    I too came here hoping comments would explain the fuck is going on. But, after reading the evasions and deflections, I feel like those steeped in internet are warning me off.

    “Turn back. Take interest in something more casual like Warhammer 40K or mechanical keyboards.”

      It’s not that bad. Like really at all. Verbalase, a youtube rap battle guy, spent an obscene amount of money on a commission. The Wonderbread thing is honestly not that interesting. The person who replied just commissioned a lot of art of blondes buying wonderbread because it reminded them of a particular part of their ex (and obviously some other fetish reason). The cheesegrater image is comparatively much worse, as an example.

    Unpopular opinion:

    Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss aren’t funny and are mostly immature “ha ha, people have sex and say cuss words and do bad things!!! funny!!!” type cringe humor.

    Both series mostly serve as Rule34 material, and that’s clear from character designs.

    So this is… not surprising.

    Also, it kills me to have this opinion on these shows because the character design is good (despite being cheesecakey), and the animation is often top notch. Too bad I can’t stand the fucking writing.

      Huh. I never really thought of the character designs from helluva boss (haven’t paid attention to the hotel) as being designed to be rule 34 stuff. Everything I’ve seen has the characters differing pretty wildly from their standard look in order to get the sexual characteristics.

        The furries went fucking nuts for Loona. There are over 16k images of her on e621 right now.

          I don’t deny that, at all. It’s just that everything I’ve seen of her basically throws the actual design out the window, and keeps only the coloring and canine bits. Maybe the hair and the goth clothing if the artist pays attention to details.

      I believe that anytime somebody says “don’t have sex” in some form, that says that the speaker is emotionally insufficiently capable of having a baby right now, so it says more about the speaker than about those having sex.

      It’s reassurance that my own lifestyle and my preference for spending time alone without falling in love with cartoon characters is healthier than my extrovert friends and family lead me to believe.

      I still don’t know they exist. I literally forgot both of the screen names I read like 30 seconds ago. And I’ll scroll away and forget I ever saw this. And I’ll be all the better for it.

    Honestly, though, there are rich people who waste waaay more money than that continuously.

    Consider a private jet for example. Or a yacht. Or some expensive shit like the stuff that elephants’ horns are made of. So this is way better in comparison.
