Subjectively false and objectively unfalsifiable.

It's maybe a liiiittle racist. "Rice krispies" from burning Asians with nuclear fire? Am I reading too much into this?

It's only racist if you're racist.

When I read it I thought Frost meant that the Nukes 'Krispied' the rice paddies.

:< I'm just able to think from multiple perspectives at the same time. Probably reading too much into it, then.

I'm going to be honest, I did read it this way. Since, y'know, they dropped the bombs on cities not rice paddies.

Eh, I'm not Japanese.

Let's be honest, it's far from the most tasteless and off-color joke I've made.

Didn't really bother me.

[Frost]

Bothered a few people, it seems. The fact that my general lack of empathy and predisposition towards bleak, dark humor has been long-established notwithstanding.

If the person in the upper left is a lady and she's not wearing a shirt doesn't that make the comic NSFW and against the rules?

[Frost]

Her gender may be a woman, but her sex is implicitly male, considering the content of the comic. 

And I struggle to justify the presence of black dots on a peach-colored rectangle being considered graphic nudity

[Scienza]

Nudity, in and of itself, is not sexual or pornographic content.

While I'd rather that not lead people to start debating the differences between art and pornography, I think it's clear-enough you'd have to have quite a hair-trigger to get off to two little black dots.

I wasn't serious, Just pointing out what at least appears to be a double standard.

[Vinylshadow]

police not using sync signal fires anymore

voice to text recognition at its finest, everyone


but on the bright side, there's always a possibility that it could happen

Inb4 "It talks about men, and the presence of men is sexist"

[Vinylshadow]

isn't that the feminist standpoint?

[Guest]

*Snip*

Fair enough. If you're saying tasteful nudes are allowed I can get behind that.

[Frost]

On a lighter note...

[Vinylshadow]

damn those would have been some good movies

...yeah, I don't get it.

In 22 Jump street, the very white main character attempts to blend in among Hispanic gangsters by saying "My name Jeff" in that accent. In this context, the unexpected reference in place of the identification as Spider-Man is intended to be a humorous juxtaposition.

As long as it doesn't have long unskippable cutscenes, sure

[Guest]

You do know that they'd alread done that on the PS2 years ago, right?

[Tytan]

You know how I can tell Phantom Pain is gonna be good?

Because it's got a sense of humor.

Just look at those fucking balloon retrieval things. That motherfucker who was kidnapped said fucking 'Weeee!' when he was picked up.

And the puppy. That shit's just adorable.

Kojima put a lot of love into this.

There is a video of the horse pooping in the middle of a road, then a jeep hitting the crap and spinning out with Snake then proceeding to fulton recovery the jeep and the two knocked out soldiers inside.

Here's the video. It's about five minutes in and it's great.

There's a lot of games that try to pull off having a 'sense of humor'

Some fall flat, some try too hard and some pull it off reasonably well

And yet there are people that still find them hilarious regardless of what happens

[Frost]

I deeply enjoyed Saint's Row's mix of absurdism with surrealism. The mix of wit and gleeful sociopathy from virtually every character is but icing on the cake. 

In unrelated news, that awkward moment when you ( an E-3) are a better team leader and generally outperform the E-4 who's next in the running for a team leader spot.....

[Vinylshadow]

And your superiors aren't paying attention?

That's life for you. Here's hoping they come to their senses and pick someone competent.

So, someone apparently tried to gas a furry convention.

Not so much gas as dumped chlorine powder.
