I agree. I used to enjoy watching MLP FiM but after being in the fandom for two years, they ruined the show for me, which is a pity because it's not a bad show.

You say "tumblr" and immediately it's like "Yeaa..."

Any show that brings some kind of representation is going to be VICIOUSLY defended by social justice circles on tumblr, even if it's meant for kids to enjoy.

SU in particular because it hits soooo many marks.
-First CN show made by a woman.
-Majority female main characters.
-Three powerful female protagonists and one male protagonist who isn't treated as inferior or emasculated.
-Several overweight characters and not one fat joke is made.
-Majority POC (people of color) among voice cast.
-The character Stevonnie not having any specific gender.

The gems themselves are a two-fer. They're officially genderless, but are referred to as female, and there are at least two examples of romantic relationships between them.

So naturally the show gets latched onto by a lot of people who do stuff like attacking people who cosplay the characters but don't match the representation that character gives them (skinny Rose Quartz cosplayers, non-black Garnet cosplayers) and act like anyone who doesn't receive representation for it (white people, men) is going to take it away from them.

Just because it has diversity doesn't mean it's good.

YES.

This is probably a popular opinion on TBT but
Every Vine meme can go die.
I swear my bus is a Vine meme torture chamber.
 
1) I don't like FB and twitter. Too much drama for me.
2) Instagram is okay, but I hate how people will block you if you don't comment/like their pictures a lot.
3) The ._. and o3o faces make me cringe.
4) It's hard for me to get into anime that's doesn't have a serious tone to it (but Kill la Kill is okay)
5) dA isn't that bad. If you don't get involve in all the drama and stay chill then it's not that bad, but I don't get on there anymore.
6) Windows > Mac.
7) This generation of rap sucks. All they rap about is sex, drugs, and parties, it's really repetitive. But some of it (like Tyler the Creator) is good. You just gotta really for the best.
 
I hate when "being cynical" is an excuse for people to act rude. Being cynical and being a douchebag are two different things completely.

100% yes. And they blame it on the other person. Like "sorry you can't handle how blunt and honest I am". How about "sorry I'm a lonely loser that takes out my anger on other people".
 
well.. *are maybe since they are a band.. but yeah I hate a lot of modern metal/rock like that.
