Psalam Posted June 8, 2020 Posted June 8, 2020 Just now, Darkpig said: Apologies. Sarcasm is lost in text. True. I've heard that some people are trying to designate a specific font as sarcastic so that all readers would be able to tell sarcasm easily. It seems like a good idea to me.
Kendo 2 Posted June 8, 2020 Posted June 8, 2020 A designated font makes more sense than people thinking and actually understanding what they're reading.

That would mean learning something and I don't wanna! Okay now I'm curious what is this font? Is it comic sans? Edit: Oh you mean they're still developing it? Here I go talking out my ass again.

I thought that it was almost mandatory. I can kind of understand why. The thing that makes sarcasm sarcasm is that it is subtle. And to to answer your question everything could go wrong. Talking through your ass is dangerous business especially in a group of corporate chimpanzees. In hind sight giving them C-4 was a bad idea.
Kendo 2 Posted June 8, 2020 Posted June 8, 2020 Make the font look like it was written with a Crayon. That way it will fit the mentality of the people who'll be using it.

Usually armored enough to stop rounds from infantry rifles, but not enough to actually protect you from something serious. And as Murphy's Law of Combat #20 states: "Never forget your equipment was made by the lowest bidder." Bullet magnets for Marines... ?

Those two men on top have their whole upper body exposed and the driver looks like a human whack-a-mole. Should I tell the military one of their tanks are broken? Ah I'm going to be yelled at again like that Beetle Bailey comic strip. It's a lightweight scouting vehicle. Not meant to take on anything serious, just be able to fight its way out of an ambush. Yes, it's not heavily armed or armoured, but it's built for speed and maneuverability on varying terrains. It's common to drive around "turned out" as these guys are, only "buttoning up" when going into combat. They do have viewing ports, but they are decidedly difficult to see out of, and give a soda-straw-ish view of the world. Sometimes (many times) the added situational awareness of being turned out overrides the increased protection of being buttoned up. Additionally, if you hit a mine, sometimes you'll get launched out the hatch - if it's open. This beats getting cooked if the hatch is closed. Infantry in Vietnam used to ride on top of their M-113s for this very reason. Of course, in either case, you could just as easily break your neck on said hatch. Just one of innumerable ways to die. On topic: Neighbors and their 1. Bright lights that they REFUSE to turn down, either lumens wise or simply shading them so they don't shine in our windows. 2. Loud music. Just because YOU like it, doesn't mean everyone else likes it! 3. Keep your conversations at a to-yourself level, please! 4. City dwellers who move to the country to get away from the city... and then bring the city with them. (See the aforementioned light and sound pollution.)

Would COMIC SANS do? There is no splatter paint/graffiti type font on most modern browsers so it might be the closest approximation available at the moment.

Please tell me they do. Or maybe it looks more like a moon rover. One small step for man. One giant joke for Darkpig. To be honest it doesn't look very protective. Those two men on top have their whole upper body exposed and the driver looks like a human whack-a-mole. Should I tell the military one of their tanks are broken? Ah I'm going to be yelled at again like that Beetle Bailey comic strip. Could it be destroyed by thrown bricks, hard kicks or peas shot at it through straws? Then it is protective enough for its purposes. Wait, let me try the alternate font here for sarcasm: Could you whoop its ass, tough guy?!

TheOzoneHole Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 I keep advocating for back slanted italics as the sarcasm font but no-one ever listens...

Lots of bias news... facts don't matter, agenda does On top of that, a massive social push for the agenda. If it doesn't fit the agenda, then all efforts to destroy anything in it's way.

It's the reason I moved out into the country in the first damn place. I have groups behind my house a few acres away. I'd like to have a 168 grain .308 argument that would really emphasis my point with them. But I'm sure someone is going to tell me thats illegal or some other nonsense. ?
megamantaray Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 Using silly anime mods in Minecraft to fuck around and accidentally nuking my entire base I spent 3 hours on. Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo~~ Worst part is there's not even blocks to recover it just deleted 'em. :<

Ernest Lemmingway Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 Misandrynists--male and female alike--who try and claim that misandry can't exist for "reasons." You hate men for any reason? Even (especially!) if you're a man yourself? Misandry exists.
