General Chat: The Smashening

Listen iT next time you post a selfie via your tablet, please frown. That way we don't have to tilt our heads 180 degrees to know you're happy about it. This is well known upside down selfie etiquette and you should really know about it by now.

Ok that image looks upside down to me, what about you guys???

It looks invisible to me because my phone is shitty and hasn't managed to load it yet.

nononono see

now you've got the angry eyes

you have to look down

by which I mean, up

I wish I had photoshop on this PC...

edit: i did a thign

EOIN WHAT HAVE YOU DONE

thats what you need to do to upside down photos its in the rulebook

now we need to double-photoshop it so that it's right way around but we flip the smile so it's a frown again

Has anyone ever seen that internet joke, well, less of a joke and more of a thing that happened: some dude on (can't remember: craigslist, bodybuilding.com, 4chan?? something anyway) a site was asking ladies to PM him pictures of their ladybits, and to encourage it he posted a photo of him pulling up his shirt to his neck and showing off his muscles.

And then somebody did publically; they showed a picture of two, you knows, and he was all "sweet, more please"

And it turned out they'd just cropped and flipped a picture of his chest. It was pretty funny. I'd link it but I have no idea what to google for it. Anyway what I did must have been pretty shocking to warrant a first-name. Eh.


In other news, Smogon are (with good reason) suspect testing Aegislash.
In other other news, did you know, when you post your password here, the forum censors it and shows it as stars to everyone else? See: *********** no fear you guys can't see it

So if you accidentally wrote your password in some sort of context it could be easily guessable? Like if my password was "password" then y'all could break into my account? :0

Yes I suppose that would be the case. But it's pretty rare that, say, *********** (hehehe) would come up in conversation, especially if you had a cypher or special characters in it.

Oh no, I am not falling for this again.

...again, mr Hunter2???

wait really? so if i type k1risam3 you wont be able to see it? wow i didnt think the forums were so smart and able to detect it id think you were lying but it worked for you so i believe it

I am so conflicted.

Edit: second-hand congrats for the win, OJ! I was kinda rooting for Germany but I wouldn't take that to the bank since I didn't realise it was the final until after it had ended... Whoops :B

oh yeah, that world cup... thing. i couldnt give less of a shit about soccer honestly hehe

anyway i hate to spam multiple threads but would anyone be willing to trade me their articuno or moltres super quick? need it for dex completion and it'll be impossible to get one off the gts so i resort to a bunch of shady people i met over the internet, obviously.

Thanks, while I personally don't care too much about football, I admit that I was still excited and was happy when we won. Except people were way too loud and I was tired and had a headache, not the best combination...

iT, if you haven't gotten Arcticuno by Friday, I'll go and catch mine and trade it to you for your dex.

iT, you DID SR for your Zapdos, right??

Best OU legendary available in this generation with a guaranteed 3 perfect IVs... please, please tell me you spent some time SRing it?

(this is like that thing where your mom tells you to eat all of your vegetables because there are people dying that don't have vegetables. I'll die if you don't metaphorically get a good Zapdos. Do you want to be my cause of death iT??? I hope not!!!

I should eat vegetables!!!!!!)

Spoiler:

d_what:

I did SR for Zapdos, I got one with HP, Spe, SpA IVS. I forget what the nature is, I think it might just be serious. I didn't really want to push my luck haha

OJ you are the Coolest Dude. You get an invisible medal of awesome. It is invisible. Like me.

So. Ummm.

Is fire emblem really that popular?? I missed the very start of the reveal and had to play the whole thing without sound so I feel I missed a lot, but from what I gather... wow that's a lot of Fire Emblem Characters??

Not that I believe they do a thing where "if x is in, y is out" unless they play very very similarly, but still, wow. Now I kinda want more Pokemon, because flagship.
And maybe, somewhere down the line, in a future smash game where we can have 12 Mario-specific characters and nobody minds, Bowser Jr. I wanna be a brat and throw paint.

I MISSED THE ENTIRE THING, MY INTERNET CRAPPED OUT ON ME LIKE. THE SECOND IT STARTED. WHAT HAPPENED, WHO'S CONFIRMED???

Well, I'd link it, but it's just... ON the smash bros site. Can't really miss it. 

Eh what the hell.

I mean, are we REALLY SURE

Spoiler:

not just an alternate costume of

Spoiler:

I mean come on that was TOTALLY [that character's] side-down-b [the new one] was using. [They] play either identically or really similarly and I'm inclined to think it's just a well-done reskin.

It IS that popular, at least after Awakening.

Spoiler:

oh and on other news

literally released like at the same time as the character announcement happened
you're really on a roll arent ya nintendo

Uhhhh spark, I think Chrom IS in it? They just faked him out for a bit. He's there at the end.

Which I'm taking to mean since Falcon and Chrom didn't get an *official* intro, Game & Watch is confirmed too.

I CAN REACH EVERY SITE THAT ISNT THE OFFICIAL SMASH BROS SITE FOR NO PARTICULAR REASON, WHAT THE HELL
