Bigred here
Been awhile since I've posted here. What y'all up to?

I like bigred!
OH LAWD HOW I MISS YOU!
Boog. You still in Korea? Have they captured you as a spy yet?
Give you $5 not to post for the next five minutes :). Lets be honest, you overreacted. That guy was never going to punch me in the face for table chatter. If anyone was going to punch me in the face, it was the cute dealer who I sloppily flirted with or the waitress I ordered tequila shots from (for the whole table!) and then started wandering around and wasn't there for when she delivered them.
Also, more posts about what people are up to, like boog being in a North Korean prison camp.
Sup, guize?
How long of a post streak can we get of pre'08 join dates?

And depending on which Good Book you subscribe to - this is great and/or terrible!
Hi Bred
gawd I'm FTRold
woah.. Pelion may have the oldest avatar.. I can't remember, but you've had that one for quite a long time, no?
Bigred - Imgur is pretty much the worst thing to exist, ever
I used to visit every single day... but more and more often there'd be dumb shit, like stories made into pictures about people's lives and shit that may or may not have happened to them, seeking validation from the imgur community... weight loss stories (fuck that shit)... sob stories "lost my job due to evil corporation"... shit politics being pushed on you... gay agenda this, bleeding heart liberal that, and if you voice so much as a modicum of constructive criticism you're downvoted to oblivion.
I would go there for the funny pictures, but the site has the groupthink mentality of an 11 year-old girl.
Fuck, I remember there's this one pic where a girl is holding up a cardboard sign saying "I was raped by my friend - I woke up the next morning and he said 'well you were all over me and I just kinda went with it' - He was found NOT GUILTY" and the comments - with only three lines of text to base their decision on - are all lambasting the bastard who raped her. Yes, raped, even though he was, by the supposed victim's own words, found not guilty in a court of law. Fuck. That. Shit.
On top of all that, the site is just a major fucking waste of time. When will you ever truly learn something from it? When will anything you see on there come up in actual conversation with reasonable people who don't live in their mother's basements? What positive value does it generate for you?
Oh and before anyone gets worked up by my "gay agenda" statement - let me clarify. The site does push a gay agenda on you. Not just a fair gay agenda where gays shouldn't be discriminated against, treated fairly etc etc. But one where anything homosexual is praised no matter what.
For instance, one poster, a highschool student, put up a picture of himself running a marathon. He was wearing pink fairy wings. The caption read something like "after years of torment, I am finally brave enough to do this. All of my feels". Are you fucking kidding me. How does wearing fucking pink fairy wings represent anything other than acting like an idiot? Why does this individual have to make his sexuality the business of others? That's the kind of shit I'm talking about here.
Making your sexuality the business of others let's others know that there's nothing wrong with various sexualities. The more a person interacts with LGBT people, the less likely they are to assault them, discriminate against them, legislate against them, etc. Not only that, but it let's all manner of non-traditional people know that it's ok to be different.
But yeah, imgur, aside from a place to quickly host photos for free, is aids. Complete and utter time sink.

sweet titty fucking jesus it mbn to be white and straight.
I support this Penneywize
Few things anger me as much as the 14yo circlejerking Einsteins
Bigred starts a thread. It devolves into an outcry against the internet gay agenda.
Sounds about right.
@ Bikes & @ Boost I get it, mine isn't exactly the least controversial opinion. I just prefer these things be left low key i.e. while I'm all for gay rights, right to marry and what have you, I am against things like the gay pride parade, which I find rather obscene.
anyway, can't we agree there's at least room for reasonable people to disagree here? and not OMFG FUCK YOU, YOU BIGOT like I would get if I even expressed a marginally divergent point of view on imgur or reddit?
Nope, you can't. Reddit is full of reactionary drones, and the only way to get around that is finding the right subreddits. The drones tend to not read anything but instead down or up their preconceived notions. The crowd is also very young, which makes them terribly naive and opinionated, and lots of smart phones that encourage superficial contributions
Sup bro 2005 here, 8 years going strong
Penneywize isn't gay?
I'm balancing my trolling range lately. I think game theory optimal trolling is when people can't decide if you're serious or not.
TRAYVON
I just don't think there is much nuance here. I'm not calling you a bigot, I'm calling you short sighted. It's quite possible you'd hold the opinion you do, but it's also likely you wouldn't, had people not been "out and proud."
I wouldn't mind if fat ugly people didn't make out in public, but you won't see me making a fuss about it. Why would you think your comfort should trump their desire to express themselves? Hell, I clearly don't agree with the KKK's agenda, but I support their right to hold public rallies so long as they are peaceful.
Do you also find Carnival celebrations offensive? They feature half naked people dancing to music and covered in glitter just the same.
Well said boost. Seriously, who hates on parades? Uptight buzzkills, that's who.
Fucking Old People
Hi Red!
I also have no idea what my join date is, but I think it's pretty old...
itt jackvance and penneywise show what wet blankets they are
Not sure what that means but it sounds like you got some sand in your vagina. For the most part I'm indifferent to this issue. I agree with the equality bit, let them be happy and gay if they are so, and I am annoyed by circlejerk "throw equality in yo face" and I deal with this whole thing by not paying attention to any of it because it doesn't apply to me or anyone I know and I have enough on my mind as is.
wb bigred! hi to rest of you
Pre '08 privilege is being allowed to post ITT
I think this thread was in fact not the Redmiester, but a deep level troll by Spoon.
ya i think gay parade is a good laugh, i'm not really put off by it. don't really understand the fuss.
i also believe that when everybody doesn't understand the fuss any more, people will feel less of a need to hold a parade.
I wonder if they'll be a fat pride parade one day. I will switch that shit off if it appears on my tv.
well, it would at least mean they're getting some exercise.
So are women!
why the hell would anyone visit imgur instead of reddit?

i didn't really realize that imgur was used for more than free image hosting.
Didn't bigred go back to school?
Are you a nurse now?
After thinking about it a little I'm not sure what you have against my viewpoint. If we were to argue whether outward expressions of homosexuality and things like gay pride parades have had their place in changing mainstream opinion over the years I doubt I would raise any points to the contrary. I probably should not have said that I was "against" gay pride parades as that can easily be misconstrued as saying I don't think they should ever have existed though. But I do think they are obscene - and I can have that viewpoint, can't I? Is it not just personal preference?
As for carnival, it seems to me scantily clad women / festive atmosphere etc would sound like a good time. I happen to like women. So I'd definitely check that shit out if I were in Brazil that time of year. Is it obscene though? Maybe. That is, to say, I probably wouldn't bring my children to it.
If your argument boils down to me being shortsighted unless I equally value something like carnival and something like a gay pride parade then I can't say I agree with that at all.
btw Bikes, gettin real tired of your shit man. It strikes me as odd that you seemingly take potshots at me for no apparent reason from time to time without bringing anything to the discussion. I'm sure you're a nice guy irl and shit, but, shocker, if you knew me personally you'd probably think the same of me.
