knowing there can still be fringe cases of insanity in any group and that they dont define most of us and thinking youre probably the crazies youre talking about if you sincerely subscribe to the idea that a single lunatic is indicative of the general population =/= insisting that everyone here is perfectly sane and functioning

i hope this was helpful for you

that specific kind of arrogant tough guy character who's cruel and pervy, who's presented without irony as the protagonist or funny/beloved sidekick. characters who disagree with him and/or think he's gross are the butt of the joke, portrayed as uptight or humorless, etc

adding a footnote that this guy can be interesting, but only if he isn't always right and getting what he wants

"trolls" - the characters that spend almost their entire screen time insulting, mocking, and antagonizing others and get away with it via plot armor or characters just inexplicably rolling with it.

most troll players aren't clever enough to make their character's antagonism at least funny, and generally won't let other characters react how most people would to constant needling.

branching off of this with a touch of the response under you, any kind of hypercompetent genius chessmaster/tactician whose whole bit in canon is always outsmarting their opponent and being x steps ahead

+1 forever. some people like to say this is an old trope that doesn't really exist anymore and i wish those people were right, but they're not even close

it can always be both

and it never ends in them touching each other's boobs and kissing so what's even the point

As someone who went through this recently with someone I thought was a friend, if you care please at least tell the person you are sorry and prove that to them. It hurts badly when you have invested in a friendship and got involved and then you are treated badly. I know I'll never get that feedback, but you could give it to someone else and maybe help them heal a little.

I've had this conversation so many times irl it didn't even strike me as a weeby trope tbh

you just need better canons

disagreeing with the notion that probably most dwrpers are basically sane is a self-own

the sameanoning is so pathetic in flatview

this place always affectionately makes me think of this scene

nothing more pathetic in flatview than flatviewers themselves

anon said, fatly

if it's a dark or controversial headcanon that has no basis in canon itself? then no, don't do it.

yeah as someone with small boobs this is definitely a conversation i had at more than one point during middle school. it's hard not to be insecure when your body is changing in general and your classmates are getting boobs and you aren't.

da, +0.5

there's definitely like, an otaku veneer over it when you see it in some jp media, but it's not like it comes from nothing. i've definitely had these conversations, too.

the problem is less conversations about boobs and more the shape that conversation takes that makes it annoying.

from the other end of the spectrum and honestly wasn't even thinking as far back as middle school

when you have big boobs people will bring them up constantly

as a large chested teenager, it was constantly brought up. so much so that my nickname was either 'hooters' or 'tits mcgee/tits (lastname)'. i had grown adult men commenting on my breasts when i was 14. having tits as a teenager = being a slut/whore (even though i was a virgin until 18.)

trust me, i would have loved to have had 'normal' boobs or a smaller chest as a teen. i got way too much unwanted attention by both peers and adults.

as someone who also had large tits as a teenager, i would rather have the small boobs problem. at least then i wouldn't have had the added health issues that came with my back and shoulder pains because I couldn't afford decent bras that supported my chest properly. my pain was so bad that i was able to get reduction surgery with my insurance, but then had people acting like i was ~so crazy for not feeling so blessed~ over my large tits.

sorry but unless you can afford surgery or won the genetic lottery, large boobs aren't even that attractive when you can actually see them outside of clothes. mine had gross stretch marks, veins all over, and sagged to my belly button without a bra. it made me feel incredibly disgusting, disproportionate, and insecure with my body. getting that reduction surgery was one of the best decisions i ever made in my life and my only regret was not getting the doctor to make them even smaller.

i also got a reduction, but i got mine post baby and i was at a ridiculous size (h) and even now when i mention that i had a reduction, people look at what i still have and go "... really???" i wish they'd taken off more too. it also didn't help much with my back pain but i think that has more to do with me being in a lot of accidents/trauma than just boob related stuff. but yeah, bras? i had to get a social worker to write up a letter for my assistance when i was 18 because i couldn't afford one single bra that was actually sized properly for me. everything i bought dug grooves into my shoulders or broke or was cheap and i had to wear three of.

between the physical pain of large tits, the sexualization of others because of large tits, and having to battle for reduction surgery... boobs are a pain in the everywhere. i'd love a c cup.

The Nice Guy (tm) who ends up with the character he (or in some instances she, let's be equal in the annoyance) is in love/infatuated with because he refuses to accept no for an answer and continues to pursue that person. Even worse when the writer is unironically on this character's side and the courtship is depicted as a sweet/positive/pure thing and "[recipient] will come around eventually" to accept their affection. Often, they do indeed end up together, despite how a situation like this would, in reality, likely end with some sort of restraining order or at least the recipient being all the more turned off by Nice Guy.

A TV show airing recently in my area had such a character and my first thought was "omg it's 2022, how has writing not progressed past this." nobody takes local tv very seriously in these parts.

I've thought about it because I do genuinely hope they're doing all right, and I would 100% understand if they ignored or said "nah", as well. I don't want to cause them stress by reaching out if it would do that, which is why I've also been hesitant.

I'll think about it a little more though, thanks anon. :)

size h, more like size holy shit! that made me wince for you, anon. :( most places don't carry bras beyond size d, and it's so awful when you're poor because at that point you need to special order, and that shit is expensive.

i don't think people take into consideration that boobs are just blobs of fat that weighs like shit, so you're actually walking around with something that weighs as heavy as a watermelon on your chest. having that constant weight hanging in front of you without proper support is a kind of pain i don't wish on anyone, unless they're stupid enough to get surgery for it.

c cup was what i went down to. best thing was being able to not have to wear a bra when i am home, and not dealing with so much pain from the deep grooves in my shoulders anymore. but there are times where i wish i had gone down to a b. my tits have always been numb so i get literally no pleasure out of having them in any way.
