In case anyone wants to know how aggressively, stubbornly, willfully ignorant conservatives are, and how much they'll absolutely refuse to engage with anything outside of white American bullshit, my father has now essentially forced me to watch Squid Game for the third time, but this time in the stupid English dub, simply because he ran out of excuses not to watch it and decided to now go with "oh I heard the English dub is bad, and I don't feel like reading sub titles because I'm lazy as fuck, even though I have closed captioning on 24/7 anyway because I'm deaf as a fucking doorknob but refuse to admit it so I never go to the doctor to get hearing aids SO ITS NOT EVEN LIKE I WOULD BE ABLE TO HEAR THE GODDAMN ACTORS SPEAKING IN KOREAN ANYWAY."
So I told him that if I- someone who is universally known to hate dubs and love subtitles- can make it through the entire show with the English dub on, he'd have to watch it too, because goddamnit I can be stubborn, too!!! .....so, ok, he hasnt ~forced~ me to watch it in English, per se, but this is the fucking hill I'm gonna die on, ok? I'm making him either admit he doesnt wanna watch it simply because its a Korean show and he's a racist piece of shit, or force him to suck it the fuck up and watch it.
He LOVES the Battle Royale trope, by the way. Its one of his favorite genres of books/movies. The literal only goddamn reason he's not watching it is because its South Korean, and I saw him ranting on Facebook about how "The Asians(TM)" are tryna "infiltrate our media" and "recruit and brainwash white American children" with K-pop and media like Squid Game..."BRAINWASH" THE AMERICAN YOUTH TO DO WHAT, FATHER? LISTEN TO OVERLY CUTSEY POP MUSIC? "RECRUIT" US TO DO WHAT? HATE THE RICH? NEWFLASH, ASSHOLE, WE ALREADY DO BOTH THOSE THINGS.
So yeah. This is the hill I'm dying on. I'm watching this fucking show for the third time. I'm suffering through the literal worst English dubbing I've ever heard. And I WILL get this man to watch it. And then I shall sit back and soak in the glory as he comes crawling to me a month from now to admit how good of a goddamn show it is. Until then, wish me luck that my ears wont start bleeding lol

ERMAGERD thats a hard 1… I think I wuld say coontails cuz they r the perf addition to any other hairstyle and the stripez r so kewl.. its DIVERSE!
5. Gloomy bear or Hello Kitty?
decisions decisions… 2 B honest I did not kno of gloomy bear until a while ago and hello kitty is a pretty prevalent part of sum kids childhoods but teh fact that gloomy bear is essentially an antithesis against the swarm of tame famileh frendly animal mascots is rlly dope 2 me… FITE THE SYSTEM GLOOMY XD

YES oh my gaga have I told yu guys that teh invader zim/revenge msi animation i sed I wuz gonna do is in progress rn!? I’m so excited 2 show it 2 u guyz when it’s done!!!! mi favorite character is dib bcuz we share an interest in conspiracy paranormal bullshitt or sumthing wut wuuuuut. NO mom i will NOT take off my tin foil hat at the dinner table god.
11. Have you played Gaia?
Oh gosh maybe 1 time when I wuz 10 but the controls were far 2 confusing 4 me DX don’t take my word 4 it though around the same age I dabbled in neopetting & I was liek nothing is even freaking working this game is overrated!!! :/ but my computer didn’t even have flash turned on LAWL I wuz a dumb kid o(@~@)o
i had a frend who used 2 play gaia so it wasn’t impossible 4 me to learn teh ropes but this wuz during that precious (NOT!!!) time were every1 was calling each other gaiafags and I wuz like…. commence slowly walking backwards XD
21. Do you watch Anime?
ok I watch it in the sense that like, I have stuck a pin in a million animes being liek ONE day i will watch u pinky promise okay ONE OF DESE DAYS. I liked watching nge, elfen lied, perfect blue, osomatsu, and serial experiments lain a lot… do sonic x, my life me, code lyoko, & other psuedo animes count?? I had way 2 many boners for fake anime shit growing up. I also had this super intense lucky star phase when I wuz 12 too liek I did not shut up on facebook about it i swear a golden star sticker to every1 who stuck through everytime I updated my status to ‘KONATA RULEZ’ forreal. I also really like pretty cure max heart 2 this day, I watched the korean dub alllll the time as a baby. I also watched a ton of crayon shin chan even though it’s liek, explicitly not 4 kids :O
Animes that I actually plan on watching r paranoia agent, flcl, shadow star narutaru, and armitage III. Apparently shadow star is this show thats specifically made 2 look like the digimon/pokemon/wutevermon style but it actually gets really disturbing and gorey later on… it was written by the cereal experiments lain guy!!
30. Do you like Furbies?
O i didn’t rlly tap into the furby craze when it was still alive and thriving so i never had one for myself… they sound soo cute as a concept but i remember this time where this kid brought her furby on teh school bus and it got shook up 2 much and it basically got furby rabies!??!??! liek it was foaming at teh beak and its eyes were rolling around and making a noize like HNNGFNFGRF so ya kinda crazy in action … don’t get meh started on i-dogs tho !!
