I can't pinpoint what makes it special because there isn't anything that makes it special compared to the above.
It's quite fine, going to work just involved Alt-Tabbing and doing my essay lol. 15 minutes isn't going to throw it off, I'm just happily going to axe my density playtime tonight in favour of catching up on my work <.<

Here are the various calibers I have, the one next to the 12gauge shell is what that rifle shoots, .300 Win Mag. SpoilerNot trying to off-topic, guns were just brought up, and I love guns...

Same with guns, you find them boring I find them entertaining. Personal taste.
the one true God is Doctor Doom and we should all be worshiping him.
i'm the one who's actually trying to find philosophical/psychological/etc. value in a lot of these showsbut they're just SO empty
in order for me to enjoy it, it has to be artful on some levelthere has to be some intellectual merit
Quote from: Mr Psychologist on February 23, 2015, 03:13:43 PMI can't pinpoint what makes it special because there isn't anything that makes it special compared to the above.then you're just not understanding what i mean by special, because this point is integralit's absolutely fundamental to understanding where i'm coming fromif you did not see something in the anime that you enjoyedyou wouldn't watch animeand if it's something superficial like gore, just because you can't have as much blood in real lifethat is an extremely superficial reason to like anything, and i reject it on its faceif you have no other reasons to watch anime, i'm putting you in the "has bad taste" bin

Wait, what sorts of philosophical/psychological value are you getting out of playing Pokemon of all things? Where does the artistic appeal start in a game with such a simplistic premise and goal?

Where does the artistic appeal start in a game with such a simplistic premise and goal?pokemon is just a fragment of my childhood that i can't seem to let go ofthough it is admittedly less intellectually artful than any of my ideals demand, there are a number of themes present in some of the game's stories enough to keep it interestinglike, in generation V--the ethics of actually capturing and training and forcing the pokemon to fight with each other is explorednot to mention, competitive battling can get surprisingly complexcomplex strategy is artful in itself, i would arguethat is a good example though, and i'm glad you pointed that out
again, that all just sounds very superficial
Quote from: Septy on February 23, 2015, 03:23:35 PMagain, that all just sounds very superficial...then you're a stupid cunt, who1. didn't read the post, and didn't realize that i'm actually conceding that pokemon isn't that artful in any non-superficial way2. thinks that themes are superficial
Look at this damage control

It is made by Kahntrol, and the sizes you choose when ordering the brake are below .338 Lapua, or above. They are really nice.

Is writing an essay about your detailed opinion on something that hard?Am I just the shit, or something? Because if you ask me why I like anything that I like, I can write you a fucking ten page essay explicitly telling you every little thing that makes it good. It's not hard. Is it a time thing? It would take me no more than ten minutes to write something nice.
You know... If both sides just hush, and move on from this, You'd never bother each other again. You're as bad as each other. Just stop it.
Yeah, but Verb, you enjoy writing essays.

Well, I'm sorry, but I don't think you did it very well. You said everything I expected you to say--you like the story, the animation, the music. That's all just kind of obvious. Like, of course you're gonna like that. That doesn't really help me understand why you like it, though.
It doesn't. Explaining what you like tells me fuck all about WHY you like those things.
