Another Squirrely Sidequest

The title is "A Beautiful Woman and His Dog."
It was a curious drop of joy to encounter.
In any case, this thread also supercedes my dead Ask thread, so watch this space and slash or perform any rituals of conjuration here.

Shouldn't gravity be doing something?
Of course there's a figure of Rodimus as some kind of animal girl. Why would I be surprised by this?

All of the minutes. Where are the rest of the minutes? I think I need all of the other minutes.

That's it, sorry.
Also the game it's advertising is the most sinful thing ever.

How so?
And why is there not more FF7 via Aardman? Because that's, like, the best pitch ever.

Basically you buy the game for your 3DS or mobile phone
then you go to a toystore and buy blind-backed treasurechest-shaped boxes to randomly get little plastic keychain items and weapons and gear, scan them into the game, and that's how you get new equipment.
And this is aimed at little kids.

But, like, the video itself took a potshot at that concept. Knowing that context, it's downright subversive. = /
I'll be honest, though, I don't think games that require buying toys are any more evil than cartoons that require buying toys.

I'd agree if they were actually toys? They're just hunks of plastic, and you end up buying tons of them. Apparently some of them don't even work as full gear and offer minor stuff like damage percentage buffs or shop discounts.
I just picture a growing mound of keychain knicknacks gathering dust in a shoebox and it feels like a huge waste of plastic.
You're losing your touch hecabear. That's not so bad. You would do well to remember, I honed my otaku skills in the pits of
KaonAnimax!
Okay I'll go find something worse then!

Okay, that's fair. I can't stand that kind of shit. Make it a toy or just make it a card, but don't try and do the one with the budget of the other. I'm offended by the existence of those sorts of dollar store toys, for the same reasons of waste and the general sense that if you're going to take up space in the world, you ought to at least be pretty.

But yeah, I actually kinda like this style of humor, that's not so much lolrandom as just absurdly compressed and intercut. Reminds me very much of the "Robbie the Reindeer" shorts.

I hate Wattpad. One of our local TV stations turns viewer-submitted stories from it into programming and what isn't awful is a ripoff of something else.

Yeah, I'm just glad that was already tagged as personal reflection. = /

Fair point. I don't suppose I can generally make any pretense of impartiality myself, so after those few years as a comp teacher, I just try to keep my preferences in line with the objectives at hand (generally not difficult, since that means liking people who impress me and disliking people who create problems.)
Do you write "Like" on the good papers?
