I mean I dunno but I’ve had a trashcan in every room rule since I left home so maybe I am the problem. The bathroom ones got a removable sleeve so I can empty it into the big trash can to make it slightly easier to clean but that’s more a recent thing it’s not rocket science.

I find it especially concerning that this guy seemingly just has a jacket on, over scrubs.

Dude is a nurse or doctor or surgeon or some kind of physical health specialist... is ok with the thanos snap.

It’s not that we were content, it’s simply what we could afford.

Nah, that's not what I'm talking about. I'm not separate from these bachelors that I was seeing, I'm not independently wealthy because I kept more than 1 towel in my apartment, and I'm the same age as them.

These were deliberate choices to keep things very minimal without any thoughts to having guests over.

Indecisive.

... that or you have somehow only seen 2 movies.

I'll bite. Clueless. What is the joke?

A gamer and a marvel fan? Get out as quickly as possible.

This comment came in at the same time as yours and answers your question lol

imo after a certain age, you should have better role models than thanos and joker

and better taste in decor

Does it though? What indicates gamer? I think it's more about edginess and cringiness than marvel/gamer.

What indicates gamer? The joker since he's in some video games? He's more of a symbol of going against establishment and the grain. Of course he takes it too far and is cray cray

What was in it?

Which is just extra ironic

It's bad to like marvel movies?

what are the lyrics in english?

Not my cup of tea, but damn that just seems really judgemental.

Oh ok, you're purposefully being obtuse about this then lol

Yeah the implication is that it's cringy.

Approximately 6 yo

It's a meme.

Dating is all about being judgmental - you're looking for someone that's compatible with you. A lot of people find idolizing the Joker and Thanos not compatible with them.

Can't tell if this is worse or better than my shit. How much worse are flags compared to this, most of them are fallout related none of them are WW1 or 2 related though I do want a Ukrainian anarchist flag.

Some more context (I dunno if Thanos really fits this, but all those words on his poster do…)

https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/literally-me-guys

Depicting Thanos as a role model is part of liking Marvel movies?

That does look more like a shitpost than something people who actually believe in that nonsense would put up.

Maybe he could borrow him his chin? What do you think Ash?

While I agree, characters in one frame comics like this aren't usually trying to be subtle or fly under the radar when demonstrating their values.

Giving up too easily. Surely you've watched more than 2 movies, or series, or books, or YouTube channels, or video or board games..

Joker because balatro

Outside of memes I genuinely don't know anything about Thanos. Is he good or bad? What does him being on a poster mean

What is wrong about gaming and marvel? I don't really know much about marvel, gaming is surely such a wide thing how can that be a problem at all?

Fun fact I been using some variant of vaultdweller 13 as a username since I was 12 since I played NV fell in love and then played 1 and 2 and got an isometric rpg addiction. Sadly unlike other classic Fallout fans I am neither a Slavic millennial or trans so I have little to distract from the isometric rpg withdrawal symptoms.

I married a man who likes Dragon Ball Z enough to have several of the mangas, so don't get me wrong here. Some of this stuff doesn't necessarily bother me personally, but there's a certain reputation that fans of the Joker get and picking Thanos of all the Marvel characters is a choice.

Gaming is hit or miss - if someone is into gaming so much that all of their decorations are gaming related, it begs the question if they are willing to make enough time in their life for you around their hobby. And I say this as a gamer myself. It's known to be a hobby that people dedicate a lot of time toward.

Sounds like you got free reign on decorating the house, win win

An unexpected, but pleasant surprise!

My ex had very strong opinions about how our house should look - strong enough to push all of my wants out of the way - so this is a nice soft place to be in the aftermath :)

In a recent Marvel movie arc, he tries to "save" the universe from suffering and conflict and insufficient space/resources by indiscriminately deleting half of all life in the universe with a snap of his fingers using a super powerful artifact.

At least gamers have a hobby. I know a few people that just don't have anything.

19 years later, I don't fuckin remember. He probably had emptied it and put in a clean bag before I came over, statistically!

I did not take it as a comment on me! Or him, as he had the trashcan. And other qualities! It was mostly silly on my part, but it did inform me he thought about guests.

Oh I totally agree! I'm a gamer as well. It can be a deal breaker for some though. That's all.

"In the end, we didn't fuck"

I remember going to a convention the year after The Dark Knight came out and there were so many dudes dressed up as Nurse Joker and I can't help but think that many of them were just aching for the opportunity to do a little cross-dressing.

And in the comic books he tried to do it to get laid. He's really not a role model in any form

Sometimes being judgemental is okay. Calling someone out for idolizing mentally unstable murderers is justified.

Feel like if it was mussolini or Trump this would be the message. It's a cartoon character. Anyway, this thread is starting to feel silly. Thought I was missing the joke, I guess it just isn't resonating.

You know anti-heros aren't villains... They come on a spectrum. Hans Solo, and Humphrey Boguart in Casa Blanca were also anti-heros.

Nothing wrong with anit-heros.

"Fight" and then take all his beer. Simpow as.

I didn't recognize it but that's because I forgot I read an article on this guy. Probably because he is forgettable. In fact I think this is at least the third time I'm reading about him and then forgetting he existed. Pop artist 60 years late to the pop art party, seem trying to get Beeple level attention but only willing to put Jeff Koons level effort into it. Annoyingly, with much success.

So now knowing who it is, that's the third strike that sells the comic. He only has one figurine on display, and he probably wants to make an impression, so he thinks this one by a 'cool subversive contemporary artist' makes him look grown-up and a man of culture.

Damn, maybe you found your alternative career if the current one fails!

Maybe it is genetic. My uncle did interior design for a living. To be honest, it was both difficult and easy at the same time because I knew what kinda colors I liked but needed to pick a scheme that said "responsible adult you want to fuck". What's hilarious is that my partner and I am not home decorator people. Current home is definitely not something you'd see in a magazine. It was easy to spruce up a little studio apartment, more effort when the space is a lot bigger lol

I don't think so. I think most people would have difficulty claiming they actually felt particularly warm or particularly liked their 50th on that list.

By that point it would probably just be "shows I don't think are badly made". But also, different shows can mean different things to different people. That's Stuart Hall's encoding, decoding model of media consumption.... and like Anita Saarkesian says: "It's both possible, and even necessary, to simultaneously enjoy media while also being critical of its more problematic or pernicious aspects."

So I think a lot of media theory disagrees with you... and a lot of the time people only "like" media because of the age they were when it was released, or what was going on in their lives when they watched it.
