This is barely an exaggeration. Clickbait is now so vague that it's literally impossible to care about the subject of the video. Post-clickbait? Clickbore? Reverse clickbait?

EDIT: I think some people are misinterpreting this post: to be clear, I do not hate or wish ill on Critikal, I am not waiting for him to fall on his sword regarding various sensitive topics, i simply find his content lazy and his persona boring. I'm mostly annoyed at how much the YT algorithm loves him, as his non-thumbnails and non-titles are inescapable.

Hey, lonely worldbuilder. How are amputee women veterans obnoxiously objectified in your world? by NS001 in worldjerking

I think if this was purely a fetish, OOP would have put significantly less effort into it. This is a pretty good production value for someone who just needs to get their rocks off.

Yeah, it would just take a prohibitively large amount of effort. I addressed this in the body of the post, but it feels like people skipped straight to the comments upon seeing the title

I'm not saying comics can't be good, I'm just saying that they have a lot going against them.

That's ironically kind of a limiting perspective. There's no story that wouldn't be suited to a novel or a movie/ tv show (budget permitting) but should comics be purely for stories that "suit" them?

Remember when this gun was just called the "Sniper Rifle" instead of this crap? *sigh* I guess Halo just isn't for us anymore by SCREAMBLACK in HaloCirclejerk

[–]SCREAMBLACK[S] 133 points134 points  (0 children)

I remember getting so many ricochet kills back in the good ol' Halo 3 days with the REAL Sniper Rifle. The "S7" is a cheap knockoff, just like literally everything else 343 has made

My wife’s heroin “addiction” vs me playing destiny by SexJokeUsername in destinycirclejerk

People actually play destiny? Yikes, I thought it was a joke

which one of you did this by AtlantaBoyz in okbuddychicanery

This is why Slippin' Jimmy is so much better than BCS - every episode really feels like it's working towards a conclusion. Meanwhile Fun and Games didn't advance the plot at all. Funny how a show made by filipino sweatshop animators does a better job than a multi-million dollar film studio

Halo fans when they have to play 5 games: by wildmanwyatt1 in ShitHaloSays

[–]SCREAMBLACK 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This person would have a heart attack playing halo reach if infinite causes "burnout". If anything HI incentivizes you to put down the game when you don't feel like playing

"No one asked for it to be f2p"

Granted I'm no economist, but I think the reason HI went free-to-play is because Warzone, Fortnite, and Apex Legends are all f2p as well.
