Cluster headache? I'm sorry you get those fam.
I'd give my left nut to have nobody suffer those.

It's kind of spamming, but it's pretty easy when you have others doing it as well. I just don't understand how y'all nigs can get 1500 posts that fast on a forum that's crawls at the speed this one does nowadays. I would just feel like I was spamming idk.

No, just DC in general. No matter what DC does they're going to get shit for it. Either they do what they're doing now and commit to their EU but get yelled at on one side with "Riding Marvel's coat tails!" "You'll never be as good as Marvel!" "Marvel is way better!" or they don't do it at all and get yelled at from the other side "You HAVE to do this!" "Where's our JL movie?!" "DON'T YOU FUCK THIS UP!" There's literally no winning for DC in this position. Talking about Zack Snyder?

It's hard to get your head in the game when everyone around you is literally criticizing you and telling you you're just riding on the coat tails of others but that you HAVE to do it anyways. And that every mistake you make is going to make things worse and worse for the rest of your life.

Sorry, but I completely lost interest in TAC when they outed me because I didn't want it to be /a/ 2.0. They all hid in the IRC and didn't bother posting but criticized me when I was too busy finishing high school to post in the forums. I was only ever able to make two friends out of that group Nox and Bryan who I still talk to to this day and Nox is probably one (keyword there, ONE) of the closest internet buddies I have. And even he didn't care too much about TAC. The Anime Community. The IRC is still going, but posting remains infrequent to this day.

TAC? TAC (which you are aware of) is one of the last bastions of community left to me, and even there I've slowly lost a desire to remain.

If this place disappeared I'd probably go back to having 4chan open on the side while doing nothing. I wouldn't be totally destroyed by it, but it would hurt a bit since after B.net went to the dogs I felt "homeless" on the internet for almost two years. I spent a hefty amount of time on the FFXIV Subreddit, but Jesus is that a pestering shit hole. Also, despite the fact that I honestly only came back because one user in particular was on here frequently during the time frame, I'm glad they brought me back because it helped me keep some genuine possible friendships, since I'm not good at starting them IRL. There's nothing wrong with finding a "home" on the Internet, but it's important not to take it too far.

So I've only been legitimately active here since mid-January. Before that I had some posts here and there but I'm pretty sure it was about like 20-30 posts. Too lazy to check.
Despite this I have over 1500 posts, this is a complete contrast to another forum I currently frequent a lot. I've been a user there since 2011 but only have 1400 posts and I think only two threads in total made.
For me, I can't bring myself to be very active with the community there. I mean, it's not that I don't want to be, otherwise I wouldn't be there in the first place but I think the users here are a lot better than the ones over there. There's not a single one of you who I actually don't like (some of you I'm not talking to [they know who they are] right now but I don't actually hate them). Over there it's filled with people who are pretty self-absorbed and chauvinistic, taking any differing opinion as being a contrarian or ignorant (or both).
Back on B.net I was active up until this year and was Fabled, so a post count well over 20k. I really enjoyed the community up until the last two years and everyone who I truly missed is here now which is my reason for wanting this place to be my new internet home. But I wonder about everyone else, how attached are you to an internet forum or a internet community in general?

You wanted me to take something from Star Wars that I didn't relate too originally. I forgot what my point was.

Well when I think about somebody who I think might be a rotten bitch or a fucking douche bag, seeing that helped me wonder what would it take in their lives to reach a level of caring about how I feel. That's not a takeaway. You're just describing what happened.
Did it change your life? Did you learn anything? Did you become a better person?

Seeing an emotional struggle from a character that at the time of watching (My first viewings of Episode V and VI) I thought was just a cold, unemotional, machine without any regard for the lives of others. What did you take away from it?

Sorry, I'm thinking of a seizure. I had a guest have one yesterday at work, first time calling 911 ever, not fun.

If he was really having a stroke, he wouldn't have the time to respond to this. On a scale of dehydrated to migraine, how badly does your head hurt?

And if I were to take something from Star Wars that I can't relate to? By "abstract," I mean "abstract."
Not, "I can relate to Luke Skywalker despite not being a magical swordsman or star pilot."

Because I can totally relate to the plight of Star Wars characters without having it be abstract? Or take from it without relating to it? Offtopic, but that's also helping further my points with Das on how Deep Eva is. Relatability is about as shallow as you can get, by the way. It's the most safe form of film-making there is. Not that there's nothing wrong with that--it's the easiest way to make an entertaining movie. But it isn't deep.
If you're able to take something away from a movie that you CAN'T relate to, or can only relate to in abstract ways?
That's deep.

Can't be the latter since there's nothing to back up that statement. Cheap nostalgia-bait cash-in with unlikable, chauvinistic, and slobbish characters?
Or a social commentary depicting a dystopic vision where gaming, as a global phenomenon, is destroying the lives of millions?

"Makes you think." AND "More than what it appears on the surface." Anything that makes you think is deep. All right.
Literally everything requires you to think. Adam Sandler movies are deep, according to you.

I haven't, then again I don't really talk to them as much as I used to but I don't recall ever saying anything cringey like that to them. Everyone has said goofy shit to one of their crushes before.

How is that deep? The fact that it requires you to think? I just told you how it was deep. The story is more than just what it appears to be. It's similar. How is that similar?

Thanks for explaining it without needing a menstruation cycle. He was trying to hit on Padme. "I dislike sand. It's coarse and irritating and it gets everywhere." Then he follows up by saying something along the lines of her being the antithesis of sand.
It's still really shitty, but more in a "homeboy lucky he's pretty" kind of way.

It's not deep because it's not deep. Explain to me how, if Darth Vader were an original character, that would somehow make Star Wars deep.
It's the most shallow series I can think of. It's not just Vader you Mongoloid, it's the cast having their back stories being interwoven with that of the MC who may be just the generic cliche hero. The political background of the OT is a reference to the Nazi's and WWII, not only that but how timeless it is and can be understood by any generation and how it could be applied to the events in their life. Just the simple fact that you have take something at more than just face value in the movie shows that it's not shallow. It'd be simple to say it was shallow if there was just like, a single nod or reference and that was it. But the fact that the OT is riddled with them is a completely different story. Wanting to rule galaxies =/= Following someone who wants to rule the galaxy Similar =/= Exactly the same.
Except it's not even similar. It'd be similar if Vader wanted to "Rule" something, but he never did.

It's not deep. Even if Darth Vader was a completely original character, that still wouldn't make Star Wars deep. Not even close. "It's not deep because I said so!" Yes, he was. Saying that "he doesn't" doesn't make you right. Wanting to rule galaxies =/= Following someone who wants to rule the galaxy Nice edit there you fucking crybaby.

Because you're a stereotypical pathetic SW fanboy. Yeah, it HAS to be because I'm a fanboy, not because it might actually be "deep", God forbid right? You told me to find "similar" characters, you fucking dumbass. Not "exactly the same fucking character."
Moving the goalposts much? You're right, I asked for a similar character, but visual designs is grasping at straws, and the only character you provided as far as behavior/personality/purposes go wasn't similar at all.

They'll blow the same regardless. I'm looking for the ones that have the brightest lights attached. They're fans.
Pick the one that blows the hardest.

Tumblr is like a modern day Crucible. It would be really sad and pathetic if it wasn't so damn funny.
