Keep Grinding

Micro Rants

AI Derangement Syndrome

I don't worry over AI-generated media because humans are still needed to check them. The writings look stereotypically autistic, while the images are hilarious and creepy simultaneously. Worse artists, writers, and actors' whining means a sitcom is just waiting to happen. Roughly 60 years of CGI and over 20 years of voice synthesis passed, yet now they're problems, apparently. Sometimes, I wonder if these idiots were common in the '80s. "Have you seen these program-generated images?! Texas Instruments will prevent me from helping pedos!"

April Fools Jokes

"TWiLight Menu++" was so unstable when I originally tried it, probably because the devs wasted time making a nonsensical startup screen instead of improving their program. You can insert a joke for April 1st, but the core project should take top priority.

Bit.Trip Flux Sucks

Flux is the lowest point of the Bit.Trip series. The cutscenes look poor, and the gameplay ranges from boring to infuriating. Despite the Commander being presumed dead, the background's words form "There is no death." Additionally, he still appears in Bit.Trip Complete's menus and further games. CommanderVideo never died. Also, Indie Pogo and Fraymakers are crap and their creators should feel like diarrhea.

Brain Age: Concentration Training Made My Brain Hurt

I liked the Brain Age Express trilogy, so I thought I would enjoy Concentration Training. I was wrong. Devilish Training was more headache-inducing than stimulating, Block Head felt like trial and error, and the unlock conditions were tedious. Even the series's first game was preferable.

Friday Night Funkin' Is Redundant

FNF is likely the worst knockoff of DanceDanceRevolution. None of the characters are likable, and the input detection is shitty. Even with the KadeEngine mod, there are still references to Sr Pelo and ZTV's horrible cartoons. Besides, Stepmania is already a good clone. If it isn't broken, don't try to fix it.

General's Warnings

Because cigarette boxes have big warnings, predator-produced media's download pages should have links to legal papers and incriminating posts.

Overuse of JavaScript

Web designers need to stop using JavaScript just to display core text and images. HTML already does that well and faster, so save scripts for forms.

Punishments for Handicapped Criminals

If one can't differentiate between right and wrong nor improve itself, it belongs in a white room or on death row. When it misbehaves there, just toss it in the wilderness and let it figure its own shit out. If you disagree with the previous sentences, learn about Chris Chandler, Newgrounds's refugees (e.g. Edmund "Bluebaby" McMillen, Chris "OneyNG" O'Neill, Zach "psychoticpebbles" Hadel, etc.) and Vincent Li.

Self-Imposed Challenges Are Stupid

If a game is so easy for you that you have to improvise difficulty, you should just play a harder game. Don't humiliate yourself.

Sensory Abuse

Raising stupid shit's volume, exposure, or saturation does not automatically make it funny. Please learn to write well.

Slurs

Slurs are lazy ad hominem attacks. Just laugh at them.

Social Networks Have Too Many Criminals

So many idiots defend predators, regardless of how harmful they are. Have you paid close attention to YouTube's lowlives during the 2010s? Deranged shitheads like Vinesauce's Vinny, Puyo Nexus's Phong "S2PID" Tran, and Frederator's Pan Pizza wanted to be arrested because they wanted to be hated. Their dirt is public, so fucking prosecute them with it!

Sonic the Hedgehog 4's Wasted Potential

If Sonic Adventure had a proper prequel, the latter could answer many questions that the former raises. How did Sonic learn the homing attack? How did Tails obtain a Chaos Emerald for the Tornado? If Knuckles is the last of his kind, how did he learn to speak and fight? How did Big meet Froggy/Kaeru-kun? What motivated Eggman to build the Egg Carriers? There was so much potential that was wasted by limiting Sonic 4's major characters to Sonic, Tails, and Eggman.

Transwashing Is Trashy

If you want cisgender people to respect transgenderism, don't pretend cis characters are trans. It just makes you look as stupid as the bigots you hate, especially when the series has characters with the same gender you're projecting onto ones who are okay with themselves. Also, Lady Lunanova and RosieRoberta are handicapped perverts and I would not have sex with them.

Weight Woe

If you feel bad about being round or scrawny, adjust your diet. Fats and sugar are definitely empowering, but you need to find a middle ground with them. Vegetables and fruit usually have too little calories. Mix up nutritious foods with fatty ones.

Miscellaneous Annoyances

Here's a dump of what has been persistently bothering me. Some of these might be placed on other pages later.

  1. If you don't want people to mock something you did, don't publicize it.
  2. I will take your so-called disorder more seriously if you properly deal with your bullshit.
  3. On a similar note, therapists likely cannot treat your mental disability because you do not see them often nor let them diagnose you.
  4. You need to budget if you want to have money for your self-care and projects. You will only obtain as much as you are willing to pay for.
  5. If you think you don't earn enough money from your hobbies, then start a Certificate of Deposit, apply for welfare, invest in medicine stocks, or (gasp) get a job.
  6. Experience is only worth shit when your work is shit.
  7. Damn your double standards. If Chris Chan, Shadling, and Jeff Epstein are creeps, then so are Ian Jones-Quartey, Zach Hadel, and Bob Magrann.
  8. If something seems too good or bad to be true, it's likely false.
  9. You shouldn't treat a young person like excrement, though you also shouldn't spoil it rotten. Consider learning about the shitstorms that Justin Bieber and Jack Doherty caused.
  10. Some people like their sex rough, though remember there is a difference between kinky and discomforting. There are plenty of people out there; if one doesn't want to bang you, just find another.
  11. Age-of-consent legislation exists so teens can experiment with each other. After you become an adult, you need to stick with adults.
  12. Don't try to use mental gymnastics with your opponents. (e.g. "They are fictional anyways" or "Is him lusting after a 12-year-old while he's mentally 7 being a predator?")
  13. Before you accuse a critic of "projecting", try to deduce whether the criticism is valid or not. Also, don't call someone a retard when you act like a retard.
  14. Please practice what you preach. So many game devs and video creators look dishonest because they do not do this.
  15. Indieslop fans are the new Amiga elitists.
  16. Did creators learn anything from the console wars? The most accessible products always win.
  17. Despite my love for Banjo-Tooie and Conker's Bad Fur Day, I am not a "teaboo." Mass surveillance hurts more than it helps, I wear purple proudly, and I sincerely hope Caddicarus, David Firth, and Harry Partridge die in prison.
  18. Gamer drinks are the new Gerber Singles.
  19. Normal society runs on karma. If bad things keep happening to you, that is likely because it is punishing you for continuous disrespect.
  20. Flights are like cigarettes: they harm the user and contaminate the area, yet a lot of dumbos buy them anyway.
  21. At least JewWario and Lowtax had the courtesy to kill themselves. psychoticplebbles and its pals don't.
  22. If you believe a family-oriented cartoon or its scandal ruined your childhood, it was like pissing in polluted water. Your youth was already tainted.
  23. You can doesn't mean you should.
