This generation is lost man.
Nah I'm kidding. Just don't start posting about your younger cousin drinking hand sanitizer
i never have to work at it. its my default face. which cracks whenever im with friends.
.
Now from the sounds of it I was this person in High school and college.
I lost it gaf. Tho with my beard and hair that person shall return
why is that slay?
Speaking of which...
Is it that hard to just look the other way/Stfu regarding religion? I think everyone learns that lesson the hard way in one form or another but geez... no one is oppressing your belief system. I haven't been to church in a full year now and it doesn't lead to a family shattering argument.
What DY said. Going by the majority of their posts if they sneeze and you said "God bless you", they would go apeshit.
i avoid religious based threads like the plague. im sure its the same song and dance in every thread.
It really is, but the kicker is they don't know how hypocritical they are.

Until today, I labelled myself an Apatheist, in that I didn't really care too much if God exists or not.
But now with the news of Bayonetta 2's cancellation alongside Timesplitters 4...God is dead. That's the final straw.
FUCK EVERYTHING.

The physical form of blasphemy
I nearly yelled, ''what the fuck" hella loud in my office. What theeeeeee fuuuuckkk. They cancelled Bayo 2?!
The game actually made a profit. Fucking Sega man. Can't believe I'll only have two action games I gave a fuck about this gen and they both came from Platinum.

Don't EVER say that, Beef. We have to keep hope alive.
Captain Blue said the world is in danger one last time. Viewtiful Joe will save us. He's a superhero.

Yup. I have to smile to look non-threatening, and generally go out of my way to appear happier.
It's in the UK as well. Last two weeks i've seen whole swathes of young females rocking that look.
I wonder who restarted it? As the way these girls are wearing these braces it's going to be a real shame when they get caught on something.

that was never a thing when i was a teen!
i just remember once middle school hit everybody couldnt wait to get braces.
myself included. and then i got them and the pain was hell.
i was fortunate though because i timed it pretty well.
i got them at the start of 7th grade and off in like the 2nd half of 8th grade year so they were gone by HS.
i pitied the people that still had them in HS.

I know that feeling
Their constant Shenmue trolling is what broke Himuro, he was never the same after.
Has freemufasa been kidnapped?
My beef is that they end up looking like the same evangelical religious nutbags that they hate. And based on that articles arguments, muslims should have by far the biggest right to be angry and outspoken, but I don't think you would ever see that go down on GAF.

Yeah, I never understand those debates. There's that old saying that from an outsider looking in perspective, they just see two idiots arguing over nothing.

the "evangelical religious nutbags" that atheists "hate" generally do things like use bombs, protest gay rights, try to pass off supernatural claims as facts (often in schools), attempt to limit women's rights, etc.
Is there an actual parallel you have in mind with these things? Or are you equating "snarky message board posters" with "evangelical religious nutbags"?
Lebron said:
discussing ideas that hold an incredible amount of influence over tons of human beings, how they behave, and how they view the world around them, and also has a strong influence on Black Culture (gotta stay on topic, heh) = arguing over nothing. Hmm.
The longer the thread the more it starts sounding petty.
Those are terrorists.
When I say evangelical religious nutbags, I mean those dudes that stop you in the street and ask you to pray to god or else you're going to hell. Or maybe that friend you have that keeps pushing you to go to church with them to eventually convert and when you say no they give you bullshit thinly veiled insults. Or they tell you you're stupid for not believing in God. The shit I see in GAF by many atheists in religious threads or things even hinting at God come across exactly the same. Thinly veiled personal insults(sometimes not thinly veiled at all), where if you don't take the atheist ideology as truth you are a dumbass who can't use reason. It's tiring and insulting, to try and force people to see shit your way when they just have a different perspective of life than you. I consider myself agnostic at best, but it generally leaves a bad taste in my mouth when anyone tries to force their ideologies down peoples throats, religious or not. It's pretty much why I stay away from religious threads in general. If they're not hurting anyone just let people live their life.
Of course criticisms on the systematic/structure of religion is fair game, but I find that many times on GAF it's usually goes beyond that into the personal realm, especially so once a thread starts going into the 3+pg range.
