Bad UI design concept: a game that uses descriptive terms rather than numeric rankings for its graphics quality levels, and lists them in alphabetical order. Just make ‘em guess whether “Beautiful” better or worse than “Fantastic”.

I want to flood your home with Blackberry jam.

Set the default resolution based on the width of the Windows desktop, rather than the width of any individual display. Running dual HD monitors? The game launches in a 4K window.

(For bonus points, arrange the options screen so that the resolution selector falls in the lower half of the viewport, rendering it inaccessible if the window is taller than the screen.)

I’m going to come into your home and move everything a couple of centimeters to the left.

Separate volume controls for music, SFX and dialogue, but the combat chatter is on the SFX channel rather than the dialogue channel.

I shall reupholster all your furniture with coarsely spun burlap.

A minimap that rotates to match the direction your character is currently facing even though the overhead camera’s orientation is fixed dead north.

no threat here but the last one would lead to me facing north every time I want to figure out the map exactly like I do every single time I have to figure out a paper map.

Some dude bro on the internet talking about the new She-Ra reboot: Ugh SJWs are taking over cartoons and making them all preachy. I hate it when shows try to push an agenda on kids. Why can’t they be like they used to be, you know?

Original He-Man, looking straight at the audience: We had a lot of fun here today, but you know what isn’t fun? Judging others based on how they look. Not liking a person because he or she is a different race or religion is wrong. Also, plant a tree, and don’t do drugs.

Lou Scheimer was born to a German Jewish family and believed that his cartoons had a responsibility to teach children kindness and respect for everybody.

Back then there were also MILITANT divides between “boy’s” and “girl’s” entertainment but when he found out He-Man had at least a small following of little girls he pitched the concept of He-Man’s sister She-Ra and was insistent she be as tough a warrior as her brother. He saw that girls actually did like “scary” sword and sorcery and had a WHOLE NEW FUCKING SHOW made so they could feel acknowledged and have a heroine to look up to with her very own series.

Later he would help design a whole new sci-fi fantasy setting with the most creative control he ever had, Bravestarr, and was adamant that the hero be a Native American man, the first ever in a starring role on a kid’s action show. He also wanted Bravestarr to be a positive role model by being a patient, gentle, soft spoken man who abhors violence and avoids using guns at all costs.

These cartoons are remembered as schlocky toy commercials and they ARE entertaining that way but real love went into them by a guy who wanted kids to grow up more sensitive and caring. Some of these same geeks crying about THE SJW’S were raised by even more bluntly progressive media than we’ve almost ever had and they didn’t even know it.
