CLOUD CONFIRMED FOR SMASH DLC

.... Oookay then.

[endlessblaze]

whos cloud again?

[Putnam]

cloud strife, main character of final fantasy vii, the best selling JRPG of all time

[Graknorke]

i mean i'm a lazy fuck so maybe i missed it, but i didn't see anybody else declaring that the genre was shit

It wasn't me insisting insisting the nobody like what I don't like, it was me being an obnoxious prick by saying I don't like a thing that somebody else said nobody should dislike.

ah, gotcha

i didn't quite take that away from the prior conversation, but that's my bad

i'll leave you with the note that you didn't say you didn't like it, you said it was shit, and it was this distinction that got my metaphorical goat

if this seems like an overly smug way of getting the last word in, it may be that, i don't know, but one way or another good luck in the future

Shouldn't saying it's shit imply that I don't like it? I could count on one hand the number of things that I like and also would call shit.

Apparently, men who smell like garlic are more attractive.

...Can any of the women here confirm? _{Please. I need all the help I can get.}

Guy with the giant, phallic-themed sword.


Curious to how Nintendo got ahold of him.

Also curious as to why Chrome flags "ahold" as misspelled.

Saying something is shit also implies that others don't like it. Saying "it's shit" is basically an attack on whatever you're calling shit, saying "I don't like it" is an opinion.

[flabort]

because you ARE mispelling "A Hold".

Yes.

It also implies that anyone who does like it is shit and/or has shit taste.

Sure, but saying you don't like something doesn't imply that it's shit. They're clearly not equivalent statements.

[Akura]

Looked up the origins of my last name. It means something like "someone who lives next to a pile of slate". Okay...

[Graknorke]

Wow you guys must be pretty fucking dull when you're giving opinions on things then. Any sensible reader should be able to realise that a person's opinions are opinions, since without any stated metrics there can't be an objective measure of how good or bad a thing is.

[Rolan7]

I don't like it = I don't like it
It's shit = I think it's objectively bad, and others shouldn't like it.  If they do, they're in error.
It's bad = it's shit

What's that got to do with anything?

The opinion conveyed by the statement "It's shit" is different from the opinion conveyed by the statement "I don't like it". In all cases the reader knows it is an opinion. C'mon, man, surely you can logic better than this, you've got GDI Denton for an avatar.
