Works fine for me. I mean, was there anything interesting in the Charlie Kirk threads? He got shot, his shooter is arrested now. What's left?

I wouldn't use KF for depression. A lot of posters there think it doesn't even exist. I saw a thread where someone was miserable and they literally told him it was because he wasn't married and didn't have children, and then later were telling him to have his testosterone levels checked...

;) At least with you its funny. I swear the Kiwis think absolutely everything is "Gay" or "Troons" or "Jews." These must be absolutely miserable people who deny themselves any sort of fun or pleasure because they live in fear of unlikely negative effects.

Honestly some triangle-holders probably deserve it, even maybe includng the guy who made that topic, but yeah I don't see much difference between triangles and non-triangles. Some of the responses show a definite lack of self-awareness from everyone involved. People bitching about "talking...

I glanced through the last ten pages and didn't see a mention of this, but it looks like even standard Kiwis are getting sick of the culture there: https://kiwifarms.st/threads/its-impossible-to-discuss-anything-on-kf-these-days.227695/ Just look at that mod note on top. BTW guy didn't have...

(Not sure if this goes here or in KF General 2.0... please let me know so I can delete and post in appropriate topic if necessary) The thing I wanna draw your attention to is the Negrates at the bottom. The extremely short version is there was a slap fight, but it ended like, two days ago...

A few were wise to him already. I recall in one of the millions of lolicon debates that infest the Deep Thoughts subforum, someone tried to prove a point by linking to a Turkey Tom video... and got immediately dunked on and told "you lost all credibility by linking to a Turkey Tom video." This...

I'll say this much: I've never even eaten a kiwi, but onions go great with everything.

Considering who Null is, can you really blame me for thinking he'd do this for real? (But yeah I fucking hate April Fools Day).

https://kiwifarms.st/threads/reaction-alert-notifications-for-kiwi-green-accounts.188187/#post-18080023 Summarized: the ability to get notified of reactions to your post (which was a standard fucking thing for years on KF and in fact was something apparently people found annoying)... is now...

So funny thing is I've never actually interacted with Null personally, everything I know about him comes from other people's accounts. When I started this topic I was just talking about general patterns I've noticed in the community. Anyway, I was reminded of a few more: -Kiwis will call it...

So, remember when I said that no matter what the topic, Kiwis will find a way to make it about trannies, lolis, or wokeness? I found a post that proves my point: https://kiwifarms.st/threads/time-travel-arguments.171948/page-2#post-16840148 This was in a topic discussing Time Travel.

Or rather, the way the world appears to be if you're terminally online. Seriously, one reason I don't relate to the Kiwi POV is because I don't get online all that often. Thus I don't even regularly see half the shit they complain about... its almost like living outside an echo chamber gives...

On Kiwi Farms, there is a board under Articles and Happenings called "Deep Thoughts." The name is a misnomer most of the time, but let's not dwell on that... they certainly don't. They instead dwell on porn. And in particular, lolicon. It seems every other week, there's a topic there about...

The OP didn't make sense to me. What the fuck is KF even contesting?

It just occured to me to wonder this. A lot of times when the site loads slowly or not at all, the usual excuse is "well its constantly being DDoS'd by trannies." But like.... is it seriously getting attacked that often? there was recently a news banner thing that said trannies were getting...

Another I remembered: --Most/all forms of entertainment are wrong/unhealthy and will lead to you becoming a criminal, a degenerate, a lolcow, or some combination of all three (especially anime). ..... And yet they've got thousand-page long topics on a lot of the exact media they claim is...

Let's list them! Ones I remember: -They will bitch about youtubers shilling their patreon (with many even consider this an unsub-worthy offense). .... and yet Null asks for donations and its praised. -They will say SJWs are stupid for thinking games make you sexist or turn you into a Nazi...

Honestly most of the lolcow topics are like that. For as much as they say they "don't get angry about lolcows" you can tell there's seething resentment. While sometimes a person seriously deserves it, most people are just socially awkward or happened to make a weird statement that farmers like...

The thing that gets me, reading those emails, is it feels like Null was really uncomfortable trying to talk to Byuu. I get the sense he kinda wanted to be sympathetic but also could not help but sound a little bit... .... I'm not sure what I'm trying to describe here, but its like, without...

I said nothing about catboy/catgirl anime. I said neko is Japanese for cat. As in, this thing: But yeah, I jumped in there because that whole debate was exasperating. Guy posts an OC, gets directly asked "what does this word mean?" allows other people to claim its some fetish bullshit...

It's literally just the Japanese word for "cat," I have no idea why it suddenly has degenerate connotations. ........................ So going to the greater topic of this post.... honestly I kinda resonate with the whole "this forum's whole purpose is to reeee about Null" thing. I originally...

Yeah, I figured. Seems like here on OnionFarms the only people anyone knows/talks about are the mods/admins of Kiwi Farms. By contrast this same topic on KF got to ten pages in just three hours.

Don't forget its PSP sequel/spinoff The 3rd Birthday, which... I've heard mixed reports about (and never got to play myself. By the time it came out I was basically avoiding anything with Square's name on it). Square is one of those companies that used to be considered gods of gaming but, much...

I got into RPGs in the SNES era. While the love kinda continued onto the PS1 (they were the main reason I jumped ship from the N64 to the Playstation), it was where the love started to dull... especially as I used to be a Squaresoft fanboy but this was when I started realizing they were kinda...

Those are some very good ones to be into. Like, I know I just talked up the SNES era Final Fantasy games but that series has always had some quirks. FF6 has likable characters and great music but some of its mechanics just feel ehh, and in the second half of the game the strat is just "get the...

Mostly agree here, except I would add Final Fantasy 1, 4, 6, and Mystic Quest (fuck the haters). Final Fantasy is a weird series in that a lot of the games I don't like now are also ones I didn't like back then either. I dunno, for me that's the constant--I rarely find a case where I go back...

It would be hilarious yet sad if some tech corp actually bought it and then Kiwi became the thing it pretends to rail against... yet another corporate web forum. At the same time it would probably be the straw that broke the camel's back and finally make people set up a Farms alternative that...

Heck... has there ever been a genuinely bad Elder Scrolls game? The only ones I've heard of are those two weird spin-offs released after Daggerfall but before Morrowind. In my experience none of the main series ones are bad--even Arena is fun and playable.

So technically this was posted weeks ago and I had actually discussed it privately with someone, but I figured I'd make it public. I first learned about this from this video: So my first reaction was.... "this sounds like a BAD idea." Granted, my second was "like most internet petitions...

Same here. Usually when I hear a game "aged badly" what that usually means is "it was never good in the first place." If its a game that was popular, then it had some sort of gimmick appeal or hype or was a right-place-at-the-right-time situation. As for games I think hold up fine.... I go...

Penn & Teller: Bullshit was a Showtime series hosted by the eponymous magician duo, in which they discussed.... whatever, but with a focus on saying something or other was a lot of nonsense. I first discovered this series because decades ago, my mom and my sister were both going through this...

Recently I've been replaying BOTW, a game that (to put simply) I always found to be a fun novelty but not exactly amazing. I've never played Tears of the Kingdom because first, its seventy dollars, and second, every review I've ever seen claims that TOTK fixed none of BOTW's flaws and indeed...

While I'm here..... one feeling I get is there's a bit of astro-turfing going on. Nowadays, I always hear Sonic 3 and Knuckles seen as this crowning achievement of Classic Sonic (unless they prefer Sonic 2). But thing is I recall seeing articles and reviews in the days of the early internet...

There's a blog I recently ran across where the blogger made a compelling argument that RPGs basically started going downhill around the PS1 era. Here's the post. Go there and tell him what you think. Recently this guy has also been posting "progress reports" playing Phantasy Star II, as well.

Was cloud seeding ever actually a "conspiracy theory?" I remember an episode of Tennessee Tuxedo (old cartoon about a penguin voiced by Don Adams) which had the heroes doing it just so their rain prediction would be right for once. I imagine if its something a kids' cartoon is comfortable...

@SSj_Ness So.... how do you like 'em?

Just imagine if you could time travel back and start your own game company and release a lot of these modern games back in the day. Though I'm not 100% sure I'd like to do that. I often fantasize about time travel but I think if I ever did I would have a rule against changing anything before...

My relation with Sonic has always been strange. I started the 16-Bit era as a Genesis kid, but oddly enough I recall having this contrarian period where I would say Sonic sucks and that other characters like Aero the Acrobat or even Bubsy were better. I think I eventually mellowed out, but for...

@Cavalier Cipolla I mean, that's all cool and all, but when dealing with a retro console ultimately what matters is "does it have the games I want to play?" Not long ago I owned a Neo-Geo... but sold it because I wasn't interested in most of its library. But I still have my Turbo, because I do...

Just a random question that popped into my head. Like, on the internet these days Sonic discussion seems to always be more about autistic fans (and in these parts, one autistic fan in particular) than about the actual material. So..... how do I phrase this.... Okay, peek behind the curtain...

The "successor" that only had five or so games and was quickly discontinued, while the console it was "succeeding" continued to get made? .... or, well, little card things actually. Not cartridges. The funny thing is that the US marketing tried to call them "Turbochips" but even on US games...

DID he? I'm not up on the lore.

And let me guess... PETA and other various animal rights/anti-cruelty organizations have never had anything to say about this?

Probably not gonna be a very intelligent take as I don't have an in-depth POV on this... .... But I hate hentai, and honestly most porn. And not for any namby-pamby moral reason. Mostly just because its either A) too stupid or B) too gross. Like, if hentai were just people drawing images if...

I... find that really does not hold up. Probably because I'm an oldfag who remembers the days of shopping for anime at Suncoast (mid-to-late 1990s), but the boom from "niche" to "mainstream" actually began with Pokemon. The switch from it being called "Japanimation" to being called "Anime"...

Why single out Titan specifically?

Yeah, I've heard that Japanese society is basically really similar to how Tolkien described Hobbits: They like things safe, familiar, expected, and its a rare hobbit who genuinely wants adventures. With a lot of anime I also suspect its just business--with millions of authors each year...

Honestly I agree and I really only watch modern when with friends who are into it. My big problem is two things: One, anime is incestuous in that so much feels like just the same story over and over. Not in terms of vague similarities, but literally entire characters and arcs being repeated...

Guys, the proper comebacks are: "How appropriate, you fight like a cow." "You run THAT fast?" "First stop swinging it like a feather-duster." and finally, "Why? Do you want one?"

So basically, despite the whole "free speech" thing, the reality is that every post is being reported, all the time, for anything from genuine offenses to mispelling a word in a way that triggers someone?

This I agree with. Something like this anime, the nudity near the beginning is clearly fanservice, but since the actual story is solid and has substance, you can forgive it. But way too many I find the authors can't stop being horny little bastards and fit it in where it makes no sense or just...

Both here and KF have a lot of people who like to meme "weeb stuff is cringe" or "all anime is bad" but... What do you reeeeaaaally think? If you genuinely dislike anime/manga, why? And is there any specific work you would consider drawing an exception for (and for the sake of discussion...

Huh. Honestly when I was having this thought my thinking was "it would be DOA, nobody would ever use a platform where someone can just decide to stalk them for any reason, or no reason at all." But I forgot about the real-world examples.

Shower thought, because my mind wandered onto problems internet forums have (especially since Onions like to think about one forum in particular a lot). Narcissistic owners, mods who are shit at doing their jobs, users who act retarded because of online anonymity, etc... So, I was thinking...

Youtubers basically don't know literature, period. I forgoet if I mentioned this guy already but there's this one Youtuber named Dominic Noble who reviews books and their movie adaptations.... and pretty much, every time he opens his mouth he shows he didn't understand a damn thing. He also...

One thing that probably makes the "so-and-so is gay" thing more palatable in hindsight is the reason for it was obvious--girls wrote fanfiction where they wanted to see two men bang. Any moralfagging they did was a transparent cover for getting their jollies off. I would also argue that "gay"...

Huh. I've never seen Matpat do that and in fact remember him saying he dislikes "dream" theories. With Matpat, a common trend is "the villains were actually right." He's even made self-aware references to this being a common trend in his videos. I recall seeing something similar for the...

I can give you an example: Matpat, and in particular Film Theory. The TV Trope "Inferred Holocaust" (which I think used to be called Implied Endor Holocaust) was all about this kind of shit. Totally. I can name many anime that are way superior ;)

This is probably the most sensible take. Separating anime from "cartoons" makes sense sometimes though. Like sometimes on youtube I'll see videos like "the top ten cartoons of the 1980s," and when I see that, I'm thinking I'm in for a rush of childhood nostalgia (I'm from 1983).... and then...

the funny thing is I've seen Kiwis take the opposite stance as well: that anime is a cancer and needs to be purged. My own stance is that if its a still-airing anime and it isn't called "Detective Conan," its probably crap.

This is outside the realm of "Literature" but this paragraph here reminded me of a Pushing Up Roses video: I normally enjoy Pushing Up Roses, but this video just struck me as all sorts of weird. Her major claim is that Police Quest is full of tonal whiplash, but the examples she cites...

So, what are some bad and objectively wrong things you've heard said about literature? I actually wanted to bring this up in the KF General topic because the first one I thought of was someone on Kiwi Farms summed up Don Quixote as "Idealism is Bad." Which.... Don Quixote is not that simple...

I've legit never heard the word "Scathach." In ANY context. "Transition" is funny because I see it (and use it) in contexts other than trans people, only to remember "oh right, that means something else now."

Basically, thanks to the internet, what's a word you have trouble taking seriously? Maybe this topic will be therapy for some. Or just good for a laugh. ..... I'll start with the obvious one, "Pride." These days you never hear about any type of pride other than the rainbow-colored kind. (On...

Why does what you said remind me of this? (The part at about a minute in) Anyway, in my experience most people tend to not see mercy killing as an all-or-nothing proposition. Just last week my neighbors had to put down a dog that was in pain after getting hit by a car... doesn't mean...

Judge! He has three Ace of Spades! Yeah I've never really had much to do with the whole "defining what constitutes life" aspect of the abortion debate. I mean, I get it. Life is sacred, people are against killing and murder, etc. And they want to reconcile that with being fine with...

.... You just showed your hand, dude. Cuz there's two possibilities: 1 ) you were seriously confused as to what I was calling "unhinged." 2 ) you knew damn well what the problem element was and chose to misrepresent so as to not have to answer for it. And I'm strongly suspecting its that...

I don't know who this lolcow is, but she annoys me. It just so happens I follow a youtuber named Mangaminx, who plays horror games, and is also sometimes just called "Minx." So when I first started hearing that "Minx" was a lolcow I thought people meant the one I know at first... until threads...

Dude, a whole page of you taking an unhinged stance on child rape and THIS is the only thing you have to say? You have some serious misplaced priorities.

There was one: Usenet. Usenet had literally no moderators. Instead, you had to hope your usenet reader had something called a "killfile" (essentially a block button) and not all of them did--mine certainly did not. I actually remember the tides changing. There used to be this guy on a...

I have not yet been banned from KF but I have the feeling its coming. After something like six years of smooth sailing, I got two threadbans, both for the trumped-up charge of "derailing the topic." The first time, someone used a term I had never seen before, I asked what it meant, and rather...

That IS something I noticed last time I looked. Specifically I was reading their articles on ShoeOnHead and Armoured Skeptic, and both articles clearly were written before the two broke up and before Armoured Skeptic tried hard to pivot into a paranormal media channel (and wound up getting--and...

Wait, what happened to Encyclopedia Dramatica? I thought it was still around?

Sorry I didn't see if there was already a topic. Its been weird, I first heard about Bitcoin when it was still niche and it sounded like a scam, but now you can find kiosks for it at brick and mortar stores. And I'm just thinking this can't last. The whole idea is its fake digital money, but...

even a raw stake is useful when there's vampires about.

I prefer my stakes medium-rare, honestly.

I mean I understood it was a DBZ reference, but.... Also, if witch burnings were good, which witch burnings were good? Which witch which was burned genuinely deserved it?
