TROPHY CASE

Why didn't they have Dende heal Goku? They could have saved so much time. by inutterablein dbz

[–]Hirosheb 10 points11 points ago

They didn't know Dende could heal people, and Dende didn't know about Goku. By the time they figured it out it was too late, Freeza would have just followed them and killed them all.

It's an opinion blog, it is what it is.

Alright, yeah. I find myself only agreeing with his analysis when I already dislike the thing he is talking about.

I'm getting a little tired of explaining this, but: I linked that blog because it was posted to reddit awhile ago and kind of snowballed into a "yeah I guess you're right, fuck the Oatmeal" mentality that I was talking about. I'm not trying to present that blog as fact. I should edit my comment...

I'm not saying the blog proves anything about The Oatmeal, it's content, it's viewers, etc, all I'm saying is that THAT was the post that sparked this Oatmeal debate that I was under the impression ended with "yeah let's just stop linking to The Oatmeal."

The blog, as I understand it, is one mans soapbox for talking about things he doesn't find funny. I don't think there's any reason to believe it was all tongue in cheek, especially since it took on wildly different things like webcomics, sitcoms and radio programs. Is it really that hard to believe someone doesn't find the Oatmeal funny? This whole comment thread has soured me to the idea of opening my mouth (inb4 "WELL THEN STFU LOL" gets 100 upvotes and I'm buried even further [inb4 "why do you care about upvotes?"])

My original comment was just an off hand remark about something that happened a while ago. You guys need to take a deep breath.

-_- guys, jesus, I'm just being facetious about a few high profile threads from yesteryear. Fucking take it easy.

That's ok, nothing really gets done anyway. We all just sit in our cars waiting for someone to be the first to walk into the building until it's dark and time to go home.

You don't see anything wrong with the comic I linked? You mean, you don't see anything wrong with the kind of humor and presentation it was making fun of the Oatmeal for using? If that's the case then sure that's fine, the point was that the blog/comic I linked was submitted to Reddit a while ago (along with the other things I mentioned) and everyone seemed to all come together and agree not to pay attention to The Oatmeal anymore. But now every time he updates it's submitted here to mass approval and it just leaves me thinking "wtf?"

What? Honestly, what? Who is being sarcastic?

Something about the Oatmeal creator being some SEO jerkoff, and this post from this blog. EDIT: that post was submitted to Reddit back when people were finding out how sleazy the Oatmeal creator was, which is when some of us said "ok the Oatmeal and the guy who runs it sucks." I'm not trying to use that comic as proof that the Oatmeal sucks just because this random person said so, it's just a piece of history.

edit: and I might be mixing him up with someone else but I could swear people were posting proof that he is an asshole to people all over email, Twitter, whatever.

Didn't we all agree that The Oatmeal was really shitty like 8 months ago? What happened to all those people that agreed with me...

A while ago there were some posts that highlighted the fact that The Oatmeal creator was using SEO tricks and was an all around scummy asshole and so the general attitude was "fuck that guy and his website." This attitude has obviously changed. Who are all these people on my lawn?

I'm concerned that this will increase drama about SRS

I mean, just look at this thread

Hey I don't care what a man and a consenting computer do in the privacy of his own home, but I'm not buying his stories and it's really funny how passionately people are defending his right not to give full disclosure.

It seems like the voices of the ignorant who say digital painting is worthless, cheap, easy, etc have poisoned your mind a bit. It's not a painting, it's a digital painting, but I'm not saying that to diminish it's value. It's just what it is.

For what it's worth, think about this (I've seen this a million times): someone takes a photo portrait, inserts it into Photoshop, then proceeds to trace over it. In this case I think it's important to at least be aware what kind of tools allowed this painting to come into being. It's a lot different than using a reference.

[–]Hirosheb -7 points-6 points ago

Someone made a gif below that shows how to reproduce the same image using filters so I'm inclined to believe that he just freehand drew a photoshopped version of this picture. Not sure why so many people feel the need to defend this?

It's an exact copy. Look at it. With your eyes. Use your eyes. The eyes that God gave you.

Oh exactly, but it often happens there because all the appropriate places are ghost towns.

The only useable one was r/reddit.com, but without a built in audience it is going to be hard to replace. /r/wtf can't take it all alone.

[–]Hirosheb 0 points1 point ago

Thanks for that.

It's different because the computer programs for digital painting were made to mimic actual painting mediums and techniques. You deserve no less admiration for painting with a tablet in Photoshop than if you used a brush, but I can't agree that the two are interchangeable. Again, I don't think the OP was trying, needed, or even managed to "fool" people, but it's still something that happens.

Maybe it'll make a comeback, like a Cinderella Subreddit!

sigh, I don't even care about it anymore. It was a one-off joke about making a sub for the purpose of highlighting when mods are assholes and then being an asshole mod myself, but only one person actively played along.
