@vcgriffin Lovecraft was a terrible racist, and that was reflective in his writing, but I still really like Lovecraft if only because his actual storytelling craft and prose were excellent. I think it's possible to enjoy certain aspects of the arts you enjoy while also acknowledging problematic aspects that they may carry.

@vcgriffin It tends to happen when you write a lot in the genre that he writes in. I've just found that lots of his books (especially his newer ones) don't do as compelling a job of conveying pacing and atmosphere to me as his standout titles.

@vcgriffin He's just following lovecrafts example
-
@vcgriffin Yeah, it's a pretty intense novel! I haven't liked everything I've read by Stephen King but Misery is definitely my favourite by him.

@vcgriffin You're not going to see him until 2016

@vcgriffin I've played more than enough good 3DS games to justify my purchase, even as rarely as I play games at all nowadays. I'll grant that Splatoon is the only thing that's really hooked me on Wii U so far, but I'd dare say it's so good it can singlehandedly justify getting one.

@vcgriffin Yes. I can instruct Siri, or dial through the touchscreen, and conduct the entire conversation through the mic and speaker built into the device.

@vcgriffin Hey man, there's plenty of crossdressing Spike if you know where to look.

@vcgriffin I wouldn't say that the film was that horrible. Great visuals and cinematography but overall it was very average for a dumb action film.

@vcgriffin What could ever replace the durability of magnetic tape?

@vcgriffin You're right, there's definitely a clear conflict of interests in terms of how we define the term, which is probably because even the term "brony" is already incredibly connotative. I don't align with the prospect of "brony culture" as an extension of the term "brony", which as I discussed in my previous post is really more of a contrived identity complex than an actual method of engagement with media. I certainly agree with your sandpit analogy too, e100 was very clearly submissive to that prospect of "brony culture", which has sort of become an entirely separate mentality of viewing the show. @thelastgherkin made a great post here http://rainbowdash.net/notice/3940825 about demographic that I think really rings true for this conversation.
