    ITT: rage filled stories about normalfags or weeaboofags

    So I talked with a female normal friend of mine that the only anime she watch is Naruto, and she tells me she saw a horrible sick anime movie the other day.
    I ask what was it called and she tells me she don't remember but something about a retarded fish-girl being hit on by a 5 year old boy.
    I facepalmed and asked if it was called "Ponyo On The Cliff"? she said yes.

    I told her it's a Miyazaki film, and a Ghibli film. If she thought it was sick or horrible then something is terribly wrong with her.
    Upon hearing the name Miyazaki she told me she read a novel by him. I was like "oh really"? because as far as I know Miyazaki didn't write anything (but could've been another Miyazaki I'm not farmiliar with)
    She started explaining the plot and then I realized she talked about Murakami's "Norwegian Wood". So I was excited again because it's one of my favorite J-novels and asked her how she liked it, and she said she quit after 50 pages because he was describing scenery too much.

    I'm pretty sure I've become all offended and shit because you called Murakami's work a 'J-novel'.
    That is not a genre.
    Murakami is a genius.
    And fuck classing everything out of Japan as a genre.

    You hear about how Miyazaki recently completely lost his shit when he saw an iPad? He also hates email and cell phones. My guess is he was pissed off because Summer Wars was better than Ponyo and it had a technology-oriented plot.

    There's this site I like to go to from time to time. The community is fairly diverse. You have these folks who watch anime from time to time, and then others who are completely obsessed with it. Hey, to each their own right? From time to time, however, these guys will start these discussions about how stupid people who aren't as well versed in anime are. Worse still, they'll sometimes point their collective fingers at other people who really like anime, as if to give themselves a little pat on the back for not being as big of geeks as these other folks. It kinda sucks.

    Congratulations on missing the point.

    He means that you needn't be mindless consumers, not that everyone should be "creators" at all times. He's simply asking that people exercise their brains once in a while in order to be discriminating consumers and seems to be angry at the fact that people eat this sort of hype up like a dog eats its food.

    Can't say I blame him. The brain seems to be an extraneous organ in about 90% of the human population. If it weren't for people like good old Hayao here, we'd probably all be wallowing in some sort of consumerist hellhole, buying whatever is presented to us without question.

    I have this friend who asked me where I get my anime from. I told him, I torrent. He doesn't know what bittorrent is, so I tell him I'd show him later but for now he'd have to resort to direct downloading. This motherfucker doesn't know what DDL is either. I'm disgusted with him. I ask where he's been getting HIS anime from and he tells me using a downloader on Youtube videos. We didn't get into it further because I was done with him, but I'm fairly sure he doesn't know of actual streaming anime sites. Even using his shittastic method there are better ways to go about downloading quality videos.

    And now with the online manga sites going down, he'll be one of the many left to die.

    Maybe this is true to an extent, but you can't seriously deny that Miyazaki is fucking nuts and takes it too far.

    We won't use cell phones. CELL PHONES. Not even just on the train or something like that, won't use them period. Is the ability to communicate with each other easily and quickly really such a detriment to humanity? If anything it strengthens human bonds to one another.

    He's just a stereotypical nature freak who believes that the farther something gets from natural things and processes the more evil it is.

    In fact the general consensus amongst people who AREN'T crazy is that the Internet and constant access to it is actually stimulating human creativity.

    So there I was playing Ace Attorney: Investigations on my NDS when some gaiafag with an Inuyasha T-shirt comes to me and asks me what game it is.
    I mean seriously. It's obvious you're retarded enough not to hide your powerlevel to that extent, but not even knowing PW series?
    I explained not too willingly about it, and he asked if it have a multiplayer, I tell him no because it's like a visual novel.
    And he says "What is this shit? I'd rather play Yu-Gi-Oh if I had had a DS"

    I so wanted to punch the guy in the ribs over it.

    I believe this was covered by miyazaki:
    You go out into the world without enriching your imagination. You are merely grasping the iWhatever as a skimming tool you use to stroke yourself.

    This has nothing to do with the iPad from what I can tell. Please tell me your interpretation. I am curious.
    >You are merely grasping the iWhatever as a skimming tool you use to stroke yourself.
    So he's complaining about it because the interaction method is taps, touches and strokes? I recall he said it was like masturbating. I'm not sure I see the problem here.
    >I’m sure there are many people who want to become omnipotent by getting their hands on this iWhatever.
    No, I think they just want an easy-to-use way to get content. Again, I'm not sure I see the problem here.

    You are explicitly NOT allowed to speak about your waifu in the real world. You are explicitly NOT allowed to speak about your waifu on the internet, IN THE EXCEPTION of approved 4chan boards, and other forums/futabas which discuss similar tastes.

    >Neither of these statements have anything to do with the iPad. You purchase an iPad because it's useful. What the hell do these statements have to do with the iPad? Don't just cite, elaborate.

    These days, the ipad is seen as a status symbol because owning one means you have a plenty of cash for an overpriced useless toy. Macfags like to eat whatever crap Steve Jobs shits out. Marketing wins these days when it comes to technology. There are plenty of other alternatives which cost less that has the same features and more than the ipad. Have you never once stepped into /g/?

    First off, I've actually used the tablet shown on the right there. I used to own one. In terms of usability and interface, it was a mess.

    Secondly, many of the listed details are false. The iPad does have a headphone jack for example.

    No. You're fucking wrong. I carry my cell phone in case someone needs to contact me when I'm away from my computer.

    When I'm at my computer, my parents can contact me through cell phone, or various online bros can contact me through Steam or Xfire, etc.

    What's convenience is extraneous apps and uses on the cell phone. I use my cell phone only for calling, or responding to a text message that was sent to me. None of this picture bullshit. No internet bullshit. No facebook bullshit.

    The convenience are those extraneous apps. The cell phone itself is something I need as a form of communication. If I get in a car accident and I'm half dead, I need something to call a fucking ambulance. If my father gets into a work related accident, my mom needs something to contact me through.

    That communication could be vital.

    The iPad isn't a fucking phone. It's just for extraneous bullshit. It's just a big fucking iPod with other worthless features.

    So, your problem with the iPad is:
    "I don't need one, so no one else should"

    Right. Let me tell you a story. My mother has multiple sclerosis. She can't get out of bed much. Setting up and maintaining a laptop for her is a hassle. An iPad works well, does everything she needs and has an interface that she can use without proper motor control.

    But apparently, since you personally don't need an iPad, she shouldn't either.

    You realize that whether or not you like Apple products and if the iPad is an overpriced status symbol or not is COMPLETELY FUCKING IRRELEVANT.

    Do you honestly think Miyazaki, the man with no cell phone, is concerned about the performance and price of an iPad over a Windows Netbook? That he even understands the reason computer nerds hate Apple? Fuck no, he hates it because it's a machine. He would be saying the exact same thing even if the iPad was made by HP and cost $50.

    Allow me to provide all of you with this comprehensive list that clearly demonstrates that a single Cheerio is superior to a computer.

    Cheerio:
    -can be eaten
    -dirt cheap
    -small and easy to store

    Computer:
    -inedible
    -expensive
    -large and tough to store

    By my flawless logic, we can all see that it is always better to get a Cheerio than a computer.

    Now to see if anyone here knows what satire is. I don't personally like the iPad, but those stupid as hell comparison sheets sure don't prove that they're worthless.

    You could have done that without stating your mother had multiple sclerosis, or you could have done the smart thing and avoided the fucking argument in the first place. It was an idiotic move. I feel sorry for how things panned out with your mother, but dude, to use her in an internet fight over an iPad? It's just so fucking futile. Please, for your own sake, don't fucking do it again.

    It doesn't matter if it's valid or not.

    You introduced your MOTHER to an internet argument. And EVERYTHING is fair game on the internet. You're the retard STUPID enough to bring his own mother to the conversation.

    A word from the wise: Don't do that. Ever again. No matter what the reason. Don't do it.

    >Those two portable game systems are a lot more fun than a fucking iPad.
    The iPad is marketed towards your typical starbucks coffee chugging, greenpeace-supporting, homosexual, scarf-wearing, liberal arts studying hipsters.
    These are the sort of people who think themselves above playing games, but who go on facebook 6 hours a day and play farmville. Don't waste your time arguing with retards.

    I like Miyasaki, but I think Ponyo is pretty fucked up.
