Of course I'm quite versatile in the type of media/webcomics that I like so I probably wasn't upset by the changes in direction of the webcomic over the years.

I'll let El Santo tell you why I hate it.

You know I've read 4 or 5 different "reviews" about the comic and every single time the one thing I notice is...

That absolutely none of their arguments 'click' in my head, I just don't see 90% of the complaints as relevant nor did I even care about them when I was reading it.
In fact, a lot of this seems to be "Post-experience hatred" so to speak, people finish the webcomic then go back through and pick out every flaw they can while simultaneously absorbing every jaded review and criticism on the internet and completely souring their feelings about the comic.

I mean hell, honestly I probably would have liked the comic much less if I had read all this cynical nit-picky crap before hand.

The two biggest complaints I saw were:
It's wordy
It's not funny

Both of which I agree with. The wordiness makes it into a light novel with pictures, and the words aren't interesting or funny. If you like it, that's fine, but I consider it boring.

I just wanna say that El Santo didn't do that. He even pointed out that it was a running blog, and he tends to be fair.

I found it excrutiatingly awful, so, like metal chao, I stopped reading it as well.


Regarding a bit more interesting subject; have a picture taken on a different planet by an immigrant:

Anyone heard about the new Slendy movie coming out? Dunno if it's fake, but it looks pretty cool. I like that Slendy coming out of the door at 0:40.

Hormone release when scared in a non-dangerous environment. Like thrill-seekers who jump off things but for pussies.

I usually prefer to watch horror movies in a dark room, alone. I never liked watching that kind of movies with people at home. It's better when there is no one at home, and you keep thinking "OFC WAT IF SUM1 KILLZ MEH NO1 WIL NVER KNOW WHO IT WAZ!!!1one!1"

Slender man was scary when marble hornets was around and when it was on somethingawfulfroums, the games suck and after pewdiepie played it, everyone got into it and eventually milked the whole thing.
