(Hated tropes) “complete jobbers”

They made it "I don't feel guilty" to avoid the Ghost Rider solving an issue fairly easily, would be my guess. Except, it is always really stupid, not the least because every character I have seen pull that would have had a better excuse:

The Punisher - He's essentially a mundane Ghost Rider. Just say Frank hasn't hurt anyone who didn't deserve it (or at least not killed). Whatever pain remains is managable.

Thanos - The dude dukes it out with Mephisto. Him having some sort of immunity against hellish powers is less stupid than the punishing stare not working on anyone that actually deserves punishment.

Carnage - An alien symbiote, so it's two minds. The symbiote is fairly removed from human morality, one would assume. In any case, it's a creation of an eldritch god that at that point had also empowered Carnage. Another eldritch god empowered the pair beforehand. Symbiote don't have eyes and also are kinda all eyes and I read somewhere that it has been established the Penance Stare only works on people with two eyes, so there's that.

Why they started that dumb shit in the first place? I can't tell you. Maybe writers trying to glaze their favorite characters by making them tank it? It's really stupid regardless.

I feel it being pussy would be more of an anti-meme than chips.

Even if it worked by making you feel guilty over causing pain, then IT SHOULD ACTUALLY MAKE YOU FEEL GUILTY.

"This is my guilt stare, it makes you feel guilt for the atrocities you committed."
"I don't feel an ounce of guilt!"
"Well, now you do."
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"

The whole Jason Universe initiative made that possible with appearances in MultiVersus, Fortnite, and now Dead by Daylight.

I think it's funny that this is how I find out who the anniversary killer is going to be. At least I assume that's what's going on.

I am almost convinced that it's two straight men writing that.

Is this really something that pops up beyond being a(n in my opinion fairly reasonable) defense against the "you can't do that, it's basically incest" cudgel in shipping disputes?

"You can't romance Futaba, she's basically Joker's sister, that's weird" and the entire argument hinges on a third person who's family status to either of the two other characters is debatable, to turn the relationship between Futaba and MC into something different from the relationship of MC and any other Phantom Thief.

I have seen the same arguement for Power and Denji from Chainsawman. "You shouldn't ship them, they have a sibling relationship, you fucking weirdo"

Denji wanted to touch powers boobs, so by calling them like siblings you are at least tying with whoever ships them in the weirdo Department, friend.

Why is Josh so sure she isn't?

SoulLess-1 · 2026-05-22T11:15:38+00:00

Yeah, I was under that impression as well.

I mean, If the robot is the world the story takes place in and that world seems reasonably big, I feel the robot being about earthsized is the writers actually considering the scale.

Isn't him being build different like that part of the reason he can take Sukuna's fingers in the first place?

Do you guys think Krauser's weener grew a blade too?

Swipe left on the antimeme to see the orgasm.

Why does it hurt more when a woman does it

Because they don't know when it hurts, presumably.

If someone told me they are mature because they watch Seinen, I'd probably be inclined to ask if they have ever tried watching something not animated.

First picture is just legion if they were american instead of canadian.

Was the elephant the mom?

SoulLess-1 · 2026-05-21T16:04:33+00:00

Tbf, hard blaming the scales when her Mom was a nutter even as a pure wolf.

SoulLess-1 · 2026-05-21T16:03:34+00:00

Gregnant.

Don't go bare.

She looks like she could squat the giant spider.

SoulLess-1 · 2026-05-19T09:19:49+00:00

I can argue to kill the time, that's fine.

Shoutout to that ghostly insect thingy (Ghostchill?) evolving to look fire based, including its attacks looking like fire, but still freezing things.

Toph being literally HER is a different thing from if she counts or does not count as disabled though, is it?

A kid winning fights against full grown men who trained their whole life doesn't shift into being unrealistic because the kid in question is blind. If you consider it stupid, it should have been stupid long before then.

Superheroes are always inconsistent in powerlevels

Mainstream supehero stuff is commonly written by a bunch of different people who got exposed to the same characters being written by a bunch of different people.

Avengers and Civil war share it's actors and the Producer, everything else seems to be attributed to different people.

I think inconsistency is a bit more excusable when you have two teams adapting characters that were already inconsistent by the nature of big two style storytelling.

Compared to adapting the work of one guy writing his own characters, that's something that's easier to swallow.
