Funny story, I had a teacher in High school. Great guy, beloved by all the students… he had a tradition of letting alumni who had graduated in the last year or 2 come and talk about, well whatever they liked, usually their college experiences and such.
The girl he asked to come back did him the huge favor of deciding she wanted to give a presentation on safe sex (hint: it wasn’t a huge favor).
In the end, he and a health teacher who was essentially unrelated to the whole thing (but did happen to be a lesbian) got fired over it, because some parents got worked up about presenting sexual things to the students.
The concern Pertho is talking about is that he (or more likely his girlfriend) could get some serious shit for that, it doesn’t take much.
*It’s worth noting that there’s some weirdness in his story anyways (being chummy with your partners middle school age students seems a bit odd to me, I admit), but still, there are plenty of things that kids can handle just fine, that you’ll get your shit wrecked if you’re caught giving it to them (lol sexpun)
Wanna know why you feel that way? You are a pervert. Except you think everybody else is a perv as well. If cartoons moving around beating the shit out of each other distracts/arouses you then that is not our problem.
I see them often enough that they know my name. I’m like a secretary to my girlfriend. It really isn’t all that weird. Really do the fact that you have to go more out of your way to explain really points out either dense or fucking stupid the people here are. What’s funny is that they keep bringing it up like its something I have an issue with as opposed to a simple logistics problem.
Oh well. SRK needs to start giving people reading comprehension tests before they sign in.
Well I didn’t read Pertho’s story so I can’t comment there. But I’ll say something about the whole “shit I feel uncomfortable about skullgirls” thing. Why would anyone assume that people who enjoy a decent fighting games with good netcode to be jacking off on the side? What really should be questioned is the motive for this person’s witchhunt, not the witches themselves. Maybe he’s bored and needs some attention. Maybe he’s narrow-minded and needs to make everyone around him to fit his mold. The point is, if someone accuses skullgirls players to be perverted he’s probably the one that’s sick inside.
Same with that poor teacher of yours. Someone should’ve given the committee that forced him to leave a good smack on the back side for exposing his students to something relevant and worth learning. That’s the nature of this whole charade. It’s a bunch of idiots who like to force their own questionable morals onto people around them just so they can feel better about themselves. Should we care?
I can’t let my younger siblings watch me play Skullgirls because my mom would flip her shit. It’s a real shame too, my youngest brother really likes Marvel and I’d love to teach him more about SG.
I agree with that part entirely. But its the fact that you not being able to show it kids as an art form kept being brought up. So as long as it’s a constant point somebody is gonna find a way to work it in as a discussion point more than likely. Personally I couldn’t give a fuck if I can show this game to kids or not. None live in my house. So I’m not gonna bring it up.
On another note anyone who thinks its weird for someone to notice you playing the game, You’re a man right? Material with content such as what SG contains is no biggie. If you’re a woman, you have all the parts they are flaunting in the game, so its still no biggie. Hell I joke with my mom about it when she sees me playing it. A recent situation: She’ll walk in my room and go “What the fuck are you playing? Why are they so bouncy?” and I’ll reply with “Skullgirls, it’s a fighting game. They’re so bouncy because thats how they wanted it to look.”. Then she will proceed to not give a fuck, because she knows that i’ve known for quite some time what tits are. So unless you’ve been sitting there beating off at the character select this game shouldn’t embarrass you unlesss you’re a total perv. And to that dude up there with the roommate, next time he gives you that look just be like “You never seen tits before <insert friendly name calling here>??”
This post is very srsbsns
Edit: I just turned 18, so it’s still fine to live with my mom. Still working up the money to get out. I could see those flames coming a mile away…assholes. Also I do not advocate showing this game to children, do not misinterpret my intentions. Anyone over the age of 14 or 15 seeing the game shouldn’t be weird or wrong at all.
How old are you? Anybody (even you) can watch me play videogames anytime they want. Cept for Dead Space 2…cuz guro…you have to be 13 or older for that one.
Yeah I could see it selling more but then it would be a different game I like skullgirls for its odd art and solid gameplay cant have one without the other
ONTOPIC! My aunt actually made a comment on a smackdown game once…she said women don’t have those…they look so fake. I laughed and pointed out it is a videogame therefore not real. She was like…oh yeah LAWL! Then she played some SF4 and said how easy it was even though the last SF game she had played was SF2. (it had just come out don’t fucking judge me!)
