The whole cast are otaku and they like his otaku friends and doing cool shit with them. You should rewatch it, but the whole show is basically showing the middle finger to normalfags for making fan of people for liking anime, cosplay, SFX, machines etc but also criticizing the negative aspects of the otaku subculture like hardcore dudes that use otakuism for escapism and detachment from reality, and the show ends with the main character being the king of otaku and making the entire world an otaku paradise.

Just to make sure we're on the same page: waifu isn't a synonynm for "anime female I find marginally appealing at the time" as it has been co-opted by normalfags and seasonal anime watchers.
Waifu is one and only. She who is perfect and irreplaceable such that you love her and hold onto her dearly for many years; her folder upon your hard drive exceeds the material of any other girl by gigabytes and thousands of files. You don't just swap her out like a change of clothes with the coming and going of seasonal anime. Haremfags will make excuses such as "I have too much love to give for a single person" and to them I say they lack the love and devotion for a single girl, much less a harem. If she doesn't drive you with a fervor to draw and write about her or at least surround yourself with her image, then she's not your waifu, she's a floozie.
If you think you have multiple waifus then you haven't found her yet.

Having a waifu… is serious business…

I would take the edgelord nihilism out for a laugh at anyone's expense of the cancer era 100 times out of 100 over the self serious srs bsns types that inevitably, without fail, always devolves into politics.
The only thing that moves on that target is the flavor of politics involved.

The only people who have effectively said "no thank you" to that normalfaggotry were the edgy boys that made chanology unpalatably lame in the eyes of chan culture. A cultural victory.

Listen, nigger, just don't bring normalfaggot politics and topics here. It's literally that simple.

>>11909
Hmm, usually I treat normalfag as a stronger way to say norm, just like normalfaggot is a step up in turn. That's what I assumed happened in >>>/qa/112645 (sorry to point fingers) since generals being chatrooms is such a common talking point and the tone was much more negative than usual. Same for >>>/secret/17687, just a bit of buttupsetness. That and the tech schizo are the only results from recent months:
https://kissu.moe/search.php?board=none&search=normalfag

Now, that aside, if I were to see someone spell out silly memes like that right by the door, I'd assume a penguin of doom situation, in a bad way. It simply runs contrary to imageboard obscurantism, and that's what we're stuck with. I agree with >>11910. In any case, Patchy and Koruri aren't like fat Sanae, they're posted regularly and things would have to go very, very wrong for that to stop being the case. They're not too hard to grasp either, I'd worry more about greeners.

>>11907
I (>>11906) think it's important to mention our memes/inside-jokes because they're one of the easiest things to lose as a community grows. As a real-life example, recently, I've seen people using the term 'normalfag' on Kissu, in lieu of our homegrown variant 'norm'.

I'm not trying to play culture police; that sort of thing is the death knell of a community. Nor am I saying that all of the people doing it are necessarily new users. But I think it's important to the sites identity that we inform new users about elements of our site culture that don't exist elsewhere, so that they're at least aware of them.

Czaks ruda kurwa is the administrator/creator of vichan. On top of that, he is a well known serpent, thief, manipulator, and all around a shit person, much, much worse than Jim, Littlecar and Josh all combined.

In case you don't know, vichan is a polish imageboard with the levels of cancer exceeding reddit, 4ch and tumblr and whatever you can think of. It's basically facebook with "anonymity" at present point. For one, Czaks is advertising a chan/imageboard derivative called Uczuciopedia on his website, which is a facebook page running on stolen polish chan culture original content and memes and run by highschool normalfag chads. He was invited to a party organised by Lanceq, the creator of Uczuciopedia, on which he (czaks) was insulted and made fun of (he wanted to feel like a highschooler chad one more time </3, rip in peace)

Czaks has a history of undermining privacy of the users of his chan, he has also declared vichan "the polish 4chan", he has fucked up karachan a few times (another polish chan, this one is less cancerous and more of a mix of modern day 8ch and old 4ch /b/) and generally assisted in spreading Polish chan OC on mainstream sites like facebook, for cancerous normalfag youth to use and appropriate.

Pic rel is czaks, as you can notice, he is a ginger and has no soul.


I don't think I'll be able to find you anything in english. And not much in polish, unless I find an archived imageboard page, because the good anons don't blog about chans and don't talk about chans outside of chans (Karachan, for example, tries to keep outsiders out so bad that you need special cookies and adblock lines to get in and browse properly). One fact I recall was that he blew all the server money on drugs, (I think it was cocaine?) the money included ad revenue and donations.


Typing in "czaks ruda kurwa" gets you this:

>immediate thought was that this was an FF problem, but it really could be Google's fault, the cunts.

If something is working correctly in FF it is _always_ "google's fault". With the chrome engine being a "living standard" they can push updated HTML to their websites and engine first and force everyone else to play catch up with them. This gives them an advantage because they can not only introduce new features they can break old ones. For example, they could push something to break the loading of media in a new version of chrome then suddenly all third party websites outside of youtube and the major social networks that got the heads up is broken in chrome. Making them out of reach of "normal" users that don't fuck around with Firefox, Linux and the small minority of users that go beyond the Apple/Google walled garden and the Microsoft botnet.

It wasn't like this in the 80s-2010s. Back then we had a standard body that updated HTML every now and again after years of public discourse which involved a bunch of different parties that included independent tech people from all over the world. This kept out things like DRM and other ways to lock content behind a wall. It also kept out things that datamined the end user.

Now Google owns the W3C and the biggest "rival" browser engine. Which just gets the same updates only on a slight delay. We also have browser engines now that refuse to display pages that aren't "trusted". So everything with a self signed certification or on plain old http looks like a spooky virus to normalfags.

Normalfags store everything on the cloud nowadays.
If the cloud auto-converts everything from jpeg to the futuristic-and-great format, they will probably not even realize, nor will they notice the drop in quality.
When they try and fail to access the data on their old storage devices, people will laugh at them for living in the past.

>Also why are people surprised that shit made by normalfags for normalfags is boring and uninspired?
Because Facebook announced they dumped $10 billion into VR development this year alone and are hiring 10K developers in the EU to make their "metaverse."

Fuck facebook or whatever they're called now, I am not buying or using anything made by them.
Also why are people surprised that shit made by normalfags for normalfags is boring and uninspired?
I hope that different developers pick up VR, both the hardware and software, cause it would be seriously a huge disappointment if it gets all centralized into facebook "metaverse".

>>6702
see normalfag isn't so much about actual "normal" people though
however you define normal
it's about INTRUSIVELY "normal" people
people who bring up "normal" shit everywhere and disparage "non-normal" shit
you can be happily married with a wife and kids but if you discuss anime and japanese culture respectfully on imageboards without turning your nose up at others for not fitting the "mold" then you're not a normalfag

there's a screencap expressing this view but I don't have it

Sorry for making a bad thread and being a failed normalfag
I just want to be loved..

I just say norms because it's funnier. Normalfag after discovering norm is just trying too hard. I can't just say "The normalfags the normalfags the normalfags" it just gets too many syllables in at once and it's a drag. "The norms the norms the norms the norms the norms the norms the norms the norms the norms the norms the norms the norms the norms the norms the norms the norms the norms the norms" works so well I can't help but copy paste it over and over. If you can't imagine yourself rocking backing forth saying it, it's simply inferior.

Normalfag on IBs, norm irl, nigger for niggers.

People say this, but I didn't hear "normalfag" much until I wanna say the mid-2010s.

Normalfag is traditional, can't fuck upon it.
>>6687
Also Normans is a funny term as well.

Norman is funny to me but otherwise normalfag

it depends on the context, usually normalfag for most situations, normalniggers for situations I can clearly tell there are normalniggers in the room I need to offend, norms for people I don't want to offend but need to state that other peoples tastes are purely pedestrian.

The term has been thrown around so much by all kinds of different people that I don't really like to use it at all anymore, but if I do, it would be "normalfag" because it sounds the most neutral to me. I still enjoy racism in other contexts, if that matters.

I'm far from an experienced audiophile but I really believe Spotify is designed for the average normalfag who uses earpods and doesn't know how to pirate music. Lucida and the two sites below offer free alternatives with Flac support, yeet allows you to stream and I'm not sure about squid.

>Normalfag shit, tourists latching onto anime culture.
lol what, cosplay is one of the oldest parts of Otaku culture. I remember some anon dumping photos of cosplayers from the earliest conventions in Japan from the 1970s and 1980s, it was surreal und KINO.

Normalfag shit, tourists latching onto anime culture.

I'm aware. I was specifically referring to the soyjaks spammed on /qa/ around 2020. The original wojak alongside the one that was made to mock soyboys circa 2017 have become normalfag memes on their own and thus has faded into obscurity for the most part. What i was saying is that before that pepes were the closest thing.

>>153891
>isn't [s4s] where the term "dumb frogposter" originated from
Yes, it came from them
>spammy cancer polluting imageboards before jaks were even a thing
Well pepe and wojak were fairly contemporary, its just that pepes became popular with normalfags and tourists before wojaks did

>>152903
Even on altchans themselves I've seen some concern trolling about "splitting the community" and begging to go back. Somehow modern 4chan user became everything we accused normalfags on regular social media to be.

Shonen is simply a magnet for all kinds of annoying normalfags and outsiders - jujutsu kaisen underage posters, chainsaw man twitter people....

desu I wouldn't call it a revolution but I didn't see nearly the same amount of outcry in the normalfagsphere when Win10 came out. My friends that were calling me a schizo weirdo for not moving to Win10 are now dragging their feet about moving to Win11. I think a lot of people who are a couple notches deeper into the tech world than your average normalfag really will jump to Linux when SteamOS releases.

>>146519
I think so, literally the only problem with BF3 on Linux is that the weird website launcher thingy doesn't work so as far as I know I can't even get into the game to see if it actually runs well on Linux or not.

A real human wants to be happy, not a servant of rich capitalists, rich communists or rich socialists. Being successful means enjoying your life, not working all day so you can pretend to be nobility with lots of expensive luxuries for the few hours a day that you're not working. The vast majority of the population are dumb masochistic normalfags that will choose to slave their lives away no matter what anyone like me tries to tell them, so civilization isn't going to fall apart just because some people choose to be NEETs and enjoy our lives. Even if it did somehow fall apart because of NEETs that's okay because it's shit.

The only bad advice here is not to wear a 2D shirt, you should absolutely wear a shirt with your waifu on it everyday to show that you have good taste in anime. If you don't they will all still assume you're a huge weeb anyway because you're a gaijin tourist, but they will assume by default that you're a filthy normalfag who only watches shit like one piece and naruto. If you wear an Ojamajo t-shirt or something they'll instantly respect you far more than the average tourist.

>>133994
That isn't normalfag speak though.

There's no perfectly comfy imageboard but Kissu's probably the closest you'll get to it. Smugloli actually discusses anime unlike 90% of other places, but like others said they really like complaining about le normalfags and black people, since that *somehow* ties into anime. Kissu avoids both of those and the only relatively annoying issue here is that some people, definitely not all, become passive-aggressive or outright childish at the slightest hint of disagreeing with a discussion. Generally >>119710 is correct, though. Most people here can 空気を読む pretty well and discuss stuff without it becoming an insult fest.

I've decided to write about basically everything I could think of that's relevant here, so please bear with me. You can call it a rant, but there's a narrative here.

To start off, Andy is honestly one of the best examples I could hope for in terms of, let's say, namedfags, in a stereotypical way. He was extremely notorious back on 4/qa/, extremely notorious on Kissu before leaving, and extremely notorious once more after returning a month ago. Here's one of the pics that were made about him back then. I'm not gonna describe his behavior in detail, I'm just going to say he's the particular kind of person that doesn't do it for attention, it's just the way he is. For me, at some point the familiarity bias kicked in, it became more endearing than upsetting. He doesn't give a fuck and I deeply respect that, not in spite of that he can be quite a piece of work.
However, (and this is what sets it apart from a clique) you can criticize him all you want, he's still a fucking faggot, and nobody's going to hound you if you do so. He doesn't have immunity, if anything it's the opposite. You don't need to know who he is, either. He's kind of a walking meme, and I like to interact with him as such every so often. Sometimes it's better to reply "shut up, andy" than to actually engage him. But, I'm not going to proactively namedrop him up out of nowhere, that I do disagree with.

As for myself, in the last few months I've been referred to by four different names, all of which were accurate, not boogeymen in any way, and *predominantly* used in a positive way. I got them not by avatarfagging but by posting things I like. One of them I received over the course of a single thread (with divisive feedback), where someone made a funny edit about our exchanges, another person said he was inspired by my autism, and later on a third guy made a youtube video that was a parody mocking my posts. Shit was hilarious, frankly, I enjoyed it a lot. But I'm never gonna go and parade myself as that one anon from that one time as if that made me a superior poster, that's not the point. I'll just treasure the memory. The point is that I was given names, singled out, and had fun with it, it was by no means a bad thing. It wasn't just me either, others were having fun too.
I've never tripped myself and I don't plan to, never used the name field seriously at all, but it's also worth mentioning people like Catface and jevin which were really just excellent and IPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

The opposite of autistic is not a normalfag. Normal, well-adjusted, neurotypical people can very easily have an emotional attachment to a fictional character. Do you really think all those people who like books, movies, and TV shows couldn't care less about the characters themselves and only care about the plot? That's ridiculous. That's so far from normal it's obscene to suggest!

By contrast it is precisely the neurodivergent, the autistic, that might not care about the personhood or emotions of a given character -- let alone even be able to comprehend said character's thoughts. I honestly think the word autistic has been watered down so heavily that people online who think of themselves as outcasts who have niche hobbies think of themselves as autistic when they're really just poorly socialized and introverted.

Berserk is still shit though, normalfag shit, please read any other fucking manga please.

>Romantic love would have been wonderful, and I fantasized about it tremendously as a teenager and young adult as I wanted to experience the things I saw in RPGs and such (Lunar...)
That's more or less how I think, too. I guess the way I see it is that I'd like to at least experience it once before I can't anymore. Past a certain point, you lose out on that opportunity for innocent youthful romance and your dating pool starts diminishing to people who already have kids or are relatively desensitized to love.

It used to be easier to deal with when I was younger, and I used to complain about normalfags and waifu for laifu and so on just like most other NEETs do, but through my mid 20s the feelings of longing to make someone happy and to be able to share and do the things we like together have made my heart heavy. Surely there are people of equally sentimental mind out there. Do we truly all just while away the years alone and slowly get more bitter and older?

I'd originally intended my post as just an empty thought before it got moved to it's own thread, but I guess my point was is that for NEETs, romance feels like a hole that progressively gets harder and harder to climb out of. Your interests won't align with people out in the real world, and online, legitimate relationships are basically impossible to establish. It feels impossible to break this cycle. And yet you'd think it wouldn't with the number of people that are probably similarly like-minded.

>>2152
If I had to sum it up, I think I'd describe it as "less miserable".
People are much more forthcoming with their interests, fanfic is surprisingly more mainstream (at least with Dragon Ball, DB AF came out all the way back in 1999 and everyone knows about it, also see El Hermano de Jiren/Gohan Blanco), the attitude around loli is a lot laxer than in the anglosphere, and there isn't as much of a focus on refined taste, elitism, or fighting normalfaggotry (for better or worse). You don't have nearly as many hardcore 2D lovers as Japan's, but you don't have Anglo moralist crusaders either, and the concept of ironic weebs doesn't exist. East/west divide isn't as strong, as you can see with artists like Alkemanubis, perhaps because it's all foreign anyways.

Comments there are the most embarrassing normalfag opinions I've read in a while.

>>1101
Imageboard users will look down on normalfags but their consumer choices in anime, software, consumer technology, preferred websites to waste time on, all become part of their identity that they religiously proselytize and take up in some holy war. It's like that slide from that presentation about making consumers into brand evangelists. This is the goal of every big company, and people on the internet (I say people, but it really only affects men, women couldnt care less it seems) completely adopt this frame of thinking and engage in brand jihad. It's bizarre. Get a real personality.
