Imagine this. You're playing swingball with your crayon eater little cousin. You're giving him a serious ass kicking. He's starting to snivel because he's losing so hard. You're really giving it everything you've got and you're giving the entire family BBQ a spectacle on your swingball prowess.

Your little cousin is about to burst into tears from the feeling of failiure and suddenly your uncle comes over. "Right, I think it's time to eat.... Lets say... next point wins?"

Your little cousin is ecstatic. Finally after his pitifully weak performance he rejoices at finally having a chance. You still effortlessly kick his ass for the 19th time.

Your uncle puts his hands on his hips and say "lets call that a draw". He celebrates and meanwhile you're left to simmer alone with the feeling of injustice.

Your entire performance is discredited by someone else imposing their rules upon your game.

Does anyone else have this issue? Youtube keeps showing that little red bar under videos even though I don't ever remember watching said videos. What's even weirder is that all the videos its said ive watched (even though, again, i dont remember ever watching those videos) talk about dementia and Alzheimer's. Youtube really needs to fix this issue.

This is 100% true. There are so many people in the world that will never be known or taken seriously, simply due to the circumstances to which they were born. Though it is true that we have freedom over which path you take in life, no one chooses where they start, and who they start with.

There's a pathway that children are encouraged to take where we are told to have things to be passionate about, but of course, 99% of people will never make a living off of what they actually want to do because there's a limited amount of spots for professionals and other people have already gotten ahead of you before you were even born.

There are plenty of people who do have potential and talent, but they aren't born in the right spot, and no one ever encouraged them. And many people, especially creatives, who want to make something of themselves, are laughed off and dismissed as naive dreamers who can't ever make anything of themselves. They become Squidwards who have dreams and genuine talent, and they develop a bitter attitude due to how life treats them and are forced to remain in minimum wage to make ends meet. And as you get older, you learn to grin and bear it. This is mandatory. There is of course always a chance that things can get better, but for most people, having a basic job and a hobby is as good as it gets. Even having friends and support from family is something rare enough to appreciate.

The Solar Sands video titled "Doomed to Obscurity" is a video that I bring up when I discuss this with others.

Only a select few humans ever get to make something of themselves and monetize their passions, and they are celebrated during their lifetime. But for most people in the world, we live and die in obscurity, to be forgotten after hundreds of years. And all we can do is appreciate the time we have and who's around. For some, this is acceptable. For others, it's disheartening. In any case, I HATE IT.

Look at this garbage. Six fingers? Seriously? The animators got so incredibly lazy they just typed "old scientist" into AI program and didn't even bother to fix the hand before broadcasting this garbage to millions of people. This is pure, unadulterated laziness. AI is a cancer on art, created by soulless parasites, instead of real human work! Completely unwatchable.

("It's not AI, you're a fool fuuu" Please think with your head, this post is satire, don't write it to me anymore. Just use critical thinking. Please)

This scene is so funny bc he looks so proud saying "can't get no better" as if he didn't just create the worst tacos I had ever seen in my life. Like what's with the comical single piece of lettuce? Who adds olives to their tacos?? Why did he add salsa on everything but the damn food?? Whole time they're wondering why their business is failing like bro take a hint 💀

I work as a 911 operator and almost every month there’s about four or five people who think it’s funny to go prank call our line by trying to order a pizza. I don’t know how this is considered “funny” at all. All of them seem to come in with the same schtick; they’re on the verge of tears, they only answer with either “yes” or “no”, and their “friends” are in the background screaming at them angrily. It’s all so tiresome. I have actual emergencies to deal with like domestic abuse, leave me alone. Go waste your time doing something else.

Ok let's get this out of the way first.

Elon is a morally objectionable person who does horrible things with money that he got from doing other horrible things. I do not care for him.

But

Why does that make it ok to mock his body. Like wtf, I though we were adults and agreed that bullying someone because they look different is bad.

So I have spine problems and a wider ribcage and in a lot of angles I look very similar to him. I am neutral about my body and have accepted it's just how I am but it sure does suck seeing people who tell me that there is nothing wrong with what I look like turn around and mock someone else because they feel it's justified.

I'm not going to say "we should be better than that" or anything but just know it also throws strays at others.

And for Christsake there are billions of other things to make fun of him for that he earned and chose. Are you really dying to tell peope that you think people like him (and me) are ugly? If so I suggest finding something else to care about, it's kinda sad if you think about it.

First, This art style ANGERS me for some reason, It looks like those rage comics and Big mouth had a baby, And the baby was WORSE than BOTH of them.

Second, This Joke Sucks. It feels like a Modern Family Guy scene. It’s just SO bland for some reason.

Third, This looks like it has no Effort put into it at all. I’d rather Look at The Frank Miller DC “Worlds Finest“ Cover than this. At least the Cover looks Funny.

In conclusion, I Hate Pizza Cake and her Slop Comics

[Edit: I made this post just because I didnt like her comics and how they are the “best” posts on r/comics but people got very mad at this post. What she said is true but she makes in such an annoying way that it just makes me not like the comic. Now she can make good comics but these ones really aren’t worthy of all these upvotes. I know r/comics absolutely glazes her but I don’t care. I think Elon Musk is a bum, and Nazis suck. I didn’t know that tons of people made posts like this and I just wanted to say some random thing that I thought was annoying.]

it genuinely pisses me off

no, i dont wanna download your shitty app, i just want to see this one thing that i was given a link to, and now its hard to view things without a popup telling me to get the app.

deadass cant scroll even a little without being app-blocked. one of the few reasons i still use reddit is because it doesnt have the feature where you HAVE to use the app for it to be functional.

whats the point of even having a website if the website is just to peddle the app??

discord also has this problem, the web version is useable it just so shitty for mobile web browsers (the mobile app also sucks dont get me wrong) but at least you can use it, which i feel like should be the bare minimum if you have a web page.

I feel like its been a trend but I'm so sick of people diagnosing characters or other people with ADHD, autism, neurodivergent, OCD, "in the spectrum" etc. despite not being introduced as such irks me so much. People making light of these conditions for the most basic human actions or experience is so tiresome.

One time I had a conversation about common things people do for no reason. I shared something like avoiding lines on tiled floor or else the world ends. "Do you have OCD?" No I dont, brah.

A person showing slight traces of being whimsical? Oh must be this or that disorder.

Character shows childish inattentiveness? Blah blah its ADHD.

People be thinking they are qualified to diagnose someone with just seeing one set of action and instantly jump to conclusion.

Am I the only one who really finds this thing weird?

I feel like I needed to make it clear, its fine to have headcanons. Whats insane is when people go into arguments because they want to push their headcanons into canon talks and citing "proofs" which is basically a common human personality trait. Its called headcanon for a reason.

Not hating on the actors just the widespread usage of botox. It inihibits their acting because it paralyzes their face. It looks unnatural and its btw an extremely potent poison. Its supposed to make them look younger but it just blows up the facial features which looks even worse. I cannot understand why they all even use it. Is it just toxic hollywood culture?

No because genuinely why the hell can a deep crimson somehow look like periwinkle purple under the right lighting and conditions 😔😭

I'm no artist, but I've been enjoying making posters for my school works and club, as well as having artist friends who share the sentiment. IT'S SO IRRITATING that a color can look perfect on its own, but when you put it all together it looks off until you can find a color that produces what you're trying to find.

Bottom line, I hate that things don't look as you perceive.

Lately, I've been seeing this shit on Pinterest all the time. No way someone draws something like this and thinks "I made a good ahh design! People gonna love it!"

I find it quite fatphobic, even, cuz NO, chubby people aint look like that. No one naturally does 😭

edit: I'm NOT saying that you can't draw like that or that it's not curvy or that its not sexy or whatever ! The point of the post is that it pisses me off when the authors of such characters call them "chubby" when they're clearly not.

I've been seeing similar kinds of posts for a long time and I hate it. It paints my country as some sort of fantasy promised land free from all the people they hate. I hate it even more since we Poles (and slavs in general) were considered subhuman not even a hundred years ago, and now these racists use us as some sort of gotcha.

Also, those kind of posts often sexualise women from my country in a nasty way, comments are always full of dudes saying something like "time to start learning Polish to get a Polish wife".

Also, funny hypocrisy. They hate immigrants, but want to migrate to a different country, because it's... free from immigrants? Which is not true, there are immigrants from all around the world in Poland, for example have a sizeable vietnamese population.

On one hand, I agree that sexualizing a female character is wrong and that the industry has a problem.

But on the other hand, I don't understand the double standard when the character is queer—or, even worse, when "fans" take a character, slap a queer label on them, and suddenly it's okay for them to be sexualized.

The two clearest examples of this are Bayonetta and Blackcat.

I’d like someone to explain where I’m wrong, or if I’m not the only one who thinks this way.

And just in case I'm a gay cis male if it means something

for God's sake, Pocoyo and Ozzy Fox aren't Ai Slop.

The rigs were crafted by humans, the storylines and plots were written by humans, the characters were voiced by humans, the songs and soundtracks were composed by humans, the thumbnails and videos were edited BY HUMANS. They're only using an ai system THEY MADE to that lets the rigs follow their animation drafts.

They animate in 2D, then the rigs follow the 2D animations, creating 3D animations.

This isn't the classic case of "Type a Prompt"

THEY'RE STILL ANIMATING THE RIGS!

I have made a mediocre visual representation of what I meant.

Idk, reddit is just weak for that. Why can't i see how badly are people getting flamed in their own posts? It's similar to the removal of dislike button on youtube, just pointless. i dont understand the reason those things should be hidden from everyone else

I genuinely hate One Piece character designs.

What’s most impressive is how wildly inconsistent the designs are in this series, going from one extreme to the other.

A character’s design can be legendary, like Xebec’s, or absolutely ridiculous, like Franky’s.

But the overwhelming majority of them are pretty bad. Like, really fucking bad.

the art is beautiful, and there’s nothing wrong with depicting a lot of these nonhuman characters as white, especially since a lot of them are functionally raceless and can be anything, but there’s something about defaulting to white + hot, that i find so insanely corny. it’s the way they don’t try to do anything remotely unique or interesting with the design either. like just a plain shirt and jeans?? that’s all you could think of??

it’s the way ppl get so angry when u depict them as black/brown, or maybe ugly/weird-looking too that i find so irritating as well.

This comment has many forms

"Refreshments for everyone that ran to the comments"

"Popcorn for the people just scrolling through the comments"

"Sit back and grab a snack while looking at these crazy replies" followed by an arrow pointing to the like button.

I can't stand this type of reply. Its almost exclusively posted under divisive topics meant to create a discussion, or posts asking people about personal events, usually unhinged ones. It adds literally nothing to the conversation. It's the most obvious, lazy and unfunny form of begging for likes I can imagine. But for some reason people still upvote and like this stuff.

I think its meant to represent the "neutral" people, those who have nothing to add, as a way of saying "hey, I too am only reading these comments and wont add anything". Great, the post was SPECIFICALLY asking for people who the topic APPLIES TO to comment.

I could maybe excuse someone finding this "funny", (I actually don't understand what emotion this would invoke for someone to interact in the first place, but I digress), if you've never seen anything similar before. But this type of reply isn't new. TikTok of all places, the graveyard where everything overused goes to have the last but of humor sucked out, was commenting stuff like this years ago.

This is just "1 like equals 1 blank" wrapped in a quirky banner.

This is my second time posting here and I just wanted to say something about this. I've seen so many posts about Psychrolutes on various social media platforms about them being ugly and terrifying. Usually using the version above and to be honest it really irks me. Not only because one they have been teared out from their homes. Due to one of the biggest issues of climate change mass fishing.

Plus they never deserved it or many sea animals in fact and as a biology major the reality of this situation is heartbreaking to me and should be to so many others. Unpopular opinion the fact that people just assumed they looked like this without doing any research whatsoever reflects the current state of our world! It is personally akin to those who say climate change is not real. Or in this case the animal cruelty is not present.

Instead of being kept in those deep zones referred to as the Twilight Zones. Scientists pull them up sometimes to study as well but it's very immoral in my opinion and we should just develop the technology for deeper depths. Like a Deep-Sea towed vehicles or Deep-Sea Towed platforms something! Even drones could work, I know these methods are not anywhere near perfect for experimentation; but I would rather them to just find a way to make a deep sea lab or something I am not sure. All I know is science usually always prevails so for now leave these poor fish alone.

Edit:When Psychrolutes are pulled from their natural habitats their tissues decompress from the lack of pressure and cave in on themselves creating what we all know as a "blob fish."

Edit 2: Someone pointed out it is Marcidus, Psychrolutes is the genus name, they are definitely correct I just preferred Psychrolutes. Though you can call them whatever they go by anyways besides "blob fish."

Edit 3: It was* in unimaginable pain y'all I did not make the image but yeah if we are going to get technical.

im saying "theory" because a theory is "a scientifically acceptable or plausible general principle or body of principles based on data and offered to explain phenomena", and there is literally ZERO good proof for this theory, like are you seriously telling me there are multiple horse-es just running around?? if that was true why would they all be named horse? dont you think theyd all also have a different name? are they in like a cult or something where everyone is named horse?? this is so ridiculous

and even if i entertain the idea that there is somehow more than one horse, it would at MOST be 2-3, because IVE only seen horse in 3 places at once at most in my life (one of them was just the back half and one was the front half and the rest wasnt visible to me so its probably just a really long horse), and the fact that google claims there are 60.8 MILLION horse-es in the world is insane

(i know this is from the onion but some people actually believe this)

As a Black girl I never noticed this until a couple of days/ days ago, tbh they could've choosen messy hair or tangled hair as a alternative since it would make more sense. I loved barbie life in the dreamhouse when i was younger and still do, but they could've choosen tangled hair. It feels like its saying "afro = bad". Now that i just noticed it, it feels so weird and texturist to me (i might have worded it weirdly)

The novel describes several times that she is an overweight girl, and this matters because it provides more context to why the bullies go after her the way she does rather than just her sheltered upbringing. It gives even more context to why Carrie feels singled out compared to the other girls and adds more tragedy to her self-loathing. The specific reason it’s pig blood that gets doused over her at prom (a detail every adaptation has remembered) is it’s another sick jab at her appearance.

Do I think any of the actresses who have played Carrie White failed horribly? Not really. But I also think after 50 years and so many different creators working on adapting it it’s weird this one pretty obvious detail is ignored still.

It shouldn't pmo so easily but like i have saw so many movies with those stupid drawings that look so unnatural for a kid to draw... Like holy, a kid wouldnt do it that detailed!!!!
I mean how hard is it to get a kid to do it, instead of hiring actual artists that can't clearly replicate a child's style of drawing
