"Kimmie66"
Well, I had to buy a gift for a rather young sister, so I bought this, but after I found something better I got her that and neglected to get her this. That is the backstory behind this, I would never get a fucking MINX book to read. Anyway, I was bored with no internet access and decided to read it. Bad idea. Well, it gave me more things to be angry about, which I guess I enjoy. Before coming here to write this post, I found a teenage girl (who thinks shes mature because shes not 14 anymore, lol) who write a journal about it
Kimme66 is what I enjoyed the most. Mostly because it's about comminity sites on the
internet (oh yeah?!). What I love about it most is that it pin points exactly how
fourteen year olds think and talk on the internet and I of course remember the way I
was on the internet at that naïve age of fourteen. Pocky, Anime, "Thingy", Neko,
wordsyoucramintogethertomakeitlooklikeyourtalkingf ast-or-puting-it-like-this-to-make-one-sentence-one-word...
and other things that you'll probably recognize from the internet. It amuses me.
It's about a girl named Telly in the 23rd centuary with an unhealthy obsession with
the virtual reality internet. When she hears that her drifter best friend, kimmie66,
on the net was going to drown herself (and does) she is "haunted" by her
thought-to-be-dead friend whenever she goes into V.R. Is this a sick joke by some
hacker with nothing to do with their time or is Kimmie haunting the internet?
Read it! The guy who drew it helped with Invader Zim and Avatar: the last airbender
:D. The style is very "Johen Vasquez"-y
God I want the internet to be in virtual reality. Future Now Please.
Now that fucking covers it. Kimmie66 takes all the negative aspects of the weeaboo/child/female realm of the internet and puts them into one. Stupid goth themes, Vasquez ripoff art, characters speak annoyingly, typical weeaboos who love to eat goddamn pocky, a girl named "Nekokat", I mean jesus christ. This comic is halfway between NarutoxNeopets forums and Hot topic. On top of that, the storyline is horrible, pacing is absolutely disgusting and the characters, while they do show development, are still horrible. The underlying theme is sort of "live your life" but they ruin any impact or subtleties by blurting it out 4 times near the end, and in the dumb voice of the main character. Also, it has a typical 14 year old girl, introvert with a mean brother, dead mom, and busy dad. Fucking cliche if I've ever seen one. All interesting sidestories are either cut short or have a bad conclusion, and any interesting characters move in the wrong way. DC, Minx and CMX make me sad. More Vertigo, please.
And it figures that Comics worth reading praised it. please.

Seriously, don't you ever wonder about the fact that violence is the only thing most people seem to either fear or respect, and that it is patently a bad thing to have to resort to it to move people in a direction you wish, when it should be far easier and more satisfying to do it with words?

Also, this has nothing to do with me being an opportunist and striking out to bolster my e-peen girth or anything; the simple fact of the matter is that 300 memes are stupid shit. I'm sorry, matte_k, but we just can't work like this. Something's gotta give.

fact of the matter is that 300 memes are stupid shit I don't see a fact there and you seem to have missed the little issue that you're posting on the message board for a site which practices the same brand of humour and cynicism as about half the spawn of 4chan. Now either a Spartan or anonymous did something horrible to you as a child or your response was gross and conceited.

300 came out in what, 2006? the memes started when there were just trailers. 2 years. 2 fucking years weve been dealing with the same shit. most memes started even earlier at somethingawful, which I do actually browse, which makes them even older. and hell, if you're on 2ch, you already saw every meme 10 years ago.

I love stir-fry but my mom makes the best stir-fry ever (fresh, not oily, filling, perfectly seasoned). Tip: If you are making stir-fry, do not use bottle sauces. Use soy sauce and sugar, cooking wine, and, depending on the type of food you are cooking, some combination of ginger, garlic, and green onion.

You kind of are being derogatory, if I've not misread. Begrudging people for being or 'acting' homosexual is more derogatory than using the word 'gay' to call something or someone stupid, which is just moronic and ignorant. I'm assuming you've just had a case of poorly chosen wordage. What is there to hate about those gay kids these days? Young people today are terrible gay or straight; sexuality isn't some great divider across personality country.

I agree with the 'acting' portion of what he said. I dislike all public statements, whether it be from guys acting like their bullocks don't fit in their shorts; guys acting like they traded them in for ovaries or women ...just generally being feminine. The major problem with the middle one, aside from it being grating, is it can lead to some awkward moments when it comes to light that he's only, "metro".

Oh, I found that to be quite hilarious. We were all quite amused when I told two metro guys back in highschool that I thought they were a couple for quite a while, until I figured out both of them had girlfriends. Then again, these guys were just rather fashionable and spent most (read: all) of their time at school together.

That's something else from wearing one's little sister's trousers, or holding limpwristathons. Personally, I can't stand overly feminine gay guys, as they creep me out and - I suppose - make me feel somewhat ashamed for confirming most people their prejudice.

etnlIcarus
08-16-2008, 03:11 PM
Really, the difficulty is in defining femininity or finding the line which, once crossed, makes a person feminine. It's ultimately more of a construct of culture and super-ego and largely subjective. I know a couple of guys who wear their sister's jeans and behave like glam rockers but I wouldn't define them as feminine as their behaviour and social manner is much more rock than glam. Inversely, the more tactile, histrionic and nuanced in manner a guy is, the more feminine he appears to me. Personally, I'm only creeped out by the fat or ugly ones (not that I can really judge) but regardless of your specific sensitivity, it's a pretty normal reaction.

When applying the feminine tag to women, I'm not nearly as nebulous. Any instances of extroversion; irrationality or sexual confidence I define as feminine. If you think that's sexist, it probably is but then again, I'm the first to admit that I'm a misogynist.

Demaar
08-16-2008, 04:10 PM
You've got me all wrong. When I say I don't mean to sound derogatory I mean I'm not saying "that's gay" like your typical Xbox live goon, but a person that is attracted to the same gender.

Also, I definitely don't hate the people, I hate the trend.

it's more... nonsensical. That it is. As is my general hostility towards women. It's fun being me.

And in case it wasn't clear, I wasn't talking about femininity as an arbitrary label for behaviour. Rather, as a reflection of my reaction to such behaviour (in-keeping with us sharing our feelings of disgust or ...whatever it is Demaar is skirting around).

This is just a wild stab in the dark, but would you happen to be a sexually diffident introvert, with a fairly high opinion of his own intelligence? Wouldn't diffidence and that, "high opinion", tend to result in a contradiction in my profile?

And I'd be more inclined to say I'm a depressed, slightly nihilistic introvert. Don't think I'm particularly intelligent - just quite dispassionate and with a very dry way of thinking. I did far too poorly in my studies to have an inflated opinion of my mental capacity and discipline.

See, I hate this reading in-class thing in general. Especially when the students are unfamiliar with the text, which contributes greatly to both the poor pacing and stuttering of the speaking and lack of appropriate tone (though monotone speaking doesn't really bother me. I don't need a human voice to provide emotional context to novels and resources).

Another thing I disliked was, somehow, I always ended up doing the reading and I always ended up doing it for about twice as long as anyone else. It's extremely tiring; having to read a line or so ahead of what you're saying to avoid stuffing up clauses and questions. Granted, that probably explains why I was chosen so often.

I hate the channel ten voiceover people. Well, channel ten in general. Channel seven is no better, but ten has just gotten sad. Especially the purchasing of half a dozen shows from channels nine and seven and presenting them as new, just in case no one's ever heard of sex and the city or futurama. The neighbours theme song has been shortened and 'spiced up' to the point where the two remaining lyrics make no sense whatsoever. "Neighbours, everybody needs good neighbours! That's when good neighbours make good friends!" What I get from that is, that neighbours are a bunch of leeches that will befriend you the instant they can take advantage of a situation of mutual neediness. Kind of appropriate, though, maybe.

I hate commercial television in general. Then again, I hate cable television too.

I hate both Fiona O'Lachlan and Ray Romano for the same reason; performing standup routines where all you talk about is your dysfunctional nuclear family is f**king boring as hell.

Enter every other comedian since 1950...

Most comedians either crack random jokes, talk about their bohemian lifestyle or focus on a broader social commentary. Most of the comedians who have a wife and kids rarely wax on about them. Romano's already a pretty poor comedian but O'Lachlan's 'I'm such a terrible mother' routine is just the most grating, forced and thoughtless excuse for material.

That blog just reminded me of how much I hate Dane Cook. I would suck Fiona O'Lachlan's cock if it meant fate struck that man-child down with some terrible illness.

There are some very, very good comedians out there. Many of them don't touch standup with a ten foot pole. Some do though, go watch some Judith Lucy!
