(This one is so retarded that maybe I'm missing the Poe here but it's current year SA so who knows)

All this started because someone mused about re-watching some old cartoons. Lowtax is spinning in his dead, gay, grave.

It's almost like people use things that are considered bad in some way to describe things that are bad in the same way.

That’s unpossible!

Goons convinced themselves that they need to apologize for once upon a time having used inappropriate and outrageous words and humour precisely because it was inappropriate.

There are vanishingly few original goons left, the cat ladies and troons ran them all off.

Hard to believe this place once harbored people who put 9/11 footage to Yakity Sax.

Would have been better if you had learned not to be a gay faggot. That was the real lesson life was trying to teach you.

 

[Big Nasty]

the word gay is gay.

Isn't that a Anal Cunt track?

Plus they're all old as shit. The first wave goons were in their 20s in the very early 2000s. Some were older, a not insignificant amount were usenet oldheads.

I like to think no one is pushing 50 and still arguing about r words and marxist praxis

 

[AnOminous]

No relation.


Imagine telling a 2000 reg date that using the word gay is gay.

Imagine having a fit of the vapors at someone saying faggot when you're the kind of performative online liberal whose immediate go-to insult is to accuse someone of being secretly gay.

Considering the general idiocy, lack of good judgment and poor impulse control of many paleolithic goons, I would also guess a lot of them died off over the years.

Remember the dude who made the Lord of the Rings Elf dildo? that thread was strangely educational and the level of Tolkien scholarship in the conceptual stage and design was hilariously deep. Dude even came up with a linguistically-accurate elvish slang term for penis.

You can think that but those olds are on Bluesky and still simping for Zoe Quinn while also being extremely bitter about the internet not clamping down on Gamergate hard enough.

WTF there’s a front page?
