Stuff You Just Can't Take Seriously

The new changelings that all I have to say

[SONICchaos 824]

MLP in its entirety.

I can still enjoy it for what it is but subject, writing, songs and and voice acting. Its a show made to be over the top and hokey "friendship solves all problems" but I bring it up because I cant tell you how many people I see putting MLP up against literary giants like Shakespeare, Joyce, Tolstoy, Mark Twain, Fitzgerald and Greek poet Homer. Then they try and compare quality to movies likes Schindler's List, Cassablanca, Citizen Kane and the Godfather.

I get it. I do. You REALLY like this show but you really cant try and draw plot points, allegory's, continuity, metaphors, misdirection and plot twists on par with works leagues ahead in quality. Just like Sonic is a game about a blue hedgehog that runs fast and beats up robots made by a mad scientist, I can take a step back from subjectivness and see what a work really is. MLP is a show that's really good at what it does but at the end of the day its written by a group of people working for a toy company with flash animation about technicolor mutated horses who solve all friendship problems in 22 minutes. There's only so good you can get from that formula.

Myself for example!  There are so many things I can't take serious. Discord, The shipping between characters, etc.

People who use the term "PC master race" unironically or think it's anything other than a joke.

Fun Fact: The term "PC Master Race" was coined when Yahtzee used it in his Witcher 1 review as a dig at PC gamers:

What quickly becomes obvious is that Witcher is very much a PC-exclusive game, which are typically designed to be as complex and unintuitive as possible so that those dirty console-playing peasants don't ruin it for the glorious PC-gaming master race. -Ben "Yahtzee" Croshaw

It was always a joke.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that, heh.

People who can't take a obvious joke and/or get mad about internet-meme(s).

People who are screaming/shouting their arguments, if you are right, why won't you let me speak.

People who write like this > I luv u babe < or in other similar ways unironically.

Advertisement that has kids in it or tries to appeal to kids when it's not a toy or something else aimed for children.

Finnish news-magazines, there is always like 1-5 real news and some amount of sports, and rest are: one daily Trump diss, recipes, weather guess (is never accurate), things from other magazines and last but not least, sex and celebrity "news", gossip-magazine stuff. -edit- also there is these totally random top x lists of stupid and useless. things. and fashion, and other things you would expect to see in Facebook only. 

 

there's some things.

People who use the British "u" in words.

I know its a small thing to be pissy about but whenever I see the added "U" from British words by Americans I feel its a "hipstour" kinda thing. I get a few words can pass without notice like "Colour" and "Flavour" but then these words dont even sound correct in my head let alone look correct. " Armour, Demeanour, Harbour, Honour, Humour, Labour, Neighbour, Rumour, Splendour, Mould, Odour, Vapour, Savour, Rancour, Valour "

It may be complete bias but when I see a friend whom I know is American born writing using these spellings...oooooooh it rankles my cankles.
