[QUOTE=absolalone111;47004014]i dont mind that, but when youve got people making out in public, nah
this isnt even because im single and bitter, a lot of my non single friends also share this view[/QUOTE]
I developed a hatred for pda only against furries
a long time ago when I was in high school, we had fuckin furries. They would walk around with tails and ears and would have huge goddamn headphones wrapped around their necks ALL the time. They would sit at their lunch table making weird squeak noises while rubbing their faces together and it was just so cringy and I just uuuuguhhh
[QUOTE=absolalone111;47003109]pda is fucking disgusting no matter your gender, age or sexual orientation[/QUOTE]
I used to heckle kids in high school when they'd be playing tonsil hockey in the hallway.
But I don't see a problem with hugging and holding hands either. No fluids are exchanged and it looks okay to do in public.

As for my unpopular opinion of how our language works, this is a terrible use of "homophobe". When you say it like that, all I see are people who overract like an "arachnophobe" to a picture of a spider. It just doesn't seem like the right word to use to describe a dislike.

especially if you have no problem with gay people but the thought of like, idk, gay sex makes you feel uncomfortable. I wouldn't call them a homophobe, I mean we all have preferences and it doesn't mean they're a bad person at all.

Thinking gay sex is gross when you're straight is fine. The problems arise when you try and make laws/commit violence against gay people because you think their sex is gross.

You don't have to agree with him but he's not exactly irrationally hating anyone.
I mean I'm pretty live and let live regarding that, but that goes both ways. If someone doesn't like something, oh well what can you do.

Don't think so literally about how our language is put together imo. If you really look, there are a lot of things we say that make no sense at all. I'd just accept the implied meaning of things and move on.

He paints gay people as if they were all flamboyant clones instead of a diverse group of people with differing attitudes, histories, and tastes.
Confirmation bias. And yes, heterosexuals do flaunt their sexuality, but we're desensitized to it. Talking about "getting laid" and "how hot is X" are flaunting. Also see TAU's post.
[QUOTE=BlueChihuahua;47004717]He paints gay people as if they were all flamboyant clones instead of a diverse group of people with differing attitudes, histories, and tastes.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, but he's clearly having issues with the vocal minority that does just that, while having no problem with the others. He's having more issues with those certain traits of that minority rather than it being an actual sexuality issue. Obviously he's gonna underline the group the irks him, he won't rant about things he doesn't have a problem with, that would be silly.

If that's how you see it you're not much different, berating someone for having a different point of view and acting differently, just as he appears to do the minority of people - as said in my previous post not tied to sex - but to their behavior.

Phobias are fears [B]OR[/B] extreme dislikes. If I'm a Francophobe, it doesn't mean I'm afraid of the French, it means I don't like them.

He called them faggots and said he doesn't approve of homosexuality. That's homophobia.
Saying you don't like homosexuals because you are straight and prefer woman is one thing, saying you don't like homosexuals because they're men who are attracted to other men is another.

Can't argue with that.
If someone's been harassed by a gay person, then that's just a bad person. Gay has nothing to do with it.
The bad ending for Bioshock 1 would actually be a good way to set the stage for a new Freedom Force game.

I don't think i've ever played a game with the same teams even twice in my 2,000+ hours of league

Care to explain?
[QUOTE=asteroidrules;47006043]Care to explain?[/QUOTE]
Obviously Chuck E Cheese was designed for mice. Kids just came along and started having fun out of nowhere. They never kicked the kids out because that's their only source of income. Mice use cheese as their currency and cheese doesn't pay the bills.
I personally liked Legend of Korra more than The Last Airbender, not for the "Lol Bisexuals! Korrasami!" the set pieces, action, and some of the story lines were a lot more enjoyable. Granted I was like 8 when TLA first aired and loved it to death as well.

"Public display of affection" is such a weird term, it always sounds like a robot or lawmaker trying to describe human behaviour.
[QUOTE=FunnyStarRunner;47005481]I don't get the popularity behind MOBAs. What's the big deal?[/QUOTE]
People find them fun, maybe?
I'm sure people find MOBAs fun, like any other game. Sure, it's fun to jump on the bandwagon of "lol bad game, russians/brazilians cyka blyat!" when it comes to Dota and League, but they're games like any other. They involve lots of strategy if proper communication is present, but just because they're fairly new-ish games doesn't make them bad. Give it time, more people will soften up to them.
