  1. I actually like pewdie as long as he is playing a horror game. The others are overly forced. 

    But you gotta admit his reactions to even the simplest horror games are overacted. No one screams like that just from a jumpscare. That makes me dislike him. True that some people like to see "funny" reactions to horror games, but my personal preference is just the natural interaction between the game and the player instead of just the entertainment.

     

    That's why I probably love Carnage so much, because he often, and I believe intentionally, mocks Pewdiepie for overacting. He gets through a jumpscare and might say a single 'Fuck' somewhere if even that and then continue with: "Oh, was I supposed to scream there? Wait, wait, let me do it again." and then comes an underacted scream. I think that's hilarious. :D


  2. Okay I have no idea whether a thread of this kind already exists, but if it does, a moderator can feel free to delete my topic. Though, I think I did search through at least this section of the forum and didn't find anything of sorts. It might be somewhere else but um... okay, just delete this if it's already somewhere out there, and please point me to that topic. Thank you.

     

    So, to few the two-letter combination "LP" is already familiar, to those who it isn't, I'll explain it:

     

    The letters LP come from the words Let's play, or Long play, meaning a recorded playthrough of a game. There are usually the players commentary involved, but not always. LPers, again, are, of course, Let's players or Long players - the people who play and record these games for an audience to watch.

     

    Hail the era of youtube, when you don't have any gaming shows on TV anymore and actually have to go to youtube to find one. 

     

    Probably the most well known LPer and a youtube icon is Pewdiepie. Go check that out if you need to.

     

    So like, this is a topic where you can share your ideas about the whole phenomenon of LPing, share your favorite LPers and ask for similar kind of people on youtube you might enjoy, in case you've watched everything your favourite LPer has done and can't wait for another week to watch more. Easy there, gal, stay in your panties.

     

    Until now I've followed quite strictly only 3 LPers:

     

    Mangaminx - I started out with her. Can't even remember how and when, but I still keep following her videos. She has nice game choices. Too bad I don't enjoy co-op games that much, so recently she hasn't offered me as much as before.

     

    Carnage - aka Mark. A bit less known LPer on this list, with only a couple of thousand subscribers. But he's hilarious! If you love an honest player who doesn't overreact to games and has a quirky, dark sense of humour, you'll love him. Apparently he also sounds like Stephen Merchant, so he's got that going for him. Also his jokes can be pretty sexist. And racist. And overall very offending to everyone.

     

    Laeppavika - A Finnish gaming group. Every nerd in Finland knows about them. They're pretty iconic here, I'd say.

     

    My recent finding is Cryaotic. I usually enjoy only British LPers (dunno why. The accent appeals to me, I guess), but this guy has an awesome voice. It's like fucking pissing honey on a bowl of melted dark chocolate. Divine. 

     

    All these have in common the fact that when I have found them, they've at least partially concentrated on horror games. I really can't bother watching much other games... unless it's Laeppavika or Carnage, since then I'll be watching the LP because of the commentary, not because of the game. Most LPers just don't have what it takes to comment everything interestingly enough that the game doesn't matter anymore. I just love horror games, arite?

     

    So, everyone's welcome to discuss about LPing and LPers here. Except Pewdiepie fans.  Ahhahaa just kidding, even Pewdiepie fans are welcome. It's not your fault that you have an awful taste and your LPer is a disgrace to the whole gaming community! NO! I mean..! I like pudding. See ya.


  3. I gotta say I don't believe in astrology the slightest. Mostly because everything it has ever told about my sign hasn't really applied to me. Except creativity. I'm a libra. And yes, very creative. But my ex who was a scorpio was also very creative so... :D Then a lot of horoscopes and stuff tells that libras are supposed to be either balanced or seeking for balance. Fuck that. I act on impulse and can be difficult to deal with due to having a particularly strong nature. :3 So yeah, nothing has been able to prove that having been born on a certain day would somehow affect my nature or future. At least the way it's "supposed to".


  4. @Gaz, okay, let me ask you something. Does being nice mean pretending to you? I mean, heck, that's my natural reaction to everyone I ever meet but oh well, whatever floats your boat. If you like to hate everyone you see on the street then go for it.

     

    Next, I'm gonna quote Ghandi: "Eye for an eye will leave everyone blind." So no, I didn't tell you to become friends with the person who bullies you. THAT would definitely be pretending. But also, revenge is not the option either. "I hate you because you hate me" is comparable to children playing on the playground and for no reason one child comes up and hits another one in the head with a shovel. Would you instruct the victim to hit back? I wouldn't. That'll just end up in both having their head open and one finger missing. Even the stupidest child will stop hitting after he notices that nothing happens. And eventually get really frustrated about nothing happening. And probably get grounded for hitting another child. In the end - yes., the victim was hit with a shovel, but he was the one who won the fight.

     

     

    believe me, it's a really disgusting feeling when you like person and think that s/he likes you too but it turns out s/he hates you and say shit about yourself behind your back, ugh. 

    Uhh... what? So... when someone bullies you and you still keep acting nice to them, they'll feel shit about themselves because they actually think you like them and FOR SOME REASON THEY'RE CONCERNED?

     

    No, they don't give a shit whether you like them or not. You can pretend you're a fucking unicorn for what they care.

     

    But, if you make yourself appear stronger, independent and self-confident, like "No matter what you say to me or think of me, I'm not gonna care, but just keep smiling to you when we meet, as if you were a nice-looking house plant." That's a fucking emotional pwnage right there. Why would anyone bother bullying something, that isn't moved by the bullying in any way? That's like bullying a mountain.

     

    My point is to say: Being nice to your enemies is not pretending. It's like you never heard what they said about you. Their words are not even that important.


  5.  

    In addition to your defence mechanisms in bullying situations I'd advice people to be nice to everyone. That'll both eventually get you new friends and annoy the shit out of your bullies. 

     

    Yes, it's true bullying isn't restricted only in school, but also in the streets, hobbies, home, and work. For me the latter has been quite the hard part, and I've even had my shift manager bully me by humiliating me in front of other workers and clients. I've also had a couple of my co-workers pinpoint how wrong I do stuff without bothering to tell me how to do things differently. And one of my co-workers just plainly said "What the fuck do you care about me? You're just a co-worker." 

     

    But eventually I've learned, that being nice and acting normal even around the people who bully you is the best defence you can have. That annoys them so much, like their words never meant a shit to you. And everyone else around you will see how much of an upper person you are, not getting involved or trashy about the whole situation, and treating even your enemies equally. 

     

    But that's the hardest defence as well. When you've had your whole life someone always bullying you and putting you down, it's really, really, really hard to suddenly be nice to everyone. But trust me, it pays off. It might not seem like it at first, but it pays off in the end. You'll see that pretending you don't give a hoot about bullies will result in you actually not give a hoot about bullies. And other optimistic, nice people, that you wanted to surround yourself with to begin with, will suddenly, just like that, be drawn towards you. 

     

    So don't be scared to be overly happy, optimistic and smiling. If for no other reason, then at least to annoy your bullies.


  6. He tries too hard to be Asian.

     

     

    Cuz think about it.... What do most people on youtube do? they try to be more weeabo.

    I've seen porn about a larger lady inserting a honeydew melon up her vagina, and whereas I do not associate that with Asians, I think that's actually the case here.


  7. ^ You might suffer from a lack of a vitamin. My cuticles are always extremely dry and they crack and tear off and bleed and what not. Doctors say it's because of a lack of certain vitamin B that can only be gained through shots. So... maybe you're suffering from a lack of a vitamin as well? Maybe not the same vitamin but some sort of vitamin.


  8. Things my significant other does that makes me go aww are the times when HE STOPS MENTIONING THE TIME WHEN I ACCIDENTALLY SPOKE FINNISH WHILE ASLEEP. Thank you.

     

    No but real, I love it that we have sort of a competition going on that he tries to come up with the most pun-y, lame and corny pick up lines to embarrass me, yet he never succeeds. :P

     

    Like yesterday, after playing Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth, he said "You put the 'cute' in prosecute." Oh god that's so awful that it made me giggle.


  9. One word: IKEA. Bought everything, man, EVERYTHING.

     

    Mainly I went there for a shoe rack since my shoes are kinda just a disorganized pile in my hallway. But I ended up buying some plates and bowls as well, and coat hangers, and just everything. Stuff.


  10. Hey dog ppl!

     

    Do you have any ideas on how to get a reluctant dog to fetch? I mean, my dog is a fucking genius. She only a year and a half old and already knows a ton of really useful commands (not circus tricks though), like left, right, stop, lie down, wait etc. And she's so bright that I'd like to compete with her.

     

    The only problem is that um... she doesn't know how to fetch. Like, she has the usual "hunting instict" that she'll go after a moving object, but as soon as the object (whether it's a ball or a stick or a plush toy) stops moving, she loses interest. Sometimes she takes the object into her mouth, but leaves it halfway. If I bring out treats she'll forget the object instantly and come for the treat. 

     

    If anyone has any ideas on how to get her to fetch, I'd be happy. :'D


  11. I just finished reading Junji Ito's Uzumaki. Heck that was one weird horror manga. And the ending was lame.

     

    So uhh if everyone knows any good horror mangas out there with horror as it's main genre (and not like fantasy adventure with horror-ish themes), recommend me some. But no Junji Ito anymore. I think I'm done with people being obsessed with spirals and girls regenerating from tiny pieces.
