Being in love with a computer was seen as comically absurd 20 years ago

>>149486821 (OP)
No it wasn't.

>>149486844
Counterproof?

>>149486853
The literal hundreds of sci-fi novels and stories about men falling in love with robots or androids.

>>149486862
>slop genre fiction as counterproof
>in the 90s
You've mistaken geeks for people. Common enough, but try not to do it again.

>>149486894
Slop or not, it still shows that there was a zeitgeist that considered the concept seriously and not exclusively comical. In either case we are just seeing another "mouse eating the elephant" scenario with counter cultures becoming the predominate in western society.

>>149486894
>>in the 90s
And the 80s, 70s and even 60s pulp

>>149486821 (OP)
Retard.

>>149486932
It going back that far does not make sci fi fans the general population.
>>149486920
Counterculture isn't dominant; there's just a lot of evil geeks around trying to shove their sick machine minds down everyone's throats. The moment you give people the less geeky option they take it; see the success of Love Island at a time when there is nothing else but the geek's beloved prestige TV dramas on. Therefore even if you make the claim that geeks are more accepted than they were before (which is foolish) the implication of saying they are a counterculture proves that it was not a commonly held belief at the time.

>the implication of saying they are a counterculture proves that it was not a commonly held belief at the time.
But the contention here is that it was seen as only comedic and the implication it is ridiculous that today it is not. As I stated it is clear that this is not the case and your example is explicitly a comedic kids cartoon where just about every concept will be used in some comedic fashion regardless of whether they are consider serious or not.

>>149486983
>considered*

>>149486983
The stereotypical nerd that wants to fuck a computer is a joke, yes

>>149486990
No the joke is that Plankton is so pathetic that he had to create wife, not that it was a sterotype.

>>149486821 (OP)
I assure you she hasn't a brain and she hasn't a heart
And her chips would feel no pain if you took her apart
And she'll never know good from bad, or black from white
And she'll never know happy from sad, or wrong from right

She's nothing but diodes, capacitors, and resistors
Interconnections, and transistors
Jammed together like canned sardines, thousands of teeny-tiny machines, printed on microscopic strips...

... called, chips.

>>149487142
Damn this guy fell off

>>149486996
And that's comedically absurd. You must be from a culture where all of the funny guys were executed or deported by the various caesars and despots.

>>149487173
>that's comedically absurd
Yes, much like Squidward's misanthropy and depressive outlook on life. If that is comedic in the show does that mean as a whole it is seen as comedic outside the show? Of course not. Besides you suggested Plankton is a sterotype of nerds who fall in love with computers and pointed out that is not the punchline, not that it was not comedic. If you can't understand the context of the joke or even the nuance that comes from humor I don't think you should be slinging stones in a glass house.

>and I* pointed out

SHUT UP AND POST COMPUSSY

>>149487235
>Nut inside her so hard her screen turns to static or blue screens

>>149486821 (OP)
I'm still waiting on the episode where Plankton builds her a humanoid non-stick-on-wheels body.

>>149487246
I mean he kinda did

>>149487235
This is just a computer head on a grey woman's body.

>>149487274
And? Your point being?

>>149487289
It's lazy and safe. At least do something with
>>149487257

>>149487301
Don't tempt me. Most of those kind of pieces are just outright NSFW for a blue board while >>149487235 and >>149487289 are merely suggestive

>>149487329
That is too nice for this board

A lot of metal fuckers were offended by this

>>149487327
I read this in his voice

>>149487343
You're exactly right.

>>149487329
how sweet.

>>149487146
Not that anon, but fuck you idiot guy. Max always makes highly polished works and has made tons of short films and full-on series all by himself. He never fell off. No animator can even dream of touching his greatness.

>>149487235

>>149489976
>max whiteknight comes to save his favourite streamer and suck him off
He's a lazy closeted homosexual that fell off. I am sorry but this is the truth.

>>149490023
You are a silly man who says nonsensical and untrue things.

>>149490036
But very FUNNY things :)

>>149487329
This is very good. I like it.

>>149486821 (OP)
>plankton has such NEGATIVE BITCHES he had to build his own
>it's a literal fucking Karen that nags and bitches at him a la Honeymooners
imagine if he made Karen with big fat fuckin' fish titties lmfao what would he even do with them he's 99% hot gas

It still is, in spite of 4chan incels telling you otherwise

>>149491367
She's his soulmate because she loves him for how evil and pathetic he is

>>149491957
Yeah, he built a woman with the perfect amount of evil. Plankton is definitely a good inventor when he isn't doing it in service of stealing The Formuler

>>149486821 (OP)
as if you wouldn't if you could

>>149486821 (OP)
It still is.

>>149486996
I would too

when did karen even become an actual character

this scenario will be possible within our lifetime and see it happen on the streets.
