A response? I'm sorry, did I give the impression that I actually cared what you think? I apologize for the confusion. I was merely using you as a launching point for the fact that we should be using different, more straightforward words to describe people such as yourself. I did not and do not wish to engage with you…

That's because "homophobic" isn't the right word to describe you. A more accurate word is "bigot", "asshole", or "anachronism".

No, a critique is a detailed analysis. Your argument (it is an argument, so you have that, it's just not a very good one) is neither detailed nor is in an analysis. As such, you're just throwing shit at something that you probably haven't thought enough about to even understand.

You're not critiquing it. You're saying it sucks because it doesn't fit your preconceived notions of what art involving cosplay should be.

You're complaining because their artistic aims don't match your desires. So you rant on them with, I assume, the point of changing the art. You're still trying to dictate art whether you realize it or not.

Because the PHOTO was as much the point of the project as the COSTUME. You don't get to dictate when people stop their art. And you picked a bad example to harp on as well. She looks like an action figure. That's an awesome result.

You forgot the pimples, warts, pustules and weeping open sores.

Not really. They're just doing what they've been doing for the last 4 years: change their phrasing around in order to convince you that they were right all along rather than actually changing to meet the needs of people who are not rich. They are still actively campaigning against your (or at least, my) interests.…

Yeah...I actually stopped reading when it got into the people making six figures. If you can't make it work while earning twice the average wage in this country then advice is simple and universal: stop being a shithead and stick to buying reasonable things.

Robinette? Wow. I like the guy...just...wow.

You. Are. The. Worst.

You're awfully pretentious for A) someone named "Francis" and B) someone that never grasped that this whole thing is fucking satire.

Yes, you are the only one. You are sad and alone. Everyone else is in on the joke, having fun and living happier, more social lives.

Why do I get the feeling you REALLY want me to talk about my butt at length?

Who said I was a boy?

You aren't worthy to even think about my butthurt. Be GONE you contemptuous console lickspittle.

I am the ladies and you are not popular with us.

This article is bullshit. You are a member of the PC Master Race. You don't need to defend yourself from anyone, especially the console peons. You are right, you are good, you are perfect. Those that disagree (console vermin) merely demonstrate how unaware they are of their own inferiority. Ignore them like the worms…

Yeah...first time I ate ghost peppers I went overboard. My mouth adjusted well enough. The other side burned so hot after the exit I had to curl up on the bathroom floor for 10 minutes. It seems to have adjusted since then as I haven't had the same problem since.

The refs giveth and they taketh away. In the end, it balances out.
