its pre time-skip when tsunade first arrives in town and rustles some jimmies shikamaru says something like "women are so troublesome" or "I don't really like women" or something then he goes into something like why he married his mom when she's so aggressive and domineering obviously hinting that shikamaru is going to get with tsunade (dem legs) who's also pretty aggressive and domineering It's hinted later who he gets with, pretty much everyone gets with whoever you expected tbh. The romance was very telegraphed. DONT SPOIL PLS WTF
It doesn't get as bad as Bleach, but the later chapters are still very standard.

Expecting anything terribly twisty from a Weekely Jump Shounen is the worst decision you're going to make.

that's because they know this is the off-limits general discussion thread
|
its probably intimidating joining a thread about random nonsense that moves at the speed of light if you don't know anyone.
|
It's much easier to manage once you figure out which posters to ignore.

I see stuff like this in a lot of race perception studies. Sure, you won't get most people to outright say racist stuff like "I cross to the other side of the street when I see a black man but not a white man" but even if we don't hold those views we still lean towards that kind of thing in ways that sociologists and neurologists have measured. Same thing with advertising. Sure we know they are trying to streamline us into buying their stuff, that's what advertising is for. But knowing that often doesn't remove our inherent bias and so that bias can be exploited anyways. If pricing everything at $9.99 instead of $10.00 didn't increase sales no one would do it and that's just one of a million small ways you can be manipulated.

The news posts are filled with "new" users, but interestingly they seem to be old TL accounts that just didn't post in the old LoL subforum. I see way fewer "January 2015" registered posters than I expected.

I get super white guilt-y when i'm walking to a store and a black guy walks past me "i hope he didnt think i scratched my arm because i was nervous around him, a fly was buzzing around me"
