Kaws, one of those pop art figures that ended up getting merchandized to hell and back.
Made me think of the "saw"movie, but I 'm unsure

I don’t know. That fight option looks like it could be fun too… TEST YOUR MIGHT!

Run like the wind!
I am old, please explain. :?(
The posters are red flags for “nice guys” and other very problematic people
I must be way too old. Being a nice guy is bad? Fuck, I’ve been living under a rock. Is this about incense or this sigma thing?
Being a nice person isn’t bad but “nice guy” is a term for someone who presents themselves as nice and polite (but only to people they’re attracted to) and expects romantic attention in return for being nice. Basically, they think the fact that they put so much effort into being nice they deserve that romantic attention. They’ll often talk about how nice they are.
Of course, anyone who needs to repeatedly tell you they are nice tend not be.
This, and, speaking for myself, I once thought that’s literally how you attract someone because that’s what my mom taught me. “be nice to women, find a nice girl, ???, marriage.” in that order. But I was nice to everyone, not just people I liked.
The one time I ever talked about how nice I thought I was, was when I was 18 and the girl I liked called me creepy when I was being nice to her all the time showering her with compliments and ttying to hang out with her. I went on this little rant, out of frustration, on FB in a status update about how women were bitches for not liking me and calling me creepy when I’ve just been trying to he nice to them. Yeah, at that point, that status update wasn’t exaclty being nice to anyone.
Actually that was probably when I took a look at myself and realized just being nice isn’t gonna cut it, and my mom’s advice was shit. THEEEEEN, a few years later I heard about Nice Guys™
It’s okay I’m now 32 and I have seen the light, it’s just took me until a couple years ago to figure it all out
Cool Matt
You apparently have been living under a rock because there is a world of difference between someone who is nice and also a guy and someone being a “nice guy”.
Also the posters are red flags not because they reference nerdy things but because they show an unhealthy obsession with fictional characters who, though charismatic, are evil people who justify their violent actions with straw man arguments about power and corruption. The words on the Thanos poster put an especially fine point on that part.
Nice guy and “nice guy” are two different things
If you don’t love me at my nerdiest, you don’t deserve me at my I get off eating my partner out.
There’s nerd and then there’s Thanos grindset nerd. I do not acknowledge the latter as being a true subset of the former.
Edit: It was bothering me so I have to point out that I’m making a No True Scotsman Fallacy here. This does not change my statement.
No. Grindset nerds are a cancer that must be excised for the health of the community.
Like the kind of nerd that would let autocorrect replace excised with exercised.
What’s the appropriate reaction to DPRK Comrade Applejack?
Institutionalization
Already tried it.
Damn I’m sorry
Check what rights institutionalized people in your state have - especially with the administration trying to make list of people with autism…

Fight optionShe should don Catwoman costume, gently pummel the dude to submission, and say “How’s this for a BOTTOM TEXT”?
This display used to be the first thing you would see when you walked into my home.
The only reason I moved them was because I replaced them to make room for my two massive bearded dragon tanks. 😎
Any future partner better match my energy LOL
My girlfriend is EXTREMELY jealous of all your peepees and ouiouis
They are the result of years of slowly obtaining them. They are pretty much the only thing(s) of value that I own! Really love them a lot. 💕
If she doesn’t have a Peepy of her own yet, it’s your obligation to get her one! 🫵 And if she already has one, she needs more.
I suddenly got a hankering for some peanuts…
Feed him.
Niiice, but I need to take care of my niece, tomorrow!
I used to worry about what women would think when they saw my home, but it turned out that none of them ever see it at all so I might as well be true to myself and collect all the My Little Ponies.
My (now) wife freaked out coming to my apartment the first time. Turns out, she’s a huge Rush fan:
In my living room at the time:
All I hear is “Eeeeeeeeeeeeee!”
70% sure she just married me for the TV.
The other 30% was the Dreamcast.
Edit: Where can I get a TV exactly like that? I assume you had to hunt for years and/or restore?
I was looking for an original to restore but there are problems doing that:
-
They are FULL of paper capacitors. All of which have to be replaced.
-
Once you do that, the set is still black and white and has no modern inputs, coaxial and dipole only.
So in my research, I found a tiny company in Dousman, WI who bought the Philco Predicta license. Not sure if they are still making them, keep in mind this was all 25 years ago. Was $2,500 + freight shipping.
Another lemmy gold.
Thanks for allowing me to learn cathodic TV this old was still manufactured in the US in 2018.

If you got money and really want something like it there’s eBay as an option potentially.
You’re looking for a Philco Television
Good luck! If you don’t have money to light on fire you might just have to accept the dream won’t become reality.
Some people also make art pieces either with or just as smaller reproductions. So that could be an option if you want something just aesthetically pleasing but still will be pricey.
Edit: I know that eBay link isn’t the exact same model but I’m like 99% it is a philco TV on the album cover
I was so excited until word four.
Working Man live in Rio… My lord
Maybe it was her first time seeing moving pictures? 😏
Those damn talkies ruined movies!
She, for sure, did mot married you for your cable management.
“Honey, will you marry me?”
um, I dunno…
“If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.”
That’s an awesome TV.
Has she now learned the rest of the alphabet?
I think she started with Y-Y-Z. :) Sorry, Rush joke…
I’m guessing D was learned early on
Yo PSOE1&2? I’d have married you too.
There’s Rush fans, and there’s deep cut Rush Power windows Fans
3 CD towers, but I’m counting only 2 CDs in them. Nice setup though
Yeah, bought them as speaker stands.
PSO? Fuck yeah.
That TV is sweet.
My husband was worried about bringing me to his apartment for the first time when we were dating because it was filled with tarantulas, scorpions, and snakes. Did not bother me in the slightest and I really got into keeping them too. I did put my foot down on centipedes though because fuck that (too fast, too hot).
Thats scolopenders right. Are there venomous centipedes?
They’ve got toxicognaths to shoot you full of venom with.
That dude is way too happy in that video. But that’s pretty close to the same pitch my husband gave me.
Y’all have vinegaroons? I kept one for a while. They’re amazing to “terrorize” children with.
We did have one for a bit. We did a whole arboreal tank set up and even got it to molt twice. They are amazing to watch.
Oops I was wrong we had a whip scorpion not a vinegroon. Husband just corrected me.
Too… hot…?
“Hot” in reference to snakes means venomous, and I know some centipedes have venom, so my assumption is that.
Yea I meant venomous. Hubby was trying to woo me on the idea of keeping Vietnamese centipedes. Serious look them up on YouTube if you want some nightmare fuel. We used to breed Deathstalkers so I’m not opposed to keeping hots but I’m also a safety oriented person.
My mate accidentally stepped on one of thous in Laos once and killed it. All i heard was a loud crunch.
Is this it?
nightmare fuel
Don’t kink-shame.
They’re like a hundred degrees, centigrade.
If you ever change your mind, you can just move into my place. Nobody invited the centipedes, yet every spring those creepy bastards find their way in.
If people can’t love you because they can’t accept that Fluttershy is best pony then that’s their loss.
You still have us. Brohoof /)
Best pony? But that’s not Rainbow Dash!
That’s a funny way to spell Cheese Sandwich.
Maybe I’m just your basic bitch*, but it’s Twilght Sparkle for me. I just like her look; last time I had my hair dyed it it was modeled after her mane / her anthro’s hair. I didn’t really like the show, but I only watched a few episodes.
* is that word gender-neutral in context, or should I be using “bastard” or something else?
Y’all are crazy. Grown adults going on about silly ponies.
The real G.O.A.T. (and I don’t mean Grogar) is Pinkie Pie. She’s fun, chill, suprisingly powerful, and got real backstory depth.
No clue. Everyone can like what they like IMO. And I’ve liked Weird Al for like 40 years lol.
Discord got me hooked. Cheese Sandwich made me realize there was never any going back now.
I’m a married man in a great relationship. Our office is covered with My Little Pony merch and posters.
She thought it was weird, but she liked it because it was weird.
Being anti-brony is a symptom of toxic masculinity. The Internet went after that fandom in a way I haven’t seen since furries.
You gotta admit part of it was probably deserved.
Like the fact that people were trying to create imaginary friend ponies using Buddhist meditation techniques, the existence of Cupcakes (and all attendant media), and the popularity of “clop” flooding Google images such that a lot of little kids probably saw pony porn while looking for pictures of Twilight Sparkle to trace….
I saw this as someone with a homemade Applejack perler bead on my refrigerator.
It is endless amusing that this whole thing started because some journalist lambasted Friendship is Magic for using Flash, /co/ got intrigued, and then the rest is history.
Sounds like all the same reasons people hate on furries. “You ruined ny childhood!” Bitch, you searched without Safe Search turned on! Rule43 is a curse for many.
The thing is that stuff has always shown up, even with safe search on. It’s sorta like you can image search any given Pokémon and there will be something lewd almost immediately.
I do think adults who enjoy children’s content have some responsibility in making sure that stuff isn’t as easily accessible. There had been an online adult My Little Pony fandom before bronies, which was far less toxic.
How would you explain this to a kid? Also - blue boards are supposed to not be technically SFW but lol that just means not porn
I just learned a lot about the pony fandom
I think it beats Henry Darger’s Vivian Girls. Darger totally would have posted to /mlp/ if he was alive though, so it balances out.
Might as well collect what you love…as long as you don’t keep them in jars it should be fine.
Don’t kink shame!
Every person I know including me is like “nah my place is way too messy, laundry everywhere, can’t meet there” so you just end up splitting a hotel for a bang
Stuff like this makes women seem incredibly judgemental, while also demanding to not be judged.
Can you point out where the ‘demanding not to be judged’ is in this comic?
Also ngl, if you’re an adult man who decorates like this and you don’t think other men are judging you, I’ve got some news for you buddy.
I wouldn’t mind Biggie Thanos if it wasn’t for the grind set trash

I agree with you. Why are those the only options ? Everyone is allowed to have hobbies and decoration taste.
Lol that Thanos poster is lit
You ain’t lying, not sure I agree with the sentiment, but fucking great execution.

Not sure why he’s praying, you’d think a titan wouldn’t have time for that sort of thing
To show off the stones. Also it’s another common biggie smalls pose.
He’s about to tell you something that’s going to be difficult for you to hear.
Nothing’s difficult for me to hear! I have the best hearing in the world! My ears are so strong, people always tell me
Praying? Look at how he is dressed… He is clearly about to go in for a 2 handed karate chop.
We used to call that Kirk-fu.
Shit, you’re right!
yea but without the stupid text
