Vancouver Off-Topic / Current EventsThe off-topic forum for Vancouver, funnies, non-auto centered discussions, WORK SAFE. While the rules are more relaxed here, there are still rules. Please refer to sticky thread in this forum.
Around the internet it is becoming obvious, if you want to get rich and famous:
1. Act stupid
2. Do not create original characters
3. Aim low
Revscene people will probably just go: "You're jealous that your book sucks and nobody likes your art. Cry harder Jason!"
It goes deeper than that. Just the other day we had the Earl Marriot post:
The exact same type of fucking retard that will laugh at the above video and the scenes of food wasting and gratuitous violence are the same type to litter. In fact, those people will take the time to leave comments, like and share that video will be the same type to become a blight on nature and infect others with the same apathy towards having any class.
Basically, retardism.
The type of bro at a meet up that tells people he will fuck their head are the same type to vote this shit up.
Gentlemen, we are ever-increasingly surrounded by retards and YouTube is a hive of retardation.
Is VERY popular. 12 million views! Watch the video if you can. It is extremely graphic and horrific without any real plot. Millennials eat this shit up like crazy and make fucking morons rich.
Porn that I sell, especially the porn where 18-19 year old girls get throat fucked until they cry and end up with 4-5 cum loads on their faces at the end makes the most money.
There is almost no "middle class" art anymore. Who are the unsung heros of art? There are very few. Can anyone name any good bands from Vancouver? Certainly if they get any hits they don't stay here! Any good authors? When they film in Vancouver, it is never about Vancouver. There is no room in art(Vancouver) for a middle ground(class).
The upper classes of art are the Jay-Z's, the Seth MacFarlanes, the Iggy Igloos, the Drakes, Taylor Swifts, Madonnas.
I don't want to go off on a Charles in Charge tangent about the illuminati and mind control, buuuuuuuuuuuut... it does seem awfully convenient that today's art and media is so spoon-fed to people that you have to search out intelligent media and art.
The dumbest shit and the most popular shit is thrown so hard at your eyeballs that pop culture is impossible to avoid. If I were an asian parent I would totally try and keep my kids away from the ever-present "dumb white people" culture.

I want my 30 seconds back.
Also, 12 million views wtf

remember Jackass from MTV? i think that really gave a boost to the whole acting like idiots to earn $$$$ sure it's existed before the year 2000 but Jackass was probably the confirmation for networks/hollywood et al. that there was an easy recipe for $$$ and then there was the jersey shore that was the confirmation for the whole reality show bs
Look how many fucking retards continuously watched and shared that fucking piece of fuck ass shit garbage fuck song gangnam style and thought it was so fucking cool.
Look at nickleback.
Rebecca Black.
The pop culture society is full of mindless idiots who only do as they are told, which is why when something hits a certain level of popularity, people will like it because they are simply told to, or because it becomes easily recognizable.
1. Think of the median intelligence person you meet in a day.
2. Remember that 1/2 of the people you interact with are dumber than that person.
3. Simultaneously puke and cry with disgust about the world we have created.
4. Repeat tomorrow.

Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.
People rather watch a special on that fucking freak Bruce Jenner than watch somthing like Cosmos and learn somthing new.
Society needs to stop embracing freaks and promoting them as some train wreck side show. Anyone who watches TLC on a regular basis is somone who I don't want to converse with.

i LOVED this movie and thought it was great, but the evidence seems to suggest that on average, we're actually getting smarter and not dumber
of course pop culture will always appear low brow because it appeals to the lowest common denominator, but that doesn't mean much when regarding society as a whole

His cynicism and intelligence combined with a genuine concern for making the world a better place needs to be more common. Its a shame he was never a politician.

While I think its clear that humans have made advancements as time goes on, I think the intelligence gap is widening as much as the income gap. The extremes are further apart in my opinion. I have no definitive proof, although the fact that there is consideration to vote in another Bush as president is a good indicator as far as the U.S. goes.

Bill Gates, I believe, said that we're getting smarter, not dumber.
What metric is he basing that on?
I think, as a whole, we are getting dumber and more reliant on technology!
Since the middle class has been crushed so thoroughly people have less time to engage their minds. Instead people seek out instant-gratification rather than any sort of deeper meaning. Life becomes a reaction to a reaction from a reaction rather than observation, reflection and understanding.
Once my mask arrives to protect my anonymity I may make some YouTube videos, not to attack others but to discuss virtue VS vice in an age where vice is sooooooooooo cool.

that may be, its hard to scientifically determine any of those things of course.
however, we're living in an age where information and education are more accessible than affordable and ever. you can get free courses at any time from MIT or stanford, so hopefully that trend continues in order to close the gap.

is being reliant on technology actually a bad thing though
before if you had some beliefs/knowledge about a topic, it would be a pain in the ass to confirm it. now i can just hop on google and throw up 10000000+ scientific articles.
ideas can be shared and created faster and more "effectively" i dont see this as a negative.
and in terms of intellectual pursuits and vices/virtues that's more of a personal topic that is too complex to be discussed in a forum lol
You realize the word retard is generally considered the same as Nigger or Faggot right? If your insulting people try to do it in an intelligent way instead of dumbing yourself down and sinking to uneducated levels.
lotta intolerance in this thread from a bunch of people doing nothing about what they are bitching about.
Wanna stop these "retards" from getting rich off their videos quit watching them. The subject matter is fairly obvious. By watching your supporting by spreading it further your only supporting more. I love haters sums it up too when you bitch about it. All publicity is good publicity.
Just like modern music. The gluttons for crap arent the ones producing it but the ones looking for it, whatever the motive.
