Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

Really gotta play Endless Ocean on the Wii sometime...

The same guy who beat mario odyssey blindfolded also beat it without looking or hearing the game, just by following chat messages from the viewers.

That was entertaining.

@Bunnymentendo Congrats! Did you transfer your stuff?

@Delibheel I'm jealous right now.

Good to hear. Less time transferring means more time gaming!

I asked this in the Let’s Go thread, but has anyone had a recent issue getting Switch to see the Go app for transfers?

Says the adult man who's still living with his mom and who exclusively plays kiddy games instead of age-appropriate ones...

jk

On a more serious note: you shouldn't be so upset or offended all the time, by stuff you don't like. Just don't watch it, don't buy it and don't comment on it. Nobody likes a whiner, and it also isn't doing anything positive for your own feelings, so you shouldn't even bother.

And sometimes, immature humor can actually be really funny and energizing. Like in moments when you just want to have some cheap, silly laughs after a long, hard day at work.

@NEStalgia Of his pineapple sauce or jealous of a temporarily deaf/blind gamer?

Not to mention that there’s a bunch of worse stuff on YouTube Kids. As an example, Hitler finger vs. Superman finger exists.

@GyroZeppeli Hitler finger? Wait, WHAT???

@TheAwesomeBowser Well, don't know if you're looking for 2D or 3D animation programs,
but here you go...

EDIT:
I'd go for Freelancer, which should be found at the bottom of the page that I linked to. It supports both 2D and 3D animation.

@ThanosReXXX Just look up finger family Hitler. From what my friends have told me and from what I have seen, it’s sort of like the Spider-Man and Elsa controversy, so be warned.

@GyroZeppeli DISCLAIMER:
I'm 48, and not quite into the whole social media/YouTube thing anymore, so the "Spider-Man and Elsa controversy" is a complete mystery to me, so that's not really clearing anything up about "Hitler finger"...

Having said that, I'm not THAT curious, so I'll just take your word for it.

Salad Fingers is awesome.

Elsagate, as it was infamously named by the internet, refers to an era in YouTube when many many channels produced weirdly inappropriate videos that YouTube categorized as safe for kids. These would often end up being watched by kids when parents left them on auto-play mode in YouTube kids.

They would usually star popular kids characters, like Elsa, spider man, my little pony characters, etc, and feature them in weird, bizarre, and often inappropriate situations; for example: pregnacy, tickling, peeing, pooping, injections, kidnapping, violence, “pranks”, etc. It was all pretend of course, but still.

The most infamous would also feature actual kids participating in these acts.

It was a very big issue some years ago, and while it’s a bit toned down, these channels still exist and pump weird factory produced “kids” content every day.

@Delibheel Hm, doesn't really sound like something I'd watch anyway. The last REALLY offensive thing that I used to be a dedicated follower from, is Happy Tree Friends, and the most recent weird "for kids, but not actually for kids after all" video that I've seen, is an "anatomical" 3D animation video about how a unicorn "produces" rainbows and multi-colored "soft ice cream" out of a certain part of his body, complete with a horizontal cut-through of his innards...

It’s not something anyone should be watching. It wasn’t a fun, creative, subversive thing like happy tree friends, it was literally foreign companies mass producing content designed to cheat the system and generate mountains ad revenue by fooling little kids into watching them.

Some would even say some of them followed a more nefarious agenda, by intending to achieve the normalization of things like violence and inappropriate behavior by having kids watch them being performed by characters they know and trust.

After all, there’s only so any times Little Timmy can watch spider man tricking Elsa into drinking his pee before he tries to “prank” someone.

@ThanosReXXX Happy Tree Friends really isn’t that offensive or scarring. Either that or my six year old self just wasn’t fazed by gore.
But that unicorn stuff is disgusting. I hate how people will make an effort to scar young minds.

@GyroZeppeli Six years old?
Next thing you know, you're gonna tell me that you were already playing Resident Evil games back then, while you should only have been playing wholesome games, like somebody else on here is still doing...

@Delibheel On a side note: who the heck is this Elsa character anyway? I mean: everybody knows Spiderman, but Elsa...

@ThanosReXXX I don’t do that stuff anymore. The only thing I really enjoy from that time was GTA. I hadn’t seen anything weird, so just stealing cars and exploring the city was pretty fun. Would play it again at some other point, yet I don’t even remember which one it was.

They’re probably about equal in relevance at the moment.

Anyway, don’t worry about it, let it go.
