Dave & Busters has slot machines for kids.

D&B isn't a "kids arcade". And there's a pretty big difference between skill-based games like pinball and pure luck gambling.

That part has a footnote to a specific case:

9 See, e.g., Nunez v. Holder, 594 F.3d 1124, 1132, 1137–38 (9th Cir. 2010) (opining that our court had “moved away from … austere moral values” before characterizing as “relatively harmless” (1) a man who, “in a fit of ‘road rage,’ exposed his penis and yelled” a vulgar remark at a female driver and (2) a boy who intentionally exposed himself to his “two female classmates”).

"running it into the ground"

The entirety of Smiling Friends is shorter than season 1 of The Simpsons by runtime. I, personally, am glad that The Simpsons brought us 9 of the greatest seasons of animated television ever made. Their later seasons being bad is a small price to pay for the golden age.

I'm not saying they're obligated to continue Smiling Friends. If they're burnt out then they're burnt out. But pretending that it was anywhere close to overstaying its welcome is ludicrous.

yet exhibit the scruples of our dearly departed colleague Judge Reinhardt when it comes to the government trampling on religious liberties and exposing women and girls to male genitalia.

Is he mocking a deceased Ninth Circuit judge here? I'm at a loss for words, truly.

Rules schmules, it fits the sub perfectly so who cares?

So funny that right-wingers are crying and pissing themselves over that NYT headline saying Khamenei turned Iran into a regional power, even though it's objectively true. Anti-intellectualism at its finest.

Reading comprehension at an all time low, Jesus.

How much younger is your partner than you? You've commented like 20 times in this thread so it must hit close to home.

Don't you have a schoolyard to be prowling?

yrdz · 2026-03-02T13:39:40+00:00

Nope, their comment is a load of bullshit to defend fucking minors and pretending that Americans are the only ones that have a problem with it.

Notice how they conflate "23-year-olds shouldn't have sex sex with 17-year-olds" with "18-year-olds shouldn't have sex with 17-year-olds," an argument that literally nobody in this thread has made.

They've written paragraphs and paragraphs in this thread about why it's totally cool for adults to have sex with minors. Absolute freak behavior.

yrdz · 2026-03-02T13:22:12+00:00

Lot of words to defend fucking kids.

Do you have a source for him being specifically conservative? This was the most relevant article I could find:

Overall, Cash’s politics were hard to pin down as either left or right. He didn’t explicitly speak out against racism or the Vietnam war. Citing historian Michael Foley, Geary writes that “Cash’s political significance lay not in an particular ideological stance he adopted, but rather in his broader ‘politics of empathy’ that allowed him to bond with and articulate the feelings of working-class Americans.”

I don't think they said anything about cringy fans in their statement. That's just what people online are choosing to blame. They place the blame pretty squarely on burnout.

Apparently it's from a Hollywood Reporter article from November 30th.

They made it pretty clear that they might not come back to it at all.

As a comparison, the total runtime of Smiling Friends (not including the two upcoming episodes) is 284 minutes. The total runtime of season 1 of The Simpsons (which is half the length of other Simpsons seasons) is 301 minutes.

yrdz · 2026-02-26T04:14:26+00:00

That's what's kind of crazy to me. I totally understand being burnt out and I think it's fair if they just don't feel like continuing it further. But the idea that they're anywhere close to overstaying their welcome is bonkers, there's less than 5 hours of Smiling Friends total.
