´I dropped this shit.

This show's context is absolutely retarded beyond belief.

I used to see the whole "kyoanus lickers" as a joke, but 3 episodes in on this show have proven me that this supposed joke, is in reality a very proven fact.

If you are enjoying this, you definitely like to eat shit by the spoon.

I still have hope that KyoAni goes back to the golden days of Haruhi and FMP, but judging by what's seen today... it becomes less and less lightly to ever happen.

>>10401659

I think all the studios are just going through a phase with literally retarded characters. Like that girl wasn't even shy, she was mentally retarded.

This show might be bad, but the sad truth is that it's still one of the best shows this season.

Full autism right here.
Never thought I see a real autistic girl portrayed in my chinese cartoon.

>>10401675
This is absolutely correct.

I am quite fond of right angles as well. And even numbers.

How come japan sucks at making good plots?
Honestly, japanese artstyle is much better but there are so many western stories with superior and intersting plot instead of stuff like this.
I don't even watch anime anymore because of completly unbelieveable plot and character progression.

And if they manage to make a interesting premise like Sword Art online they ruin it all with shitty plot

let me tell you ive been here far longer then you ever been. I know all of /jp/s history and even stuck with it and tired to protect it during the dark ages of 2010 to 2011, where it was so bad you guys couldn't even HAVE these threads with cock spam all over. sadly /jp/ has changed so much that i haven't. I still remember when /jp/ was a bunch of hard asses and didnt take no shit from anybody who didn't act like a elite. those days are long gone though.

``Who are you quoting?'' is my favorite Anonymous Jones meme. It's right up there with Suigin's ``meido'', Tokiko's ``NSJ'', and some new guy's spoiler misuse thing.
You can tell whether someone is a newfag or an oldfag by whether they use these memes seriously.

holy shit a unix timestamp of 2005 m(_ _)m

I love how anal and bitter people get when the issue of age/join date appears. Everyone always defends themselves and doubles their layers of irony.

One of the things I said was good to moot in 2003 when we were on Raspberry Heaven IRC together was that an anonymous board would stop the circlejerking on SA about who has the earliest regdate (e.g. mine was 2000). Now it's malironic because everyone on 4chan just tries to pretend they were here in 2010 to fit in. Meanwhile the actually oldbies are on IRC and >implying/>mfw/>tfw/whatevering it up.

>>10401910
I imagine most of the oldest people who aren't also (non-jokingly) autistic care little about how people greentext and surprise box their posts.

I'm not sure how of them routinely type like that themselves though, is it a lot? It's pretty shameful to type like that in your late twenties / early thirties. Then again, IRC always holds onto the worst people, so perhaps it's not surprising they would be doing that.

>>10401926
People just type more colloquially in IRC. For example, even the hardcorest 4channers type smilies because they're actually useful in a live conversation.

I guess it's largely tongue-in-cheek but not in a LE IRONICALLY META IRONY FAEC way /jp/ does it. It's just a bunch of kids in their twenties acting like retards for kicks.

>>10401910
>irc

Burn /jp/ down, moot.

Burn it all down.

>>10401926
I've seen people that type very formally in 4chan using emoticons on IRC.

>>10401938
not as gay as ur dad (bot|n of them lol)

It disgusts me to see people who got here a few months ago trying to play quality police. It's not that quality isn't important, it's that when you're that new and retarded you're going to fuck up more often than you don't.

I still avoid emoticons everywhere.

>>10401969
What about mailing lists and newsgroups?

>>10401937
I hadn't seen many emoticons (almost none) around a large group of them, when I was hanging around in one channel. I guess it depends on the atmosphere of the place.

I was probably one of the worst typists in the channel, since I tend to truncate my sentences when I want to type quickly in a conversation.

for example
I would type like this
it helps get my message across in a timely and active fashion

I think the only time I've used emoticons if typing to my sister when I don't really want to say anything specific but need to respond. I guess that's exactly it: emoticons seem like a cop-out on typing something useful.

>>10401983
I'm so used to typing in proper English that I always type properly in IRC. I always get the impression people think I'm stuck-up or trying to appear intelligent or something, but really it's just out of habit. sometimes i type a bit more like this, but I have to think about it so it takes longer.

>>10401977
Not that guy but I also avoid emotions everywhere, including mailing lists and newsgroups.
You will also never see me type down any time of internet-slang abbreviations in a context other than ironic shitposting.
I also tend type with a lot of ellipses in order to make myself seem serious and get my point across.

>>10401992
"emoticons" and "type"

Pardon my typos, I currently find myself rather occupied with several other affairs as I try to convey my opinion on this subject.

>>10402000
Nice trips.

>>10401992
It's sad, isn't it. You know that they are inoffensive and out of 4chan they aren't really seen as shitposting, but it's like your head splits when you see them somewhere else. At least, that's how I feel.

>>10401992
>I also tend type with a lot of ellipses in order to make myself seem serious and get my point across.
going out of your way to sound like a pretentious fag is a lot worse than just ditching the capitals

>I currently find myself rather occupied with several other affairs as I try to convey my opinion on this subject.
who even fucking types like that

>>10401992
Why, though? Some abbreviations and emoticons are genuinely useful. They are used by old hackers and programmers and have been for decades. I guess 4chan has that mindset where something becomes uncool if a certain group of people use it or popularize it, but I don't see why you would apply that anywhere else. Case in point, the Jargon File:
http://catb.org/jargon/html/go01.html

Full of abbreviations that are actually used. Same with the Internet Users' Glossary:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1392
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1983

Not to mention countless netiquette guides.

I understand wanting to write properly but I always think this sort of elitism is misguided. The only reason I can think for it is, "Oh, those people on some message board do it, therefore it's ruined!"
If I want to write a joke and it risks being misinterpreted as serious, I will add a ":-)" to the end. I'm not going to sacrifice brevity or add some catchphrase that ruins the joke ("pun intended!") because people on AOL or Gaia or Reddit happen to use the same three characters.

>>10402036
"Hackers" used to use l33tsp43k as well.

>>10402047
No we didn't.

>>10402047
I'm talking about hackers in the earlier sense of the word. I don't think anyone over the age of 20 has ever seriously used leetspeak.

Also I get that the meaning of hackers has changed and I'm not particularly anal about it, but I figured it was clear what kind of hackers I was talking about.

>>10402052
Don't lie, you chickenboner.

>pocky in her hair

That's fucking gross.

>>10402065
What's a chickenboner

>>10402036
>I guess 4chan has that mindset

This has absolutely nothing to do with a supposedly "4chan mindset" / influence.
I speak for myself on this matter at hand, so I cannot voice a general opinion on the matter; however in what relates to my situation, the answer lies simply in a key word, "preference".
I have always set out my preference to avoid any abbreviations & all types of slang whatsoever while typing in the internet through out the years, dating back to early 1998.
I am a responsible adult and therefor I impose myself to deliver my statements on this form; as I also expect them to be treated with a admirable eye and attention.
For the matter at hand, I for one also wished that more people in the current day and age would take their time to type a sentence properly instead of simply dishing out combinations of letters that make them look as if they have no cultural background whatsoever. But alas, the reality we live in is one that such a dream will never come to fruition.

>>10402034
>who even fucking types like that

I do and I am quite proud of the fact.
Do you perhaps have something against this...?

>>10402088
did not read

>>10402055
That is why I used quotes. It's just an example of stupid shit people did "because they could", thanks to the character set.

I can type ":-)" because it looks like a bit like a face, much like I can type "lol" or "0wn3d" because some retarded part of me thinks its cool.

>>10402088
I hate emoticons as much as you do, but you come out as pretentious and really tryhard by typing everything 100% correct to be seen as a "serious" and be treated with "admirable eye and attention".

>>10401989

I message fairly similarly to how I post, except I don't bother with capitalization aside from "I". Also, never ending my messages with a period. Periods are for nerds. Also, they always gives an undue air of seriousness or authority to anything you say, so that makes you seem stuckup

See what I did there? If I had said "Also, they always . . . so that it makes you seem stuckup." With the period, it lends so much more gravity to the entire thing! And here I am just trying to be jovial. Fuck you, periods! I'm onto you!

>>10402088
>>10402118
go back to somethingawful or whatever

>>10402110
It's quite alright..
I am used to being misunderstood on this subject. I simply chose to convey a little bit of my opinion on the matter in order to distract me from other, rather tedious affairs I find myself obligated to finish..
Take of it what you will.

>>10402088
>This has absolutely nothing to do with a supposedly "4chan mindset" / influence.

I just mean 4chan is cynical and its users are generally cynical to begin with. The sort of people who cringe at things, not quite sure how to phrase it.

>>10402088
>I am a responsible adult and therefor I impose myself to deliver my statements on this form; as I also expect them to be treated with a admirable eye and attention.

That's why I take fault with it. People in their fifties with PhDs don't think this way, only twentysomethings who feel emoticons and abbreviations are for people three years younger than them do. It's a desperate attempt to appear grown-up and intelligent, when intelligent grown-ups just take it easy. There is a functional purpose for jargon and smiley faces, but people who have a kneejerk bitter reaction to ":-)" are trying to ruin it.
"LOL" is another good example because it's fairly recent. It's nice to say, "That was amusing," without appearing like a sarcastic cunt ("That was hilarious!", "I am laughing", "Very funny") or being over-the-top ("MY SIDES HAVE LEFT ORBIT"). It's a functional and useful little neologism that serves a worthwhile purpose, but bitter nerds get offended by it since people on FACEBOOK or on FORUMS (4chan is never a forum to these people) use "LOL".

I get that you can take this thinking too far, but I think people should be more tolerant. One emoticon doesn't mean you're typing like a retard in the same way people who make their posts in greentext list format do, it just means you're adding something similar to a word to change the tone of what you wrote, in lieu of body language or tone of voice.

>>10402118

Also, when I go maximum colloquial, I do away with random letters. Fn fct, dd yu n tht as lng as te begng ad edng ltrs of a wrd are thre, yur brn fls in te blnks? It makes for a rather unique form of retardo-speech

this is how people who don't constantly have a cock up they're ass talk

This is how a faggot talks. All people who talk like this are, as they say, quite homosexual. Are you not inclined to agree...? Now please enjoy this giant wall of text because I am a huge faggot and dedicate my life to making long posts on pedophile forums because I am pants-on-head retarded.

>>10402143
I capitalize, but omit periods if it's only a single line.

I like long posts. /jp/ is a fast message board, but I read every post in every thread I care about and I'm far more likely to reply to longer ones.

Then again, this is why text/slow boards are better.

>>10402156
I am baffled at the fact on how you are able to have knowledge of such a video to begin with.

I type stupid fillers far too much.

"There are like, five of them."
"You can just graze her nonspell, or something."
"Why don't you just, you know, bomb it?"

Sometimes these are funny or cohesive when I see other people read them, but I take it too far. People have pointed it out in the past so now I make a habit of going back through my post and deleting them.

At least I don't qualify everything. People who do that are the worst.

>>10402156
What the fuck?

>>10402143
>they're

That aside, yes. I have never met a person who types all prim and proper in messaging that did not turn out to be a massive douchenozzle. On forums and 4chan, I can understand, but say you're on IRC, or on an MMO chatting to somebody. In those situations, it just makes you come off as stiff

Also, to this day I find it humorous how the intellectually inadequate need to puff up their metaphorical chests by busting out the thesaurus and injecting otherwise simple posts with a serious case of WORDS, sort of like what I'm doing right now. Anyway, I find it humorous because good writing finds ways to convey information quickly and aptly, which goes against the sort of writing philosophy that goes into writing great walls of texts

in the good old days of 4chan most people typed like this
i don't know when it become unacceptable to type like this

i also miss smilies :eng101: :sage:

>"they're... custom adult baby clothing, and..."
Yeah no.

>>10402167

You should consider how I (>>10401989) feel. I don't think I'm intelligent or anything, it's just how I'm used to typing. Please don't judge me. I don't think you're an idiot or beneath me or anything. In fact, I have only respect and jealousy for you. Please.

>>10402176
Lots of people used to type like gaiafags before we invented the term gaiafags (*fags). Everything is relative.

I do tend to be judgmental of people that seem completely incapable of a coherent sentence though, especially when they're typing in an environment that doesn't encourage it (for example, typing on a forum instead of typing while playing online games, the latter of which encourages truncation).

>>10402223

Are you le implying what I think you're le implying?

>>10402156
Those look pretty nice.

>>10401866

It won't. Tamako will get with her faggy friend from across the way.

If it were up to me she'd get with Shiori.

I instinctively begin sentences with capital letters and end with periods because it's programmed into my muscle memory. If you're so used to instant messaging your bros or playing games with your Steam groups and typin liek dis, then maybe you're a normalfag who should get out of /jp/.

Anon, I quite specifically said that forums and 4chan are one thing, and typing via an instant messager is another

Also, I find it funny to think that your entire post could've been replaced with "pls no bully ;_;" and it would've retained the same basic message. Funny in that cute way, not that "haha, what a faggot" way, I mean!
