[ Anon Meme ]

[case]

F!S Anon Meme (the Seventh, and now on DW!)

Secrets, rants, opinions, anything you want to say about your fandom or a fandom or fandom in general, do it here! Anonymously, of course. Get it all off your chest.

Some ground rules:
1. Going anon is encouraged but not absolutely required (for those who struggle with captchas and stuff).
2. No autoplaying/autolooping embeds, or embeds that cover/stretch the screen.
3. No dropping personal info or IRL contact info, etc.

That's about it, though!

I'll be linking some general/general-fandom threads I see so people don't repost new threads with the same stuff.

Unpopular Ships
Obligatory Masturbation Thread
Fandoms you wish existed
How old are you?
What series have you always meant to watch/read/play/etc. but have never?
Time and location
Female-centric works
How do you feel about Tumblr?
Pet thread
Guilty pleasure thread
Favorite old shows
First fandom?

Re: Yamino gonna make it worse again

[(Anonymous)]

nayrt but

Let me guess. You're a) twelve years old and b) actually believe the Bronies who claim that South Park "made up" the word derp and that it never existed before then. You know, in that episode in which a bunch of South Park dudes started saying "herp herp a derp" because they were supposed to SOUND LIKE THEY WERE RETARDED. Nope, that has nothing to do with mocking people with disabilities at all!

Here's a hint: "Derp" and "Derpy" were around for at least a decade before South Park used the word "derp."

Slang existed before the internet, you know.

And yes, "derp" originated as a term to mock people with disabilities.

I tried to say this last time this came up on F!S. I was told I shouldn't take offense because it wasn't made up for me personally.

What, this one? I'm not seeing the inherent slam against disabilities in a bunch of non-affected nonsense speech meant to mock the interchangeable stupidity of Rob Schneider movies.

Re: Yamino gonna make it worse again

It's not non-affected. And the point of that joke isn't just that Rob Schneider makes interchangeable movies, but that he's an idiot too. I mean come on, he even says "derpee derpee dumb." Ha ha, Rob Schneider is retarded.

Look, when you want to mock somebody for always saying or doing the same thing, you use "blah blah blah" or "yadda yadda yadda" or whatever. But when you want to mock somebody and imply that they're a moron as well, you use "herrr derrr" or "herp derp" or "duuuuuhhhhhh". And why do we use that speech to imply that somebody's an idiot? Because that's also the speech used to mock and impersonate people with cognitive (and sometimes other) disabilities. So when you impersonate somebody with "herp derp" or "duuuuuhhhhhh" then it's the same as calling them retarded. Trey Parker and Matt Stone understand this. That's why they used "derp derp dumb" to mock Rob Schneider. That's why the joke works.

I can't believe I actually have to explain the jokes in South Park to somebody, but here we are.
