular thing that kids are into these days" are hyperwokeness and militant LGBT shippery.

I think he gets read into too deeply to be honest. I don't think he puts (or is capable of putting) as much thought into his silly posts as the people who micro-analyze him.

I doubt he's ever read a book on any of the subjects longer than a video-game instruction manual, and most of his ideas about "robots" or whatever come from TV and comics; rather than any actual book on the subject such as Asimov.

(My understanding is that things such as "robots" and "people" are dichotomic to begin with; basically there are certain "tasks", usually ones which are easily repeated which can be "automated" by robots, however the "tasks" in question are only very small part of the overall "package" to begin with, and only exist that way in pure abstraction or speculation, as opposed to any real actual "job, task, and so forth".

So the whole thing is just based on a handful of simplistic, unoriginal axioms backed up by circular reasoning (not to mention the simple economic reality that any "jobs" or "tasks" which were automated would create "new jobs"; which has been the case throughout history - e.x. the printing press created new jobs for printers and print machinists; the automobile created jobs for auto designers and manufacturers; the personal computer created new jobs for computers and web designers).

So no, I don't see anything remotely "contemporary or cutting-edge" about Bob's "job" to begin with; social media "Jobs" are dime-a-dozen and haven't been "contemporary" since the earily 2000s; most of Bob's commentary is unoriginal, ADHD nonsense written at something like a 6th grade reading level which could be easily automated or replaced.

Bob basically just "shoots fish in a barrel"; by imagining one of the stereotypically stupid clods who bullied him HS (like "Moe" from Calvin and Hobbes), when a lot of the actual "meatspace" jobs probably actually require more logic and mathematical knowledge than Bob churning out stupid, unoriginal comments or "opinions" on social media.

Most likely he'll never actually "improve" and evolve up from the laughing stock that he currently is (as in, actually reading any book on any subject he talks about written at a level above the 6th grade or average social media writing level), since 99% of his "world" as is would be bust, and he'd be forced to more or less retract 99% of the "comments or statements" that's he's wasted years of his life on marketing as a "progressive job or career", when it's more akin to a "celebrity gossip" author like Perez Hilton wrapped up in a "nerd or geek" veneer to appeal to mouth breaders who identify with "geek chic" but in reality have less knowledge about anything remotely mathematical than the average plumber or carpenter does.

 

[Karl der Grosse]

Look, sometimes mysteries can't be solved by a groovy gang and their talking dog and it requires the help of Phyllis Diller or the Harlem Globetrotters. It's best not to think too deeply about these things.

 

[StraightShooter2]

Has this guy ever reviwed anything more emotionally or intellectually deeper than cartoons, comic book films, and video games marketed to 10 year olds?

He reminds me of spergs who read excessive "depth" into things when even the creators themselves didn't intend it.

(Example, a huge amount of "Star Wars fandom" about things that even George Lucas didn't care about, such as the circumference of the Death Star - or the Beatles' Song "I am the Walrus", which apparently had been read into deeply by professors and critics, when the Beatles themselves said it was just a "nonsense song intended for children" with no meaning whatsoever).

Spoiler: /co/tard strength

idk man, but Scooby-Doo has always been special, you can see that from all the other copy paste mystery gangs Hanna-Barbera did that didn't survive, it was pretty original for it's time and not as repetitive as people think. Most of the cliches people remember come from the late 70s to late 80s shows and by all means and purposes the franchise should've died, I'm not going to pretend there isn't decades worth of rubbish but when it gets good and the people working behind it put the effort, it can be very fun.

 

[Positron]

Has this guy ever reviwed anything more emotionally or intellectually deeper than cartoons, comic book films, and video games marketed to 10 year olds?

Very occasionally he does. He reviewed Verhoeven's Elle, which I think is a very intriguing and well-made film, though I think he was interested in the film because of 1) Verhoeven directed Robocop and 2) it is about a strong woman who worked in the video game industry falling victim to rape.
