Slight aside but my uni had a Japanese culture club that explicitly told us that our presentations would almost never include manga/anime. We already had a club for weeb shit on campus, and they added that it was always embarrassing that when Japanese exchange students came to see what parts of their home's culture Americans were into, it was always anime and manga and video games.
We aren’t so lucky at the place I’m at. I went to a big event for the Japanese culture club out of curiosity and literally right next to the entrance there’s the anime club fags showing off their manga collection, just in case someone wants to sit down and read that shit in public for some reason. Screwing around at the calligraphy table was fun at least.
Exactly, plus I don't think there is enough people for it to even matter. Like, there is a lot of people on the internet who are like "I'm going to boycott Hobby Lobby because I don't like their views against gays and troons" but it obviously isn't enough to matter since they are doing very well compared to Joann's and Michael's
like with Disney now. a few boomers saying they'll never buy a Disney DVD anymore won't hurt them. it's a drop in the ocean.
Especially since Disney has plenty of womanchildren who will spend hundreds and thousands of dollars on Disney stuff anyways.
How about all the people who said they're never eating Chik-Fil-A again? Everytime I pass by the one Chik-Fil-A in the area there's always a drive-thru line wrapping around the building. I'm surprised they haven't added more locations around here. Yeah, I don't think the "strike" is going to last long at all.
Oh same here, the lines even go into the street sometimes. Nothing will get past people and their chicken sandwiches.
The alternatives are:
I'm pretty sure having sex for any reason other than procreation is a sin according to Christianity.
Depends on the denomination, Catholics and fundies definitely, not sure what denomination the CEO for Hobby Lobby is, I am pretty sure he is a very conservative evangelical of some sort. I know Hobby Lobby doesn't sell Halloween merchandise because the CEO believes Halloween is too pagan.
Polycystic ovarian syndrome is a legitimate medical issue and is only properly treated with birth control. A lot of women have problems with their period in general, that are alleviated with birth control. You don't have to be sexually active to need birth control. That's why a lot of people have a problem. Especially since erectile dysfunction always gets a pass because "that's different", even though it is strictly a sexual issue. But I digress.
Man they've been doing this for decades. The Little Mermaid controversies (penis tower VHS cover, "erection" priest), the Lion King controversies (SEX in the wind, "squashed bananas up your ass" book), companies owned by Disney that distribute R rated movies, and so on.
I had a Japanese film prof warn us against writing our final paper on an anime. He was polite about it, but you could tell he was just tired of the crappy weeb shit he was getting when what he really wanted us to get into was what made the golden era of Japanese film so special. I got put in a group for a project in my modern Japanese lit class with a gigantically obese Snapple-guzzling philipino nerd who read nothing but Fruits Basket during lecture. He never met us at the library to work on anything, never called, never answered any emails. On presentation day he showed up wearing a hachimaki bandana and a cape (well, blanket). He got up there with the rest of us and before we could say a word he said a bunch of things in a samurai accent - I think he thought he was being Mishima? I dunno. Anyway, when he was done we just went on with our presentation as planned and then chatted with the professor privately after.
I imagine the professor was relieved, but also a tiny bit disappointed, that your weeb didn't fully commit to his Mishima impression.
Was this an American school? One of my jap relatives is a professor and gave up with teaching American colleges. Weebs got to her and made her cry. She teaches math, so having a fat fake dyke asking her “what her favorite yuri series is” is uncalled for. also men thinking Japanese women are sex robots and will suck you off at the drop of a hat, that shit got to her too. No, Japanese (and Chinese) don’t think white men are gods. Please, don’t ask them to be your “kawaii neko hentai hime”.
You don't have to print many of those to justify your own printer at those prices. They're just printed with silk PLA, which isn't much more than regular PLA and isn't that much harder to print with (sometimes it's easier) as long as you stick with known name Chinese crap. Even going with a quality producer isn't that bad because you're never printing many things with it.
I love the thought of this being true!
You betcha this was America. For awhile I had a coworker who had worked in Japan and she said that the Japanese had gotten so many weebs for her position in the past that they made a special contract, which she had to read and sign, prior to starting work. One of the things I remember was not to read manga at your desk and another was to shower daily. The Japanese must feel like they just ordered something off of Wish half of the time they hire an American. Thought you were getting Shuwa-chan? Nope, Chris-chan more like!
God i feel you, I'm interested in Japanese art (especially its traditional crafts) and culture, but I've seen maybe two animes my whole life.
That's amusing but also horrifying at the same time. It's a pity weebs only seem to be interested in animu and mangos because Japan's film industry is fascinating as hell. Actually watching Japanese people react when you do/say something beyond weebshit autism is also interesting
Most of them seem to be more liberal places - especially the dildo companies (which my recommended section is now full of thanks to finding that image of the penis dinosaur with the Rock's face on it
). They're the sort who'll protest about literally anything until they get bored or offended about something else.
