Hey Aron.

You're an elitist idiot.

End.

We here like cartoons. We don't care where they are from, or who made them, or what style they are in, as long as they are QUALITY. As long as they were made WELL. To deny that Teen Titans is made with quality is to deny art. Not art in the Picasso or Da Vinci sense, but art none the less.

We here at the Infolink are not denying anything, we are not wannabe anything. We just like cartoons.

And if you're going to be an animation bigot about it, then we don't like you.

Yes, bigot.

Don't worry Nobu, I'll handle this before ol' locky gets here.

This should take care of the problem.




MOD EDIT: CounterParadox took out the image here on the grounds that AngelHedgie does not warrant such an image.

Bah, I posted first. Ok, fine i'll save it for another post down lower.

Aron, why don't you do everyone a favor and go fuck off. Because we don't appreciate little kids pissing in the pool from the diving board because they think they're shit hot. (And do yourself a favor - go buy The Elements of Style and read it before you embarass yourself further.)

A lot of us dislike the hardcore anime fandom because it's become a fetid pool of hypocrisy. A fandom that demands that anime be given more exposure and respect in the US while at the same time bitches when popular series are picked up by US distributors for commercial release. A fandom that demands a level of purity that doesn't even fucking exist anywhere. A fandom that blatantly justifies theft by saying that the industry wouldn't even exist without them. A fandom who is blind to the bad in their favorite titles. I could go on and on, but the fact is that you and your ilk are so fucking self-centered that you can't even consider that yes, there is a fucking world around you, and it doesn't play by your rules, and that maybe it has problems with things because of well-thought, principled stances and NOT kneejerk responses. I'm not a "wannabe", because there is no fucking way on God's green earth that I would ever WANT to be like you.

As for the word "otaku", allow me to explain to you why I find how anime fans in the US use it is offensive - in Japan, someone who is an otaku isn't just a fan, he or she is someone who is suffering from mental illness that is expressed in an unhealthy attachment to some hobby. As a person who has spent the majority of my adult life struggling with mental illness, to see American fans turning such a term into a badge of honor is sickening and cheapening, to say the least.

And as conterparadox has pointed out, most of us here are animation fans. That means that we enjoy and admire the talent and skill of Avery, Jones, Clampett, and such as much as that of Miyazaki, Anno, Tomino, et al. We understand how the different schools of animation from all over the world have interacted and changed each other. In short, we take a broad, open-minded view of animation that seeks out what is best, as opposed to your kind, who seem to think that the only good animation is that which comes with a "Made in Japan" sticker on it.

We're not defending a series here - we're defending a rich, nuanced, and historied artform that you and your ilk want to deface with your petty little brush. Go away, little man - your kind are not welcome here.

[/soapbox]

Edit: Gee, thanks, Spanky.

Amen Angel. Amen. But I never knew you were like that... Wink

Hey Aron- respect my cultural heritage or we're going to have problems. Self-proclaimed "otaku" can also be described as "culture-destroying bastards", but most of us are nicer. Lighten up dude.

Why on Earth would we lock this? Wink
Although I think you should let me edit your post, unless that's how you truly feel about AH.
:edit: Nevermind, CP took care of it.

pfffftt

panzy. Oh well, I have ways of tracking down the nubs, w/ or w/o an IP. Anyways, before someone else can add a post under this one (I'm watching you angel), i'll go ahead and repost the insult pic and therefore end the argument before the tard child returns.

Aron, i cant believe u dude!
U had a good topic thought out but it seems to b u put it in the wrong place! Dude, most of us here just arent into anime like u r. We like other shows as well. I may not b a teen titans fan but that doesnt mean i hate it. I just turn off my tv or watch something else. If your going to bad mouth it, then do it on your crappy blog page! (dont worry ppl. i know this guy personally! ill beat his ass at school tomorrow!)

However; i am astonished to c how far this topic went!
But alot of it was mainly harsh, which is something i wasnt really expecting
Aron, u shouldnt bitch about every little thing that someone says so yea it is ur fault! But u all shouldnt get pissed by a noob shouting his opinion. Very un-fan like indeed. But im not here to criticize anyone cause im a fan myself. But Aron, word to the wise, dont ever make another topic that shows hate cause u wont last in the real world at this rate dude!

TOONAMI RULZ!!!!!!!!!!! Proud Supporter Very Happy

Just thank GFPaperboy this time. His timing may have been off a few days and his target may have changed, but I say it was funny both times.

How did he predict the next poster would be that way? Or was he shooting from the hip again...

I move that some kind of language filter be installed- one that would change single "R's" "C's" and "U's" into their correct forms. This would contribute greatly to the clarity of many posts.

EDIT: And this filter would also remove the word "like" when it was used in the wrong context.
