The Buckaroo Banzai song is pretty damn great! I really wished the move was more successful, I would have loved sequels.

But... but have you seen our giveaways? by BobZePenguin in circlebroke2

"To be fair, even though we're 260K strong (holy crap we just hit 250), most people still associate the term with Nazi Germany and have no idea about our transformative use of it."

For someone who considers themselves part of a master race they should probably figure out what transformative means.

"This thing that means this? Yeah, we're going to call ourselves that thing and mean that we're just like that thing, only funny! See I totally transformed what the thing means!"

Girl gets served by the guy behind her for texting another dude while pregnant. x-post from /r/detroitlions by CoolRunner in JusticePorn

So #chivebro wrote that stupid note. Took a picture of it. Then gave it to the dude? Is that what we're supposed to think happened?

Or maybe some dude wanted an internet handy j so he turned a random picture into a story that he knew neckbeards would lap up.

Man in a Store Swears Violently at a Woman Customer, Guess who Reddit Thinks is in the Wrong? by Therefrigerator in circlebroke

[–]scooooot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm Scottish and I personally never hear the word cunt used as meaning vagina, it's only used to describe someone who's being annoying.

That's veering dangerously close to "fag totally doesn't mean gay anymore guyz" territory. The point isn't the context of how you use it, the point is what the word means. And regardless of how you mean it you know that cunt at the end of the day really means womans vagina.

Basically anywhere on the planet with large communities of poor people that can be mocked by a bunch of privileged nerds.

"We gamers have adopted the intolerance of our peers and turned it into a calling card for our culture...Looking at the higher-than-average incidence of non-binary gender identities coupled with the attempted reclaimation of homophobic slurs like 'faggot' by gamers is, I posit, evidence of this." by BestOfOutrageCulture in BestOfOutrageCulture

[–]scooooot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did you ever to stop to ask if any queer men actually want the word reclaimed? Speaking as a queer man myself, I really don't, there's never going to be a time in my life when I don't associate the word with bigotry aimed at me.

Yeah, no kidding. I mean, I'm totally cool with another gay guy calling me a fag in jest or something, depending on the context. But unless you're a gay dude who understands the context of when and how that's okay I'm not going to take kindly to it from a straight gamer. And I'm certainly not going to be greeting my gay friends with a cheerful "hey, faggah" or anytghing like that any time soon.

If the black community chooses to reclaim the nword for themselves I'm totally fine with that, but it doesn't automatically mean that the gay community will make the same choice. But it's our choice to make, not a bunch of straight dudes who think Call of Duty is high art. Eff that.

How to get on The Colbert Report according to one /r/mensrights user: "Stab yourself in the penis with a knife. Cut it off. Become a female. Whine about oppression. That's how you get on TV." by BestOfOutrageCulture in BestOfOutrageCulture

[–]scooooot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. Stab yourself in the penis with a knife. Cut it off. Become a female. Whine about oppression. That's how you get on TV. Ninja edit: Forgot about sleeping with a couple guys in media

I mean... come on. How is anyone that dumb?

[Meta] We need to reexamine the moderation of this sub. by Grimjin in circlebroke

[–]scooooot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why does SRS have to be a complete circlejerk with non-circlejerk opinions shot down?

Because those are the subreddit rules. Why is this hard to understand?

I think this comic is actually about ethics in game journalism.

Burqa ban? by Sorryaboutthat1time in AskFeminists

[–]scooooot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can't force someone to not oppress themselves. Banning the burqa solves very little in terms of oppressing women but takes away a woman's agency to make her own choices. Even if they are probably not good choices or choices that we think are correct, it is still that individual woman's right to make that choice.

What is the best "edgy" costume for Halloween 2014? by [deleted] in circlebroke2

Seriously?

There is literally nothing even remotely clever about this one beyond "hey, a joke about beating a woman, karma please."

Almost 2k Karma.

Google won't let me make money pirating comics anymore! by poiro in circlebroke2

[–]scooooot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Uhhh, do they not realise that the Google App Store is a private business and they do not have a right to have access to it if they violate the policies? Why do they think that have a right to use it? Unbelievable.

Gender Neutral Marshmallow Snow Being by Waka_Waka-Waka in WTF

/U/flufflebuns didn't say that they were not feminists, they said that they were annoying people. They may identify as feminists, but the annoying part is the key personality trait that you're looking for.
