Somehow this isn’t parody.
Who’s “they?” The vast swath of the eastern seaboard defined by western european immigrants like the Italians and Irish, the “fugeddaboudit” and “BAHSTAHN” guys that everyone thinks of when they think of New England cities? The west coast people known for wine exports, distinctive music and film cultures, drug culture, etc?
Southern culture is now largely defined by hollow rhetoric and hypocrisy. They want to be rednecks with big trucks but they whine about how much they have to tip the food slave who brings their DoorDash order. They talk constantly about Christian values and then indulge in hedonistic lives and go out drinking alcohol to excess and fornicating (which the Bible explicitly says will bar you from entering Heaven
)The best and most celebration worthy parts of southern culture almost entirely come from black people. Not whatever this shit is
Also thrse people would get the fuck beaten out of them for watching “removed littlr girl cartoons” by their peers if they actually interacted with their “southern culture”
It’s tragic, I was acquainted with a few of these types in high school and they spent all their days floating at the edge of normie cliques, silently rehearsing their fantasies of one day joining the military, instead of just letting go and joining me and the other abberants getting into shouting matches over who had misquoted Futurama.
How do fascist weebs even tell their moeblobs apart? Just looks like hair color swaps across their spank bank cliches.
A problem I’ve noticed too. For every good designed character like
you have these moeblobs that you cannot tell apart.This one is the tsundere. Here’s the yandere(s) that fight for senpai. This one is the obligatory blank-faced even younger coded one for the especially creepy. Put hair colors in a randomizer and you got a new show!
Good shows will have a lot of head and body shapes, but most of them don’t and it’s just the hair. IMO the reason so many of them have horns and tails and stuff is to make their silhouette more recognizable without potentially compromising the standard “pretty face” that most otaku demand.
FFXIV did that with Au Ra. They almost looked more interesting, as hinted at by Yugiri wearing a mask for so long, but the weebs got their way.
I think there are enough posivle combinations even when there is such a limited amount of traits you can vary that each character is unique?
What I said and what you said can be true at the same time, the same way that procedurally generated terrain can be technically unique in some specific part of it but still be bland.
Or NFTs. “Unique” doesn’t automatically mean good, creative, or interesting if it’s just a randomizer of cliches.
As long as they are unique you will de able to tell them apart if you see enough of them. This also aplies to procedually generated terrain.
I never said they werent bland i agree with you there. I think blandness is kind of the point. I see so much media trending in that direction. Its probably easier to market.
This also aplies to procedually generated terrain.
I don’t know what point you’re trying to make here. Something can be technically unique and still uninspired, bland, and repetitive because even its “unique” arrangement is just a sum of repetitive component parts, like all those “bored apes” NFTs.
I think blandness is kind of the point. I see so much media trending in that direction. Its probably easier to market.
It’s cheaper and the hogs still gobble it up, so it’s more profitable, yeah.
The point is that its easy to distinguish things once you are aquinted to it. So the weebs are not wierd in that particular sesnse. They are wierd for other reasons. I agree its bland but that does not necesarily make them hard to distinguish.
Id go further on the second point. More hogs are going tl eat a bland thing than a thing with character since the latter may be too much effort. Or it may appeal to very specific tastes.

I’m still not seeing where this invalidates anything I said about how lazy and bland and uncreative it is to swap waifu cliches with hair colors/styles. “Technically” unique waifus don’t really have any more creativity to them than a technically unique combination that results in a Bored Ape NFT.
It does not. Im commenting abou how you are surprised weebs are able to distingush them. Wich they should be as long as they are technichally unique. No matter how bland they are.
away down south in the land of traitors, rattlesnakes and alligators
Distinct recognizable culture such as slavery?
It’s really funny also to think that the northeast, midwest, or PNW don’t have distinct recognizable cultures. They’ve probably become less distinct now because they actually produced interesting culture, and not just truck nuts and racism.
and not just truck nuts and racism.
🤓 UMmm aktchually 🤓
Depending on who you believe the TRUE inventor of the truck nuts is, they’re from either San Bernardino CA or Rio Rancho NM
Tbh racism is just appropriating Boston culture as well.
Distinctly recognizable culture such as poverty merch and a Schizophrenic sense of patriotism.
America is just a very large cargo cult.
I live innawoods, my car is splattered with mud from getting it out of my driveway when it rained. Many of my friends growing up were deeply impoverished (rusty-ass trampolines, sun-bleached toys strewn over the yard, “ignore Uncle Jim, he won’t talk, he’s playin his online poker”, wife-beating happening in the other room stuff) and I had to go to all their horrible evangelical grifter churches when I slept over on Saturdays.
My point is that I’m just as if not more “southern” than the dorks like this guy and I’m a communist or some shit LMAO OWNED
Country ass
or not, “y’all” was desperately needed for the English language.Centuries ago English used to have “ye” for the second person plural pronoun, but I guess Anglo culture is fundamentally individualistic and makes even talking about stuff collectively an awkward experience.
Centuries ago English used to have “ye” for the second person plural pronoun
“ye” was just a written-shorthand version of “the” until people read it the way it looked retroactively.Yes and no. The ye in “ye olde shoppe” was “the” with the “thorn” character which looks kinda like a y if you write it fancy. The ye in “Hear ye, hear ye” was actually said as ye and was the second person plural.
Hear Youse or hear y’all sound odd still
I know it’s more complicated than that especially because centuries of “ye” said as “yeeee” established a new precedent anyway.
I just wanted an excuse to use the
emoji.
This is you’se erasure
I can smell the tobacco spit in this image
I will free the South from the racist Weebs

I did like how Far Cry 5 presented American culture
The only problem with this is that white southern culture sucks balls.
I tried to think of something clever to say to this but it melted my brain a little so I’m just gonna move on
The other half of the founding fathers who wanted to just do feudalism started a civil war then lost isn’t a culture, I’m sorry its just not if your culture dosent have a unified language, geography, religious/cultural and maybe the bare minimum is like 1000 years I don’t want to hear about it.
But you know what I’m not even gonna go their as their are problems in defining culture like I just did… the south dosent have a united BBQ culture let alone a full blown culture so get the fuck out of here.
The other half of the founding fathers who wanted to just do feudalism
Both did, it’s just one half wanted Roman style feudalism that hides behind the pretense of designated families competing for limited titles.
I always found the states early goverment, you have the liberal striver types but think the French went to far but then you got straight up Roman style slaver who treat their slaves worse then the romans. In my heart of hearts 💕 I believe the American revolution is what happens then a revolution is entirely made up of opportunistic elements, I dont even think they belive it was gonna last as long as it does.
With all the “new Rome” language part of me thinks you’re right. I’ve seen people talk about it as a bourgeois revolution, so there’s definitely some theory out there that backs up the other point.
