@randomnonameguy @blacModerate @blacknredtext Yeah but he'd be on the same level as them. Like when he was a little the cameras were a lot more obvious. They only really cracked down on the secrecy once he was old enough to pay attention and start noticing things.
English
@chippel @blacModerate @blacknredtext ok, but "they wouldn't risk letting a kid get close to him"? makes no sense, when they already did that for his entire childhood
English
when I was a kid I never understood why so many cartoons portrayed dodgeball as an awful thing, dodgeball kicked ass
English
@kenshirotism Like obviously it's a bit he's totally fine losing to a male hamster but a female hamster? Totally inconceivable.
English
Lot of stories with Randy feel like he's fucking with people, and the joke is they don't know if he's actually being serious or not.
Jane Altoids@staticbluebat
Weird Al has talked about how Randy Savage didn't want to do this scene until he was assured the hamster he was losing to wasn't a girl hamster
English
@randomnonameguy @blacModerate @blacknredtext Yeah but they're not gonna keep the school running with him not there. The buildings only have people in them if he's going to be around there. So the kids on set would be limited.
English
@chippel @blacModerate @blacknredtext He grew up in there. He went to "school" and interacted with lots of kids.

@RolloFinnback @GrahamSig You clearly no nothing about censorship within the USA
English
@chippel @GrahamSig The 90s was the end of the expansion? Allllllllllright lmao
English
Maybe the funniest post someone who worked on Doom has ever made
Sandy Petersen 🪔@SandyofCthulhu
I really like that this is happening now.
English
@RolloFinnback @day_jilla @GrahamSig Yes. How are you not understanding how time time works. That's what *then* was like. This is what *now* is like.
English
@chippel @day_jilla @GrahamSig Okay so to be clear the reason why the sentence Sandy wrote makes sense is because he was thinking of GI Joe, Welcome Back Kotter, and the ESRB?
English
@RolloFinnback @GrahamSig Holy shit you people are fucking illiterate. The 90s was the end of the regulating bodies expansion and the beginning of the decline. 2010's is when they were all but entirely done.
English
@chippel @GrahamSig So when you said the 90s is when the change started you meant 2010?
English
@RolloFinnback @GrahamSig Yes retard he *has* to because that's how "now" works.
ALF and Boy Meets World was *then.* Used to be. The past.
We don't live in the fucking past, retard. We live in the present. The *NOW*.
English
@chippel @GrahamSig You think Sandy was thinking about GI Joe and Welcome Back Kotter and thats why the "now" in his sentence makes sense to you?
English
@day_jilla @RolloFinnback @GrahamSig The 90's is when the ball started rolling. 2010, the mordern digital age, is what destroyed the regulating bodies ability to control what gets sold and how well.
English
@chippel @RolloFinnback @GrahamSig You said the change started in the 90's - can't even remember your own bullshit from mere hours ago
English
@RolloFinnback @GrahamSig Now means *now.* Within the past decade. 2010 is when independent filmmaking and game production became not only viable but the gold standard of quality.
English
@chippel @GrahamSig But you said the "now" referred to the 90s. Right?
English
@RolloFinnback @GrahamSig Holy shit it's *all* television and film and games. He's talking about everything.
Did you not watch television in the 80's? There was no sex or violence allowed on television. Look at what shows were popular. You think fuckers were getting smoked on Welcome Back Kotter?
English
@chippel @GrahamSig Okay so not "entertainment as a whole" so much as like, children's cartoons? You think Sandy was thinking about GI Joe and the Carebears and thats why "now" in his sentence makes sense to you?
English
@RolloFinnback @GrahamSig Because now, in the digital age, the regulatory bodies of at least the US are totally powerless.
How are you this willingly obtuse?
English
@chippel @GrahamSig The ESRB that was formed in the 90s? I thought that's when the "now" in "I'm glad this is happening now" started. This seems confused and disparate.
English
@chippel @GrahamSig Can you name some examples? What was the preachy moralism in Nintendo games? I think it's weird you went so vague and general. What was the preachy moralism of 70-80s movies? Death Wish?
Feels like an incredible stretch to try and make sense of Sandy's really silly tweet.
English
@RolloFinnback @GrahamSig I'm talking about entertainment in general but since you want to talk about games; anything involving Nintendo.
Remember; Nintendo sided with censors and pushed for the foundation of the USRB to strangle out competition with excessive regulation.
English
@chippel @GrahamSig What? Back when? What games are you thinking of?
English
@SandyofCthulhu I used to have a copy of their Sugar 'n Spice publication from the 70's but I sold it to collector from Florida in 2018.

In the 1950s, the amazing body horror story The Fly, which led to 5 different films, was published in Playboy. They really did have articles and stories and literature back in the day before porn became so accessible Playboy became superfluous.
No I didn't read Playboy. But I sometimes saw the articles and stories. reprinted.

"What kind of man stares at pornography in public?" Hef really tried to create his own alternate reality, didn't he?
English
@Alonso_GD That's not at a 35 degree, retard. And you can't fit a combine on those small rows. Fucking thing about it for a second. Why aren't there any crops growing there now?
English
“You can’t grow crops in a 35 degree slope!”
Indigenous people 500 years ago:

Activist: "The water usage for beef is obscene. Thousands of litres per kilogram." Farmer: "That's rainfall." Activist: "What?" Farmer: "The figure includes all the rain that falls on the pasture. The cows drink from the stream. The rain falls whether there's a cow here or not." Activist: "It's still water consumption." Farmer: "Should I stop the rain falling on my field?" Activist: "Grow crops instead. More efficient." Farmer: "This is a 35-degree slope in the Welsh hills. Show me the crop." Activist: "Technology..." Farmer: "To make tractors climb mountains?" Activist: "There must be a solution." Farmer: "There is. It's called a cow." Activist: [checks phone]
