    There was uproar about The Spiderowman one but that wasn't cancelled. Absolute madness!

    One of my favourite Youtubers can explain it better than I can. But basically her pose was too sexual! It was also for a Variant cover.

    But Spider-Man posed like that a decade ago also for a variant, as the guy said in the video..... Damned SJW's getting their knickers in a fecking twist.

    People are so easily offended these days, i mean i don't see anything wrong with the Batgirl variant cover, hell if anything it's a throwback of sorts to Batman: The Killing Joke.

    Good lord, i need a cigarette & coffee before i burst a blood vessel

    As an aside, I really dislike the term "SJW" 'tis like nails on a chalkboard

    I've been called it plenty myself, and it's seriously such a nonsense term that's just used as a catch-all for anyone left/liberal leaning. :o

    Eeep, I'll have to see what date it is because I'm away the weekend of the 24th and 25th. I'll definitely see what I can do.

    No, I don't apply the term SJW-Social Justice Warrior-to anyone like that. If you believe in stuff like equal rights and stuff then grand, you can call yourself a feminist, a MRA, an egalitarian I don't really care (anymore). However, when you start trying to get rights for groups by subjugating another group (usually straight, white cis males because they are helped by "The Patriarchy") then I give you that term.

    I'm of the belief that equal rights means everyone is equal, not that we want to be equal in the ways we are currently less than equal but keep all our privileges and areas in which we are more equal. No, just no.

    Sorry for the rant guys!

    Well the stupid person who coined it, deserves a shovel smack or 10.

    Just my opinion obviously.

    I think a better way to describe the morons who call them SJW's is "white knights". Timeless, but classy and lets me know to bring the big can opener.

    ANNNNNDDDD the beers thread is up! Feel free to knock yourself out suggesting a location, we'll get the date down after. I'd suggest the 22nd/23rd or 29th/30th for it! But yeah, anyway, public service announcement done!
