Dobson claims he hates anime that he actually loves. He also has a comic about how sad the "Butterfry" episode of Pokemon is, even though he claims to hate it too.
Furthermore, the top image is him bashing anime and manga despite one of the characters getting beat, Lum, is from the exact manga he asks for, Urusei Yatsura, and despite his art style and comedic timing being literal bootleg Rumiko Takahashi
Was Dobson laughed out of a hobby store of some kind? This isn't the first time he's gone into a 'nerd store' and been laughed out of it. There must be some deep rooted pain.
Only recent one I can think of is Scott Adams but he's probably a smidge too high-profile
Long story short Adam's had a stepson that killed himself and combining that experience with his belief that mental health services do nothing and you get posts like this.
A man who believes that nothing can be done for a depressed person than to kill them or let them die.
What a cuck. Not to mention that it was his stepson, literally his wife's son that offed himself. I'm sure she'd really appreciate him saying that about her flesh and blood.
Less parents should let their kid die, more society doesn't provide many options for parents if their kid doesn't want to get help and isn't an immediate and present threat in the 'able to get a court order' sort of way
Unfortunately he’s talking about his stepsons suicide. I hope he tried with help, and is angry because it ultimately failed, but I worry he may be explaining that he doesn’t believe in therapy or even church for a suicidal kid, which means he contributed to his sons suicide

>belief that mental health services do nothing
Why are those people always fricking insane? I mean yeah i see it but does it have to be every single time?
In Adams case it's probably a combination of narcisissm, age, and conservative politics, none of which have a tendency to view mental health care as positive.
Adams is one of those people who doesn't think before he speaks. He opens his mouth, says something that makes people mad, then when people tell him how fricked up the thing he said was, he goes 'ah, yes, clearly they are upset because they don't understand' and doubles down on it. I used to read his books (The Dilbert Principle and so on, not the strip omnibuses) and even like 20 years ago, you can see him saying 'now here's a very complex idea, but I'll explain it simply for you'.
tl;dr He's a piece of shit and he's getting validation for being a piece of shit that's making him even more obnoxious.
[...]
Why do people who don't believe in mental health treatment always have mental health problems?
A lot of the older generation failed to raise their children right emotionally, they think food and water and a roof is enough and flip the frick out and won't accept that that isn't enough. So they think fine, okay, if my kid takes the pills then they'll be all better, but obviously it's more complicated than that. They lash out when their kid isn't magically a fully-functioning normalgay just from taking a pill, and they get even angrier when mistakes still happen. Also classic narcissism where they refuse to accept they could have any issues themselves.
t. has actual-boomer parents who act like this
That resonates in a really bad way. It seems like the only ones who made it out okay were the hippies and moreso their children.

Nah. Young Gen X-er here, raised by old boomers. I'm just starting to understand how little the ridiculous clown humans masquerading as my parents actually raised me. They always say that boomers were raised by the TV, but it was their kids that were. From Sesame Street(gotta start that diversity brainwashing early! In a frick-ugly decaying urban setting!) to Saturday morning cartoons to sitcoms and the lonely reality of endless canned laughter... not to mention the steady diet of depravity served up on MTV. Is it any wonder a growing number of my generation are finding themselves absolutely fricking burnt out on pop culture and video/film?
I can't remember the last time I watched TV/streaming media regularly. Cartoons are unwatchable woke trash. Same with live action. I tried to get into Better Call Saul, but I can't be fricking bothered to give a shit. Demoralization is all but complete at this point.
I think we're heading for some kind of massive pop culture collapse, and I for one can't wait for it.

Yes, conservatives and a lot of liberals now are incapable of self-reflection. They cannot be wrong, it's the world that is wrong for not bowing to their obviously superior minds.
I wish I were joking, this is the gift the boomer generation has unleashed on the world. Selfish, uncaring buttholes thinking they are morally upstanding citizens.
Hell it's not even a political thing, I know plenty of apolitical people who are just the right amount of sociopathic that they can't self reflect

The only person in my family who isn't like this is my grandmother. I didn't actually think people could be so mindless and continually destroy the lives if themselves and those around them. I though being an adult would mean something by now. But everyone hasn't regressed past the point I was at when I was 14 abd thought I knew everything because I found out about atheism.
Read the post again, anon. It's Scott Adam's stepson that got depression and committed suicide, not Dobson's. Dobson was still single when he exiled himself from the internet.
Did he do something wrong?
I hate famous people who fish for sympathy on Twitter
Boo hoo I'm successful and set for life it's soo hard
Not on Twitter, but he had a HUGE DA following by being one of the few "professional" artists on the site, and so he had a surprising amount of clout before people realized he was a total hypocrite and couldn't take criticism in the slightest
Not Dobson, Scott Adams. The dude who made Dilbert.
Oh thank god, I got scared for the implications someone like Dobson being able to get laid has for the human race.
For some reason my mind mixed Adam with Andrew.

Because she looked like fricking William Murderface. Even fatter and fricking uglier.
>This isn't the first time he's gone into a 'nerd store' and been laughed out of it.
He 100% is blowing these incidents out of proportion. The guy at the comic shop probably just said, "Sorry, we don't have the classics here." And Dobson took it as an insult. In the other one, he walks into a /tg/ store despite the sign saying it's closed, and interrupts people playing D&D to ask about GameCube games. They probably explained that it's not that kind of store, and informed him that they were closed, and Dobson ran out crying from embarrassment.
>He 100% is blowing these incidents out of proportion.
Same thing probably happened with the people alledgedly mocking his anime of choice (Iria -Zeriam the animation) at his anime club, the reason he hates anime and otakus btw
Oh yeah. It's a college anime club. They were probably making MST3K comments at everything they watched, but Dobson took it personally when they did it to his "artistic choice".
Looks like he went to a comic book shop. I went to one and asked if they had manga and they said no, no big deal. Just went to a Barnes and Noble store.

No, you don't understand. THEY were rude to HIM because they were closed and didn't have his GameCube game and were playing D&D, which he doesn't like.
Ever since he decided he's both antivax but doesn't want to admit antivaxxers were right about anything (ie, YOU WERE ACCIDENTALLY RIGHT), he's completely lost his mind and spiraled into barely coherent sanity.
His old inflation pseudonym was "CattyN." As in catty "Nabiki," a character from Ranma 1/2. His art is 100% inspired by Rumiko Takahashi, with a mix of fricking Garfield of all things.
>Urusei Yatsura >check plot synopsis >it's a most generic "loser has hot girls chasing him for inexplicable reasons" harem plot
no wonder Dobson likes it
also why in the comic does he say "I haven't read any new manga in a while", then go to a shop and ask for something that ran from the 70's to the 80's?
It was basically the first to do that, and part of the joke from what I've seen is that the mc is clearly a shithead who doesn't deserve anyone. It was made by a woman.
>pleb for not watching an anime that ran before I was born, and AFAIK never even aired in my country in any way
you might have a point if it wasn't a fricking harem anime, one of the absolute worst genre's to exist, Tenchi Muyo is saved by it's sci-fi action plot, and Love Hina is a prime example of how the genre is complete SHIT unless you add something to distract from the romance
here's a question: why do YOU think it's so fricking good that it's basically a crime to not know about it? what about it is so precious that it needs to be remembered? the main character being a dumb c**t? the main girl wearing a leopard-skin bikini? the way she's obsessed with him for something """"impressive"""" he did once (by the way, I read the synopsis, he wins a contest against her by ripping her bikini top off to win a competition, how """impressive""", no wonder she fell for him after he cheated in a competition via sexual assault!)
It was the first to do that.
Ironically, the MC does NOT have a harem of hot chicks after his dick, but he DOES want exactly that. The only girl who does like him, he dislikes.
And thus, the source of most of the comedy. As you said, it's from the fricking 70's, so it's a joke that's been told better since then, but you can't get mad at something for being generic, when it is the template.
>it's a joke that's been told better since then
No, it's a joke that has been taken seriously since then because guys wanted to fap to an actual harem scenerio instead of a wannabe harem scenerio played for laughs.
Dobson is so hated in every aspect he even has memes in Cinemaphile. He's the one example I can find of everyone on this godforsaken shithole agreeing on something.
>everyone hates you because you're an attention prostitute >but we let Blendergays have their own circlejerk generals because they make my peepee hard
Guess he should've done wonder bread porn
His fetish is sinister and half witted at the same time. He’s aroused by this idea of the dumb b***h American domestic woman who’s a bimbo and buys mass produced American food. It’s like a cultural criticism but one he pathologically enjoys sexually, and his fixation on a few specific things like wonderbread tells me he’s not firing on all cylinders and probably just running with something obnoxious someone said when he was a kid
>his fixation on a few specific things like wonderbread tells me he’s not firing on all cylinders and probably just running with something obnoxious someone said when he was a kid.
IIRC the bully in his comics was always blonde because he got bulled by a blonde kid when he was young.

Wrong guy, my friend. Blonde Bully is Dobson, but that anon was talking about Murrlogic, aka wonder bread/deforestation guy
>And it's so out there he can never do anything about it in real life.
But the post above pointed out that he's a genuinely sexist, racist butthole towards real people. You'd just be fueling his narcissism.
The thing about wonderbread guy is he is also a massive attention prostitute and sorta of an butthole. Im talking attention prostitute levels to the point where he went to his own kf thread and shared info about himself.
Theres tons of fetishes far weirder than his out there but what got him the notoriety was the personality he had combined with the weird kink.
That's always been my problem. I've never had any issue with anyone's kinks, even the far out ones or the ones I could never 'get': I used to be friends with a girl into 'erotic cannibalism'. Every episode of Hannibal was like wall-to-wall masturbation fuel for her. Right now, I'm buddies with a guy into giantesses, and I mean four meters, minimum, the bigger the better. But both of them were well aware of how absurd they were and had a sense of humour about it. People who are so far up their own ass, they can recycle their own lunch, they can just frick off. I'm pretty sure your rampaging self-righteousness is another kink of yours and I'm not indulging that one without money up-front.
It's not about hating fetishes, it's about how baffling murr's "fetish" is, considering none of the subject matters (i.e. consumerism, deforestation, industrialization) is baffling from an erotic perspective. How does one get turned on by that? At least with floor tiles the pattern is aesthetically pleasing...
Nobody would give a frick about Murrlogic if he didn't have the streecred of being turned down by Shadman.
And, so far I've only seen hearsay of the event. Some of it by murrlogic himself. Shadman drew porn of his own overweight mother on Mother's day. He drew porn of the Flamethrower guy from TF2 snuggling up to a pile of burnt bodies. I just cannot believe someone who's drawn THAT would even register murrlogic's bullshit as even particularly bizarre. Because he's drawn worse.
I think his own mother and the Pyro had some kind of comedic merit, but limp dick dry orgasm, on top of Murrlogic’s already weird industrial fetish shit, was just too much. It’d would kind of be like asking a foot fetish artist for a simultaneous armpit/hair job while clowns throw pies in the background, or something.
Shadman didn't draw Chris Chan eating out his own mother, despite the fact in 2012 he drew Ed Gould being raped by death like the day of his announcement.
I'm 99% sure it's less shad thinking it's too "far" and moreso that he's really pussed up over time in recent years. Same reason why the last year or so before he got arrested, most of his tweets were just him giving shitty life advice instead of porn.
>he's really pussed up over time in recent years
You get tired of being edgy eventually. I don't say 'Black person' nearly as often as I did in college.
Having a strange fetish on its own isn't enough. There are much weirder fetishes out there. Fetishes that require flowcharts to get someone off. Car fricking, toe vore, weightlessness, freezing, vacuums, whatever the frick. The problem is when there's drama or theatrics around the fetish that turn the fetish itself into the punching bag. Dobson is a b***h inflating crackers. In another timeline where Dobson had some self awareness he would still be drawing and posting under a more reasonable pseudonym in a sea of other weirder fetishists.
That and someone took over his responsibilities for the anime club. Because Dobson stopped showing anime and started hooking up his gamecube to the projector and playing harvest moon
I can't speak on Cinemaphile's behalf, but for me, at least, the "evil Goku plot" was dumb, specially when they not only combined it with time travel, but also when the real reason for that "Goku" to be evil was revealed.
In just an hour "Tree of Might" was able to tell a more entertaining "Evil Goku" story with a villain that's actually enjoyable.
Well, conceptually it was dumb, but that comes with adapting fanfiction. The animation was horrendous on average. The plot was very poorly paced, always coming to awkward halts so Toei could drag it out and pull some stupid moments, like every time Trunks was given an asspull only to get his shit pushed in, the back and forth on time travel or the Zamasu reveal stalling. The final act however takes the cake, from the Mafuba fake out with Goku forgetting the macguffin and retconing Potara to keep Vegetto from finishing it to the out of thin air spirit bomb on the sword of friendship crap and Trunks "winning" by having his entire reality deleted by a toddler on Goku's behalf and then being told by the deities he should just hijack another timeline and live with copies of himself and his girlfriend. It's a shame it's so bad because both granny Goku and Zamasu's VA were stellar.

Your thinking of Cinemaphile is outdated. That might've been true 10 years ago, but anymore Cinemaphile has 24/7 shounen generals since mods no longer give much of a shit. They still draw a few lines regarding off topic content, i.e. pepes and wojacks will get you banned instantly, but any semblance of gatekeeping anime discussion, no matter how shitty, is gone.
I'm half convinced those Cinemaphile generals are mostly just bots interacting with each other. It's just the same shit day in and day out. Notice how they don't actually respond in any meaningful way they just spout pre canned lines in response to certain stimuli

Long story short Adam's had a stepson that killed himself and combining that experience with his belief that mental health services do nothing and you get posts like this.
A man who believes that nothing can be done for a depressed person than to kill them or let them die.
What is the subject at hand? What did his stepson do? Is he talking about a school shooting, or is he talking about something like drug use? And I hate to say it Scott but isn’t a third option prison?
Apparently his stepson was severly depressed, but Adams apparently doesn't believe in mental health, so instead of trying to get him help, he just let him blow his own brains out and took a "That's just what happens to broken people; they can't be helped" stance.
Okay I can see him survive that if you see this in reaction to a recent death of son he loved.
Still majorly fricked up but I would say grief is the cause
I didn't take it at face value and it's still pretty fricked because the gist is "Let your family suffer in silence in hopes that their eventual self-destruction is as contained as possible and admitting your own hand in their suffering"
>This person tweeted this >Calling anybody else mentally ill
I'm not trying to be edgy but I would consider offing myself if this was my stepdad as well. What a c**t
This sounds like someone trying to convince themselves that there was nothing they could have done to prevent a personal tragedy.
Maybe there was, maybe there wasn't, but why the hell would you post this on Twitter, and if you do, why would you make yourself sound like a emotionless sociopath ?
Possible he may have posted in the DA cringe thread when he was mentioned.
How does Dobson manage to keep getting consistent threads here when Chris Chan: >Disappeared from the public eye way after Dobson >Disappeared in a way more spectacular way compared to Dobson, who basically went afk out of nowhere >Has easily 10x the amount of content to discuss, along with it being way more interesting
And gets like a fraction of the attention that Inflate-a-Bear does here
I think it's because Dobson is easier to understand like a Saturday morning cartoon while Chris is like trying to understand the entirety of the marvel universe. Dobbo is more relatable in that he makes mistakes anyone could make and we can learn from. While you can learn some things from Chris's story a lot of it is too bizarre to really relate to for most people. Plus there is a sliver of hope for Dobson, people might understandably disagree with me on this but I don't think his art is that bad and if he could just stop being a stubborn opinionated idiot he could find some success with his art, and while it's funny to watch him frick up I think people would be pretty pleased to see him turn things around and succeed. Chris on the other hand is in jail because he fricked his mom, granted he was already too fricked to make a turnaround before that but there is no hope for a good ending to that story. The "best" ending for Chris is death, the more probable and more depressing ending is spending his remaining years in a mental institution writing letters to weens.
dude gets compliments on his stuff but only focuses on the negatives. if you've been coming to Cinemaphile for 17 years and haven't learned how to ignore trolls then what's the point?
I remember the thread. It was, overall, a fun thread. I even remember telling UltraHand I was looking forward to whatever he was going to draw with the characters, specially Sandy.
And yes, there were trolls and shit, but nothing you would not expect from Cinemaphile, with art and characters like those.
But all it took to break him was a single twitter post? Damn... the only thing I regret is there not being more Sandy in the future.
>But all it took to break him was a single twitter post?
He already started being triggered in the actual thread itself. And just like you did, there were a lot of positive replies, many which I personally considered too positive even.
>He already started being triggered in the actual thread itself.
Yeah, I should have said: "but the straw that broke the camel's back was a twitter post?"
Goldie would fit right into his fat fetish artwork, I bet no one that's consumed his work wouldn't bat an eye if he did. He can't keep it out in his pants. The way he drew that muffin top, the belly button, and her overall shape reeks of obvious fatty wank.
There was an entire thread on Cinemaphile of people trying to point this out to him, but he never let himself listen. Also, he went on to pretend it was all "haters" or something, when there was a lot of people offering fair criticism.
I was in that thread too, bro. It was so fricking funny that he came up with this pitch for a Loud House knockoff and expected no one to pick up on the blatant fatty wank character with the big belly. It's difficult for me to tell whether Ultrahand is just an insecure guy with an overinflated ego if he's just crazy.

He did later comment on the power girl incident, claiming that he wasn’t in the picture as he made the entire incident up. Ignoring how that made him look like even more of a homosexual, but, “I was never there because it never happened” was his official stance on the matter.
Seriously.
What the hell was this dude thinking? Between the time it took to click on the tweet, find the image, and press "reply" did it not run through his head that it was a terrible idea?
I’ve always thought that the most generous interpretation was that he straight up didn’t know that Zelda Williams was Roger Williams’s daughter, that he only knew about her in relation to gamergate and thought that people would actually back him for dunking on some gamergate chick that was on the “wrong side”, that he didn’t realize it was the anniversary of Roger Williams’s death, and that he thought the tweet was just Zelda being overly dramatic about a vague problem that he figured wasn’t a big deal, and so he assumed he was telling a chick with a mild anxiety disorder to get over having a bad day because she had to talk to somebody in the grocery store or some stupid shit.
But even if he was a big enough dumbass to get every one of those things so badly wrong, what I can’t really get past is the fact that he probably had hundreds of people instantly step in to tell him what was really going on and exactly why he had been an butthole to Zelda. And then he still couldn’t properly take accountability and apologize because he steadfastly refuses to ever admitting to being wrong about anything. His non apology is even worse than the initial tweet , I think.
I'm always a bit cynical of the idea that he didn't know who she was, since Zelda Williams was considered a bit of a goddess to loser nerds back in the early '10s.
I think he had some sorta idea of who she was, but even just forgetting enough fir him to not realize that she was talking about her father’s death makes him seem much less douchey.
Don't forget "Some people found that offensive. Sorry you feel that way."
yes, he made a tweet saying it was in bad taste and that "don't say that I never apologize.". somehow he managed to sound even more butthole than normal
my problem with this, so what? Even if he didn't know any of that, as you said he didn't know then what her problem was, why she claimed to be sad/depressed, so how could ANY person that claims to be decent(which he does) say something like "Calm your breasts", especially someone who also claims to be woke.
None of it makes sense
Interpreting it in the best possible way for him makes it seem like he could have been just kind of a hypocritical dick instead of downright cruel and extremely shitty. I don’t think there’s any interpretation where he comes off as a saint, but if you give him a big amount of the benefit of the doubt, he’s still not a good guy, he’s just not as bad of a person. Until, of course, the “apology.”
I’m certain that he at the very least intended to come off as though he were ribbing Zelda. In that best possible scenario, I think he thought his response would be taken favorably from his followers because he figures they don’t like Zelda, the way he doesn’t, and to him it’s okay for him to be mean to people he doesn’t like, because they “deserve” it. That’s why he thought killing Trump would be totally fine. He thinks it’s not murder just as long as it’s a bad person being killed.
Probably in the same way a lot of women were.
They weren't informed about anything that happened but saw a man v woman dichotomy and chose to side with the woman.
It would make sense, since the reason GG started was because of Zoe Quinn releasing her """Game""" about depression on the same day her dad commits suicide and instead of keeping her mouth shut Quinn still announced it was coming out. Not that anyone remembers or wants this fact to come out.
Yeah haha which is funny because assuming a woman is being hysterical over something unimportant, when they’re actually feeling grief at the first anniversary of their fathers death? That’s a misogyny
To give him the benefit of the doubt, he may have been living under a rock and not known what she was talking about. Because he'd have to be a complete psycho to post that if he did know. Still a douchey thing to post in any context, but whatever.
Either:
a) he didn't know she was Williams' daughter and just got attracted by the name "Zelda"
b) he tried to be cool and edgy to get his KiwiFarms stalkers to like him more

It's just making fun of the set phrase people use before they level a critique at the status quo: "we live in a society where ____". Thus it was attributed to the Heath Ledger Joker, who has lots of similar statements in that movie. 'We live in a society' is an absurd joke because the following critique is thus excluded, leaving it a self-evident and innocuous statement delivered as though it were some mind-blowing revelation.

back in like 2015/2016 Ironybros would make fun of those "Nice Guys" who identified with the joker because they were oppressed because they were gamers or something by making memes like pic related; the phrase "we live in a society" was spread around and used frequently enough until the joke became where you'd say it over something stupidly trivial or completely absurd https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zIjhngRPEvE

housing crisis solved
I mean they're both cartoonists who are controversial figures due to their views, i would've said Ben Garrison instead but i think he actually got banned during the 2020 election stuff
I am Andrew Dobson, and I'm here to ask you a question.
Is a man not entitled to make comics however he wants?
'No!' says the artist, 'You're ignoring fundamental principles.'
'No!' says the reader, 'Your writing is full of strawmen.'
'No!' says Anonymous, 'Die in a fricking fire.'
I rejected those answers; instead, I chose something different. I chose the impossible. I chose...
Denial, the city where the artist would not fear critique, where the writer would not be bound by petty logic or grammar, where the ego would not be bruised by reality! And by not listening to criticism, Denial can become your city as well.
>"Some people didn't like that"
This clearly turns it into a "I'm jsut trying to save my skin" "apology," because he's making himself out to be a victim.
>Didn't explain why it was bad and inappropriate, possibly still unaware >Mentioning others, who had no involvement >Explanation of what happened is bigger than the actual, two-worded apology
Are people with self-awareness a rarity?
lol what the frick is wrong with this guy. Hate to say it but that kind of shit attitude would catch you an ass whipping around where I live. Literally just deleting the tweet and never mentioning it again would have been vastly better than this condescending shit.
Everyone should just stop talking about lolcows who exited themselves from the internet, because that's what they're supposed to do. Otherwise the discussion starts spinning wheels, like in Dobson's case
How does Dobson manage to keep getting consistent threads here when Chris Chan: >Disappeared from the public eye way after Dobson >Disappeared in a way more spectacular way compared to Dobson, who basically went afk out of nowhere >Has easily 10x the amount of content to discuss, along with it being way more interesting
And gets like a fraction of the attention that Inflate-a-Bear does here
I have a theory that someone who's obsessed with failures keeps posting these Dobson threads. Instead of finding someone new they latched onto him because they invested too much time learning all the details of all the awkward shit he did. There's no good reason why Dobson pops up as frequently as he does here other than being some autist's obsession.

Because these threads were always based on a sort of "empathetic cringe" that required seeing how the lolcow arrived at their worldview and on some level seeing and reflecting on how you yourself avoided those pitfalls.
Dobson is just a sad, sad little man who never got very good at all at his craft and was haunted by the embarassing things he made in the past and never could seem to figure out what to say.
Chris Chan is signing his name as Jesus now and being reverse-groomed by 16 year olds on Discord. He was interesting when he was a deep-on-the-spectrum fella with a comic inability to discern fantasy from reality when it came to interpersonal relationships and signals. Now it's just baffling, and baffling is not funny.
>Now it's just baffling, and baffling is not funny.
He was always baffling, when people first found out about the guy he was hanging out in public libraries hanging up boyfriend application posters (didnt he also have the medallion at this point i forgot); he was well beyond the normal autist standards even without the help of fellow online degenerates. The dude who has a docu-series on youtube whose length rivals most live-action tv shows has gotta bring more entertaining discussion than posting the same tweets/comics over and over and over
how is he not suspended for that? what the frick, i see artists getting suspended for more moronic reasons than this shit bag over here.
beats me, they've let Stonetoss amass >200k followers without even one suspension/strike/whatever system birdapp uses, and you know whoever moderates that hellsite are dying to be the one to bring the hammer down. I think that they let these kind of accounts proliferate because the controversy they generate increases site traffic, its the only reasonable explanation i can think of
Chris Chan is just kinda overplayed. Like, he's a quality lolcow, but you get sick of him after hearing about him non-stop for so long--especially after the whole Oedipus incident.
Chris Chan has always been a time bomb, the only thing different than was expected was that it was just set off a little earlier than everyone thought
Dobson, on the other hand, was a lolcow in his prime, and he suddenly dropped off the face of the earth, which can be very interesting for people who like mysteries and don't mind digging into peoples' personal lives
Chris is so far detached from reality that it's hard to blame him for most of his nonsense. Dobson is all hubris. You can't even really feel bad for the guy because he's a dick.
>Inflate-a-Bear
There it is. It's fun to mock a sanctimonious "ally" that portraits himself as a fedora-wearing carebear and pumps his meat to woman exploding despite claiming to be a feminist. Chris, on the other hand, is turning into Shoko Asahara by the day.
eh, your political views dont have anything to do with what you fap to. i have a pregnancy fetish, doesnt mean i oppose abortion rights.
although dobby does not have political views as such, just whatever gets him the most twitter airplay
>I made the mistake of showing something I shouldn't have which resulted in a girl, who had child-abuse issues, reliving a particularly nasty flashback which almost got the club disbanded by the College Board.
what the frick did he show
Honestly, I'm too frightened to discuss that freak anymore. Chris is a walking nightmare and if I never see a thread about him again it'll be a thousand years too soon.
dobson is a pathetic cis male, while chris chan is a brave transgender woman who found herself and then did a kind of bad thing, so he needs to be swept under the rug
First, of his 14 Patreon subscribers, one leaked his content, including the Muslim vampire comic, to KiwiFarms. To prevent this, he set his minimum pledge level at a ridiculous amount, somewhere in the thousands. Then he tried to frame the tumblr blog that documents his moronation as his “life-long abuser”, blaming them for following and harassing him across the web for a decade. Literally no one believed him, so he quit. Also, around this time his brother deleted his Facebook, which is why you have anons who make claims like “Dobson cost his brother a job. Dobson’s parents found out about his shit”, but there isn’t any proof of that.
I just guess everyone is interested in why he suddenly vanished is because we expected some long ass essay from Dobson about how he was a victim, how he's sad, blah blah blah and make some declaration that he's better than everyone for leaving the internet, only for him to come right back in just a few weeks.
This could be good for him to get actually get away from the internet for awhile but I feel like he's lurking lots of sites and waiting for the eventual "They'll miss me so much when I'm gone!"
>the eventual "They'll miss me so much when I'm gone!"
That may aswell be what all these dobson threads have been, tho its not missing him per say and more missing being able to take the piss out of him.
I think what's most cringe is he definitely used that pic of Jane Foster because he wanted to show how much he likes Whor and to get people talking about how cool it is that her existence was totally making dudebros and misogynists mad and undoubtedly thought he'd get people to bring this up and praise him for it in the comments
i wonder if dobson woyld've been better if he remained as being Catty-N. no exposing personal info, opening his market to furry inflation porn as well and just remain distance from interacting with anyone
Probably I mean there are fetish artist out there with arguably way worse art styles you never hear about because they're just happy catering to their niche market. Or at least if they do decide to have a public facing persona they're pretty open about their porn.

This is too cool for Dobson. Kind of makes me want to see a series about some grizzled, jerk artist bear guy. Like, not to mock Dobson, but just as a character.
i wonder if dobson woyld've been better if he remained as being Catty-N. no exposing personal info, opening his market to furry inflation porn as well and just remain distance from interacting with anyone
Honestly? No.
I've always theorized that one of the reasons he has such a hate boner for anime is because he got supplanted by the way of early 00's anime inspired hyper fetish artists that quickly outpaced him in terms of skill, productivity, and thus popularity.
I guarantee that it was because he was called an entry level poser who only liked dated shit. He was probably mouthing off about how 80s wapanese tiddy toons were better and hadn't watched anything new or any seinen OVAs from the 80s and 90s. I can't see him appreciating anything by Kon or the old adult swim lineup.
Did he do something wrong?
I hate famous people who fish for sympathy on Twitter
Boo hoo I'm successful and set for life it's soo hard
Yes, but no. Dobson was never successful, or popular for that matter, but god did he ever know how to wine on twitter. I think a lot of the initial hate came from his comics being pretty sub-par and having some pretty god awful opinions. Which people made fun of him for. His reaction to getting made fun of though was to constantly cry and whine, which in turn attracted even more trolls. Which then basically became a death spiral of self pity, whining on twitter, and attracting more trolls.
Really Dobson is a great case study in how not to present yourself on the internet.
I like how that comic and this comic complement each other. >look, I'm wearing a button saying you can talk to me, respect my button. >what's that, a sign that says closed? I must enter!
>doesn't want to socialize with anyone at conventions
Imagine you’re depressed and your dad doesn’t believe in therapy and you have a nice day, and your dad is still so fricking up his own solipsistic ass that he cares more about being respected for not believing in therapy than he cares that you fricking died
>genuinely enjoy a good sandwich >Friend has a habit of asking what I've eaten for ideas for his own food because he forgets to eat >for about 3 months straight I have various deli meat n cheese sandwiches or PB&J for lunch >Comes out and asks me if i'm Murrlogic >Have to google who the frick that is >20 minutes later finally tell him no I am not and will keep my sandwiches to myself from now on because jesus god damn christ my man
There's been a lot of times in my life where I thought I was hurt but none of them add up to the idea of being mistaken for the fricking wonderbread fetishist.
>he repeatedly asks YOU what you're eating >"dude, like, you're always on about sandwiches!! r u murrlogic???"
Christ, that's obnoxious, even hearing it as an uninvolved party.
No. Not like it was in any good place before hand.
Keep in mind too taht when he apoligized about it later he doesn't even understand WHY it was a bad time to do that. He just assumes it was a bad quip and people blew it out of proportion. The guy gives actual morons a run for their self awareness money.
This is less a problem with Dobson, but a problem with people in general, but I hate argument by analogy. It demonstrates a lack of understanding of any real comparison and the analogy can be almost always be extended until it doesn't make sense.
>I hate argument by analogy.
Disliking argument from analogy is indicative of low IQ. People who dislike analogy and hypotheticals tend to be unintelligent and unusually inflexible in their thinking.
I'd argue the issue is most arguments by analogy are fricking shit because the arguer. Frequently it's just simplistic and reductive and when scrutinized doesn't hold up.
Dobson's comic isn't about making a real argument or defense but to use loaded connotations to try and influence you.
Obviously it's fine to dislike a shitty analogy, you can even say the majority of analogies are bad and that's probably true, but disliking them on principle speaks to a kind of cognitive inflexibility.
Dobson thinks he's unique and special for doing things wrong. See his art style, using the paint bucket for all his coloring, insisting his Mac is great whole streaming Skyrim at 10 fps, etc.
When I was in an art class, the instructor actually told me that a clipboard and paper sheets was a better way to go about it because you could compile all your good drawings into one "book" at any photocopy shop that offers book binding service.
It's shit paper and so far from being archival I'd recommend newsprint over it. You want something with a little tooth and texture for pencil sketching and it's absolute dogshit for inks. But I'm a watercolorgay and we're autistic about paper.
>clipboard and paper
what a psychopath. get a fricking notebook/sketchbook, you goober.
Also, note that he's drawing "Popeye-arms Princess Toadstool", an off-model version of the Princess from the Mario DIC cartoon that never actually existed except in his head.
Well, Dobson didn't frick his mom, nor does he spout nonsense about being the second coming of Jesus and dimensional merges, so I'd say he's better as a person mentally, but worse as a lolcow
>your father takes his own life because he has a rare form of early onset dementia that was already bad but would only get worse with time >post a tweet about how you're feeling >some literally who neckbeard with a furry pfp responds to you with an edited thor comic that says "calm thine breasts"
if I were Zelda there would be no survivors
That was the last straw honestly, he was always just an empty douche but there was where you saw that he was just an idiot on top of it. No one here has any claim on being tactful, but even the hardest of autists know to just stay quite about shit like that when they’re typing under their own name
There's also the case where Rob wasn't even killing himself in a lucid state as a sort of euthanasia and he was in an epusode of extreme fear. He likely went out in the worst way possible and this was a guy that made us all smile and laugh. He didn't fricking deserve it.
I do wonder what was going through his mind when he tweeted this at her. Like it was common knowledge what was going on with her at this point. Her dad just killed himself and she was venting, but this literal who autist decided to shit on her. Did he have some kind of beef with the Williams family or something? It's just bafflingly.
I'm not sure what the context is or the proof, but we do know of two physical jobs he had but didn't like, one being at an airport, handling luggage, and one being a UPS delivery man, where he quit literally half a day in because he didn't get a UPS truck and he didn't want to walk everywhere. Considering those two jobs, it's entirely likely it was actual physical security. Probably full on Paul Blart Mall Cop
>the final blow came when Detective Boy Conan was introduced and remade as "Case Closed"
2003. That's when Dobbles wrote off anime forever as just a bunch of trash new shows about ogling schoolgirl panties, unlike the good old days.
Oh yeah, even though he's not entirely wrong, he's just "Old man shouts at cloud" status with it, especially considering Urusei Yatsura and Ranma 1/2 is just as reliant on fanservice
>I made the mistake of showing something I shouldn't have which resulted in a girl, who had child-abuse issues, reliving a particularly nasty flashback which almost got the club disbanded by the College Board.
what the frick did he show
And that's why everyone hates him. Not because he's inherently bad at art, his college works are surprisingly competent, but because he's overly sensitive and makes himself look like the victim
It all clicked now to me. The underlying reason for his seethe. >felt Nintendo betrayed him in 1996 ~ 1998 >gave up on anime in 2003
This was in high school/college and the things he liked became mainstream and he wasn't the special little boy any more. His world changed and he resented that more than anything.
i think its mostly because he wants to be a hipster, it's not like he understood those things to begin with, he fricking hates mary-oh, zelda, and metroid outside of the piddly shit he peddles.

Maybe, but I noticed in his anime rant >My once favorite shows were now popular and horribly dubbed and aired out of order on various TV stations.
Remember, his inflation pen-name is a character from Gall Force, which he might have had on subtitled VHS as early as 1992.
And then, when he's in high school? As anime starts entering the mainstream with Pokemon and DBZ? In that magic year of 1996?
>sub purist when people wanted easy access dubs >nintendo fanboy when Sony was winning the market hand over fist >fanboy from the NES era when games had long since moved to newer things
What he thought made him unique no longer mattered. Look at how he derisively says >All my friends were just geeks who loved a show for no good reason except for the fact that it was Anime.
It stinks of an angry teen who thought he might be the shepherd to the masses, to get people on what HE wanted more than anything.

>What he thought made him unique no longer mattered.
Honestly, that sounds accurate. I don't have it, but I remember a comic where he's growing up, and everyone sounds super supportive of his art, up until adulthood when he gets slammed on the internet. It just sounds like he was coddled throughout his youth and was told "You're so special and talented!". Once he got to college and found out he wasn't so special after all, combined with him not being able to take criticism because of said pandering, he just dug into his comfort zone and lashed out at anyone who didn't pander to him and stagnated/regressed as an artist
Just spent a good few minutes trying to figure out what he meant by "out College" only realize he meant "our College". Also is he saying his anime night inspired the creation of a college porn club?
Don't worry, anon, SYAC is ALL A LIE and totally not him just him deflecting criticism that makes him look worse in retrospect
Of all the reasons to start hating anime, getting your favorites MST3K'd has to be one of the lamest
I think Dobson's core issue is that he just doesn't understand just how generic he and his takes are. Aside from the lulcow factor, he's an intensely uninteresting person with a dull art style and a totally mediocre writer's voice and ability. Nothing about he or his work, or his life, is compelling in the slightest. And yet he feels the need to portray himself as some tragic voice of reason and virtue.
"So You're a Cartoonist" is like some Hegelian(I just learned what that means!) exercise in trying to convince us and himself that he's not a complete zero. He's desperate for others to ascribe some kind of shock value in his utterly asinine, narcissistic takes.
>I was in charge of planning nights >I had no social life on the weekends, because it was consumed by the club
A) I doubt he had a busy social schedule to destroy.
B) He could have asked for help. >All my friends were just geeks
Once again, Dobson acting like he's better than "other nerds" while claiming to be one. >stole the anime club
But I thought it was destroying your social life. Shouldn't you be happy? >and did a poor job running it
Ah yes, tragic that this thing you hated fell apart after you abandoned it.
Side note, what was wrong with Case Closed? I remember it still had murder, which is the only thing I could imagine needing censored.
>Side note, what was wrong with Case Closed?
Shinichi Kudo became Jimmy Kudo and Ran Mouri became Rachel Moore.
Name changes and vaguely trying to avoid mentioning it took place in Japan were the only changes in the dub.
>Side note, what was wrong with Case Closed? I remember it still had murder, which is the only thing I could imagine needing censored.
I don't remember any censorship (there was covered nudity I remember) but IMO the localisation was bad because it became untenable; Early on it didn't matter but some of the cases relied on knowledge of Japanese language and culture and it was just sort of brushed over the best they could.
Does he have ANY friends? My armchair psychology senses are tingling, but he seems like he blocks out anyone who criticizes him and spends almost all his time alone and stews about why no one can rise to his level. He has no one to really talk about the stuff that bothers him and so it festers.

There's a good chance he has no friends BECAUSE of how he lashes out at people who dares even say anything negative at him, leading to this negative feedback loop
Getting sent to prison for being a sex pest honestly sounds incredibly Dobsonian. Just imagine the distant year of 2030:
>Okay, so I've been in prison for a while. I really didn't want to talk about this, but I have the feeling that eventually some trolls will dig up my arrest report and I want to get in front of it. >In 2018, I attended a party. An adult party. With drinking. I hit it off with someone and she told me, very clearly, that she wanted to get intimate but that she wanted to stay a little longer first >Eventually the party started clearing out and my date had had what I now realize was too much to drink. >I found her on a bed in a spare bedroom and asked her if her offer still stood and she very clearly said "yes". I'll leave what happened next to your imaginations. >In the morning she woke up and was upset for some reason. Naturally, I was very confused by this as reminded her that we had had a prior arrangement and I had received affirmative consent. Anyway, that didn't stop two of her jock friends from busting into the room uninvited and roughing me up. >The cops were called and it turned out that, despite what she had told me the night before, she was in fact underage. I tried to explain my side of things to the cops but I was beaten and arrested anyway, despite mentioning the fact that I had been assaulted and the victim of fraud. >As I didn't have the cash to make bond and none of my so-called friends decided to help me, I ended up staying in prison I tried to explain myself at trial but it didn't help >Frankly, I don't feel like any of this was fair but at this point I'm used to life not treating me fairly. I'm also pretty sure that the cops and the judge had it out for me. >Past that there's not much to tell, I served my time and was released early for good behavior. So that's where I've been. >I have nothing but remorse for my actions (whatever the good faith in which I acted) and simply wish to put this behind me.
What really happened: >"""Somehow""" Dobson ended up at a party with high schoolers >A fat, drunk wallflower with zero self-esteem (oh hey, just like the only girl who ever showed any interest in him in high school) flirted with him a little bit after he mentioned he was a professional artist, but rapidly got creeped out and started dodging him while Dobson just sat at the edge of the room watching her get drunker and drunker; she never mentioned her age but Dobson saw her drinking and decided that she was obviously legal >He was asked to leave, said that he forgot his hat and used that excuse to sneak upstairs >He found her passed out, asked if he could pork her and she mumbled something >She woke up the next morning to a fat, naked, balding forty year-old with a micropeen spooning her and something wet on her thighs and panicked >Dobson tried to calmly and rationally remind her that she had consented last night and told him that she was on contraception, but two other guests who had slept over called the cops while the girl ran to the bathroom and started crying; when the cops pulled up out front Dobson tried to run but was stopped by the same guests who had called the cops. >His situation was not helped by trying to explain to the cops that he was lied to and had done nothing wrong and that he wanted to charge the two men who stopped him from leaving with unlawful imprisonment. >When he found out that yes, he was being arrested and there was nothing he could do about it, he started screaming and thrashing in an attempt to get the cops to hit him but this didn't work out very well because the whole thing was being filmed; he did, however, manage to cut his head on the car door >After that sratagem failed, he tried to bribe them on the way to the station, first with art commissions and then with cash >At trial, he insists on taking the stand himself and it went as well as you'd expect >Sent to state prison, eventually released early for snitching

Not that it's particularly funny or anything but my favorite Dob rant will always be when he got butthurt about not being able to play Sonic Generations because it wasn't on the Wii, and even offered some backseat how-to-program advice.
Come on, Dobbles, what about OTHER GAME? You don't need Sonic Generations!
Zelda is a stupid, do-nothing c**t and should calm her breasts. Her life online is purely about attention and fueled wholly by who here father was. Pretending anyone should give a shit what she feels is sure sign of a moronic npc.
what's even going on here?
Well it looks like a guy telling a woman having problems to calm her breasts
He tweeted that in response to Robin Williams' daughter talking about dealing with his death.
He just faded away after this.
Robin Williams killed himself probably and his daughter was sad. Then Dobson was Dobson, for reasons known only to Dobson.
"Recover" implies it had a high point. He made mediocre comics, repeatedly demonstrated that he was an butthole, pissed off everyone, and left.
I don't get this.
Dobson claims he hates anime that he actually loves. He also has a comic about how sad the "Butterfry" episode of Pokemon is, even though he claims to hate it too.
So he isn't the one who drew that?
Or is he just self aware?
He drew it. He's a hypocrite.
His whole purpose of going to the store is to find a new manga, but he asks for something old that he's already familiar with.
Furthermore, the top image is him bashing anime and manga despite one of the characters getting beat, Lum, is from the exact manga he asks for, Urusei Yatsura, and despite his art style and comedic timing being literal bootleg Rumiko Takahashi
>Rumiko Takahashi invented mallets, wanted posters and punching people
Go back to bed, Dobson.
>What are you talking about, bro? I hate Dragon Ball.
Was Dobson laughed out of a hobby store of some kind? This isn't the first time he's gone into a 'nerd store' and been laughed out of it. There must be some deep rooted pain.
>let your children die
What's this guy on about?
Dude's been nuts for a while.
Sounds like he's saying parents should kill their kid if they suspect they'll be a spree shooter.
What a cuck. Not to mention that it was his stepson, literally his wife's son that offed himself. I'm sure she'd really appreciate him saying that about her flesh and blood.
Less parents should let their kid die, more society doesn't provide many options for parents if their kid doesn't want to get help and isn't an immediate and present threat in the 'able to get a court order' sort of way
Unfortunately he’s talking about his stepsons suicide. I hope he tried with help, and is angry because it ultimately failed, but I worry he may be explaining that he doesn’t believe in therapy or even church for a suicidal kid, which means he contributed to his sons suicide
Long story short Adam's had a stepson that killed himself and combining that experience with his belief that mental health services do nothing and you get posts like this.
A man who believes that nothing can be done for a depressed person than to kill them or let them die.
>belief that mental health services do nothing
Why are those people always fricking insane? I mean yeah i see it but does it have to be every single time?
>Why are people with insane ideas insane?
Gee I wonder.
In Adams case it's probably a combination of narcisissm, age, and conservative politics, none of which have a tendency to view mental health care as positive.
Adams is one of those people who doesn't think before he speaks. He opens his mouth, says something that makes people mad, then when people tell him how fricked up the thing he said was, he goes 'ah, yes, clearly they are upset because they don't understand' and doubles down on it. I used to read his books (The Dilbert Principle and so on, not the strip omnibuses) and even like 20 years ago, you can see him saying 'now here's a very complex idea, but I'll explain it simply for you'.
tl;dr He's a piece of shit and he's getting validation for being a piece of shit that's making him even more obnoxious.
Why do people who don't believe in mental health treatment always have mental health problems?
A lot of the older generation failed to raise their children right emotionally, they think food and water and a roof is enough and flip the frick out and won't accept that that isn't enough. So they think fine, okay, if my kid takes the pills then they'll be all better, but obviously it's more complicated than that. They lash out when their kid isn't magically a fully-functioning normalgay just from taking a pill, and they get even angrier when mistakes still happen. Also classic narcissism where they refuse to accept they could have any issues themselves.
t. has actual-boomer parents who act like this
A lot of these people including Scott Adams have a pretty low emotional health themselves
Yeah, the generation before them was the "just pull yourself up by your bootstraps" generation
That resonates in a really bad way. It seems like the only ones who made it out okay were the hippies and moreso their children.
Nah. Young Gen X-er here, raised by old boomers. I'm just starting to understand how little the ridiculous clown humans masquerading as my parents actually raised me. They always say that boomers were raised by the TV, but it was their kids that were. From Sesame Street(gotta start that diversity brainwashing early! In a frick-ugly decaying urban setting!) to Saturday morning cartoons to sitcoms and the lonely reality of endless canned laughter... not to mention the steady diet of depravity served up on MTV. Is it any wonder a growing number of my generation are finding themselves absolutely fricking burnt out on pop culture and video/film?
I can't remember the last time I watched TV/streaming media regularly. Cartoons are unwatchable woke trash. Same with live action. I tried to get into Better Call Saul, but I can't be fricking bothered to give a shit. Demoralization is all but complete at this point.
I think we're heading for some kind of massive pop culture collapse, and I for one can't wait for it.
>From Sesame Street(gotta start that diversity brainwashing early! In a frick-ugly decaying urban setting!)
have you not watched any of the original episodes? a fugly decaying urban setting is a perfect description
good job searching the internet for that old-ass image macro though, it really makes you look like a legit oldgay, yo, *gang sign*
So this is just a massive turbo cope because he can’t reconcile with the idea that he failed his son?
He's too narcissistic to accept that he was at all at fault.
Yes, conservatives and a lot of liberals now are incapable of self-reflection. They cannot be wrong, it's the world that is wrong for not bowing to their obviously superior minds.
I wish I were joking, this is the gift the boomer generation has unleashed on the world. Selfish, uncaring buttholes thinking they are morally upstanding citizens.
Hell it's not even a political thing, I know plenty of apolitical people who are just the right amount of sociopathic that they can't self reflect
This is actually true, my mistake. I just see it a lot in political circles, it's so tiresome. The worst part is knowing that 99% of these kinds of people will never change. They will live their lives and die in complete ignorance of their faults.
The only person in my family who isn't like this is my grandmother. I didn't actually think people could be so mindless and continually destroy the lives if themselves and those around them. I though being an adult would mean something by now. But everyone hasn't regressed past the point I was at when I was 14 abd thought I knew everything because I found out about atheism.
Well medicine is very expensive in the USA, unlike in Europe.
>stepson
Wtf how does some like dobson even get married.
There is literally nothing redeemable about him.
Read the post again, anon. It's Scott Adam's stepson that got depression and committed suicide, not Dobson's. Dobson was still single when he exiled himself from the internet.
Not on Twitter, but he had a HUGE DA following by being one of the few "professional" artists on the site, and so he had a surprising amount of clout before people realized he was a total hypocrite and couldn't take criticism in the slightest
Oh thank god, I got scared for the implications someone like Dobson being able to get laid has for the human race.
For some reason my mind mixed Adam with Andrew.
>someone like Dobson being able to get laid
I mean, he did have a girlfriend until the Hannukah incident, so who's to say he didn't get laid during that period?
>he did have a girlfriend until the Hannukah incident
Literally how.
There is absolutely nothing good about Dobson.
He isn´t good looking, he isn´t charismatic, he isn´t smart, and I doubt he is rich.
So, like you.
Because she looked like fricking William Murderface. Even fatter and fricking uglier.
Not Dobson, Scott Adams. The dude who made Dilbert.
>This isn't the first time he's gone into a 'nerd store' and been laughed out of it.
He 100% is blowing these incidents out of proportion. The guy at the comic shop probably just said, "Sorry, we don't have the classics here." And Dobson took it as an insult. In the other one, he walks into a /tg/ store despite the sign saying it's closed, and interrupts people playing D&D to ask about GameCube games. They probably explained that it's not that kind of store, and informed him that they were closed, and Dobson ran out crying from embarrassment.
>He 100% is blowing these incidents out of proportion.
Same thing probably happened with the people alledgedly mocking his anime of choice (Iria -Zeriam the animation) at his anime club, the reason he hates anime and otakus btw
Oh yeah. It's a college anime club. They were probably making MST3K comments at everything they watched, but Dobson took it personally when they did it to his "artistic choice".
Looks like he went to a comic book shop. I went to one and asked if they had manga and they said no, no big deal. Just went to a Barnes and Noble store.
>In the other one, he walks into a /tg/ store despite the sign saying it's closed, and interrupts people playing D&D to ask about GameCube games.
Which comic is that?
Also
>everyone he doesn't like is fatter than him
>everyone he doesn't like is balder than him or has a stupid haircut
>everyone he doesn't like is nerdier than him
I like how that comic and this comic complement each other.
>look, I'm wearing a button saying you can talk to me, respect my button.
>what's that, a sign that says closed? I must enter!
I could maybe see wearing this for an hour or two, or if you're busy or something, but who wants to crowd around a bunch of other people and not even be open to talk to anyone?
Sometimes you just want to look at tiddy and buy stupid crap.
All he had to say
>Shit sorry guys my mistake, I couldn't tell if you were open or not. Enjoy your game.
No, you don't understand. THEY were rude to HIM because they were closed and didn't have his GameCube game and were playing D&D, which he doesn't like.
Just looked it up, his stepson died of a Fentanyl overdose.
Ah, well that makes a little more sense. I just hope he tried
Ever since he decided he's both antivax but doesn't want to admit antivaxxers were right about anything (ie, YOU WERE ACCIDENTALLY RIGHT), he's completely lost his mind and spiraled into barely coherent sanity.
How did he become antivax?
>What's this guy on about?
It was either let his son commit suicide or put him on a psychotropic wienertail.
>mediocre
You mean SHIT.
>Doraemon getting beat up
Wow Dobson really was an butthole
>Urusei Yatsura
Well he doesn’t have complete shit taste.
Yeah, respect for his taste in anime at least
His old inflation pseudonym was "CattyN." As in catty "Nabiki," a character from Ranma 1/2. His art is 100% inspired by Rumiko Takahashi, with a mix of fricking Garfield of all things.
A terrible fusion.
I never watched those old anime so it's weird when i see clips of them and can only think of dobson.
He took the name (and design) of Catty from the character in the anime Gall Force. Like it's not even subtle man.
She has the best hairstyle.
I'm sure Dobson also liked the part where she explodes
>Urusei Yatsura
>check plot synopsis
>it's a most generic "loser has hot girls chasing him for inexplicable reasons" harem plot
no wonder Dobson likes it
also why in the comic does he say "I haven't read any new manga in a while", then go to a shop and ask for something that ran from the 70's to the 80's?
I assumed that was the joke.
To be fair, it was literally the first one to do that.
It was basically the first to do that, and part of the joke from what I've seen is that the mc is clearly a shithead who doesn't deserve anyone. It was made by a woman.
>Didn't know Urusei
>I asume some generic...
>Harem
God, you are such a fricking pleb. Either that, or your are baiting hard and I falling for it.
>pleb for not watching an anime that ran before I was born, and AFAIK never even aired in my country in any way
you might have a point if it wasn't a fricking harem anime, one of the absolute worst genre's to exist, Tenchi Muyo is saved by it's sci-fi action plot, and Love Hina is a prime example of how the genre is complete SHIT unless you add something to distract from the romance
here's a question: why do YOU think it's so fricking good that it's basically a crime to not know about it? what about it is so precious that it needs to be remembered? the main character being a dumb c**t? the main girl wearing a leopard-skin bikini? the way she's obsessed with him for something """"impressive"""" he did once (by the way, I read the synopsis, he wins a contest against her by ripping her bikini top off to win a competition, how """impressive""", no wonder she fell for him after he cheated in a competition via sexual assault!)
>Bohoo sexual assault
Harems are shit but you are gay
At least he's not a 40 yo weeb
>leopard-skin
leopards don't have stripes you dumb frick.
You are wasting your time arguing with Cinemaphileutists, best to just leave them be.
It was the first to do that.
Ironically, the MC does NOT have a harem of hot chicks after his dick, but he DOES want exactly that. The only girl who does like him, he dislikes.
And thus, the source of most of the comedy. As you said, it's from the fricking 70's, so it's a joke that's been told better since then, but you can't get mad at something for being generic, when it is the template.
>it's a joke that's been told better since then
No, it's a joke that has been taken seriously since then because guys wanted to fap to an actual harem scenerio instead of a wannabe harem scenerio played for laughs.
>calling the originator of something generic
This. He was Deviantart popular which amounted to nothing outside of the website and even then he lost relevancy on DA before disappearing.
GokuBros?! What the FRICK is this
You weren't around for ToP shitposting, get over it newbie and stop dragging this shitty dead meme out
Dobson is so hated in every aspect he even has memes in Cinemaphile. He's the one example I can find of everyone on this godforsaken shithole agreeing on something.
Doesn't everyone also hate the wonderbread guy?
>everyone hates you because you're an attention prostitute
>but we let Blendergays have their own circlejerk generals because they make my peepee hard
Guess he should've done wonder bread porn
this guy lives and breathes capitalism like how the inner party lives and breathes totalitarianism in 1984. unsettling.
I don't get the hate.
He just has a weird fetish. And it's so out there he can never do anything about it in real life.
He's like the "I am six years old and I am gonna sit on the floor in the back of this car and talk" guy. Bizarre but essentially harmless.
>I don't get the hate.
Probably because you weren't there
His fetish is sinister and half witted at the same time. He’s aroused by this idea of the dumb b***h American domestic woman who’s a bimbo and buys mass produced American food. It’s like a cultural criticism but one he pathologically enjoys sexually, and his fixation on a few specific things like wonderbread tells me he’s not firing on all cylinders and probably just running with something obnoxious someone said when he was a kid
>his fixation on a few specific things like wonderbread tells me he’s not firing on all cylinders and probably just running with something obnoxious someone said when he was a kid.
IIRC the bully in his comics was always blonde because he got bulled by a blonde kid when he was young.
Wrong guy, my friend. Blonde Bully is Dobson, but that anon was talking about Murrlogic, aka wonder bread/deforestation guy
>And it's so out there he can never do anything about it in real life.
But the post above pointed out that he's a genuinely sexist, racist butthole towards real people. You'd just be fueling his narcissism.
The thing about wonderbread guy is he is also a massive attention prostitute and sorta of an butthole. Im talking attention prostitute levels to the point where he went to his own kf thread and shared info about himself.
Theres tons of fetishes far weirder than his out there but what got him the notoriety was the personality he had combined with the weird kink.
That's always been my problem. I've never had any issue with anyone's kinks, even the far out ones or the ones I could never 'get': I used to be friends with a girl into 'erotic cannibalism'. Every episode of Hannibal was like wall-to-wall masturbation fuel for her. Right now, I'm buddies with a guy into giantesses, and I mean four meters, minimum, the bigger the better. But both of them were well aware of how absurd they were and had a sense of humour about it. People who are so far up their own ass, they can recycle their own lunch, they can just frick off. I'm pretty sure your rampaging self-righteousness is another kink of yours and I'm not indulging that one without money up-front.
Wait I thought wonderbread guy was just a dude we laughed at for having a specific and weird fetish
Guess he attracted more hatred than amusement and mockery from those he was directly bothering for art of his weird shit fetish.
Why do tumblr trannies hate fetishes so much? What happened to accepting all sexuality?
It's not about hating fetishes, it's about how baffling murr's "fetish" is, considering none of the subject matters (i.e. consumerism, deforestation, industrialization) is baffling from an erotic perspective. How does one get turned on by that? At least with floor tiles the pattern is aesthetically pleasing...
*None of the subject matters makes sense from an erotic perspective
whoops
I'm still not entirely convinced he's not just a shitposter who thinks its funny to commission such a weirdly specific thing over and over.
I'm pretty sure he's legit got a screw lose and isn't trolling. Anyway, here's his account of getting rejected by Shad of all people.
I mean if he was just doing it for the lulz I'm pretty sure Shad would've been on that like Dobson on inflation porn.
considering he's probably spent well over 10 grand on these commissions, he must find it fricking hilarious
I have never heard of this guy before but he seems like a fricking legend.
Sometimes I wonder why feet get a lot of grief when stuff like this walks our streets.
Nobody would give a frick about Murrlogic if he didn't have the streecred of being turned down by Shadman.
And, so far I've only seen hearsay of the event. Some of it by murrlogic himself. Shadman drew porn of his own overweight mother on Mother's day. He drew porn of the Flamethrower guy from TF2 snuggling up to a pile of burnt bodies. I just cannot believe someone who's drawn THAT would even register murrlogic's bullshit as even particularly bizarre. Because he's drawn worse.
I think his own mother and the Pyro had some kind of comedic merit, but limp dick dry orgasm, on top of Murrlogic’s already weird industrial fetish shit, was just too much. It’d would kind of be like asking a foot fetish artist for a simultaneous armpit/hair job while clowns throw pies in the background, or something.
Shadman didn't draw Chris Chan eating out his own mother, despite the fact in 2012 he drew Ed Gould being raped by death like the day of his announcement.
I'm 99% sure it's less shad thinking it's too "far" and moreso that he's really pussed up over time in recent years. Same reason why the last year or so before he got arrested, most of his tweets were just him giving shitty life advice instead of porn.
>he's really pussed up over time in recent years
You get tired of being edgy eventually. I don't say 'Black person' nearly as often as I did in college.
I hate him the same way that I hate Loss. Just when all is right with the universe, there he is.
Having a strange fetish on its own isn't enough. There are much weirder fetishes out there. Fetishes that require flowcharts to get someone off. Car fricking, toe vore, weightlessness, freezing, vacuums, whatever the frick. The problem is when there's drama or theatrics around the fetish that turn the fetish itself into the punching bag. Dobson is a b***h inflating crackers. In another timeline where Dobson had some self awareness he would still be drawing and posting under a more reasonable pseudonym in a sea of other weirder fetishists.
That homosexual would flood threads constantly not too long ago
>Shitku jobbing
Based.
Autism is some alpha shit ngl, dude just walks in and tells everyone off before leaving.
fun fact, the reason he hates anime is because he tried showing people his favorite anime and they hated it, and he just never recovered from that
Wasn't he also bullied by literal children online.
Yes.
That shit was hilarious.
Credit when credit is due, he used the word "literal" appropriately.
Jesus Christ this can't be real right?
This dude really admitted that a bunch a children bullied him on miiverse
KWAB
That and someone took over his responsibilities for the anime club. Because Dobson stopped showing anime and started hooking up his gamecube to the projector and playing harvest moon
Posting this on Cinemaphile seems like an easy way to get banned
You have no clue how bad dragon ball discussion is on Cinemaphile. You're better off just posting that and saying "Dobson-sama, I kneel"
By Zamasu everyone realized DB would never recover and embraced the shitposts, I don't blame them.
What was wrong with the Zamasu arc?
I can't speak on Cinemaphile's behalf, but for me, at least, the "evil Goku plot" was dumb, specially when they not only combined it with time travel, but also when the real reason for that "Goku" to be evil was revealed.
In just an hour "Tree of Might" was able to tell a more entertaining "Evil Goku" story with a villain that's actually enjoyable.
Well, conceptually it was dumb, but that comes with adapting fanfiction. The animation was horrendous on average. The plot was very poorly paced, always coming to awkward halts so Toei could drag it out and pull some stupid moments, like every time Trunks was given an asspull only to get his shit pushed in, the back and forth on time travel or the Zamasu reveal stalling. The final act however takes the cake, from the Mafuba fake out with Goku forgetting the macguffin and retconing Potara to keep Vegetto from finishing it to the out of thin air spirit bomb on the sword of friendship crap and Trunks "winning" by having his entire reality deleted by a toddler on Goku's behalf and then being told by the deities he should just hijack another timeline and live with copies of himself and his girlfriend. It's a shame it's so bad because both granny Goku and Zamasu's VA were stellar.
>outclassed by the villain
>just summon God to one shot him
That was utterly moronic even by Dragon Ball standards. I know that Toriyama just resurrected the IP because he needed the money, but holy frick.
esto es el fin
>dragon ball discussion is on Cinemaphile.
They allow DB discussion on Cinemaphile? Color me surprised... I always assumed it was an anime too tainted by the West for they to allow it.
Your thinking of Cinemaphile is outdated. That might've been true 10 years ago, but anymore Cinemaphile has 24/7 shounen generals since mods no longer give much of a shit. They still draw a few lines regarding off topic content, i.e. pepes and wojacks will get you banned instantly, but any semblance of gatekeeping anime discussion, no matter how shitty, is gone.
>discussion
I'm half convinced those Cinemaphile generals are mostly just bots interacting with each other. It's just the same shit day in and day out. Notice how they don't actually respond in any meaningful way they just spout pre canned lines in response to certain stimuli
It is. A while back there was a /qst/ thread derailed by a dbs bot
>I'm half convinced those Cinemaphile generals are mostly just bots
Nah, it's just memes. Gallons and gallons of memes. It is unbearable but it is also strangely entertaining. I will never stop hating it and I will never stop snickering at it under my breath.
You sound like you haven't been on Cinemaphile for a long while, shounenshit took over most of the board.
What happens in /dbs/ isn't discussion, it's pure meme magic
It can't be that bad
>looks
Holy shit it made last days /hsg/ look sane
What the, isnt Urusei Yatsura popular too?
This is the same man who blamed his school for teaching him wrong when his other classmates moved on to work at Pixar pre cars era. Dude is a hack who can't grow and challenge himself so he'll forever live in the salt mine that is his mind.
inflation fetish bear will never stop being funny to me
yes, he made a tweet saying it was in bad taste and that "don't say that I never apologize.". somehow he managed to sound even more butthole than normal
Don't forget "Some people found that offensive. Sorry you feel that way."
I'm sick of dobson threads. There needs to be a new Cinemaphile lolcow to talk about.
Only recent one I can think of is Scott Adams but he's probably a smidge too high-profile
What actually happened to Adams? He was always a bit of a weirdo but he's turned into a full-clown mental case in the last few years.
If he's not bullshitting about his kid killing himself, that's probably a big factor
Dude is a full blown alcoholic.
Also there is the ongoing question of whether Adams divorced his (half his age) wife before or after her cancer diagnosis.
https://www.thefocus.news/celebrity/kristina-basham/
Dude just went off the deep end in the last few years.
>nooooo how did my child that i raised become anti-social ;_;
I think you should kill your son dilbert
What a fricking psychopath.
the only context i can think of killing your own son was that one post on adv where some guys son was torturing and killing penguins or some shit.
did adams son mass shoot people or smth?
>did adams son mass shoot people or smth?
no, refer to
how is he not suspended for that? what the frick, i see artists getting suspended for more moronic reasons than this shit bag over here.
He's right you know.
Christ almighty this is what you talk about with your therapist or your closest friends, not the entire internet.
twitter is everyone's psychologist
What is the subject at hand? What did his stepson do? Is he talking about a school shooting, or is he talking about something like drug use? And I hate to say it Scott but isn’t a third option prison?
Apparently his stepson was severly depressed, but Adams apparently doesn't believe in mental health, so instead of trying to get him help, he just let him blow his own brains out and took a "That's just what happens to broken people; they can't be helped" stance.
Ah so obviously he’s so angry and in such denial because otherwise would be to admit he’s a man slaughterer of his own child by neglect
Okay I can see him survive that if you see this in reaction to a recent death of son he loved.
Still majorly fricked up but I would say grief is the cause
This is what happens when you watch Cboyardee Dilbert videos 24/7
>all these morons taking these tweets at face value
They read this and thought "oh he means literally take your son's life with your own hands"
I didn't take it at face value and it's still pretty fricked because the gist is "Let your family suffer in silence in hopes that their eventual self-destruction is as contained as possible and admitting your own hand in their suffering"
He literally does.
Scott's not going to frick you for white knighting him.
Jesus fricking Christ Scott, lay off the fricking whiskey.
>This person tweeted this
>Calling anybody else mentally ill
I'm not trying to be edgy but I would consider offing myself if this was my stepdad as well. What a c**t
This sounds like someone trying to convince themselves that there was nothing they could have done to prevent a personal tragedy.
Maybe there was, maybe there wasn't, but why the hell would you post this on Twitter, and if you do, why would you make yourself sound like a emotionless sociopath ?
Eliminate boomers.
jesus christ, what a fricking c**t
Lets give the loudhouse gay that wants to be the next cwc his dream job by having him be our new lolcow
You mean UltraHand? Would be great considering he’s a 40 year old making fat art of loud house and sonic kids
No, there's someone who "wants to be Chris-chan" that posts here. Yours is way more interesting.
I’ve only seen that guy in one thread. Has he posted in more?
Possible he may have posted in the DA cringe thread when he was mentioned.
I think it's because Dobson is easier to understand like a Saturday morning cartoon while Chris is like trying to understand the entirety of the marvel universe. Dobbo is more relatable in that he makes mistakes anyone could make and we can learn from. While you can learn some things from Chris's story a lot of it is too bizarre to really relate to for most people. Plus there is a sliver of hope for Dobson, people might understandably disagree with me on this but I don't think his art is that bad and if he could just stop being a stubborn opinionated idiot he could find some success with his art, and while it's funny to watch him frick up I think people would be pretty pleased to see him turn things around and succeed. Chris on the other hand is in jail because he fricked his mom, granted he was already too fricked to make a turnaround before that but there is no hope for a good ending to that story. The "best" ending for Chris is death, the more probable and more depressing ending is spending his remaining years in a mental institution writing letters to weens.
Its safe to assume any post with the Loudhouse girl and a newborn baby is him as I doubt anyone else gives enough of a frick about him to post it.
which one was it? The oversized soccer player, the goth gamer boi, the big chungus blonde, or the e-girl?
the fat one, also am i mistaken or did other fat fetish artists cuddle his feelings on twitter? feel like i read something about that
dude gets compliments on his stuff but only focuses on the negatives. if you've been coming to Cinemaphile for 17 years and haven't learned how to ignore trolls then what's the point?
>he deleted everything
kek
first guy wasn't even complaining, either, just pointing out the obvious
I remember the thread. It was, overall, a fun thread. I even remember telling UltraHand I was looking forward to whatever he was going to draw with the characters, specially Sandy.
And yes, there were trolls and shit, but nothing you would not expect from Cinemaphile, with art and characters like those.
But all it took to break him was a single twitter post? Damn... the only thing I regret is there not being more Sandy in the future.
>But all it took to break him was a single twitter post?
He already started being triggered in the actual thread itself. And just like you did, there were a lot of positive replies, many which I personally considered too positive even.
>He already started being triggered in the actual thread itself.
Yeah, I should have said: "but the straw that broke the camel's back was a twitter post?"
He types like a gay and his shit's all moronic.
It's like he tries to type like how Stamper talks
I'd be pretty mad too if someone stole the g key from my keyboard
>17 years on Cinemaphile
Notice how you’re the first one to think that’s strange.
I'm guessing architect-chads used Goldie to derail the threat into fatposting
Goldie would fit right into his fat fetish artwork, I bet no one that's consumed his work wouldn't bat an eye if he did. He can't keep it out in his pants. The way he drew that muffin top, the belly button, and her overall shape reeks of obvious fatty wank.
There was an entire thread on Cinemaphile of people trying to point this out to him, but he never let himself listen. Also, he went on to pretend it was all "haters" or something, when there was a lot of people offering fair criticism.
I was in that thread too, bro. It was so fricking funny that he came up with this pitch for a Loud House knockoff and expected no one to pick up on the blatant fatty wank character with the big belly. It's difficult for me to tell whether Ultrahand is just an insecure guy with an overinflated ego if he's just crazy.
>just an insecure guy with an overinflated ego or if he's just crazy.
Theres always the chance its both
the whole thing gives me weird vibes
Literally every character other than Goldie is fine. Really that design could be saved too if you make her only half as fat and remove the rolls
Any character refs on Sandy? I might consider commissioning r34 of her if there’s enough material.
The one shilling his Luna movie?
we should just stop obsessing over morons online altogether
Too bad Randy Stairs offed himself
I forgot about this one. FFS, Dobson really is moronic.
Does anyone know if Dobson later commented on this or the Powergirl incident?
He did later comment on the power girl incident, claiming that he wasn’t in the picture as he made the entire incident up. Ignoring how that made him look like even more of a homosexual, but, “I was never there because it never happened” was his official stance on the matter.
>send_request.jpg
I miss Dobson
Nah
>this one piece of fanart is better than anything in his entire output
ouch
Seriously.
What the hell was this dude thinking? Between the time it took to click on the tweet, find the image, and press "reply" did it not run through his head that it was a terrible idea?
Autism, autism will bypass any safe guards that prevent this from happening
Sometimes it's autism, more often than not, it's just being a plain ol' piece of shit, and I'm always more inclined to bet on that than anything.
Dobson never thought anything he ever did was wrong. It was always everyone else being a bully.
I’ve always thought that the most generous interpretation was that he straight up didn’t know that Zelda Williams was Roger Williams’s daughter, that he only knew about her in relation to gamergate and thought that people would actually back him for dunking on some gamergate chick that was on the “wrong side”, that he didn’t realize it was the anniversary of Roger Williams’s death, and that he thought the tweet was just Zelda being overly dramatic about a vague problem that he figured wasn’t a big deal, and so he assumed he was telling a chick with a mild anxiety disorder to get over having a bad day because she had to talk to somebody in the grocery store or some stupid shit.
But even if he was a big enough dumbass to get every one of those things so badly wrong, what I can’t really get past is the fact that he probably had hundreds of people instantly step in to tell him what was really going on and exactly why he had been an butthole to Zelda. And then he still couldn’t properly take accountability and apologize because he steadfastly refuses to ever admitting to being wrong about anything. His non apology is even worse than the initial tweet , I think.
>Roger
I'M TAKING THE STICK BACK, ELMO!
I'm always a bit cynical of the idea that he didn't know who she was, since Zelda Williams was considered a bit of a goddess to loser nerds back in the early '10s.
I think he had some sorta idea of who she was, but even just forgetting enough fir him to not realize that she was talking about her father’s death makes him seem much less douchey.
God dammit. I meant Robin. Frick I hate getting those names mixed up.
What was his response?
See
my problem with this, so what? Even if he didn't know any of that, as you said he didn't know then what her problem was, why she claimed to be sad/depressed, so how could ANY person that claims to be decent(which he does) say something like "Calm your breasts", especially someone who also claims to be woke.
None of it makes sense
Interpreting it in the best possible way for him makes it seem like he could have been just kind of a hypocritical dick instead of downright cruel and extremely shitty. I don’t think there’s any interpretation where he comes off as a saint, but if you give him a big amount of the benefit of the doubt, he’s still not a good guy, he’s just not as bad of a person. Until, of course, the “apology.”
I’m certain that he at the very least intended to come off as though he were ribbing Zelda. In that best possible scenario, I think he thought his response would be taken favorably from his followers because he figures they don’t like Zelda, the way he doesn’t, and to him it’s okay for him to be mean to people he doesn’t like, because they “deserve” it. That’s why he thought killing Trump would be totally fine. He thinks it’s not murder just as long as it’s a bad person being killed.
Why doesn’t he like Zelda? Has she even really done anything?
She ruined the last season of korra
she posts on Cinemaphile
Zelda was pro-gamergate?
Probably in the same way a lot of women were.
They weren't informed about anything that happened but saw a man v woman dichotomy and chose to side with the woman.
That would make her anti-gamergate.
It would make sense, since the reason GG started was because of Zoe Quinn releasing her """Game""" about depression on the same day her dad commits suicide and instead of keeping her mouth shut Quinn still announced it was coming out. Not that anyone remembers or wants this fact to come out.
Yeah haha which is funny because assuming a woman is being hysterical over something unimportant, when they’re actually feeling grief at the first anniversary of their fathers death? That’s a misogyny
To give him the benefit of the doubt, he may have been living under a rock and not known what she was talking about. Because he'd have to be a complete psycho to post that if he did know. Still a douchey thing to post in any context, but whatever.
Either:
a) he didn't know she was Williams' daughter and just got attracted by the name "Zelda"
b) he tried to be cool and edgy to get his KiwiFarms stalkers to like him more
it might very well have been both of those at once.
I will be forever disappointed that America Chavez never said "Holy Menustration!" in Dr. Strange: MoM and Lady Thor never told Gorr to calm his breasts.
Gee its almost like Disney isn't that fricking shit to use literal cringe dialigue
At this point it'd be good for meme material like LetoJoker literally saying "We live in a society"
>"We live in a society"
I legitimately have no idea what this means, and thought it was a line to parody people who think they're saying more about society than they are.
>That scene
Someone wrote that. Ben Affleck and Jared Leto acted it out instead of briefly looking at each other and then beating Snyder into a bloody pulp together
It was, as with Leto referencing Morbin’ with a fake script called “Morbius 2:It’s Morbin’ Time”, he didn’t really get the joke, and probably assumed it was from a comic he couldn’t be bothered to look up.
Old TV show reference.
It's just making fun of the set phrase people use before they level a critique at the status quo: "we live in a society where ____". Thus it was attributed to the Heath Ledger Joker, who has lots of similar statements in that movie. 'We live in a society' is an absurd joke because the following critique is thus excluded, leaving it a self-evident and innocuous statement delivered as though it were some mind-blowing revelation.
>When the meme has lost the origin
The real origin of "society" and Joker" comes from misquotting The Dark Knight. Lines like
> It's a funny world we live in
and
>If tomorrow I tell the press that, like,a gangbanger will get shot or a truckload of soldiers will be blowing up nobody panics.Because it's all part of the plan.But when I say that one little old mayor will die...well, then, everyone loses their minds. Introduce a little anarchy...upset the established order and everything becomes chaos.
got warped into something like
>We live in a society where a truckload of soldiers will be blowing up nobody panics. But when I say that one little old mayor will die...well, then, everyone loses their minds.
Then eventually substituting the lines to
>We live in a society where _______, but if______
>meme lost its origin
>no its not someone saying the direct line from an old tv show
>its something that literally doesn't exist
No it was definitely the Ledger Joker thing. It was meant to sound like something Joker would say in TDK
>sound like
Reaching too far. Not an actual connection.
>sound like
So it didn't exist and you are choosing it over literally the same line from something way older.
Not true.
Thus is backwards reasoning.
back in like 2015/2016 Ironybros would make fun of those "Nice Guys" who identified with the joker because they were oppressed because they were gamers or something by making memes like pic related; the phrase "we live in a society" was spread around and used frequently enough until the joke became where you'd say it over something stupidly trivial or completely absurd https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zIjhngRPEvE
I mean they're both cartoonists who are controversial figures due to their views, i would've said Ben Garrison instead but i think he actually got banned during the 2020 election stuff
Pajeet spotted
I still think they're making new comics awful on purpose so the MCU looks good in comparison
Why did he hate Robin Williams again? I remember he gave some shitty justification for it
I am Andrew Dobson, and I'm here to ask you a question.
Is a man not entitled to make comics however he wants?
'No!' says the artist, 'You're ignoring fundamental principles.'
'No!' says the reader, 'Your writing is full of strawmen.'
'No!' says Anonymous, 'Die in a fricking fire.'
I rejected those answers; instead, I chose something different. I chose the impossible. I chose...
Denial, the city where the artist would not fear critique, where the writer would not be bound by petty logic or grammar, where the ego would not be bruised by reality! And by not listening to criticism, Denial can become your city as well.
>>'No!' says Anonymous, 'Die in a fricking fire.'
lol
I stayed there for awhile, bro, but Loomis was a better town in the end.
Nah he apologized
Nice photoshop, Dobbie dob
That's not an apology
>"Some people didn't like that"
This clearly turns it into a "I'm jsut trying to save my skin" "apology," because he's making himself out to be a victim.
>Didn't explain why it was bad and inappropriate, possibly still unaware
>Mentioning others, who had no involvement
>Explanation of what happened is bigger than the actual, two-worded apology
Are people with self-awareness a rarity?
lol what the frick is wrong with this guy. Hate to say it but that kind of shit attitude would catch you an ass whipping around where I live. Literally just deleting the tweet and never mentioning it again would have been vastly better than this condescending shit.
>you dont like that I was a c**t to you? seems like a you problem!!!!
typical moron leftoid apology
Do we really need daily threads about a dude that was exhiled from the internet almost 4 years ago? Stop chasing ghosts.
Yes, solely because that exile was self-imposed.
Everyone should just stop talking about lolcows who exited themselves from the internet, because that's what they're supposed to do. Otherwise the discussion starts spinning wheels, like in Dobson's case
I have a theory that someone who's obsessed with failures keeps posting these Dobson threads. Instead of finding someone new they latched onto him because they invested too much time learning all the details of all the awkward shit he did. There's no good reason why Dobson pops up as frequently as he does here other than being some autist's obsession.
Imagine being so pathetic that you need to keep the ghost of Dobson around to feel good.
this happens constantly. people like to prod morons even when they're long dead just to feel better about themselves.
Every time I remember some cringe shit I did in the past, I feel good knowing that at least I'm not Andrew Dobson
How does Dobson manage to keep getting consistent threads here when Chris Chan:
>Disappeared from the public eye way after Dobson
>Disappeared in a way more spectacular way compared to Dobson, who basically went afk out of nowhere
>Has easily 10x the amount of content to discuss, along with it being way more interesting
And gets like a fraction of the attention that Inflate-a-Bear does here
Because these threads were always based on a sort of "empathetic cringe" that required seeing how the lolcow arrived at their worldview and on some level seeing and reflecting on how you yourself avoided those pitfalls.
Dobson is just a sad, sad little man who never got very good at all at his craft and was haunted by the embarassing things he made in the past and never could seem to figure out what to say.
Chris Chan is signing his name as Jesus now and being reverse-groomed by 16 year olds on Discord. He was interesting when he was a deep-on-the-spectrum fella with a comic inability to discern fantasy from reality when it came to interpersonal relationships and signals. Now it's just baffling, and baffling is not funny.
>Now it's just baffling, and baffling is not funny.
He was always baffling, when people first found out about the guy he was hanging out in public libraries hanging up boyfriend application posters (didnt he also have the medallion at this point i forgot); he was well beyond the normal autist standards even without the help of fellow online degenerates. The dude who has a docu-series on youtube whose length rivals most live-action tv shows has gotta bring more entertaining discussion than posting the same tweets/comics over and over and over
beats me, they've let Stonetoss amass >200k followers without even one suspension/strike/whatever system birdapp uses, and you know whoever moderates that hellsite are dying to be the one to bring the hammer down. I think that they let these kind of accounts proliferate because the controversy they generate increases site traffic, its the only reasonable explanation i can think of
>Stonetoss outta nowhere
housing crisis solved
Chris Chan is just kinda overplayed. Like, he's a quality lolcow, but you get sick of him after hearing about him non-stop for so long--especially after the whole Oedipus incident.
Chris Chan has always been a time bomb, the only thing different than was expected was that it was just set off a little earlier than everyone thought
Dobson, on the other hand, was a lolcow in his prime, and he suddenly dropped off the face of the earth, which can be very interesting for people who like mysteries and don't mind digging into peoples' personal lives
Chris is so far detached from reality that it's hard to blame him for most of his nonsense. Dobson is all hubris. You can't even really feel bad for the guy because he's a dick.
>Inflate-a-Bear
There it is. It's fun to mock a sanctimonious "ally" that portraits himself as a fedora-wearing carebear and pumps his meat to woman exploding despite claiming to be a feminist. Chris, on the other hand, is turning into Shoko Asahara by the day.
eh, your political views dont have anything to do with what you fap to. i have a pregnancy fetish, doesnt mean i oppose abortion rights.
although dobby does not have political views as such, just whatever gets him the most twitter airplay
that one full metal alchemist episode maybe?
Mods are much faster at deleting Chris threads than Dobson threads.
Chris Chan threads are cracked down on HARD
Honestly, I'm too frightened to discuss that freak anymore. Chris is a walking nightmare and if I never see a thread about him again it'll be a thousand years too soon.
dobson is a pathetic cis male, while chris chan is a brave transgender woman who found herself and then did a kind of bad thing, so he needs to be swept under the rug
It's not funny anymore after the rape. His story is now just dark and bizarre in the worst way, it's not something that's fun to mock anymore
What happaned with Dobson? No new comics
First, of his 14 Patreon subscribers, one leaked his content, including the Muslim vampire comic, to KiwiFarms. To prevent this, he set his minimum pledge level at a ridiculous amount, somewhere in the thousands. Then he tried to frame the tumblr blog that documents his moronation as his “life-long abuser”, blaming them for following and harassing him across the web for a decade. Literally no one believed him, so he quit. Also, around this time his brother deleted his Facebook, which is why you have anons who make claims like “Dobson cost his brother a job. Dobson’s parents found out about his shit”, but there isn’t any proof of that.
I just guess everyone is interested in why he suddenly vanished is because we expected some long ass essay from Dobson about how he was a victim, how he's sad, blah blah blah and make some declaration that he's better than everyone for leaving the internet, only for him to come right back in just a few weeks.
This could be good for him to get actually get away from the internet for awhile but I feel like he's lurking lots of sites and waiting for the eventual "They'll miss me so much when I'm gone!"
I don't think Dobson has the self control necessary to lurk
>the eventual "They'll miss me so much when I'm gone!"
That may aswell be what all these dobson threads have been, tho its not missing him per say and more missing being able to take the piss out of him.
Suicide after a Kiwifarms user drove to his parents' house and showed them his inflation art.
>Sometimes I fight it with laughter, other times with information. Today, strangely, I'm at a loss.
Never fails to make me cringe
Ok, Dobson.
I think what's most cringe is he definitely used that pic of Jane Foster because he wanted to show how much he likes Whor and to get people talking about how cool it is that her existence was totally making dudebros and misogynists mad and undoubtedly thought he'd get people to bring this up and praise him for it in the comments
I wish it wasn’t true that Andrew Dobson killed himself shortly before the pandemic started.
Awww yeah, finally an excuse to post some rare Dobsons.
Probably I mean there are fetish artist out there with arguably way worse art styles you never hear about because they're just happy catering to their niche market. Or at least if they do decide to have a public facing persona they're pretty open about their porn.
This is too cool for Dobson. Kind of makes me want to see a series about some grizzled, jerk artist bear guy. Like, not to mock Dobson, but just as a character.
b... based?
i wonder if dobson woyld've been better if he remained as being Catty-N. no exposing personal info, opening his market to furry inflation porn as well and just remain distance from interacting with anyone
Honestly? No.
I've always theorized that one of the reasons he has such a hate boner for anime is because he got supplanted by the way of early 00's anime inspired hyper fetish artists that quickly outpaced him in terms of skill, productivity, and thus popularity.
I guarantee that it was because he was called an entry level poser who only liked dated shit. He was probably mouthing off about how 80s wapanese tiddy toons were better and hadn't watched anything new or any seinen OVAs from the 80s and 90s. I can't see him appreciating anything by Kon or the old adult swim lineup.
This is really nice art.
>games won: 7
I don't know why this cracked me up.
I'm surprised no one has posted the infamous Power Girl comic and the many follow-ups.
I would do it myself, had ever saved the images.
I've got you.
The last of my rare Dobson's.
Yes, but no. Dobson was never successful, or popular for that matter, but god did he ever know how to wine on twitter. I think a lot of the initial hate came from his comics being pretty sub-par and having some pretty god awful opinions. Which people made fun of him for. His reaction to getting made fun of though was to constantly cry and whine, which in turn attracted even more trolls. Which then basically became a death spiral of self pity, whining on twitter, and attracting more trolls.
Really Dobson is a great case study in how not to present yourself on the internet.
>considers himself the convention police
>doesn't want to socialize with anyone at conventions
Did he do something wrong?
I hate famous people who fish for sympathy on Twitter
Boo hoo I'm successful and set for life it's soo hard
Imagine you’re depressed and your dad doesn’t believe in therapy and you have a nice day, and your dad is still so fricking up his own solipsistic ass that he cares more about being respected for not believing in therapy than he cares that you fricking died
>your dad
not even. imagine the shitty homosexual who replaces your father comes in and says
>"WELP, NOTHIN TO BE DONE"
Wasn't even his child. moron shouldn't even get to talk about it.
Brutal.
You know what, I overcomplicated things. Wonderbread guy is evil because he wants to hatefrick a political cartoon. He’s a fricked up misanthrope
>genuinely enjoy a good sandwich
>Friend has a habit of asking what I've eaten for ideas for his own food because he forgets to eat
>for about 3 months straight I have various deli meat n cheese sandwiches or PB&J for lunch
>Comes out and asks me if i'm Murrlogic
>Have to google who the frick that is
>20 minutes later finally tell him no I am not and will keep my sandwiches to myself from now on because jesus god damn christ my man
There's been a lot of times in my life where I thought I was hurt but none of them add up to the idea of being mistaken for the fricking wonderbread fetishist.
>he repeatedly asks YOU what you're eating
>"dude, like, you're always on about sandwiches!! r u murrlogic???"
Christ, that's obnoxious, even hearing it as an uninvolved party.
Did Dobson die of the coof?
Your guess is as good as mine, he fricked off the internet long before Covid even left China
You could say it blew on his face
Dobson was already hated garbage before that. Anyone who liked that sad piece of shit at that point probably would be willing to ignore worse.
his silence has done more good for his image than every actual contribution of his collectively did. man is a natural frick up
dobson's image?
Based Dobson. Frick Zelda Williams and her unfunny dead father
If I remember right the wonderbread guy comissioned Korra starving while working on a chinese sweaty shop.
By the way, /ic/ has wonderful lolcows
No. Not like it was in any good place before hand.
Keep in mind too taht when he apoligized about it later he doesn't even understand WHY it was a bad time to do that. He just assumes it was a bad quip and people blew it out of proportion. The guy gives actual morons a run for their self awareness money.
God I miss Miiverse :'(
>Those miis faces below
My fricking sides
Miiverse had such a fantastic layout. I love that the reactions were literal faces of those reacting.
These screenshots will never get old.
Imagine being so fat you look at computers and see food
This is less a problem with Dobson, but a problem with people in general, but I hate argument by analogy. It demonstrates a lack of understanding of any real comparison and the analogy can be almost always be extended until it doesn't make sense.
Thought I was on Cinemaphile for a second.
Analogies are like using maps for places you cannot travel to on your own
>I hate argument by analogy.
Disliking argument from analogy is indicative of low IQ. People who dislike analogy and hypotheticals tend to be unintelligent and unusually inflexible in their thinking.
I'd argue the issue is most arguments by analogy are fricking shit because the arguer. Frequently it's just simplistic and reductive and when scrutinized doesn't hold up.
Dobson's comic isn't about making a real argument or defense but to use loaded connotations to try and influence you.
Obviously it's fine to dislike a shitty analogy, you can even say the majority of analogies are bad and that's probably true, but disliking them on principle speaks to a kind of cognitive inflexibility.
Analogies are metaphors for sycophants.
who knows maybe he's dead. would be pretty nice.
>clipboard and paper
what a psychopath. get a fricking notebook/sketchbook, you goober.
Dobson thinks he's unique and special for doing things wrong. See his art style, using the paint bucket for all his coloring, insisting his Mac is great whole streaming Skyrim at 10 fps, etc.
When I was in an art class, the instructor actually told me that a clipboard and paper sheets was a better way to go about it because you could compile all your good drawings into one "book" at any photocopy shop that offers book binding service.
It's shit paper and so far from being archival I'd recommend newsprint over it. You want something with a little tooth and texture for pencil sketching and it's absolute dogshit for inks. But I'm a watercolorgay and we're autistic about paper.
Also, note that he's drawing "Popeye-arms Princess Toadstool", an off-model version of the Princess from the Mario DIC cartoon that never actually existed except in his head.
When compared to Chris-chan, is he worse?
Well, Dobson didn't frick his mom, nor does he spout nonsense about being the second coming of Jesus and dimensional merges, so I'd say he's better as a person mentally, but worse as a lolcow
You heard the bear!
I totally would a Chochi's fem-Dobson.
>your father takes his own life because he has a rare form of early onset dementia that was already bad but would only get worse with time
>post a tweet about how you're feeling
>some literally who neckbeard with a furry pfp responds to you with an edited thor comic that says "calm thine breasts"
if I were Zelda there would be no survivors
That was the last straw honestly, he was always just an empty douche but there was where you saw that he was just an idiot on top of it. No one here has any claim on being tactful, but even the hardest of autists know to just stay quite about shit like that when they’re typing under their own name
There's also the case where Rob wasn't even killing himself in a lucid state as a sort of euthanasia and he was in an epusode of extreme fear. He likely went out in the worst way possible and this was a guy that made us all smile and laugh. He didn't fricking deserve it.
I do wonder what was going through his mind when he tweeted this at her. Like it was common knowledge what was going on with her at this point. Her dad just killed himself and she was venting, but this literal who autist decided to shit on her. Did he have some kind of beef with the Williams family or something? It's just bafflingly.
I think he's just genuinely on the spectrum so he didn't understand it wasn't appropriate
the AI knocked that one right out of the park, damn
fricking perfect
>or security
Cybersecurity, I assume. No way someone hired N. Flation as a guard.
I'm not sure what the context is or the proof, but we do know of two physical jobs he had but didn't like, one being at an airport, handling luggage, and one being a UPS delivery man, where he quit literally half a day in because he didn't get a UPS truck and he didn't want to walk everywhere. Considering those two jobs, it's entirely likely it was actual physical security. Probably full on Paul Blart Mall Cop
11/10
Of all the reasons to start hating anime, getting your favorites MST3K'd has to be one of the lamest
At a college anime club, no less. That's one of the most laid back settings there is.
>the final blow came when Detective Boy Conan was introduced and remade as "Case Closed"
2003. That's when Dobbles wrote off anime forever as just a bunch of trash new shows about ogling schoolgirl panties, unlike the good old days.
Oh yeah, even though he's not entirely wrong, he's just "Old man shouts at cloud" status with it, especially considering Urusei Yatsura and Ranma 1/2 is just as reliant on fanservice
>I made the mistake of showing something I shouldn't have which resulted in a girl, who had child-abuse issues, reliving a particularly nasty flashback which almost got the club disbanded by the College Board.
what the frick did he show
"Inflatable Uncle Saga:Amazing Adventures of Balloon-Sama!"
>college
>girl
>abuse
>flashback
It could have been anything. Sometimes they just throw a tantrum for attention.
rape scene?
Based PORNO Club mogging Dobson's shitty anime "club"
>SIGH!
there's a very specific type of person that writes that and they are all fat, pathetic, passive-aggressive, mean-spirited morons
God, every single thing he wrote here sounds full of himself, overly sensitive, and needlessly buttholeish.
And that's why everyone hates him. Not because he's inherently bad at art, his college works are surprisingly competent, but because he's overly sensitive and makes himself look like the victim
It all clicked now to me. The underlying reason for his seethe.
>felt Nintendo betrayed him in 1996 ~ 1998
>gave up on anime in 2003
This was in high school/college and the things he liked became mainstream and he wasn't the special little boy any more. His world changed and he resented that more than anything.
i think its mostly because he wants to be a hipster, it's not like he understood those things to begin with, he fricking hates mary-oh, zelda, and metroid outside of the piddly shit he peddles.
Maybe, but I noticed in his anime rant
>My once favorite shows were now popular and horribly dubbed and aired out of order on various TV stations.
Remember, his inflation pen-name is a character from Gall Force, which he might have had on subtitled VHS as early as 1992.
And then, when he's in high school? As anime starts entering the mainstream with Pokemon and DBZ? In that magic year of 1996?
>sub purist when people wanted easy access dubs
>nintendo fanboy when Sony was winning the market hand over fist
>fanboy from the NES era when games had long since moved to newer things
What he thought made him unique no longer mattered. Look at how he derisively says
>All my friends were just geeks who loved a show for no good reason except for the fact that it was Anime.
It stinks of an angry teen who thought he might be the shepherd to the masses, to get people on what HE wanted more than anything.
>What he thought made him unique no longer mattered.
Honestly, that sounds accurate. I don't have it, but I remember a comic where he's growing up, and everyone sounds super supportive of his art, up until adulthood when he gets slammed on the internet. It just sounds like he was coddled throughout his youth and was told "You're so special and talented!". Once he got to college and found out he wasn't so special after all, combined with him not being able to take criticism because of said pandering, he just dug into his comfort zone and lashed out at anyone who didn't pander to him and stagnated/regressed as an artist
Just spent a good few minutes trying to figure out what he meant by "out College" only realize he meant "our College". Also is he saying his anime night inspired the creation of a college porn club?
I think Dobson's core issue is that he just doesn't understand just how generic he and his takes are. Aside from the lulcow factor, he's an intensely uninteresting person with a dull art style and a totally mediocre writer's voice and ability. Nothing about he or his work, or his life, is compelling in the slightest. And yet he feels the need to portray himself as some tragic voice of reason and virtue.
"So You're a Cartoonist" is like some Hegelian(I just learned what that means!) exercise in trying to convince us and himself that he's not a complete zero. He's desperate for others to ascribe some kind of shock value in his utterly asinine, narcissistic takes.
What's Hegelian about that?
They're both incomprehensible
>I was in charge of planning nights
>I had no social life on the weekends, because it was consumed by the club
A) I doubt he had a busy social schedule to destroy.
B) He could have asked for help.
>All my friends were just geeks
Once again, Dobson acting like he's better than "other nerds" while claiming to be one.
>stole the anime club
But I thought it was destroying your social life. Shouldn't you be happy?
>and did a poor job running it
Ah yes, tragic that this thing you hated fell apart after you abandoned it.
Side note, what was wrong with Case Closed? I remember it still had murder, which is the only thing I could imagine needing censored.
>Side note, what was wrong with Case Closed?
Shinichi Kudo became Jimmy Kudo and Ran Mouri became Rachel Moore.
Name changes and vaguely trying to avoid mentioning it took place in Japan were the only changes in the dub.
Dobson's such a fricking crybaby.
>Side note, what was wrong with Case Closed? I remember it still had murder, which is the only thing I could imagine needing censored.
I don't remember any censorship (there was covered nudity I remember) but IMO the localisation was bad because it became untenable; Early on it didn't matter but some of the cases relied on knowledge of Japanese language and culture and it was just sort of brushed over the best they could.
>I had no social life on the weekends because it was a eaten up by the club.
Wouldn't the club be his social life then?
Do you honestly think anyone at the club liked him? I bet nobody wanted to be around him or talk to him, and just let him do the set up and tear down.
It's quite sad that someone with technical skills like his and a fair amount of clout couldn't let go of petty grudges from his college days.
Does he have ANY friends? My armchair psychology senses are tingling, but he seems like he blocks out anyone who criticizes him and spends almost all his time alone and stews about why no one can rise to his level. He has no one to really talk about the stuff that bothers him and so it festers.
There's a good chance he has no friends BECAUSE of how he lashes out at people who dares even say anything negative at him, leading to this negative feedback loop
>Iria
>"a BABY'S movie"
Yeah I'll take things that never happened for $500, Alex
Don't worry, anon, SYAC is ALL A LIE and totally not him just him deflecting criticism that makes him look worse in retrospect
>to make a joke
WHERE'S THE JOKE?
why are so many artists nothing more than petulant, insecure, neurotic manchildren?
At least Dobson is not a serial rapist.
...That we know of.
Getting sent to prison for being a sex pest honestly sounds incredibly Dobsonian. Just imagine the distant year of 2030:
>Okay, so I've been in prison for a while. I really didn't want to talk about this, but I have the feeling that eventually some trolls will dig up my arrest report and I want to get in front of it.
>In 2018, I attended a party. An adult party. With drinking. I hit it off with someone and she told me, very clearly, that she wanted to get intimate but that she wanted to stay a little longer first
>Eventually the party started clearing out and my date had had what I now realize was too much to drink.
>I found her on a bed in a spare bedroom and asked her if her offer still stood and she very clearly said "yes". I'll leave what happened next to your imaginations.
>In the morning she woke up and was upset for some reason. Naturally, I was very confused by this as reminded her that we had had a prior arrangement and I had received affirmative consent. Anyway, that didn't stop two of her jock friends from busting into the room uninvited and roughing me up.
>The cops were called and it turned out that, despite what she had told me the night before, she was in fact underage. I tried to explain my side of things to the cops but I was beaten and arrested anyway, despite mentioning the fact that I had been assaulted and the victim of fraud.
>As I didn't have the cash to make bond and none of my so-called friends decided to help me, I ended up staying in prison I tried to explain myself at trial but it didn't help
>Frankly, I don't feel like any of this was fair but at this point I'm used to life not treating me fairly. I'm also pretty sure that the cops and the judge had it out for me.
>Past that there's not much to tell, I served my time and was released early for good behavior. So that's where I've been.
>I have nothing but remorse for my actions (whatever the good faith in which I acted) and simply wish to put this behind me.
What really happened:
>"""Somehow""" Dobson ended up at a party with high schoolers
>A fat, drunk wallflower with zero self-esteem (oh hey, just like the only girl who ever showed any interest in him in high school) flirted with him a little bit after he mentioned he was a professional artist, but rapidly got creeped out and started dodging him while Dobson just sat at the edge of the room watching her get drunker and drunker; she never mentioned her age but Dobson saw her drinking and decided that she was obviously legal
>He was asked to leave, said that he forgot his hat and used that excuse to sneak upstairs
>He found her passed out, asked if he could pork her and she mumbled something
>She woke up the next morning to a fat, naked, balding forty year-old with a micropeen spooning her and something wet on her thighs and panicked
>Dobson tried to calmly and rationally remind her that she had consented last night and told him that she was on contraception, but two other guests who had slept over called the cops while the girl ran to the bathroom and started crying; when the cops pulled up out front Dobson tried to run but was stopped by the same guests who had called the cops.
>His situation was not helped by trying to explain to the cops that he was lied to and had done nothing wrong and that he wanted to charge the two men who stopped him from leaving with unlawful imprisonment.
>When he found out that yes, he was being arrested and there was nothing he could do about it, he started screaming and thrashing in an attempt to get the cops to hit him but this didn't work out very well because the whole thing was being filmed; he did, however, manage to cut his head on the car door
>After that sratagem failed, he tried to bribe them on the way to the station, first with art commissions and then with cash
>At trial, he insists on taking the stand himself and it went as well as you'd expect
>Sent to state prison, eventually released early for snitching
not enough
>SIGH!
work on it
>he sexchated with willing adult women
THE MONSTER
Him being a groomer just makes the end of Castlevania season 4 turbo creepy.
Dobson is a sad figure; too lazy to improve his art, too prideful to take criticism as anything other than a massive injustice to be fought.
>Louis CK having a comeback
>James Franco having a comeback
One can only hope Dobby gets his day to shine again
Christ I wanna bully the frick out of him. Hold him down and slap his fat breasts until they turn red and he starts crying in front of everyone.
>"4 days straight"
Is he literally moronic? It took me like seven hours front-to-back and that was when I was in middle school.
I mean, people read at different paces. I read remarkably slow for someone who spends a large chunk of his free time reading.
Not that it's particularly funny or anything but my favorite Dob rant will always be when he got butthurt about not being able to play Sonic Generations because it wasn't on the Wii, and even offered some backseat how-to-program advice.

Zelda is a stupid, do-nothing c**t and should calm her breasts. Her life online is purely about attention and fueled wholly by who here father was. Pretending anyone should give a shit what she feels is sure sign of a moronic npc.
Zelda can jump off a cliff. People just point at dobson for being moronicly autistic.
His image was raped
