These guys deserve some recognition for making me laugh harder than I've laughed for a while.

***NOTE: They do contain explicit gore and if you know you shouldn't probably watch it, don't.

    Is this a prosperity thread or is it just to tell people about it who live under a rock?

    Also, anyone actually notice they sell these DVDs at target <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Christ, they do? Target of all places? Isn't that targeting the wrong demographic?

    Anyway, pretty much everyone has seen these things at one point or another. But I don't think it has ever been posted here. But then again, I'm to lazy to search.

    Oh my God. I'm sure every middle age mother in the US absolutely loves seeing these in their Target stores. Then again, that is only if they recognize it for what it is. Kinda hard to realize that something called Happy Tree Friends is about merciless violence and incessant gore. (Disregarding the First Blood and Second Serving part of the titles that is.)

    I'm guessing that because the usefulness of this thread has passed, it'll probably be locked soon.

    harsh deletion there, and you didnt even lock the thread after eliminating its point wooh WTH is wrong with you today? as for the cartoons, they show on mtv quite regularly Im sure you could apply said channel to a lot of the posters in this forums and as such may well be relevent :X

    Meh, always hated HTF and RAB. They try to replace comedy with obscenity, and it doesn't work.

    Without that link, this thread is but a barren wasteland of despair. All that is left is to await the lock. thelockthelockthelockthelockthelockthelockthelockohgoditshere

    ANYWAY, I was never a fan of HTF. Too bloody for me. Slightly ironic, coming from the person who plays FPSes left and right, but it's just boring. (The valentine's card, I predicted EVERY. SINGLE. METHOD. of death. I saw the arrows, thought "Hmm...they'll fly off the screen and get her in the back." they proceeded to do so, and I got bored.)
  • Cold_NiTeCold_NiTe Join Date: 2003-09-15 Member: 20875Members
    Yeah something about that much obscenity, vulgarity and violence in one plays just kills off any chance of it truly being funny for me. I can still laugh at a lot of it, but it just isn't my kind of humour. I mean, even if we are gamers we have limits just as any non gamer would. Gore in video games doesn't really equate because more often than not we don't care or really don't pay any notice to it. Those few games that make a big deal about gore usually don't have anything else going for them that make them worth playing.

    But I am really quite surprised that the link was taken out. I mean, Penny Arcade is often vulgar and bloody (though I still find that funny because it has a certain amount of truth to most of what they say) but they are not ousted from here. Honestly I think this deserves a recount... erm or rather that the mod should reconsider removing the link. Since it is a link and even has a disclaimer, anyone not wishing to see it can always stay away.

    i watched the first 2 movies of these

    i am utterly disturbed... i cant find it funny at all... just a lot of spontaneous combusting and branches ripping heads clean off....

    As noted. If someone needs to post a warning or disclaimer, they should think twice about posting it here.

    Oh no, that has swearing in it, better nuke that too.

    I see no reason why something like happy tree friends can't be posted provided it has a warning. I've seen things equally bad (if not worse) posted here in the past, or are we suddenly stepping up our "think of the children!" campaign? Come on, its HAPPY TREE FRIENDS.

    As doom said, this is a sad day for the forums.

    Happy Tree Friends links deserve to be nuked to save people from the sheer retarded crap that those animations are. Nuking it should be considered a public service.

    I've always chafed a bit against the semi-applied PG-10 rating of the forums.


    edit: Then again, it's not like these forums are related to anything violent like marines getting ripped apart by aliens or anything

    Give it time. The Mod Signal has been lit over Off-Topic City, and now we just need Moderator Man to come in his Modmobile.

    They don't rip them apart, they just knock them out, Pokemon style. Honest.
