[QUOTE=FFStudios;19611645]I was bored as fuck at school today and I could not get the "Europe vs USA" fight in the LMAO (now called Lame-o in my opinion) out of my head and it just pissed me off to no end. First things first, I mean do you have THAT much time that you need to dedicate it to finding things to one-up your country vs. Europe? Surely you have better things to put time towards. Maybe you can use that thing you have called "creativity" instead of just SIMPLY being a basement dweller. Judging by some posts I've seen, that seems the be overly hard for you guys. Join date elitism, holy shit, the fact that you've been on this forum for 4 years [b]is not an achievement, it should be an insult[/b]. May be hypocrisy here because I'm an 08'er but it just get fucking annoying. If you're from 06/07 that means you've been on Facepunch for 3-4 years, I personally don't find that to be something to be proud of at all. That means you've been using your time for something as silly as an internet forum. I registered in 08 and pretty much lurked for the first couple of months just because I thought the threads were pure hilarity and the videos/pics were fresh and also funny. This, this, is fucking annoying as hell, it doesn't even matter how you play it, games are game, either way. [b]Mac vs. Windows[/b] The whole reason I wrote "Windows" instead of "PC" is because they're both PC's. They have different OS's for different uses. Stop fuckin around. Those are only two types of elitism I see daily, I mean there are more but I can't name them off the top of my head. I mean, doesn't anyone agree? Or am I just taking a shot in the dark? tl;dr: Scatman John died just a little over 10 years ago today, I miss him so much[/QUOTE] ok
[QUOTE=RusMar;19612619]This thread is pointless. Seriously, everyone knows that everyone hates elitists and are tired of common USA vs UK debates.[/QUOTE] Of course everyone is tired of it, the USA is the best and any debate always ends with raged people. The best option is just to accept it.
I was about to open my pie-hole but then didn't. I just laugh at stupid people going at it [editline]09:51PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Hunterbrute;19612677]Of course everyone is tired of it, the USA is the best and any debate always ends with raged people.

So what... are we suppose to all drop arms and make a fucking hippy circle? People will always be trying to up themselves over others for the pettiest of reasons. Start finding your petty elitest perks now or you'll be eaten alive.
I agree, there are so many guys in here who joined later than me and achieved far more and I'm quite ashamed of that.
OP, one more post and you'll be a gold member. So don't post or you'll have wasted enough time to become one, then you'll be a gold member elitist. Basically, stop posting.
Obviously xbox is obviously far more obviously superior in graphics and obviously speed than a good gaming computer and obviously halo3 is best game ever made, silly people playing boring half life 2 or team fortress 2.

You've got almost double my post count, and I joined in 05. How am I wasting my time on an internet forum when I barely come here?
[QUOTE=FFStudios;19611645] Join date elitism, holy shit, the fact that you've been on this forum for 4 years [B]is not an achievement, it should be an insult[/B]. [/QUOTE] You have more posts than me.
I like facepunch, it's one of the few good forums around. How is it bad that I've been using it since January 05?
[QUOTE=radioactive;19611670]I've been here since November 2005. How is that an insult?[/QUOTE] Because you've wasted your time making more than 8 thousand posts :smug:
Europe can slam the United States all it wants and everything is all well and good but as soon as Americans say anything to their defense or try to get back at them they're branded as a bunch of blind, stupid, elitist patriots
The only elitism I agree with is PC over consoles. Because PC is better. Any other elitism is fucking retarded though. Especially join dates.
Elitism is a form of competition. Humans are a competitive species, hell, all animals are. It's a biological trait. However, I do not condone some of the elitism. I hate it when people here bash others for console gaming. Who the fuck cares what their platform is. Mac vs. Windows? Who cares? They both have different applications and different user bases. The list goes on. On another note, I see elitism being paired with the bandwagon effect. I absolutely hate bandwagoners. They don't think for themselves. This includes posts such as quoting someone and saying, "this" or "yeah, XYZ is dumb" with no reason or logic behind the response. It's really damn annoying. If you're going to defend someone or agree with something, post your own logic and reason behind it instead of just jumping on the bandwagon and saying "this."

[QUOTE=FFStudios;19611645] tl;dr: Scatman John died just a little over 10 years ago today, I miss him so much[/QUOTE] That makes no sence. A little over, 10 years ago today. It's like saying unprecisely, preciselly 10 years ago. Unless you are counting the hours. And BTW, he died the 3rd or december 1999. So you fail in everyway possible.
[QUOTE=Master117;19613316]I'm not sure if you're trolling or what, but I sure as hell am not going to feed it by providing a counter-argument.[/QUOTE] No trolling here good sir, just stating the facts. [QUOTE=Loompa Lord;19613338]Oh the irony.[/QUOTE] :dominic:
pc is beter then n00b consoles llllooollll retards dont you guys agree aren't we pcers beter then those neandrithal fags
[QUOTE=Loompa Lord;19613338]Oh the irony.[/QUOTE] yeah that one was priceless haha. "OMG MAC'S ARE DUMB BECAUS THAY COSTS LAIK 1500 MOAR MONEYS... CONSOWL GAMURS ARR STOOPIT WHEN THEY DON'T BUY GAMURR PeyCey's" TL:DR: he hates on macs because they're expensive. then hates on console gamers because they don't buy 1500$ pc's to play the excact same games he plays with a minimal extra shine. OP's right, it's no achievement at all to be an 06'er iff you're full of shit. it's an achievement to be a user who doesn't spew shit at everyone. no matter your join date.
They're all good... Play the fucking game...
[QUOTE=KmScMT;19613440]pc is beter then n00b consoles llllooollll retards dont you guys agree aren't we pcers beter then those neandrithal fags[/QUOTE] yeah, we're awesome for spending 700-1200 more to get a little more shine... yay us. my tactic is console untill late gen, then PC... most shine for your buck.
elitism is everywhere, it's in politics, school, even a new job and probably your family deal with it
OP is angst 15 year old that doesn't realize elitism is a core part of society.
Elitism is great when you're the oppressor.
