The General Comments Thread

have you ever felt like saying something that didn't quite fit the positivity or complaints/vent boards? look no further! this is the board for that.

some base rules:

  • in general, use general common sense and decency when posting here.
  • use general common sense when it comes to naming or vagueing others, especially if they're also on toyhou.se and/or otherwise likely to see your message (yes, even if they're blocked).
  • this is not the place for discourse and/or heated or otherwise unfriendly discussion, especially not about particularly serious or controversial topics. please take that somewhere else. regular discussion is perfectly fine! use your best judgement here.
  • if posting explicit and/or heavy content, spoiler and appropriately warn for it! this means either put it in a spoiler box or change both the text and background to the same colour (like this).
  • keep this thread pg-13. it's accessible and used by both minors and adults, so don't post anything you wouldn't be comfortable with anybody in this age range seeing. here is the 18+ counterpart of this board.
  • don't forget to drink some water and get up or stretch for a bit if you haven't recently ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ
  • if you don't like the way this board is working or have any suggestions, feel free to shoot me a message!
  • breaking the rules will recieve a comment/PM warning from me. if it happens a third time, you will get banned from this board.
    • bans have yet to happen in the 6 years this thread has been up. let's keep it that way!

please note I have this thread muted due to not having the time to check every single message. I do check occasionally, but if you see anyone breaking the rules, please PM me and I will deal with it accordingly. thanks!

I didn't think about it at first but TH really has become more silent, not as a general thing per se but when it comes to the times when *I am* awake 

PrinceSawyer

I feel like this series loses a lot from the way it switches between character perspectives and pacing in general; I don't feel close to the characters, I don't believe the protagonist's connection to them, and overall, it feels like this series is skipping the necessary build up. Even now that there is more action going on, it feels like I don't know the protagonist enough to really...believe that they're doing this. Or believe what they're thinking. 

But I'm still gonna read the other two books, because I gotta. Can't stop now.

I've never actually like... read a Neil Gaiman or Terry Pratchett book before... and I'm not sure if it was a good idea to read one they did together as a first? but.... I kinda love it and I'm only 36 pages in....


(but seriously what is wrong with these men? Who do I blame for this stream of concious writing that is harder to follow then my own thought process cause HOMG dudes slow.down.plz.

(inspired by that thread but it's been a longstanding thought, less rant/complaint so it's here)

I always wonder what attracts people to stylistic copying. Like 1:1 of their inspiration. I know there's a lot of skill in it but isn't it sad not being unique? Like there's this guy who does dbz doujin and sells them at a local con. His art looks just like the better eps of the anime. (not as charming as akira toriyama's) Like it's amazing, but it's also strange to me. What's the point of riding coattails of a person you've never met? What's going to happen when the popularity of that style is gone and you're left struggling to break out of it? I just don't understand.

This is a beautiful thread and im glad it exists sgsushsj.


Okay but like some lf these pokemon-esque mobile games are super underrated like Evocreo was literally my shit and it was honestly worth the measly dollar they ask for it??? Like i have 2 fancharacters for it and honestly it is super good and i reccomend it highly. Also Pokemon Duel was actually really great and honestly Super witty and fun to witness storyline like, My favorite characters were Nadya and Carlo like i didn't believe id get so attatched to a fictional talking disk mmmmmmmmmmmmm i need someone to scream w about these games im dead

Started watching kamen rider build because my friend is really into the whole scene as a whole and my heart is beating so fast!!! I missed action packed shows I have consumed too much slice of life and drama rather than like... proper action

Portal ruined my life


"Why are u crying?"


//turns slowly around

"I weep for the many lost turrets condemned to hell by my evil hand."

Honestly though this makes me  sad like i shouldn't be so attatched to them but every time they say "i don't blame you" or literally anything it honestly destroys my heart. This keeps me awake at night i have to take this to my grave i have to l i v e with my s i n s.
