Typically stuff you see in 80s college movies.

Pretty sure that shit is called stalking/sexual harassment these days.

It always was.

i love how every time black people riot about cops shooting people it's in the news and people make dank memes about how awful black people are but when white people riot over sports nobody cares

Some people being racist? On the internet? Inconceivable!

I mean I wasn't going to say anything, but if you use the word "dickgirl" enough someone is going to get offended, its not exactly a nice word.
It's a bit past the expiration date on this, but that wasn't intended offensively -- the slang's used by the people into that fetish on that site and board possibly even more than anyone else. Same as calling /tg/ers fa/tg/uys (or ca/tg/irls, I suppose), you're not saying that they're literally all fat neckbeards, it's a part of the vernacular.

Or, for a more general example, something being referred to as "cool" might not, depending on context, mean that it is literally of a temperature lower than the ambient average.

And people into transgender fetish porn call it "tranny porn," that doesn't make "tranny" any less of a slur. :v

I'm not sure what the logic behind "The people who get off on/objectify them use the term, so it's okay!" is but it's a little suspect. :v

It gets even worse when LGBT and "pro trans" movements actualy start adopting terms that once were used in the most offensive porn involving transgender people and start touting fetishists and people who get off to porn involving transgender people as "progressive" because apparently fapping to something means you completely accept it as an equal member of your society and totally dont objectify them.

Yeah, I can see where you're coming from (no pun intended), but... that's not really what I'm getting at. I'm sort of puzzled by your flat assumption that none of those people are GLBT but rather a bunch of asshole cishet bigots. o.0

Frumple's probs right though, I'll curtail my part in the discussion here.

hell no, some guy on /r/lewronggeneration posted a racist macro to /r/adviceanimals to see what would happen and got over 1500 upvotes

friggin disgusting

hell, a lot of reddit's more popular subreddits are like that; /r/imgoingtohellforthis and /r/blackpeopletwitter love jokes there as long as none of the imply anything bad about white people, etc.

I guess Five Nights at Freddy's is an honest-to-goodness franchise now. The speculated movie is apparently still in the works, and there's a fourth game coming as well. While I'm happy that the creator has found such massive success, it becomes mind-boggling the more you think about how this happened in less than a year. :o

Yeah, I considered adding an addendum saying something like "Dickgirl might be a different thing, though. I do know of *some* trans people using the term, and I haven't heard much against it. Not to mention that 'dickgirl' is usually used in terms of drawn porn, which I don't really give a shit about because it's not actual people. (I'll give a nod to people talking about normalization here, but it hasn't been proven for video game violence, I'd say the jury is still out)."

And, I mean, Alleecat herself used the term, so at least in-so-far as it relates to her spheres, I would consider it alright.

I guess my main point was, purely and simply, that the logic itself of "Porn users use the term, therefore it's okay," was a little wonky, which you said you can at least see the perspective of, so... WASTED POST!

I tossed a bag of trash into the dumpster, then turned and walked away. A moment later, I heard the dumpster lid open again, and turned to see something crawl out. turns out i ruined a raccoon's evening

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.
