Should I roll with the Viola Desmond avatar for BHM or should I go with Sam Jackson from Unbreakable

Some of us are doing the previously planed Sam Jack avi..others seem to be doing their own thing. Up to you, really. Guessing this'll be my last time, since folks can't even be bothered..

I decided I'd save the Viola for later. I like my Treasure Master avatar, but I might have to switch it up
 
White dudes really love having martyr complexes. Even if it means having to deify a show about fecal matter.

It's a god damn show with a talking towel that smokes weed. I don't get what about it makes people lose their minds when you have the audacity to call the creators out on getting old and losing touch.

Classic case of "Don't criticize that thing I like" syndrome. South Park, Street Fighter, Switc..wait a minute. Why all them shits start with the letter S? lol

Gonna add "South Park" to the list of shit you can't criticize without people losing their damn minds.

Well I don't know about what's going in that thread, but add me in the group that sees where they're coming from I guess. From South Park to shows like Veep, I told myself I wouldn't be surprised if they really meant what they said when they kept saying it's just getting harder and harder to top the insanity that is Trump in real life. Now in South Park's case, I'd still try my best, since they have a show that is known for making fun of literally everything, so it's pretty silly to call it quits on this. But if they don't see it as being worth it, or don't want to risk further normalizing his behavior, then whatever I guess...

All that being said, people who take the messages from South Park seriously are... humorous, to put it lightly. Every time I hear the whole douche vs turd sandwich thing for example, I visibly get annoyed.

South Park bought itself a few extra years by convincing people that it had a worthwhile political point of view. But really the shit is trash, and has been for a while.

It occupies the same niche as Jon Stewart and the Daily Show. We're political and want to be taken seriously until you criticize us for our lazy and/or inconsistent political opinions and then WHOA WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU WE'RE JUST COMEDY!!!

Speaking of...

Chris Brown is stunting on his Insta saying that the fight with Soulja Boy is still on and the date will be announced soon.

Good, just give me enough time to plan an appropriate hood gathering. But I am HERE. 4. IT.

See that's the thing. I ain't about to sing the praises of the depth of a show where they had Brittany Spears blow her brains out and shamble around as a headless corpse for 20 minutes as some commentary on celebrity and papparazo.

But if you're gonna make your show go from an absurdist, almost farcical comedy into a political commentary, then you can't just run away from Trump because it's "too easy" or "nah he's too funny in real life (yeah, haha at all those Muslims being deported that sure is hysterical).

Don't run away from that. Own that the creators of the thing you like just bitched out. It's okay to still like something and know A) what it became later is fucking garbage B) it's creators long since lost touch with what's topical and enjoyable and C) are acting cowardly by choosing to just blanket ignore Trump and his horrible BS because "well we did that already".

Just own your fuckery.

I mean lets kick the ballistics, South Park isn't even good comedy unless you are a 13. They are tired and played out. Their format of shitting out an episode a week means they don't really give any thought to what they doing.

They have had Orgasmo(remember that?), Book of Mormon, and South Park. Damn near 20 years and that is their creative output.

The only thing that ever stayed with me from South Park was the Michael Jackson episode 'cause of cops being confused about MJ not looking Black. Basically took that joke and always use it about myself

So after reading the roundtable discussion that Jessica Williams, Selma Hayek, and many other women had, I may or may not be writing my poem about the plight of the Black Woman and have one of my friends read it and make sure it's straight

And by may or may not I mean definitely because people tend to forget how much shit black women go through
