View Full Version : Disturbing bumper sticker...

I was driving back from my girls house today and ended up behind some Talon. At first, all was well, shitty car, probably shitty person driving it, 5 minutes from home, nothing to worry about until...


I SAW IT....












A GIANT BUMPER STICKER ON THE BOTTOM OF HIS BUMPER THAT READ I <3 (BIG READ HEART HERE) HENTAI. :ohdear:

UGH

Worst part is, I know the kid (not as a friend, just as a passer by). He works at the local game spot and I think is either not all there or just plays WoW too much, leaning towards the later becuase he's 300lbs and looks like a bum.

Err, aside from not having any appreciation for production values, realism, and the non-existence of phallic tentacle monsters, I don't really see how liking hentai could really be shown to have a causal relationship with poor character...

I don't really understand why people would want to look at hentai, but I also don't understand why people would want to look at straight anal sex, and I'm sure a fair bit of people claiming to be disturbed by this sticker like that, so...

And from the way you describe this guy, shouldn't you have seen this coming?

People like hentai because you can have them do things that are impossible in the real world. Or girls doing things that would never happen in the real world. Depends what fetish you have.

ICEE
July 22nd, 2009, 02:03 PM
I don't see how this is more or less disgusting, or a negative reflection on society, than a bumper sticker that just says "I <3 PORN". The fact of the matter is that it isn't as freakish as you people seem to make it out to be, being turned on by drawings. While I believe it hints at immaturity of some sort, I also have a theory that porn is the original reason cavemen painted on walls.

The anime hentai fanboys you come across are comparable to the screaming flamer gays. Not all of them are that way, but some of them are.

If you want to know why I've always hated anime and why hentai-lovers and furries are pretty much the only two groups I inherently dislike until they prove me wrong, it's that. Nine out of ten that I come across are absolutely obnoxious and seem hellbent on either converting me to their 'cause' or making out that I'm Hitler Mk.II for reacting badly when they force-feed me that shit.

Here's a wild, craaaaazy thought rossypoo
They only seem like the majority because the rest don't go parading down the fucking street over it. Perhaps the majority actually arn't represented by the few try-hards you've met? Perhaps people you've known for years and consider "normal" are actually "one of them"!!

Lets judge the majority based on the experiences of the few!
Dare I say...
Dole.

And anyway, is it so hard to just.. walk away?

rossmum
July 25th, 2009, 02:58 AM
Several of my best mates who I otherwise consider normal will go on and on for hours about anime when it's brought up and it's absolutely maddening. I know a fair few who are some of "them", but they're fine; I know my friends pretty well and I can tell you now that the anime/hentai brigade aren't the majority.

Honestly the thing which bugs me most is just the sheer lack of rationality behind it. I can't imagine how it's at all possible that there are people out there more attracted to bad drawings than the real thing (don't even start me on fetishes). Fair enough it's their choice and MOST of the time it's not bothering anyone else, but then some idiot comes along and starts parading it about like some kind of honour badge. To bring up an example, I don't claim to have met every furry going but I've run into quite a few. A number of them were just fine but it seemed for every one I'd consider a decent person, another two would appear who couldn't go two minutes without telling everyone they were a furry and then absolutely blowing their lid at anyone who so much as gave them a funny look. That might not be the majority overall, but out of a (truly) random sample (unlike Dole's 'logic' regarding Russians and whatnot), it doesn't really help their case when the majority are confrontationist, over-defensive idiots.

Weird is pretty subjective and as weird as it may sound to you they probably find anime and hentai normal and they want to know why you can't keep a lid on your "weird" fetish for normal women.

So basically,

Because "the majority" of people you have met who are into it are "confrontationist, over-defensive idiots"

Even though you said that "MOST of the time it's not bothering anyone else"

Hentai and anime suck and so do the people who like them.

I don't know what happened to the once fine logic in Rossland, but something seems horribly awry. I don't remember all of the details, but I think when Dole was condemning an entire group of people based on negative experiences with a small sample compared to the entire population, we said he was overgeneralizing.

Like hentai? Shut up, we don't care.

Dislike hentai? Shut up, we don't care.

My main beef with anime itself is the way it's somehow pushed all and sundry off a cliff and seemingly has brainwashed a whole shitload of people into trying to be something they're not. Granted not everyone who likes anime tries to be Japanese, but all the same a fair few do. Now this probably won't make much sense to you guys, but if there's one thing I hate as much as bigots (yeah, irony, whatever) it's posers. If you're not something, then don't fucking try and be. The kids pretending to be in the forces when they don't know shit, the kids pretending to be Japanese when they're whiter than porcelain and have never been out of their own country... they're all the same to me, which is to say tryhard shitheads who aren't worth the air they breathe. I'm also pissed because some (not many, thankfully) of my best mates now talk about almost nothing else. They're still my best mates, but I get excluded from conversations constantly because the only thing they give a damn about in the world is anime. Now I'm all for liking things a lot, but when it hits that point, it seems problematic to me.

Hentai is kind of related, I guess. I mean, let's take anime out of the picture for a moment. Are the kinds of people who are into hentai still going to find cartoony teenage girls more attractive than actual women? I kind of doubt it, to be honest.

Call me ignorant, because on this subject I probably am, but it just seems to me like anime came along and brainwashed a decent portion of our generation in one fell swoop.

There's always going to be tryhards and posers in almost anything, that's no reason to hate anime... As for your friends... That's unfortunate, but it's not really a reason to suddenly gain hate for anime. Hell, talk to 'em about the issue. If they're your best friends then you should be able to do that much.

As for hentai, once again, what's it matter?

Brainwashed? No. Started an obsession for some? Yes. Anime is just like video games in that aspect.

However, people who are obsessed with, for example, Halo don't go and learn the language of, say, the Elites.

BUT, people DO go and learn Klingon in Star Trek. Even then, there aren't full-fledged NOVELS printed in Klingon.
I know a few people who were pretty normal, then they went and found anime. From there, they started to cosplay daily and read books printed entirely in Japanese.
I think Ross has a point.

Ok now you're saying anime is the problem? Look man, I'm not obsessed with anime, but I'm a pretty damn big fan. I talked to you yesterday... did I mention anime once? No... why? I know its not one of your interests.

Its people who allow their obsessions to make themselves socially inept. It has nothing to do with anime or anything of the like.

This was towards Mobster.

E: Oh yeah this thread was originally about a bumper sticker. :downs:

Learnng Japenese (a language who's structure is very different from English) is in no way as useless as learning Klingon.

However, people who are obsessed with, for example, Halo don't go and learn the language of, say, the Elites.That's only because there isn't enough information on the matter, unlike Klingon and Simlish (The Sims), except that it's mostly reversed, pitch-shifted English in Halo 1. If Bungie decided to publish information on how to speak Sangheilish, I know of a number of people who would probably try to learn it.

Yeah, because that's totally the same thing!

Huge difference between entertainment and sexual arousement, bro.

Oh really? How come every fucking movie on earth has a sex scene? Why does every commercial, magazine ad, and little sidebar ad in your browser have an attractive lady in it? Because sex interests people. If sex wasn't entertaining, no one would bother to get horny.

Yeah, pretty sure that there are a LOT of movies which lack them, actually. Probably at least half, possibly more.

As for advertising? Sex sells. Nothing more, nothing less. It's nothing to do with entertainment, it's associating a product with sex to make people want it.
