Speaking of fools, you ever hear the one about the guy that gets all upset and angry over people having fun with something that has zero effect on his life?

Has it occurred to you that if you’re going to be of assistance in changing attitudes on rape it’s largely guys you’re going to need to be able to communicate with? If guys are telling you “Hey this is not an effective method for discussing this topic with us” maybe you might want to listen? I mean you can obviously…

I wasn’t saying anything about the predatory nature of men in regards to women. It’s a serious issue, and one that many people seem perfectly content to ignore. However, words have power, and having been raped, I don’t believe that the word should be used to describe anything other than literal rape.

I don’t know - I get the impression that he would act like an entitled dick to anyone, just to inflate his own ego. Probably the bane of all waiters in a 50 mile radius. An “Equal Opportunity Annoyer”, if you will.

I’ve never worked with owls,

Rich people.

My crowd calls them snack-hamsters. I forget how that started...

Yea when I read the “this is because you look like Shia LaBouef” I was like....what in the ACTUAL fuck is that nonsense

I think this is a pretty classy move that doesn’t deserve snark.

I liked him in the Sia video too.

He seems pretty self aware which is cool.

Or the people composing the songs, creating the visuals...pry that goddamn mind open, sheez.

Someone created the program, someone created the song and lyrics.

did the article just go over your head? it’s not about trying to fool people she is alive. and there’s a lot of talent behind the “doll” — this is actually the first time i ever even heard of this act, but i think it’s cool in concept, and the end result is definitely still a human achievement.

Vocaloids do something for budding musicians: they level out the playing field for having a voice and a face. Hatsune Miku is every band and no band at the same time.

He expressed his distaste for the virtual idol that does not affect his life in any way. He stated he no longer wanted to remain on this planet, and this was said directly to the planet. The planet responded with the roar of thunder and the crash of waves upon the ocean. With thundering earthquakes and wind whispering…

If anything you’re totally off the mark — given that the Vocaloid phenomenon is totally and completely fan-driven, and anyone can buy and use the Vocaloid software and voicebanks, if you don’t have talent you won’t succeed as a Vocaloid producer. The people that make Vocaloid music don’t have vapid celebrity…

Are you kidding me? You don’t seem to get how this works. Press agents are dreaming up scandals for her as we type! I imagine the first one will involve some fan who sells all he owns to follow her around the world.

can I have your stuff?

Well too bad. There’s only one planet that’s habitable so far.

I, for one, welcome our new Vocaloid overlords.
