Something Awful and Friends - The roller-coaster train-wreck embarrassing downfall of a Web 1.0 giant and its tick offspring like from Cloverfield

There's massive amounts of research that say the contrary. While opinions like this are annoying it isn't for the reasons you believe. It's more like it's akin to arguing with a creationist than anything else. Gender research isn't all women's studies or feminism but actual STEM people attempting to study the neurological mysteries of being human and it's overwhelmingly agreed upon that gender is a more complex thing than "vagina or dick equals man or woman".

It isn't that you're "triggering" me, it's just that I know this ties into reactionary entitlement and you sound like a dullard.

Gonna go out on a limb and ask: did you even fucking read those?

 

[Boodles]

Yeah they explain how biological sex is an expressive spectrum

 

[zap2theextreme]

Nice ad hominem attack bro, that's how you certainly convince somebody of your point of view. But you are probably above that, aren't you? Probably above me, too.

These links don't really explain why a guy in his late 20s, 30s or 40s with apparent mental problems and certain sexual fetishes visits one of the transtrender online lairs where, after he gets told that transitioning will solve all his problems and he just has to find the *right* doctor (read: one who'll agree to everything he wants) suddenly puts on a blue wig, a cocktail dress two numbers to small and then plays into every female sterotype there is. Mental illness on the other side.. kinda does. Sorry!

After years of hormone therapy and disfiguring surgey then, he then kills himself. Putting on that wig and mascara didn't seem to help much, after all.

 

[Lysol]

Yeah they explain how biological sex is an expressive spectrum

The first one is talking about microchimerism in relation to pregnancy in women, ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microchimerism ) which while interesting has nothing to do with their sex.

The second one is talking about how complications can arise later in the life of a mammal if there's a chemical fuckup during fetal sex determination. (from what I can gather, anyway, I'm a bit drunk)

The third is about which specific chemicals determine sex during early fetal development and how they interact with one another.

None of this shit says anything about a "spectrum" or how "expressive" it is. If I, a self-admitted dumbfuck can parse that out of that scient-ese, I'm guessing you didn't actually fucking read them.

More from the "surprise sex" thread. The "RAPING" thing is a shitty little gif that says "Start raping people", I don't know the story behind it but whoever is responsible for a wave of "rape is rape" avatars is a hero.

Should clarify - not whoever bought the avatars, hyperemotional goons with credit cards are basically animals, but whoever's posting in D&D was terrible enough to set them loose, maybe someone supported Kavanaugh or something.

Spoiler: "YIKES"

I feel like we're getting off-topic. The main topic being GOONS!

Aaaah you beat me to it. Well, here's my highlights:

This is in the thread where people are asking the word "rape" to stop being replaced with "surprise sex" if you view posts without being signed in...except the paywall is still up and has been up for what feels like centuries, so I don't have any idea how people discovered that only recently.

But oops, the forum is held together by chewing gum and paperclips, so not even an admin can remove the word filter--just like the ads.

(the gif highlighted in the posts below flashes the text, "START RAPING PEOPLE")

Once again, you can always tell when a goon is mad when...

Oh, for christ's sake--

STOP!

NOOO!

I remember Blast of Confetti from the thread complaining about ads. I don't remember much about him, to be fair, but I don't feel a sense of disgust or annoyance when I see his avatar.

Especially when he invokes responses like this.

But at least there's some goons with a sense of humor. See, I told you they were real.

To finish, FAU laments:

 

[whatever I feel like]

FAU a fleckless coward. Again.

 

[Cryogonal]

I love how it keeps coming back to "only Lowtax can do that, it turns out!" If you're reading this, Rich, make an option where you pay $50 to make forum-specific filters. I'd drop a Grant to change "Kavanaugh" to "Cosmonaut" in good ole' DnD. Or maybe "K*v*n*ugh"

 

[AmpleApricots]

You know, after reading all these screenshots I realize I had no idea how much worse SA had become since I left it. I can kinda see why Lowtax doesn't want to be around, even if I don't like the guy.

Lowtax abandoned it long before it became this bad, and his abandonment is part of the reason it became this bad.

I do like the posts where they claim kiwis are all jobless tendie neets living in basements.

In a comparison of autistic shitposters vs. permatriggered ‘I LITERALLY CAN’T EVENS’ I’m picking the shitposters as more likely to be employed and regularly leaving their homes every time.

That goon literally thinks we drove John Neumann to suicide. Do you think he has the comprehension skills to read molecular biology papers?

 

[northstar747]

FAU admitting that because they cantdo anything they wont talk about it

why not make it a bannable offense to complain about things they cant change.

 

[Anime is Blood]

If you want an authentic picture of what Something Awful is like now, take the obviously-a-tranny-goon arguing with us from a purely emotional standpoint that can't stand up to the slightest bit of scrutiny. Except over there almost everyone is like that and anyone asking questions is banned.

There aren't a lot of questions being asked anymore. It makes perfect sense that the best answer SA has to a call out these days is a single goon, lost without it's echo chamber, passing off unrelated science as a justification for it's life decisions so it doesn't have to feel embarrassed and insecure.

 

[Ebonic Tutor]

Possibility that ZDR or FAU could take the ad down but are under orders from Lowtax to leave it?

 

[HG 400]

Hi goons, just letting you know that we're totally okay with you guys coming over here to spout whatever opinions you have like @Boodles did (maybe take it to a more appropriate forum tho instead of derailing our lovely goon thread) and the reason he got banned seems to be because he was primarily using his account to spastically harass and accuse another forum member of being a literal child rapist in disturbing and graphic detail. We try to keep our space safe from that kind of thing.

I want to make it clear that we are an open and inclusive forum and all of you are still welcome to visit regardless of your political beliefs, sexual orientation or gender identity but there is clearly a pretty striking cultural difference between our two forums when it comes to things like tolerating harassment and abuse. We don't tolerate it. Please do not use our forum as a platform to harass and criminally defame people you dislike, especially with baseless accusations of pedophilia, as it is not just against our terms of service but it is quite literally illegal. Thank you.

There is a huge irony in this since SA was the proto 4chan and Kiwifarms. SA used just to be like early 4chan and this site.
