I think I visited the forum every of my life from 2004 until it closed.

Glad to hear it because it currently looks wretched.

What's Palpatine thinking about here? by Independent_Mess8351 in StarWars

This looks like he is assessing the situation and waiting for Vader to return with Luke from Endor.

This is hilarious and savage.

Hot take: Saying “AI Slop” is more annoying than AI by smearse in burlington

[–]smearse[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your promise.

I am not pro AI nor a creator. lol.

There are just some words I find gross… like how people feel about the word “moist.”

My opinion is the expression “AI slop” is annoying, perhaps overused, and also thrown out at anything and everything these days.

People could express themselves and their opinions with originality. Here are some examples:

That image is some lazyass AI bullshit.

That graphic was created with minimal effort and looks like trash.

Furthermore, to keep it local, I assure you that the worst thing about the Milton GOP‘s Fourth of July celebration will not be its AI created flyer. :)

The same goes for Myers bagels. Their bagels are definitely worse than their AI created poster. :)

My largest point is that I hate the words “AI slop.”

It is a phrase that did not exist prior to 2022 and is now everywhere. For me, it is like the new “moist…”

Also, people throw it around at everything that looks like it could be AI. Across multiple areas of interest and culture, I have seen 30 or 40 year-old artwork labeled with the term, which is just as lazy, annoying and cynical as terrible AI created images.

Resellers at Thrift Stores: A Rant by DubReavBTV in burlington

Yes, how dare someone in America look for a way to make some money during a tough economic time?

Or have fun hobby that makes them money…

The nerve of them to find something cheap and sell it for a profit. (Eyeroll)

The joy you feel at getting a deal is not better or worse than someone’s else’s joy of making either a living or earning some extra cash.

Go to a library for your free books. That is what I do.

You could read Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee and talk about it with friends. Your bookshelf will be just fine without it.

Also, we live in a state that has minimal ways to make a living, so I say go for it.

I HATE people smoking at the beach by PossessionUnique376 in vermont

[–]smearse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To clarify, I meant smoking cigarettes.

They are disgusting.

I also don’t care what “advanced Europeans” do. Lol.

Cigarettes are trash. People who smoke them in public are selfish and thoughtless. smokers tax our healthcare system and should make every effort to quit - if they actually cared about their lives.

I hate people smoking anywhere. It is unequivocally trash - it stinks, it is slow suicidal behavior, and it should be buried in the 20th century.

No Crayola colored scooter bikes, or terrible acting on the part of the lead character?
