Excuses excuses. Lrn2LR pls


I understand the excitement that comes with watching an event and expressing yourself when some play happens. I just don't see what I or the world gains from me participating in that. I've tried and it really just feels like casting feelings into an abyss (there few conversations except arguments about players/teams sucking). The only great things that I seen which come from it are the recommended game polls (which help vod viewers) but those don't require me to post to participate, or even keep up with the thread.

I mean, hey look, you posted and I came up with a long response where I tried to think things through and communicate. Isn't that more fun than the 50 crap posts I could have made in this time? Not that my posts are crap-free or always long but this is a conversation!


You can make the same argument for any subforum/topic in this place. Do we all really need to post about other games in the OT thread? Do we really need to talk about LoL/SC2/DotA2/etc, and not actually play it? Obviously not. It's mostly for the community aspect, and TL/LR threads specifically provide an outlet for these people to gather and talk about the games.

+ Show Spoiler +

or something like that anyways

Yeah, there is a huge community aspect to it. I feel like I'm watching the game with some buds and just chatting. Sure, there are times where the thread explodes with people reacting to plays, but there are also downtime where real discussion is had.


I'll take your word for it, though that has not been my experience. Going back to the original point, you directed me to LR as essentially an avenue to spam, not a place to have downtime discussion. If OT and LR were truly equivalent in terms of spammy vs not spammy style I wouldn't need to go to LR. It may just be a different community but that's just it: different communities attract different people, who post differently, with discrete qualities measurable and inexpressible, and as a result anniversary posts favor one community over another. Conspiracy of importance aside I'd rather just ignore them entirely and find my own meanings in numbers as I stumble upon each one, and if someone else decided to add a picture of a dog in a party hat to a post with some crazy number that they really liked for some reason (mathematical or otherwise) at least I'd think it was cool.

Had to change one of my trucks front headlights... Honestly, jesus fuck wow. Something that should be so easy and they make it so fucking hard. Had to take off the front grill and loosen a bolt underneath the truck by the wheel. wtf. Took so long for such a simple thing.


Yeah, today's cars are engineered really weird when it comes to basic things like that. My sister's car requires you to remove the entire fromt bumper (which is held on by very easily broken clips), and then to unplug the headlights you need to play with it at a weird angle and have small hands to even be able to do it. My dad had a lot of trouble and i ended up needing to do it. >_>


Replaced the headlight on my Focus, can confirm convoluted as fuck.

You compared it to TTGL. You said it was better than TTGL.

We're not in a fight. You're empirically wrong on so many levels that it's not worth fighting about.

The first half of that show was stupid as fuck. A bunch of fights and characters that had nothing to do with the story and all the main/secondary characters get little to no development at all until like episode 14. Out of 25. If I have to wait more than half of the entire run to get any sort of character or plot development, something's wrong.

It got considerably better in the second half, but the first part was so bad that I can't go any higher in good conscience.

A lot of the secondary characters in TTGL had the same treatment. Just saying.

A lot of the secondary characters in TTGL never got any backstory treatment at all.

Here's a test.

Out of all of the people in this picture, how many can you actually remember their names?

I literally rewatched TTGL a week ago and I can only name 3 people in that picture.


In fact, I'd say the biggest problem with TTGL as a series is how shallow and uninteresting the supporting cast is, and that this is the main difference between TTGL and KLK thematically, and they fixed it in spades.

Yeah, but all the main characters had development. The secondary characters holding out until the second half makes sense. If Simon was 1 dimensional all the way up until the time skip I probably would hate it as well. He, Kamina, Yoko, and even Viral get their early arcs in the first part. Ryuko doesn't change barely at all until parasol chick shows up in episode 11, hell the only character who seems to get any development at all is Mako (who was by far my favorite character next to Gamagoori).
