The Internet and the Tyranny of Hyperbole
 
We are literally way too hyperbolic, the most we've been in recorded history. Discuss this epidemic that will end in bad times for all.

Neapolitan 05-29-2016 03:24 PM

How many more of these "Internet" threads are you going to make, a gajillion?

Paul Smeenus 05-29-2016 03:38 PM

I enjoy hyperbole nine quadrabazillion times more than every man, woman, and child that has ever been born, or ever will be born, combines.

Goofle 05-29-2016 03:40 PM

I see you've been reading your own posts back to yourself Chris.

Aux-In 05-29-2016 03:40 PM

Profit from it. Write a book that teaches people how to walk outside.

So you're that pretentious douche?

Frownland 05-29-2016 04:15 PM

Yes indeed, Chuck.

The Batlord 05-29-2016 04:17 PM

That's Karl to you.

DeadChannel 05-29-2016 04:34 PM

I really wanna come up with a pretentious pen name. Thoughts?

The Batlord 05-29-2016 04:38 PM

Just take your first name and pick an analog from another language.

Jim

DeadChannel 05-29-2016 05:00 PM

Jim Willahelm Walters it is.

Frownland 05-29-2016 05:00 PM

How about Pierre?

The Batlord 05-29-2016 05:02 PM

There aren't enough Archibalds in the world.

Frownland 05-29-2016 05:05 PM

Way too many Harrys though.

The Batlord 05-29-2016 05:06 PM

I'd say the number of Sachses is acceptable.

Karl Von Trollmeister.

This thread is just asking for a troll. Is this what MB has become?

The Batlord 05-29-2016 05:26 PM

Religion is the new movies.

YorkeDaddy 05-29-2016 05:52 PM

You're all nerds

The Batlord 05-29-2016 06:05 PM

He says with a Final Fantasy avatar...

YorkeDaddy 05-29-2016 06:12 PM

You know what Final Fantasy is. That makes you a nerd

God damn it. I can't unsee it.

I've always thought Yorke's avatar was an amalgam of a jawa and Paddington Bear.

Nope. It's a black mage.

DeadChannel 05-29-2016 09:44 PM

With a hardon.

I always thought it was relative of Orko from He-Man.

mordwyr mentions Paddington Bear and I'm the old man?

Zhanteimi 05-31-2016 10:40 PM

To be fair, I thought Orko, as well.
