Being - present participle of be.

 

[Clay Claymore]

"Please be being ironic."

What is grammar, Alex?

Idk what happened there. The word "being" shouldn't be there. Just leave it at "Please be ironic."

Maybe he is writing out the "be" sound his fat jowls make when he has to form the letter B.

I think it's grammatically correct. Just such an awkward construction it doesn't communicate clearly. "Please tell me you're being ironic" would be a lot clearer. *snorts authoritatively, jams glasses up the bridge of nose*

 

[Duncan Hills Coffee]

For a guy who dismisses arguments based on minor grammatical errors, Bob has an issue grasping spelling and sentence structure himself.

One thing you'll never hear people say. "We need more film critics."

We'll just have robots as our film critics in the Superior Future.

If that happened, I guess you could say the shoe would be on the other foot...provided Bob still has feet by then.

I didn't read that article, but is Bob assuming they voted for Trump simply because they're farmers from Kansas?

Never occurs to him that there are tons of Republicans, especially farmers and business owners who use lots of migrant workers, that are totally in favor of more, less restrictive immigration. This is the main reason Trump won the primary over vastly better qualified candidates: the refusal of the Rep. establishment to deal with the conflict between its base and its upper echelon on the immigration issue.

It doesn't occur to him because he's a hateful simpleton who likes big words.

Yeah, bob's hatred for blue collar people legit pisses me off for two reasons:

Spoiler: reasons

-My grandfather worked at a ford plant in his heydays and worked hard to provide for my dad and his brothers.

-I have a friend who's father works at a steel mill and said friend has hydrocephalus. You can imagine how hard his dad has to work there to make ends meet.

Would Bob support a Dem version of Trump if we got one in 2024? Cause in all likelihood we're getting one at some point with how they're ignoring their base. A guy people are voting for because "Fuck you".

 

[A Random]

He might, so long as not-Trump plays to most of the real Democrats' tastes while still being a complete assface clown. But if it means getting the votes of the central America folk, he might be too assmad to do it.

Bob is one of those guys who would argue that the working class is completely irrelevant to the DNC's interests. Add to that the "betrayal" of the working class switching to the Republicans this election cycle. Bob would most likely argue that it's in the DNC's interests to completely drop the group, as they've proven to be both useless with their power and fickle in their allegiance.

Bob would likely ignore the fact that the white working class voting for Trump likely sealed the election for him as they pushed several Midwestern and Eastern States into the Republican camp for 2016.

 

[Kyria the Great]

I wonder what Bob will say once Hispanics become the majority of the working class people who are usually deeply Catholic, socially conservative, as well as believe family is the most important structure in society? Not to mention that once automation kicks in how they will also be left to the dust in his "superior future".

By the time that happens, he'll probably be dead from Diabetes complications.

Unless the Son of a bitch somehow survives long enough to add augmentations to his body. Speaking of that, what does he think of the comic book character Cyborg? The kid/man who often laments the near half-life he lives?

We'll just have robots as our film critics in the Superior Future.

I won't be surprised if an algorithm for analyzing Hollywood fare is within today's technology. The program figures out the genre and the basic gist of the plot, then assign a score based on genre-specific criteria: number of car chases and explosions in action films, jump scares in horror, will-they-or-won't-they moments in chick flicks, etc. You may assign a "diversity quotient" if you want too! It is another matter to review a Japanese or Chilean mind-fuck, but the shit Bobby loves are extremely derivative and transparent. Hence, "critics" like him belong squarely to the Inferior Past -- after all, who wants to watch an obese potato man if you can watch a sexy CGI avatar?

Honestly, anyone can probably make a program right now that does Bob's job because he's not a real critic. He only has a hard-on for big brands and doesn't understand substance beyond a Superior Future checklist he keeps in his head. Even popcorn flicks like the MCU are too deep for him where he can't understand the plot but likes it anyways because "MARVEL STUDIOS" at the beginning.

It's DC so he's a nigger. He'll pretend to like him if he's popular but find some way to shit on fans of DC's comics or films anyways. Possibly by going on about how Superior Future he is to the Martian Manhunter (who could've been played by a black man and used that as his human disguise anyways) as fans of the comics are still butthurt about that.
