Why Should I Care?

[Laddy]

What are some things that people obsess about that you just don't get?

Me: Homsetuck (which will be the new Iceglow of EoFF), dubstep, Mass Effect, TOMS shoes, Tyra Banks, yaoi, and Ron Paul.

Tumblr makes you a very bitter person. :(

[Pike]

Laddy you are my favorite person because the title of your thread reminded me of this

:love:

As for me, um... most of the stuff in your post, actually. Also a ton of games like DotA, Dark Souls etc.

Why do so many people obsess about their hair? Especially annoying when you can't grab someone's hair when you're bouncing.

[Jinx]

Wearing leggings instead of pants.

[Night Fury]

Laddy you are WRONG. Mass Effect is brilliant!

[Denmark]

would it be "cool" of me to say final fantasy

[Night Fury]

Hmm, anyway. I don't much care for this Harlem Shake nonsense.

[Loony BoB]

Most things to do with fashion.

Also, because I am a terrible, terrible person: Depressing things on the news. I get it, it's bad, I should care. But you know what? I want to live a happy life and if I spend all my time getting upset over the crap that exists in the world, I will spend all my time upset. So, sorry people dying around the world, but... *switches channel*

Designer anything. Designer anything. There are about three brands that I actually like because they fit me well or make products exclusively and so I'm loyal to them, but all of this smurfing Gucci Chanel D&G Tori Birch trout just makes me sick and I don't understand it. Babies. What prestigious school you've gone to that your parents paid for and most of the time, what you studied there. Handbags. Expensive handbags. Having a plethora of handbags.

I used to not get what the big deal about shoes was but I've begun collecting shoes in the past few months and now I'm a little bit addicted and running out of space to keep them.

I'm all for being entertained by someone acting stupid on the internet, but if it devolves to, "LOL LOOK AT THIS GUY HAVING AN INTEREST I DON'T APPROVE OF," that can get annoying.

First person shooters. They all seem the same to me. Other than Team Fortress 2 because hats and confetti.

[Mercen-X]

Shorty's opinion :p

Ouch!'s opinion :mwahaha:

Reality television (particularly Survivor)

[Shorty]

So you're into handbags, eh?

[Laddy]

Reality television (particularly Survivor)
You act like this show has been culturally relevant in the past 11 years.

[Mirage]

So why don't you like yaoi?

[Laddy]

It's overly girly-looking dudes in poorly-written and often downright abusive relationships.

[Mercen-X]

Frightening

Yes

My parents watch. I live in a cramped apartment with them. Only relevance required... until I can afford to move out.

I'm actually with Laddy on this one. I don't mind gay relationships or if you want to ship two male characters together in a relationship if you believe that they have that sort of chemistry, but Yaoi anime and manga in general is almost always abusive and heads down into rape territory.

A couple of Yaoi anime's I've watched the more dominate male basically puts the weaker male into uncomfortable sexual situations that would throw a real life person in jail. In one Yaoi the poor male was crying and feeling upset so the dominate male just basically threw the weaker male down and put his hand down inside pants and touched his " you know " and basically raped him. And then we are supposed to believe that this is romantic and passionate ??!

No, just no.

[Mirage]

Who's saying it has to be romantic and passionate? Some people just have rape fantasies and in yaoi, they can get that!

[Laddy]

Yaoi is written for straight women by straight women and represents little of what actual gay relationships are like. In the end, they tend to objectify and oversimplify gay relationships to a degree.

Yes, it's a fantasy. I get that, but it's not emphasized enough that it doesn't represent any healthy relationships.

EDIT: They aren't portrayed as rapist and victim, though. These relationships are often portrayed as a pair of star-crossed lovers and an ideal romance to aspire to.

[Night Fury]

You only need to read thecloudyday89's blog entries to see how rapey Yaoi is.

So much blood. Too much blood.

Halo, Call of Duty, Mass Effect, Borderlands, and Assassins Creed.

Oh, and new movies. If someone see's a movie and wont leave me alone about it, I just wanna punch them in the face. I mean, I didn't see it. Why would I care?

And thats all!

Halo, Call of Duty, Mass Effect, Borderlands, and Assassins Creed.

[Unbreakable Will]

Dammit Pike, I have to watch that movie again now.
Woohoohoohoohoo.

Duck Dynasty.

Also I just noticed Ranzt's name is now Pantz. :bigsmile:

[Clo]

Television shows in general. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND TELEVISION, MOST TELEVISION SHOWS ARE DRIVEL DUMBED DOWN AND UNIMAGINATIVE! I just cannot keep coming back on a weekly basis!

[Pike]

Oh man I swear it has been five years since I watched TV. Other than MLP.
