lol!

Edit: Also, have the mods disabled smilies entirely from the board?

It's not porn. It's art. Maybe not in the best taste (as evinced by the fact that he hides the erection with a remote - Is it one of those big multi-function remotes, btw, or a dinky little A/C unit remote? Actually, forget I asked. ), but it's art. If it were a picture of a sexual act, then yes, maybe you'd have a point. But it's not. Just a dude ready for sexual activity... like we all are, first thing in the morning. A candid portrait, if you will.


Sorry, Rassah, to have dragged this out into the open again.

Yeah to each their own, but let's put it this way, I enjoy lesbian BDSM but that doesn't mean I'm going to spend over $1000 to have a gigantic picture of two women doing it plastered over my wall..... Well I might do it if I knew some deeply religious people were going to visit but that's another story

Like I said, to each his own. The only thing that differentiates it, in my mind, from "David," is the erection.

If it's just to cover the cost I can understand but then I end up asking "Who the hell wants a hentai picture that big being displayed for everyone to see in their house?" LOL

Thanks, myrkul. They are on my wish list.

Yup: Daemon.

This is really creepy. Do anyone know if this concept is used in fiction yet? It is an intriguing train of thought.

..... $300 for what is essentially a hentai drawing? People can draw whatever they like but as an artist even I have a hard time justifying that price, I look at paintings like the mona lisa etc. with their price tag like this:


It's how much for the original? O_O   <


If my art ever reaches those prices somehow feel free to burn it since I'll probably have put it on the internet anyway I think high priced artwork is a bit of a ponzi scheme.

Well.

Not my cup of coffee, but I might like if it were gender switched. Or at least not excited to see me. To each his own.

Yeah. Almost afraid to ask... Pics?

Or at least a detailed description?

Now I wonder about the coffee table 

And here I was thinking Rassah digged ass holes and after all he hates them...
That should teach me not to judge a person based on their cofee table!

j/k

The coffee table meme started with I.

Each and every time I've brought it up, it's only for humor purposes at Rassah's expense. Nothing more, and definitely nothing implied.

Taxing my memory, the way the whole thing started is that Rassah mentions his table, somebody makes a comment, then another, along with I (I think), then Rassah asks (states) why so much interest in my coffee table (paraphrased). It was at this point that I took the discussion to the nth degree, always continuing the dialog when some conversation detected such.

My true feelings about Rassah is that I fully trust him. I also believe that if between us we ever had a disagreement on some subject, it can be resolved via a dialog, or simply we agree to disagree and carry on.

Just as in a city, there are places on the internet that respectable people don't go. SA is one of those places.

I have to admit curiosity about that table, though.

Well, Something Awful does actually have a huge creative side, but... they seem to do this thing where they get so obsessed with some group or website that a lot of the members just collectively lose touch with reality. They don't just do that with furries or Second Life or Bitcoins either - I'm catching up with the Awful Kickstarter thread, and a whole bunch of people spent pages trying to argue that Penny Arcade's Kickstarter somehow violated the site's rules, even though it was exactly the kind of thing Kickstarter was created to fund, just because they hated Penny Arcade so much. They're also chronically and totally unable to grasp the fact that TV Tropes has always been really popular with feminists, because they've collectively decided it must be a bunch of misogynistic male geeks with Aspergers, and that's lead to much weirdness and cognitive dissonance whenever their perspective collides with external reality.

Actually, the Bitcoin thread is mostly relatively reasonable, the odd weird brainfart aside. (Apparently if you install the Bitcoin client it starts using your CPU to mine Bitcoins automatically, and building and launching satellites is impossible without a billion dollar budget. This no doubt comes as news to the people who actually develop the Bitcoin client and to the amateur radio groups and schools who've built microsats and put them in orbit, respectively.)

Who hates the haters?

I'm still looking for somebody to buy me a Account Registration Certificate for one Bitcoin.

Please, I know you'll read it

Who generalizes the generalizers?

Honestly the epitome of tl;dr & 'u mad'
