Because hey, who DOESN'T want to overpay for a bad joke written in comic sans on a t-shirt?

What? So porn isn't allowed to have its own kickstarter systems now? Is that what you are saying?

Joke aside, I am not sure why this is "going wrong" unless Kickstarter actually does let you kickstart porn.

That's actually not a bad idea. Gauge the interest before you invest in an industry that is slowly dying.

Kickstarter has stated they will not host any adult-sexual projects on their site.

Not inherently bad.

There was (is?) one project on there (can't find it now) that was a comic that described itself as "adult art done the right way" or similar.  Like it was trying to be high brow and anatomically accurate, etc. etc.

And it wasn't.

It was very clearly watermelon sized tits blasting through the fourth wall and I was like, "Really?"

Candidate for the OOC Quote thread, right there. All I can picture is a pair of huge breasts smashing through a brickwall, Koolaid Guy-style.

Interestingly enough I watched an anime where a woman's special talent was "Having the most impressive pair of breasts in the world" and one scene involved her beating up a bunch of bandits using her breasts.

This wasn't an eichi or hentai anime either. In fact it is Shonen.

I dunno why you were expecting a pop-up book to be highbrow.

It could be to be truthful. (A pop up book... not the porn part)

Heck I am honestly astonished that there aren't many adult picture books.

I meant compared to the usual fare.  If I could find that project again you'd understand what I meant.

I hate those fucking shirts so much.  If I had a son, and he walked in wearing a shirt with "otaku mafia" on it, I would stop loving him.

Get back at them with subliminal conditioning.

If I was your kid, I'd wear said shirt just to goad you into doing that and showing how much of a fool you are :P

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.
