"Why is the image quality so poor? .... Oh, Photobucket."

Photobucket hasn't been able to make Photobucket work for at least a decade.

Why are you still arguing this? If you break down the root words, it still doesn't mean "irrational fear of homosexuals". It would mean something else, but you're only looking at the root word of "phobia" while ignoring the root word "homo". And no, "phobia" is not exclusive to fear. The definition includes "aversion to". You can have an extreme or irrational aversion to something, but not afraid of it, and still be phobic to it. All you're doing is drawing a pointless line in the sand at the wrong place in order to drag out a meaningless argument you have no footing in.

It has to be conventional to be good? Your complaint is literally "it's weird and I can't handle anything different!" I'm watching Fargo right now. Every season is spent killing a large chunk of the main cast then going to a new cast the next season. Season 2 has a 100% on Rotten Tomatoes and season 3 has a 93%. Or how Twin Peaks would have extended sequences of cryptic surrealism, with that taking up half the finale and an equally large amount of the movie, but it's one of the most influential shows in American TV history. So, yeah, "not conventional" is totally never "appreciated".

"All the fanboys" is just a ludicrously inaccurate generalization. My preference for '99 came in pretty late because I watched 2011 first and took at least 9 months before touching '99. It's more somber, with more contemplative character moments and adds some uniquely high quality filler (some of which is expanded fights). 2011 is probably popular because it follows the source more closely and has Chimera Ant. CA is a ridiculously good arc that's pretty long. 2011 has a more standard upbeat tone, as well.

I called the Nab x Bucket ship at least a month or 2 ago. What do I win?

Why must you be terrible at everything? How do you manage to suck at trolling a Trump supporter that much, then followup by being proud of your weakass troll?

I made a thread with a Jurassic Park pun and it got deleted. Literally no reason. Whichever Mod deleted it: Eat a bag of dicks.

Too late. Already argued with fuggs.

You must have some severe brain damage if you think disliking Tostinos and and lobster equates to only being able to eat in Italy. By the way, my favorite pizza is local. Dumbass.

I've been to Italy.

I never really "got" the appeal of Gamegrumps. Like, it seemed like everyone stopped giving a fuck after JonTron left, but even with JonTron I couldn't follow most of the conversations since it was mostly people screaming over each other.

I wasn't arguing that "homophobia" does mean fear of the same. I was arguing if you base the definition on the root word of -phobia alone, it falls apart by applying the same logic to "homo-", which is used the same as ex: homosexual - attraction to same sex, or homogeneous - "of the same kind".

Yes it does. http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?term=homo- There's more than one "homo". "Homophobia" is derivative of Greek origin root words. Regardless, the other root word is "human" or "male human", so it still wouldn't translate to "fear of homosexuality" no matter how you twist it, not unless you bring in much more modern variations.

Not only, as Nab pointed out, the definition you linked inclusive of "aversion to" and "discrimination against", but if you want to get into semamtics about word meaning based on etymology, "homophobia" shouldn't translate to anything about homosexuality. The prefix "homo" means "same", so "homophobia" should translate to "irrational fear of the same". It doesn't mean that because the word is relatively new to the language and uses the root words loosely. So, just because the literal word means "irrational fear of the same" that's not actually what it is defined as. Wherein, it can be inferred that since "homo" is applied loosely, so may be "phobia".

9/10, properly conveys Nab. Almost too close.
