wasn't that show on when shit like "fat guy stuck in internet" was coming out
Im watching metalocalpyse now
saul of the molemen
all that crap
all shit that just is not Darkplace
I wish I could watch Darkplace, but they lost the license
so good
I forgot about cool the dethklok aethetic was, I havent seen this show in 6 years, and I havent seen the band in 10 years
Murderface is such an epic name
these are the people whose shows fostered the culture that ruined adult swim
had a bunch of women writers
If I ever start a meme band I might call it PICKLES COMBOVER
xavier was the last good animated, MDE was the last good real
There's the paradox about getting old and suddenly thinking everything new sucks, but the 'everything new' actually legit sucks by rule
It's diluted and softened while disavowing the better shit its derived from
looking backward about anything ever is racist
it's what happens when you don't gatekeep
The tastemakers have no taste
They don't make anything
that's the function of the company
the originals just had an idea and wanted to fucking do something
then every shithead art student who thinks they're clever because they studied the greats and got an ass pat from a college they paid to do so tries to emulate it in their own stupid quirky way
like i said, adult swim got to a point where nobody involved understood or bothered trying to understand what it was that made certain shows on their channel a hit and instead just rode the momentum of the hit
they don't get what's happening when a show does well and just presuppose that it did well because it's on adult swim
and they're also on adult swim
ergo they also deserve to do well
adult swim became basically an ego-laundering scheme
> their own stupid quirky way
200% the inspiration of negative xp lyrics
@PCENGINEDUO the worst part about *that point* is its lack of originality as the music, movie, tv, comic, video game, tabletop, pro and college sports, motorsports and x-games industries all seem to be serving up the same dish. All sizzle no steak
It's like everywhere I look I see a billboard for the same thing
insularity will always result in curdling
I see a lot of people complain how fractured society is but have you ever seen such sameness?
culture's a different kettle of fish
when the culture has systems in place to disallow anything that reflects the society it's woven into, the culture has failed
You can say that again
but now we have one that explicitly gets its funding wearing the clothes of the exception
the entirety of your culture can't be "outsiders"
your entire culture can't be predicated on the idea of 'rebellion'
