Poll (kinda): Help us settle the Sonic/obliviousness dispute
-
Continuing the discussion from @Zecc didn't whoosh, @accalia didn't get a grammar spoon:
@Maciejasjmj said:
You're not trying to tell me people are actually enjoying Sonic memes and being oblivious?
yeah, i am.
and i'm quite confident that there are plenty of others that agree with me.
@Maciejasjmj said:
Do we have to hold a poll on that? Because we can hold a poll on that.
Be my guest
Seeing how DiscoPolls are broken, we'll have to resort to different techniques:
Anonymous, I think.
-
No option that I agree with is in there.
-
which option would you like added then?
-
IDGAF
-

Personally, I'd go for "meh".
IDGAF
Or that. That works.
-
meh works here as well.
-
It's a simple binary choice. No DONT_CARE stuff, since it's not a mandatory vote.
Filed under: also, whenever you don't care, a Care Bear dies
-
Except you miss out on knowing the number of people who don't care vs. the number of people who care enough to choose an option.
-
Right now, I could get annoyed about my indifference not being considered important.
But I'm too indifferent to care.
-
You're welcome to submit a pull request, which will be suitably denied with all honors, since I can't edit the fucking thing.
Just comment here, I guess?
-
Or I could go over the top of your head with a poll that is clearly invalid because it allows multiple selection.
-
Ok.
Some kinds of obliviousness are amusing.
Some kinds of obliviousness are irritating.
Some kinds of obliviousness are just there.It's neither-nor in that regard.
And considering that many other people use emojis (like ) or stuff from TV shows to express their feelings about something, the whole Sonic memes thing is pretty much in the general area of "I don't care enough"/"Pink hedgehogs at least don't make those noisy KYON sounds" for me.
-
I like how one of the options is
checkbox
-
I didn't even checkbox right. When you vote checkbox, you check all the boxes.
-
I thought we, as a forum, were on the same level where intentionally whooshing to get a badge was a Bad Thingβ’
-
It's not like I want whoosh badges, but if I deserve them, then I'll accept them with grace and humility. And the three I have I do indeed deserve. I mean, who whooshes on Jurassic Park on purpose?
-
Personally, I'd go for "meh".
Also called SONIC_NOT_FOUND.
Can't believe I'm the first one asking for that option.
-
Obliviousness is cool, because then we can flame away for that. "Dafuq" posts in general are the sorts of +1 posts that the Like button should handle (outside of /t/1000 obviously).
The big images remind me of when little kids are trying to be cute about something. An occasional one might be funny, but at this point I'd say they've been over done.
To my mind, @RaceProUK has moved from "TDWTF poster" to "sonic poster."

That's fair; I've already started making them smaller anyway ;)
-
But they still load giant due to @CodingHorrorBot
-
@JazzyJosh Is Doing It Wrongβ’

-
The problem is that you reuse the images! In short succession even!
I mean, at least have the decency to memefy new pictures everytime you have to reply in picture...
Also: be aware that Jeff also replied in meme pictures and that was not taken well here.On the whole Sonic vs other picture debate that is almost implied here: I don't care enough, honestly. I mean, yeah, we could post more cute cats doing cute things while being generally cute (or dogs, whatever) but it's not hurting anybody (unless you count games like Sonic'06 and Sonic Boom ( ) )
As per usual, try to not spam a single thing everywhere or people will get annoyed...
Try to look at it this way: the occasional blakeyrant is nice (I enjoyed his participation in the Enlightened topic) while him being constantly pissed about everything and anything is kind of annoying at times.
Filed Under: There was something about obvliviousness but I am also "meh" towards that
Edit: Corrected the mentioned topic
-
you know if you simply edited them smaller they'd load right and save bandwidth.
:-P
-
Pink hedgehogs at least don't make those noisy KYON sounds
well played there.
although to be fair it has been quite a while since i had to break out the "foxish swearing"
-

β¦it's on my todo listβ¦
@accalia said:although to be fair it has been quite a while since i had to break out the "foxish swearing"
Well, last time you spoke my language instead
-

-
Just submitted a PR that should prevent that from happening now. Unless I post both emoji and image from mobile. Which I've never done
-
merged.

I don't know who that pink character is supposed to be, I don't care sufficiently to find out, and it's not obvious what emotion they are intended to convey so those posts are essentially content-free to me...
-
What does it say that "checkbox" is the most common response?
Oh yes, herding cats/trolling.
Myself, it doesn't bother me, but I wouldn't mind seeing it toned down a bit.
-

It's a water dragon.
Lies are the first step to truth.

I only know that the characters are Sonic related because other people have said so. I'd recognized actual Sonic, mind you.
-
I rember playing Sonic the Hedgehog on a handheld Sega device in roughly 1992. That's pretty much the whole of my exposure to the phenomenon...
-
You have a good mind.
There are four Sonic characters:
- Sonic
- Dr. Robotnik
- Tails
- (optional) Knuckles
NO MORE.
-
What about grey robot sonic guy from death egg zone?
-
-
What about the turtle that tried to eat poison because he thought it said potion? Are you telling me that isn't canon?
-
-
bot to help you keep one of those
WTF? Are we your personal digital assistant now, in addition to other things?

Have we decided if Discourse is Turing-complete yet?

Has it risen to Turning-complete? I thought it was digging the other way?

New Discourse Bot Idea:
Reads code (Java, Python, or something similar) out of a post along with a set of inputs, then runs said code against the inputs, returning the results in the reply.
