This little girl is holding a LEGO set. The LEGOs are not pink or “made for girls.” She isn’t even wearing pink. The copy is about “younger children” who “build for fun.” Not just “girls” who build. ALL KIDS.In an age when little girls and boys are treated as though they are two entirely different species by toy marketers, this 1981 ad for LEGO -- one of our favorite images ever -- issues an important reminder.

Yeah. Or just wait several years and pretend nothing happened.
Commented on StormClaymore's wall
I responded to him as well, but I closed the tab and couldn't recover the comment.
I'm not lazy enough to respond to a quick comment. But I'll guilt snowball for 3 months on a thoughtful comment.

I have no idea how you came to follow me
I think most people would think I am dead.
I don't mind, mind you. Just saw the notification and thought "Well, that must have been a mistake."
Added a video to You Cheated Not Only the Game, But Yourself.
WayForward hasn't put out any other info, but I love the art style in the image.

Posted in Persona 5 The Royal revealed. Features new character in trailer
Persona 4 shoehorned added in another party member and added a few months of playtime during the game. Persona 3 FES (in America) contains the main story and then a decent-sized epilogue with an entirely new story. Each game has a few other smaller additions like more places and options to explore, trips, music, Personas, and such.
l would imagine this is going to be something in the middle. The main story adds a new character to consider, but it will likely be executed better than P4 Golden (that said, I don't think fans particularly enjoyed the P3 epilogue or the new character in P4 Golden.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who saw canon death.
Thanks, and oh, dear Lord.
February 2012.
I'm not new by any means. I'm just largely inactive. But if I see a spam thread or if someone messages me about an NC bit of media, I'll nuke them. Pokémon alway draws me out of hiding though.

If you mean the obligatory Pikachu clone, there's no way to guess outside of typing, but I'll say something rarely/never done.
So an electric/dark, mischievous hedgehog. Gets Night Slash and Nuzzle. Oh, it doesn't evolve. Also, it's not viable.

Here's the new trailer for Gen VIII of Pokémon. I'd love to analyze it, but I don't have a ton of time outside of hoping people will start to get hyped about playing Pokémon again and not create new threads about it.
I like all three of the starters. I don't love any of them, but I like all three. They lack character in the physical design, but they're all cute to me.
I very much like Pokémon England(?) It looks cool. I get Sinnoh vibes from it.

Direct all of your baseless predictions here, but if it doesn't include "Pokémon: Let's Go, Dunsparce!" it's not worth anyone's time.
Did you do this again?!
Did I forget to respond again?!
Happy January?!

Posted in If you could bring back one banned/deactivated user, who would it be and why?
I talked to the admins about unbanning Lisa.
Why would you do that.
If I remember correctly, it felt more like a "Eh, this is too much trouble" in general less than a bannable offense. Value was lost, but value was gained.
…wait, what is this site? How did I get back here?
This confuses my feelings.

Posted in Pokemon Co. confirms Pokemon Yellow remakes for Switch releasing November 16, Gen VIII titles coming in 2019, and a new Pokemon mobile game
We could keep this here in its own thread if it's big enough on its own. It's hard to say since it was just announced.
Commented on Juicydeath1025's wall
Somewhat active, sure. I'm always lurking, but I'm not nearly as active as I once was.
…as you might be able to tell with my delayed response. I don't check my wall very often.
And actually, I'm the "no fun" mod. So don't let me fool you.

Posted in Infinity War Thread (Yes, with spoilers included)
Moving Images would be best, and Comics would be more suitable than Video Games.
I didn't see anyone say why it's here, so I'll move it back in case I missed the reasoning.
To contriboot, I've seen all of the MCU movies since Iron Man. Fortunately for me, I didn't really know that Thanos was going to win. It became more and more evident as the movie progressed. I figured that Dr. Strange would have to do some real heavy thinking and lifting after Thanos got the Soul Stone. And as soon as he had Time, I knew nothing mattered.
I saw Doctor Strange just recently, and I remembered the time lock Dr. Strange locked himself in. I knew that Thanos could just rewind time to go back to any point and get the Mind Stone.
But just like everyone else, after I realized Thanos was, more or less, unstoppable, it still hurt like a mother to see Spiderman die like that. The acting as your body painlessly but certainly ashes away was really good too. I could just imagine what it'd be like to not feel your legs and your arms, then the overwhelming sense of suffocation as your torso disintegrated and feeling the effect rise through your bust, neck, and then finally your mouth, nose, brain…eyes…
I'll also chime in that Thanos was obviously a villain but relatable. We all know resources are finite or at least slowly replenishing, and a cynic would also say that intelligent lifeforms desire freedom too much on the whole to keep itself from reproducing faster than those resources and support and keep itself from using resources in ways that are sustainable.
It makes you wonder if that really is the only way to prevent a slow death for everyone until a few thousand exist on each planet with almost no resources (perhaps at a point where those resources can't even replenish enough to support those that are left…with all of the wars and forced prejudices and discrimination that come with the "civil" ways of preserving what's left.

I appreciate your avatar.
I thought I remembered your username from somewhere, but I wasn't sure. I mostly stick to the forum which generally feels more evenly spread across the political spectrum, so I always forget the comments are far more conservative.
Not that there's anything wrong with being conservative. Ahem.
I never check my wall, apparently.
Well, it's not really like X at all beyond the general gameplay. It seems like a toned down version of 1 while still keeping timing and strategy important in the auto-attacks and arts. It's also a lot more…anime. But I can appreciate that. It doesn't try to be the same kind of story and have the same kind of storytelling as 1.
I wouldn't replay X, and I still haven't finished 1, but I'm replaying 2. So that's telling about how much I enjoyed the story and characters.
…especially Nia.

Posted in Suggestion: Allow "joke NSFW tags" to be a thing (move images to the KYM gallery if neccesary).
I'd say that the spoiler joke shouldn't be allowed…but only as a joke.
That is:
- We shouldn't allow spoiler tags to be used unless the content is actually NSFW
- And we shouldn't allow NSFW spoiler jokes in a related entry even if it actually is otherwise related to the entry…
- …because it should belong to a Bait-and-Switch NSFW gallery.
The worst case scenario is, admittedly, probably somewhat likely where uploaders abuse the joke especially someone who's just trying to get attention less than trying to contribute to the gallery. Yeah, I get that it's just a joke.
I'm just saying that it gets in the way of the primary goal of the site: to document and catalog.
If at any point it is a abused, we'd have to come up with a way to consistently moderate something we previously allowed and anyone coming to the site to view a gallery would have to deal with how many ever of those jokes we uploaded. If they're here to see NSFW stuff in a gallery, and half end up being jokes, that's going to get old by the third pic they find like that.
It's a site about memes, but it does document and catalogs those memes. I don't think the joke really adds much to the site (it's not a novel or unique joke), abuse of it does detract from the site's purpose, and it's hard to check if it is abused.
And uploaders know previous (and current) uploaders who will intentionally push boundaries and test rules for the sake of pushing boundaries and testing rules.
I think all the desire for the joke does is provide evidence that it needs its own gallery. Yeah, the joke is ruined there, and even if you spoilered the jokes in its own gallery, everyone knows what would be behind it killing the joke.
Again, I just don't think "for the lulz" trumps what the are meant to do: they supplement the entries, first and foremost.
