There's an episode of Aladdin where the bad guy is a godlike cat creature. The good guys claim that he's going to lose because Aladdin has plot armor, so the cat creates his own Aladdin to also take advantage of the plot armor.

is this show available anywhere? I looked years ago and couldn't find it.

I know it wasn't quite as good as the movies, but it had it's own whacky charm to it. It was very clear the writers had no direction and going batshit insane crazy with it. I'd love to watch it again as an adult

people get hilariously, irrationally pissed if you kill off the main character
that's why


Even so, writers need to write better rather than having luck, coincidence, or plot armor save a character.

Sometimes things get so lazy that the show or movie will just cut away, but because the camera wasn't there to film the character escape the seemingly impossible scenario we left them in its up to the audience to come up with an excuse. Like "We wrote this person into this horrible situation, you figure out how they got out, we can't be bothered to"

"What did you want them to do, just kill of a main character?"

No, I obviously wanted them to write a show/movie better such that characters live and die based on their strengths and wits, not luck and whether or not they are a main character.

How do so many people not get what the criticism of "Plot Armor" is meant to address?

No part of the circuitry of the drive itself is going to be in any of the artistic part. Meaning it's not like they got wires going up in the ears or the teeth, that's not how these things work. It's going to be basically a rectangle in this plastic or whatever case, get a box cutter and carefully remove the nose you'll be able to see inside and see what is safe to remove.

Unless you are going to return it, but if you want to try to make it work then that's kinda the only way.

Yeah, I'd like barely wake up but not really and just fall right back asleep. I'm feeling moderately depressed lately and every time I could have woke up I was just like "no, I like sleep better". I think I got up at some point during the night to use the bathroom quick. But aside from that I was asleep the whole time.

Pro tip if you've ever once said any of the following you have lost your right to argue that it's not offensive:

-Nazis have a right to free speech
-Nazis have a right to assemble
-they can do whatever as long as they aren't hurting anyone
-Antifa is as bad as/ worse than Nazis
-hitting Nazis makes you as bad/ worse than them
-Antifa are the real fascists

All of those phrases give room for white nationalists and the like to openly operate as well as denying the very real threat they pose, the harm they've done, and what rhetoric they espouse. In doing so, you've allowed them to co-opt otherwise harmless things under the guise of plausible deniability, and as such they've been able to openly use these signals. Even if it IS "just a prank, bro" the intent is still there, and it's to offend. Kind of hard to defend something being offensive for the sake of being offensive unless your humor is at the level of a 12 year old.

So yeah, in the future maybe don't let racists openly operate and then you won't have to worry about your pranks being associated with racists.


Doesn't everybody have the right to free speech?


pretty much. IIRC even back during ww2 days or right after I can't recall we allowed a nazi party to form in this country. they never got any traction naturally but we allowed it. I personally don't like the idea of nazi's or white supremacists getting any traction, but I also don't like the idea of picking and choosing who has a right to free speech or not.

edit: does depend on what exactly they are saying though I guess, if they are literally saying they plan to kill people, thats something that needs to get shut down.


Yeah I don't think anybody defends planning or threatening violence.

A lot of the time I'd tell them I was a trans girl so I wouldnt feel like I was lieing completely.


I will never understand people who convince themselves it's more acceptable to be trans than gay.

I don't know how true these studies are (I am 100% certain if they're not accurate someone on CE will correct me), but if they're accurate the majority of trans kids end up just being regular gay people when they grow up:
http://www.sexologytoday.org/2016/01/do-trans-kids-stay-trans-when-they-grow_99.html?m=1
In total, there have been three large scale follow-up studies and a handful of smaller ones. I have listed all of them below, together with their results. (In the table, cis- means non-transsexual.) Despite the differences in country, culture, decade, and follow-up length and method, all the studies have come to a remarkably similar conclusion: Only very few trans- kids still want to transition by the time they are adults. Instead, they generally turn out to be regular gay or lesbian folks. The exact number varies by study, but roughly 6090% of trans- kids turn out no longer to be trans by adulthood.


Being trans and gay have nothing to do with each other. I have a trans friend who still prefers women but always felt like she was a woman. And I have a gay friend who was going to dress as a woman for his wedding, but his husband got pissed and said I'm attracted to men, why would I want you to dress as a woman?


The TC literally pretended to be trans because he was uncomfortable addressing his gayness.


No TC pretended to be trans so he wasn't tricking guys as much, if you are a guy pretending to be a woman online you are tricking straight guys for heterosexual attention but if you say you are trans you are at least indicating you are not biologically female but that you are also interested in them.

It seemed like TC was trying to be gay online, without requiring that the guys giving him interest needed to be gay, but also while not pretending to be fully biologically a female.

Dexter is worse in quality but better in entertainment.

It wasn't just jumping the shark it was doing barrel rolls over the shark over and over.

GoT still has better dialogue, better directing, better acting, more likeable characters, and better plot (barely) but that's just because the plot of Dexter had become such a joke.
