Yeah Olivia Black, she apparently ended up getting fired(not for the picks they were a few years before she was on the show and the producers knew that).
Most of the hated people in SH who subsequently got banned were largely attacked for differences in opinion than for any inherent shitposting there.
i haven't been on SH for weeks, but I can predict with absolute certainty the following threads will exist on the front page there:
an anti-israeli thread by Lamar or Starpluck filled with people circlejerking about how israel and all of the people within are equivalent to nazis
an anti-feminism thread by Rangergxi (sometimes) filled with people circlejerking about why a feminist who criticizes a game should be strung up and shot
a thread about some poor bastard getting shot, before suddenly the entire fucking FP gun lobby rushes in to say "don't criticize guns! they have nothing to do with this!" or "don't talk about guns, what about the tragedy!"
a thread about how terrible capitalism is by seed eater or some other fossilized communist desperate to find if there are any idiots left who still think marx is relevant
another fucking russian thread by laserguided, with a couple of russian posters inside decrying the actions of some politician or group in ukraine
a thread by a Swedish highschool reject about immigrants or moslems
one thread about how based pope francis is
a thread in which half of the people misinterpret some scientific discovery
point is that its a terrible place to find much decent because half of the time its either a very predictable circlejerk or the source in itself is biased or factually incorrect.
bogeymen are invented as well (anybody remember the sanius squad?) or people are otherwise assumed to hold views that they do not actually hold
SH is horrible
I thought that was well established

A lot of the hypocrites from there post in this thread too.
Generally when I post in SH it's an actually interesting piece of news like the new Pink Floyd album. Or some sort of post to get me some funnies.
idk I don't take SH all that seriously.

I hate this "stealing is ok if I do so by being clever and gaming the system" attitude so much.
"Darude-Sandstorm" meme is worse than Doge and rage faces
Doge and rage faces are better memes than Darude-Sandstorm.

For me SH is like /b/ on 4chan somewhat. I know I shouldn't go there, but I can't keep myself from coming back, it's just wonderful.

I don't even get where it came from. It's just a kinda average early 2000's electronic track, I guess? Where's the joke?

The joke is that every time someone asks "hey man what song is that in your vid?", that people respond with Darude - Sandstorm. Apparently it's funny to be misleading.
I dont get all the hype about the newest Super Smash Bros or Mario kart and such at all
Guess i just didnt grow up with nintendo so i simply cant relate

Twitch streams of mobas with random music playing in background. People asking for song names in the stream chat every now and then. Sandstorm is on. Everybody demands to know the name of that unidentified fancy tune of their childhood with no lyrics. Stream chat explodes with half the folk asking for the name of the song, half replying with darude - sandstorm. This goes on long after the song had finished. Meme is born.

maybe go in with the same mindset that you should for /b/
pretend no one is serious and everyone is lying
[QUOTE=ImpSnob;45315412]and it's the only show on the History channel with a Suicide Girl model on it :P[/QUOTE]
That intern was a Suicide Girl? Hot damn.
And yeah, Pawn Stars is only getting better. I fucking love that show.

Some people like Mario Kart and/or Super Smash Bros.
It's common that people who liked a certain game/movie/book would get some kind of hype after seeing a sequel/next edition getting announced.

Portland, OR is overrated.
Having a silent protagonist for the sake of immersion never worked for me

Worse yet is when there's no in-universe explanation as to why you're playing as a mute who can only grunt or groan in pain while they systematically slaughter everyone in the world who stands between them and their goal.
"he's just mysterious!" or "he's designed to make YOU feel like the character!!!!!" are not valid excuses.
[QUOTE=Blazedol;45322531]Having a silent protagonist for the sake of immersion never worked for me[/QUOTE]
i can't say it worked as well as i expected it to when i found out that's what it was about, but it definitely works better than in games like dragon age II where you choose the most neutral possible phrase and end up insulting your friend and all of his ancestors or some shit
If someone is a racist and genuinely believes their race is superior to others but they still would never hurt or kill anyone because they know it's wrong, and if a murderer kills the racist guy anyway, the murderer is a worse person than the racist himself.
I know I'm going to get a lot of shit for this and probably get banned for having sympathy towards racists even though I'm not one, but this is what I believe.
I would think being against murder is a pretty popular opinion, even if the victim is an awful asshole.
iphones are fucking terrible and should just stop.

It's not, really.
Though I might just be saying that because I take that opinion to the god damn extremes. Like, if a serial rapist gets stoned and beaten to death for what he's done, than to me it's still petty vegence. Though the killer is at least still understandable.
I suppose all I can say is that morals are strange.

In that case, one would be comparing the morality of a serial rapist to a murderer of a serial rapist. Two wrongs certainly don't make a right of course, but I'd rather be trapped in a room with the latter than the former.
New york style pizza is garbage.
I actually like a small amount of mainstream rap music now, probably because of Saints Row.

I tend to like the rap that don't take itself seriously, like Saints Row music and random covers made for fun.
