[(Anonymous)]

Yeah. Though people like him are exactly why I have no desire to read Homestuck.

[(Anonymous)]

Tolkien was very racist and sexist. Just FYI. Also he used archetypes from folk stories from other countries. LoTR isn't some holy book that nothing can be compared to. You're the reason why people won't read LoTRs.

[(Anonymous)]

Tolkien never went around to the book clubs of his day being a total dick to everyone just to see what would happen.

[(Anonymous)]

OH my god you poor child. Yes, Tolkien kind did. Tolkien could be a grade A asshole.

[(Anonymous)]

Proof or tits, bro.

[(Anonymous)]

Sorry, but I'm not breaking the spines on my books to show you. Look up CS Lewis and Tolkien and their book club.

[(Anonymous)]

Then I'm going to take that as your admission of "I'm making shit up now to be right on the internet" and go with my first assumption that you're a dumbass =D

[(Anonymous)]

So you don't know how to look things up on the internet that's not on wiki or urban dictionary? That's sad. But seriously. Not breaking my book just to scan pages you won't read in. I care more about my books than what you think of me.

[(Anonymous)]

You're the one who made the assertion. If your response when asked for backup is "I'm too lazy, go look it up yourself", then I'm going just going to assume you're making it up. Because if I should be able to Google it in 5 minutes, then so can you without having to scan any books. If you won't even bother with that, then I'm going to assume there's nothing to research.

[diet_poison]

I don't want to damage my property =/= I'm lazy

I don't want to take half an hour to show you what you could figure out in five minutes =/= I'm lazy

[(Anonymous)]

Do you have to like knee your book in its spine to take a shitty cell-phone picture of the paragraph you're referring to?

Either way, it's irrelevant. Tolkien's pretty damn dead and the original comenter never had to deal with him, unlike how they have to deal with the homestuck creator/fandom right now.

[(Anonymous)]

The burden of proof is on the person who made the argument. It's not reasonable to say, "I am right, but I won't demonstrate why."

[chardmonster]

You mean Tolkien was an early twentieth century British male academic?

Oh my god

Oh my god

Next you'll reveal that sometimes the artist behind Tintin drew nonwhite characters in a SOMEWHAT SCANDALOUS MANNER

If there's one thing I've learned from my study of history it's that we must never read anything with oldtimey racism in it because this is how you defeat racism, never encountering it ever.

Also I find it hard to believe that the guy who wrote Eowen is very sexist in the context of EARLY TWENTIETH CENTURY BRITISH ACADEMICS

[(Anonymous)]

Hey idiot, I think they are pointing out that calling Hussie racist while being all "LORD OF THE RINGS IS PERFECT" is kind stupid.

[chardmonster]

Hey moron, I think the conversation's progressed past that.

[(Anonymous)]

No, I brought up Tolkien being racist and sexist because people like over looking that and the main reason we're all talking about Hussie right now is the 'omg racism' angel. I wanted to point out that LoTRs isn't perfect and that people are not committing some kind of unholy blasphemy by comparing things you don't like to it. Seriously. It's a good story, but its just a book. And really I wouldn't compare Homestuck to Tolkien anyways, for a great deal of reasons. I just dislike it when people act like you cannot compare anything to it. I'm sorry I upset you so greatly.

[chardmonster]

You really didn't.

I'm saying you can't compare the two because they're entirely different genres with entirely different subject matters. It's like comparing some random Russian symphony to some random Red Hot Chilli Peppers song. Both are good, neither are holy, but any comparison is going to be pretty nonsensical.

[insanenoodlyguy]

In all seriousness, I was simply going for the comparison of one long thing to another. Hussie always said he meant to make it all sequential. So only reading the first week of the comic (which unlike most webcomics is about 50 pages or so) or less and saying you gave it a try is about the same as abandoning a long tome in the first chapter or two because you are bored with the world building.

[(Anonymous)]

But if you're bored, then you're bored. If the first chapter bores me, then no, I'm probably not going to continue because I'm not seeing any reason to.

"You didn't try hard enough to like it" is not the way you get people to give something a second shot. It's obnoxious and pushy.

[diet_poison]

Because a story = its fandom right?

I mean I'm not saying you *have* to read Homestuck and nobody is losing any sleep over you not reading it. But disliking it because of intentional trolls in the fandom is silly. You don't even have to interact with the fandom at all, whether you read the comic or not.

(The reason I don't like LotR isn't because of pretentious fans like you. It's because I think Tolkein's writing sucks. And I don't complain when other people talk about it or say why they like it ffs, I just don't engage in it myself because it does not interest me)

[(Anonymous)]

Shut up, brony bitch.

[(Anonymous)]

I prefer the brony bitch. At least she can string together more than 4 words in a row. Oh yeah, and I guess you learned how to copy & paste, too. Good on ya, trolly.

[insanenoodlyguy]

Do not lump the likes of me and this together. This is a hater, not a troll.

[(Anonymous)]

Shut up, brony bitch.

[(Anonymous)]

You let other people dictate whether you try out or enjoy a piece of media? That must really suck.
