It's hard to explain. I mean, everyone cracks jokes at each other all the time. That's what humans do. But making fun of an accent just has a whole ignorance type deal associated with it. I guess it's similar to making fun of someone for wearing a turban. I think this is really only an issue with us americans because we're so cut off from everyone. You're basically pointing out that you're not culturally well rounded and you bring your ignorance into the spotlight about a normal thing that most other people don't find unusual at all which is where the awkwardness comes from. I've lived in three countries and visited 16 in my life, I still make fun of accents including my own). Christ, I never understood this PC mentality. To me it sounded like iNcontrol made a joke, it sounded like he made an attempt to be funny. It did not sound like "omg fucking ignorant american piece of shit doesn't realize not everyone speaks english ffs". It was a joke. If you honestly believe making fun of an accent 'brings your ignorance into the spotlight' I get the impression that you've spent far more time arguing about pointless things online than actually travelling the world becoming 'culturally well rounded', as you put it. Then again I'm European, we just don't give a shit. I know as many jokes about Norwegians as the French have jokes making fun of Belgians, yet no one is shedding any tears over it. I'm European and have lived in 4 countries, as well. Not sure what that has to do with the subject. I think iNcontrol is too feeble-minded to pull off such jokes, and as a result I completely agree that it brought his ignorance into the spotlight. The worst part is that TLO seems like a sensitive and humble person, and the contrast in the two personalities is what made it really awkward to witness.

That's why I put it there. Not going to bother going further into this, everyone online is an expert at psychology after all. Just like how everyone is right.
Sure, okay. iNcontrol is ignorant and narrow minded because he made fun of an accent. I'm sure you have it all figured out.
Either way I found it mildly entertaining, some probably didn't. Just like some will love the podcast, some won't. It is what it is.

tape 26, side b. Incontrol makes a comment I'm not sure I agree with. We're going to need to send this to headquarters for psychoanalyzing

I will only be offended if Inc starts censoring himself, his thoughts are like a natural treasure that needs to be shared with all.
I just wanted to post that I can't wait until the next one because I want to hear all the thoughts players have regarding the recently announced upcoming patch changes.

INCONTROL
I AM SHOCKED
You said you'd be anyone's friend, and then ignore my request. By the beard- my faith in the starcraft community is completely shattered. Clearly, with your actions, you are a hypocrite and a liar. I will never be able to listen to this podcast again, as it is forever stained in my heart.
At least, that's what I would say, if I was ezze.
P.S. Incontrol is the best nick ever, Im jealous.

As someone who occasionally wears a hoodie (namely when it's cold and/or raining), I am deeply offended by your threats of insulting me, and take it personally. Do you realize this podcast is heard by millions across the world? Millions of people hearing you spread your vile, narrow-minded opinions about hoodies and the people who may wear them. I'll have you know I have now thrown out both of my iNcontroL posters, as well as my iNcontroL plushie. You've lost a fan sir.

Yeah the little WW2 troll was hilarous.
Anyways, impersonation has always been a legitimate form of humour. Sure it can be mocking and offensive, but it certainly doesn't have to be.
I'm surprised that no one has pointed out that inc also impersonated Tyler's voice. Tyler is very much American, so it's clearly not a matter of mocking foreign accents.
I'm pretty sure the reason TLO was relatively quiet is because that's just how he is. Sort of like Tyler, actually. Some people are like that. Just like inc can come across as obnoxious because he's very outgoing. People are different. The end.

to make up for it I will make fun of people without accents and who don't have hoodies on ok?

I think Incontrol's responses to all the offended people in this thread are funnier than anything he says in the podcast. Keep it up, you're hilarious and half the reason I listen every week.

I tell you what? I'm going to 1 up myself in the next podcast and make fun of Huk for wearing a hoodie during an interview dooming myself to hating resilient youth across the planet and avid hood wearers. roflflfl
xD GO iNcontrol!!

He made a joke about someone's accent. Stop reading into it. All this psychoanalysis over a single comment is just ridiculous.
Hey Incontrol maybe you should have 1 or 2 less plates next time you hit up your local buffet! OMG did i just make a fat joke? I must have self esteem issues.

Lol this thread turned from trolls trolling serious people to trolls counter-trolling the original troll. Way to go Incontrol, I'm deeply offended by the progress of this thread.

All is forgiven, and I took my posters out of the dumpster. One of them now has an old banana peel stuck to it.

I made fun of artosis for being a descendant of a jewey grasshopper and a shit eating vulture, no problem.
I make fun of Nony's monotone voice and losing to me in past events, no problem.
I make fun of German accents... HOLD THE FUCKING PHONE. HE DID WHAT? HE WENT THERE? EVERYONE KNOWS ACCENTS ARE SACRED AND HOLY. CALL UP ISLAM WE NEED TO FUCKING HEAD REMOVE THIS KID

'You can download it legally.'
Best part of the podcast.
Incontrol was super funny, and I don't think there's a reason to get angry about him mocking TLO's accent. Oh and the Tyler impression was spot on.
|
If you don't find German accents funny, there's something wrong with you.
|
geez, I can't even imagine how boring some of you must be in real life :/
I mean, when friends make fun of each other those things are not insults, that's called humor and it's ridiculous to whine about something like hat.
