I mean every time I’ve heard that “Quirked up white boy” line the person saying it was being very sarcastic so I just have a negative connotation for the whole phrase. Also while quirky and unique may not inherently be insults they are very susceptible to tone and growing up parents and family often used it as a replacement for worse words so I have a very negative personal association with the word.

2024-10-07 04:42:33 +0000 UTCWhite guys are not used to compliments. They don't know how to handle positive feedback. Recommend starting small like capability of making decent smash potatos.

2024-09-09 10:04:59 +0000 UTCIIRC Hirsch said this episode was meant to be earlier in the season pre-ford or even in season 1. I can't remember what was important enough they decided to add it in anyway, though I believe it was just 'hey we need more time to do some episodes' cause of the weird stuff happening. So a lotta people felt this was out of place and bad because of timing. Which would make sense.

2024-09-02 05:26:01 +0000 UTCNo, people are fine with you celebrating white cultural heritage as long as it's separated from bigotry- when people criticize "whiteness" and "white pride", it's not hating on someone for celebrating their Dutch heritage, it's about the exclusionary bigotry of "they're not really white" (see history of Italian and Irish immigrants, and this kind of sentiment still remains in many groups) and the behavior/rhetoric associated with (the sad prevalence) of white supremacy hate groups (any racial or cultural supremacy movement should be met with the same vitriol) If you have people in your life that act bigoted towards you for just being white, you need to hang out around better people

2024-09-01 21:33:23 +0000 UTCI saw the message of the episode more as be careful of what you teach and about honesty. Cause you can talk to girls without leading them on or faking falls interest. Friendship between boys and girls is completely possible, so the issue wasn't that dipper flirted it was that he lied. If he hadn't lied no one would have gotten hurt. Be careful about what you teach causr gruncle stan was definitely in the wrong. Kids and teens don't have the same mental maturity as adults, so it's very easy for them to misinterpret things. So it's very important what you teach and the way you phrase things. Also no matter your initial goals, hurting other people's feelings is not ok. It's ok if you wanna learn how to talk to girls, but that's doable without hurting anyones feelings.

2024-09-01 17:01:00 +0000 UTCIt objectively is a slur. I'd love to see an argument for how it isn't, because I can disprove it with a thing called historical reference. If you want, I can even go in-depth on how the origins of the word makes it a derogatory slur. Up to you.

2024-09-01 16:11:41 +0000 UTCOn Alicia dating advice segment: I've been given similar advice on confidence up front, but I didn't know what I should be confident about, and it felt like false advertising and trying to pull one over on the lady by "tricking" them into thinking I'm different than I am. So I've never really learned the lesson xD

2024-09-01 15:52:43 +0000 UTCThis is honestly my least favorite episode of Gravity Falls, and the only one I view as a bad one. The moral is supposed to be that it isn't okay to go after women and view them as objects to satisfy yourself, but that is not at all how it is portrayed with either Stan or Dipper. With Stan, it was very clearly a fling with no strings attached, and with Dipper, it was to boost his confidence. He pretty reasonably didn't think he was ever going to see any of these girls(except for Candy) ever again, and it really comes across as an act of God moment when they all just so happened to be in the same place at the same time. With Candy, it was very clearly one-sided perpetrated by Candy, and Dipper wasn't comfortable with her. Yet she kept pushing herself onto him and making things even more awkward. If the roles were reversed, I think people would have much more of a problem with a Dipper pushing himself onto a Candy who wanted nothing to do with him. And what Stan was teaching Dipper was not bad-as Alicia mentioned, hookups aren't bad as long as they are consenting(although we can question teaching children about hookups, but that was not what the episode was focused on). Plus, Dipper really needed the confidence and to move on from Wendy. It really comes across as the writers had a poorly thought-out agenda that they wanted to push for this episode, and wanted to push fear into any young boys with the spider lady's comment about always having a meal as long as there were men who used women. It's just an out of nowhere meanspirited message that really caught me by surprise on my first viewing.

2024-09-01 14:37:01 +0000 UTCThat's rich coming from a person using a slur that was SPECIFICALLY made to call white people out for acting black. I am not reducing ANYONE to their race. My problem is the hypocrisy of people in this community for shaming Silver Blade for having absolutely valid complaints about being reduced to his race. Such behavior should never be tolerated in a community that prides itself on inclusivity.
Loink
2024-09-01 13:55:17 +0000 UTCThe only people reducing people to their race are you.

2024-09-01 09:05:06 +0000 UTCThis thread is so cringe. Being reduced to your race is something that everyone faces. And yet it's only okay because you're white? So much for being inclusive when you'll treat minorities by their character but reduce white people to their race on a whim. Also gross how comfortable people here are with using racial slurs with hateful connotations on you which just feeds back to what I said before. Those guys in particular are cringe. Reducing people to their race is shameful, but what is even more shameful is condemning people for taking issue with that. It was frustrating to see Alicia not recognize that as that was my issue with what she said(and I'm sure others did too). You are incredibly valid in your complaints, and ignore what these people tell you.

2024-08-31 22:03:21 +0000 UTCAlex Hirsch said in response to Dipcifica that they're too young for romance, which I would totally respect if it weren't for the fact that half the episodes of the show have a romance subplot lol.

2024-08-31 18:56:38 +0000 UTCI've heard a few people hate/complain about this episode because by and large it is a side story to the main plot that is now ramping up. But honestly I love this episode because it is a time for the family and friends to have some fun. It kind of raps up a bit of the emotion. Also Ford got all of last episode, so it is nice to have a more Stan focused episode.
YukoValis
2024-08-31 18:44:05 +0000 UTCAs a Dipcifica fan, this episode was torture. How can they set up this whole thing between them in that one episode, yet not mention her once in the episode dedicated to Dipper finding someone new 😭. Tho tbf I think I did hear somewhere that the creators didn’t think of them that way until they saw the fans shipping them, which they then responded to by giving us more dipcifica content in the books and stuff. Regardless, I’m starving lol

2024-08-31 17:27:53 +0000 UTCI'm quirky and some people just think I'm livin' in a whole 'nother world cuz they don't understand humor with more than one layer and don't even bother getting to actually know me. I've been to groups where everyone other than the one person who knew me thought I was his super weird friend.... Or maybe I am? Does anyone relate? ..... Damn sry for venting here 😅😅

2024-08-31 17:23:55 +0000 UTCI know you asked whether someone would want to fuck a racist. But 2 of my normal lines are "Fuck Racism" and "Fuck Racists", it might be changing up the meaning a bit, but it isn't that wrong.

2024-08-31 16:03:02 +0000 UTCThat's a lot to expect from a 12 year old boy that's being surrounded by multiple people. Couple that with the fact he was just starting to build some confidence with people, there's no way he could think that through. It's funny, I think dipper would have had an easier time being surrounded by monsters than girls.
Sam Smith
2024-08-31 15:57:41 +0000 UTCI’m pretty sure, as far as I understand it anyway, the “quirked up” phrase just fell out of fashion and now it’s tacky. Lived it’s natural lifespan of less than half a decade, just like yolo.
Sam Brown
2024-08-31 15:44:52 +0000 UTCHere's a fun tidbit: Emily Cicierega did a storyboard for a different version of the end-credits scene that didn't get approved, but was really hilarious. It goes like: Soos is rolling in the corn, making crop-circle like formations that say "I'M BORED." A passing helicopter sees the message. "Quick, that guy's bored!" the co-pilot says. They swoop down to Soos, and hand him a children's activity book that says "MAZE FUN" and then fly away. Soos says "Oh sweet, I love mazes." End scene.

2024-08-31 14:38:40 +0000 UTC40:22 sorta a community thing since the women in question who Vegas-married Stan and about 24 hours later disappears after swiping all of his stuff was named Marilyn Rosenstein. And in The Owl House episode Yesterday's Lie we see Eda goes by the name Marilyn whenever she visits Earth.
Elias Cristerna
2024-08-31 14:19:20 +0000 UTCIt's not confirmed, but it's HEAVILY implied that Eda is Stan's ex. In Journal 3, the real book, it's revealed that Stan was married to a woman named Marilyn for six hours in Vegas, and Eda goes by Marylin in the human realm. Also, in an in-character commentary track for the Season 1 episode Land Before Swine, Stan describes his ex-wife as having a sharp tooth, large hair, and a shirt that reads "over thirty and flirty", which is written on Eda's Apple Blood mug.

2024-08-31 14:17:48 +0000 UTCOh because white pride is so openly encouraged in this day and age? And no I don't wish it to be, let people's characters stand for themselves... but then minorities tie their identities to their heritage and white people are hated if they do... hypocrisy. Again I don't wish to be able to, I just think others doing so but berating others for doing so is problematic.

2024-08-31 14:13:00 +0000 UTCBro, as a cracker myself: stfu literally go outside and talk to people. This isn't cute or endearing; it's cringe. Even from a progressive stance, it's cringe. You are literally being embarrassing to be associated with.
