    Unfortunately there isn't a version of this without the spoiler filled intro vid. :/

     

    Still, great fucking ark. LET THE VOICE OF LUV TAKE YOU HIIIIIIIIIGHEEEER!

    Great Days is easily my favorite JoJo op song (and most people I talk to agree that it is a solid JoJo op), but I have this one goddamn friend who apparently thinks it's completely unfitting of the JoJo universe, and actually will go out of her way to tell you you have shit taste if you think Great Days is a good JoJo op. It actually pisses me off lol

    If she is just joking, she sure as hell doesn't know when a joke has gone too far

    Hello all! I just made an account here today after being a fan of Ross's content for many years. As evidenced by the username, I'm a fellow that really enjoys his music. I'm also somewhat of a computer geek. :)

     

    The name's Preston. I'm 21 years old and live in the U.S. in Minnesota. I came here in the hopes of meeting fellow fans of Ross's stuff and also perhaps meeting others that enjoy similar music.

    I enjoy similar music

    I'm wearing a Nightwish shirt as we speak

    ^That's kinda the point I was making all along. :/

    No offense to Ninja or anything but he isn't well known for being consistent.

     

    There's good jokes and bad jokes, just like there's good/bad food, movies, music, etc. The point is that they still remain what they are regardless of their timing, quality, and/or deliverance. What I hate are people who use the idea of a failed joke or something they don't find funny as a reason to put people down when they could just go about their day without making a scene. It's part of my strong distaste for the modern day Age of Outrage. No one seems to be able to just quietly dislike something and move onto something they do like. They gotta make sure everyone within a 2000 mile radius knows just how pissed they are over ultimately trivial bullshit.

     

    And yeah, I'd say some jokes aren't made with the intention of being funny in the first place. I often make jokes with little humor in them more out of desire to alleviate my annoyance with something in a less "spread the pain" manner. If anything, the reaction I'm looking for is a sympathetic "I know what you mean" chuckle.

     

    Also my favorite kind of humor is the kind that would make twitter and tumblr pop a blood vessel. What can I say, the shock value of "did they really just say that?" treats my humor nerve right. So you can imagine how annoying the "you secretly meant it, Actual Hitler" attitude gets. <_<

     

    Humor is entirely subjective and I won't argue against that, but if a joke succeeded more in making people feel uncomfortable than making people laugh, it HAS failed as a joke, and your audience has every right to call you out and complain. I won't say it's right to complain about a joke you don't understand or don't like, or complain about people who think things you find offensive are funny, but if you're going to tell a joke that can offend and probably will, you should be more than prepared to handle criticism for it. When you tell a joke on a controversial matter has little to no humor in it, it's automatically grounds to justify people arguing with you about it.

    I find it deliciously ironic that youtube channels that claim to promote free thinking and individualism can have such mindless fanbases.

     

    TAA, Sargon of Akkad, Sh0eonhead, Thunderfoot, Teal Deer, Bearing, Milo Y., Armored Skeptic

    Shame that a few of these channels actually are pretty OK, just this whole side of youtube will eat up anything that feeds in to their confirmation bias.

    I want to fill this "journalists" shoes with the most angular lego's and make him run 100 miles. How could anyone. ANYONE. be this ungodly stupid? "milk is now a symbol of white supremacy" what, did you microwave your head before you wrote this? Paint chips? Sniffing glue? Sharpie? All of the above?! What the hell do you have to do to render your brain so broken that you see a bunch of wannabe irl shitposters and actually take them seriously?

     

    I'm just so incredibly stupefied; just absolutely mystified by how fucking dumb this is. For the authors sake I hope to the high high heavens that this is satire and I'm the actual idiot here for thinking he's serious because if it's not, god save his soul because none of us can.

     

    .Mic is worse than Huffington Post tier, I'm actually 90% sure they're satire.

    I have a taunt idea for TF2, but requires a custom model. I can't model. I jump through hoops to find a model that works for what I want. I download it. It's in .obj format. SFM/Steam likes .mdl format. I search for a way to convert to .mdl format. From what I can tell, there's no easy way to do so, and all roads lead to outdated methods that no longer work. FML.

     

    You're pretty much using someone else's model for something you intend to send to Valve for marketing with I assume no permission from the original creator, which is not only scummy but also highly illegal and would never make it past workshop stages if anyone noticed.

    If you want to have any future or success in modeling or animation you really have to suck it up and learn.

     

    There are such things as Royalty Free models. Also there's such a thing as asking the owner, and giving the owner credit.

    And I already addressed that issue

    Frankly either way, if you're submitting something to valve with the intent of it being sold, it should be 100% original anyway.

    can't hear it through that accent i guess

    also can't be bothered to find lyrics on a band as obscure as ashbury heights

    My excuse is I listen to them too damn much. I may or may not know the entirety of that song by heart.

    I think the only song I know word for word is Penance since I've listened to that one for hours at a time on a near daily basis

    I was raised on distractions

    like a rhinoceros charging in to walls

    AND WHEN I THOUGHT OF YOU

    Wrong order D: (also it's "courted you" not "thought of you". :P
