    Infodump about your Special Interests!

    We'd be here all day, but... My special interest is animation whether it be cartoons or comics. I love fiction. I value character, personality, color, and action. My two greatest special interests at the moment are "Sonic the Hedgehog" and "Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt." The latter is...

    Do certain speech patterns (and words) annoy you?

    "Quality" and "reputation" are two more words that I've learned to happily remove from my dictionary when it comes to my interests.

    Do certain speech patterns (and words) annoy you?

    "Toxic" and "overrated" when used to measure something of subjective value will quickly earn the user an eyeroll from me.

    I am a Sonic fan. I support the fandom, I support Sega, Sonic Team, and Yuji Naka.

    That's another thing. On one hand, that is why I work to improve on them. I don't point them out for the sake of pointing them out unlike every other critic. On the other hand, if you keep pointing out flaws in everything then you may as well be doing it for life. However, when it comes to flaws...

    I am a Sonic fan. I support the fandom, I support Sega, Sonic Team, and Yuji Naka.

    Alright, I've already had to add several people to my ignore list because they chose to misinterpret me and cross over my boundaries, especially when what I had to say was in the fine print. I while ago I opened up about an incident from fifteen years ago in high school that scarred me. I told...

    Dunning-Kruger Effect / Cognitive Biases

    Debate as a tool for misinformation and propaganda A lot of people respond for the sake of responding, rarely to understand.

    Dunning-Kruger Effect / Cognitive Biases

    "Everyone is entitled to their opinion" is the ULTIMATE thought-terminating cliché. I had to take a brief respite from this forum because some people rather vehemently disagreed with my reasoning for having a special interest.

    The entire YouTube ranting community in a nutshell.

    Do others with autism have a low libido?

    I am aro-ace, and I get it on with myself more than anybody else ever will in their lifetime. XD Sorry if that was too much information.

    Moved by music that sounds like gibberish?

    Hello. Has anyone ever been moved by music that lyrically sounds like total gibberish? That is not meant to be an insult in the slightest. For me, when I like to stim by imagining a head-banging song, the lyrics are of its own unique language. I suppose it has more to do with tone and melody...

    What's on your mind right now?

    It's real sad that people still believe in popular prejudices invented in, like, 2006.

    The Brick in the Conversation

    Exactly. Here's another weird thing, though. I was once part of a group that enjoyed debating about certain differences relating to a creative interest. I almost felt right at home with them until everyone that wasn't a part of that started to label this group "toxic." They started calling...

    What video game are you currently playing?

    I'm planning to start playing all the Sonic games I was forced to skip out on due to internet bullying, from Heroes up to Unleashed and or Black Night. This is an entire generation we're talking about here, so I honestly feel that this is going to be a very soul-freeing experience. Shoot, I'll...

    I don't want to hurt NPC feelings.

    Ooh! Lemme tell ya something! I was playing this game called Red Steel on the Nintendo Wii a long time ago. It's basically like Kill Bill. The game has an "honor" system where you could basically get EXP depending on how you ended a swordfight with an enemy. Sometimes you got more honor by...
