rpanons | Shut up

Rundown:

rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.

>asking if i even know the definition of the word "shit" when you clearly don't

protip: "shit" is a more vulgar word for "feces"

saying that a webcomic is feces is as hyperbolic as saying it gives you cancer

neither is true, unless the webcomic was literally photgraphs of sculpted shit or printed out/published in a book made of asbestos paper

holy shit you're autistic

>implying you aren't

like i literally cant handle how stupid you are, and no that is no hyperbole

'x is shit' is a common statement that has been in use for decades at this point to get across that something is not very good

'that guy's shit at driving'
'he's a real shit batter'
'that guy gave me a shit deal'

it is not *literally accurate*, yes, but it is not hyperbolic to use a turn of phrase to describe your feelings for something.

You have all the social understanding and intellect of a fucking roomba.

you're not exactly a mentally adroit specimen yourself, sister

something isn't magically not a hyperbole just because it's been used as a figure of speech for decades

for example: "this stinks to high heaven" is at least as old as shakespeare but it's still hyperbole

if anyone has the social understanding and intellect of a roomba, it's you

This feels like a stealth parody of sjw stereotypes ("intent isn't MAGICAL").

lucky charms would be a stealth parody of sjw stereotypes then

because it's magically delicious

Complete with the random linking of stuff.

"anything that disproves my claim is 'random'"

good job

no it's not hyperbole, for fuck's sake

if you're not a fan of hyperbole, then how are you supposed to talk at all? I feel like the characters in gunnerkrigg are two dimensional. Oh shit, wait, no, I can't say that because they're literally two-dimensional since they're drawn, it doesn't make sense as a complaint.

you're making it sound like it's absolutely impossible to say anything in english without having to resort to hyperbole to say it

which is, funny enough, hyperbole itself

it's not literally impossible, but hyperbole is commonly used in our day-to-day life. Yes, whatever, even if saying something is shit is 'hyperbole', it's still my exact opinion. 'I do not like Gunnerkrigg Court' is too muted for getting across my feelings, and 'I hate gunnerkrigg court' is way too invested. 'Gunnerkrigg Court is shit' gets across my feelings.

lmao you just used 'adroit' in a fucking sentence

you really do have autism

i'd love to see you tell an english professor they're autistic

tbh they probably are

hyperbole =/= figurative speech

pretty sure everyone else here gets that

Gunnerkrieg Court fans, everybody.

it's cute because you think i'm a fan of that comic

its cute that you're pretending you're not

i don't have to be a fan to argue with an anon who doesn't understand hyperbole, brosis

you have to be a fan of sucking cocks maybe

Protip: proverbial language isn't always hyperbole. Unless you take everything literally.
