AHHHH I'M TRAPPED IN A PERFECT WORLD WHERE ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE AND I DON'T HAVE TO PAY TAXES OR WORK EVER AGAIN NOOOOOOOO!!!!!
>>151218661And forced to work with people she hates, while living under the constant threat of abstraction which would effectively be death for her.
>>151218661How many times are you gonna make this thread where you get the same answer?
>>151218683how many times are you gonna give the same answer?
>>151218661Without the ability to have sex or masturbate? Yeah, I think it's obvious why people go crazy there.
>>151218661
>>151218702Because it's the only one you need
>>151218661And you can't have sex, but I doubt that would be a big loss for an incel like OP
This is how migrants view the west
>>151218797This is the fatal flaw with summer camps, or at least the ones I went to. Are there any that are like Camp Lazlo or some shit where the campers can do whatever they want when they want to?
>>151218830They do have a pointMigrant work is shit pay, shit living conditions, and shit life in general with no hope of it getting better
Imagine being the only one with a cock in there. You could fuck all of their smooth nothings.
>>151218863Not reallyAt that point the camp is more of a day care if there's no activities or field trips Might as well just given them tablets and leave them in a room with a cameraThe most camps will give is recess where the kids run around in an area
>>151218864>Migrant work is shit pay, shit living conditions, and shit life in general with no hope of it getting betterOnly to priviliged westoids. Billions of people can and do kill to get the life that American poor lament.
>>151218863That's literally not how Summer Camps work.
>>151218889They're fighting for more wage slavery then Job security means jack shit if you don't have a family to support
>>151218661>perfect worldIt's not.>anything is possibleYou can't cum.>don't have to pay taxes or workGot me there. Still can't have sex or swear uncensored. You may as well join a Shaker community...
>>151218797literally how demons were born
>>151218887>if summer camps don't force campers to do their designated activity during their designated hour, they might as well not offer the activities...........................
>>151218661>perfect world>no sex
>>151218863Definitely rewatch Camp Lazlo. They technically weren't allowed to do whatever they want, they had camp activities and chores and stuff. Lumpus was just a lazy piece of shit that made Slinkman handle all the day activities, which gets coupled with Jelly Cabin getting themselves into random adventures more often than not.
>>151218797Remember when this comic used to be good?
>>151218678>while living under the constant threat of abstraction which would effectively be death for herDoesn't mean much. You're already under constant threat of death. That's just life. You go through XX years of meaningful existence and it's all erased in an instant by a slippery floor or what have you.
>>151218966I don't get what you're trying to sayThe point of a summer camp is to have a place where kids have activities to do
>>151219026The abstracted characters are still conscious.
>>151219060Okay, so if you don't want them staring at TikTok all day, just take their phone and put them in what's essentially a giant playground full of other kids to interact with. Did your elementary school teachers break up your recesses into 5-minute periods during which you were supposed to exclusively use the swingset, monkey bars, slide, blacktop, etc.? No? So why the fuck do summer camps need to do that shit?
Do their bodies also disappear from the real world when entering the circus? Like there's no welfare check officers looking for anyone or reporting they went missing?
>>151219251Because if the kids just fuck around all day, how are you gonna convince parents to pay for it? Fucking around at home is free.Besides, you need to keep the brats stimulated somehow, leave them to their own devices too much and you end up with lawsuits.
>>151218661Rage bait thread
>>151219283The twist is 100% gonna be that they're copies. The real pomni put on the headset, got disoriented by a bright flash, shook it off and went on with her day.
>>151219422>He was never Alec Holland.
>>151219422kino
>>151218661>Stuck in an existential dread with a serious of footnotes for "friends" wherein a deluded AI makes you go on adventures that likely and frequently hurt but yay, no taxesAre you a spastic?
>>151218661I dont think everyone would love being trapped in circus but you'd think at some point, the only people left would be those who are a little too happy to be stuck there.
If Caine was programmed better, TADC would be paradise. But even eternity gets boring after a while. Drugs would help
>>151218661>t.
>>151220064The fact that the characters didn't treat the stupid sauce as some reprehensible thing and instead hoarded it for use during downtime is so far my favorite detail of the entire series.
>>151218661Anon the truth is we live in a world where people are afraid to be sincere. We can’t just have TADC be a goofy, imaginative, fun little adventure show that pushes the envelope of computer animation. That is WAY too sincere. No, instead we need to have it layered with irony and metahumor because thats cool! We need characters to act like assholes to eachother and acknowledge it because it’s cool! We need the place to SUUUUUCKS and they wanna leave but not really because real life sucks too because it’s COOL! You will NEVER get a genre like cute girls doing cute things in the west because in the west doing either of the two is considered an infringement on their very way of life. To westeners to live is to be disgusting, cruel, and selfish to your fellow man. Anyone who tries to be more is considered artificial and thus disposable. And that’s why Ragatha is such a problem in the world of TADC. She’s traditional femininity. The bane of both the western man AND western woman. The idea of a person, a woman even, wishing to be selfless, polite, and friendly to their fellow man has become blasphemy. Better to stay a disgusting, cynical, self-serving hedonist but be self aware about it so you can seem more intelligent to the other sows following the same behavior. Welcome to the post-Christianity world anon. Hopefully the pendulum will swing, but I honestly doubt it will.
>>151218661AHHHH I REMEMBER WHAT REAL LIFE WAS LIKE BY THE WAY AND ALSO I WASN'T A COWARD I HAD A YOUTUBE CHANNEL WHERE I UPLOADED VIDEOS OF MYSELF EXPLORING ABANDONED BUILDINGS
>>151218661There has to be a reason why all these specific people were chosen to be stuck in the circus, because each one of them seems to have a crappy life IRL
>>151219461He truly is amazing, isn’t he?
>>151219422Which makes the whole thing was completely pointless and they should had just been wacky characters from the start
>>151223225Explain
>>151223225Could be worse, imagine if Pomni returned to the real world at the end of the series, then like 5 years later Goose announces a sequel where Pomni returns to the Digital Circus but then Caine's unseen sister tries to use digital backups of Pomni to get rid of her, then a backup of Pomni kills real Pomni like in pic and we return to the original status quo.
>>151218863If you don't oversaturate people and let them rest for too long, they may develop independent thoughts.
>>151218661>A PERFECT WORLD
>>151218996Yes, I remember the first issue.
>>151219138and apparently violent
>>151219422So basically the plot of Crosscode?
>>151218661>TRAPPEDSee, that's the thing. People struggle with comprehending the idea of eternity, the idea of being locked into something forever with no way out and no end. No release, or death, or anything. Try to imagine going to bed and having a dream where everything is unfamiliar and you know you don't belong there, before eventually realizing you haven't woken up, and you can't wake up, and will never wake up, and you will never be anywhere you do belong ever again. Would this feel "good" to you?
>>151218977they can't masturbate either, so it's actually a perfect world for sexual perverts, cause they'll just develop an orgasm-denial fetish.
>>151218678I think the only one anyone in there hates is Jax (and Caine). The rest of the 'co-workers' are all chill. If Jax wasn't there, they'd all just cooperate with each other, I think.
>>151224371>you will never be anywhere you do belong ever again. Would this feel "good" to you?I think the problem with that argument arises when you realize an awful lot of people already feel they don't belong in the real world, Anon. This is the same reason isekai fantasies are so popular in Japan. In current year there are an ever increasing number of people who do actually hate reality and their real lives and wouldn't miss them. There are a lot of potential causes and things to blame for that, but no amount of soul-searching changes the fact that people feel that way.
>>151218863kind ofI went to a boy scout camp where there was a schedule (when to wake up, report for role call, eat, etc.) and you had to sign up for merit badge classes (of your choice), but outside of those classes you were allowed to play games, go to the ranges, go kayaking, basically anything that was open. it wasn't total freedom but for a few hours each day you could do whatever you wanted.
>>151224371Look man, I'm not saying I'm gonna pull the trigger but the only difference between that and the real world for a lot of people is just that there's no exist in the digital circus but the ringmaster AI at least makes an effort to try to accommodate your existence as best he can.
>>151218979Wasn't it structured kind of like how >>151225211 described, except with special events once a week or so instead of merit badge classes?
>>151221874>And that’s why Ragatha is such a problem in the world of TADC. She’s traditional femininityNo she's trying too hard to please people she's faking her interactions with
>>151218702
>It's a "Zooble talks about how trans she is" episode
>>151226123I thought she was supposed to be a lesbian before reading TADC threads here and finding out about the creator.
>>151224368Only if the digital clones get to meet their originals.
>>151218661You wouldn't get it
>>151218661Can I tear "her" apart?
>>151218661Relatable
so do they remember what gender they were?
>>151227380>they
>>151218678Abstraction is a suicide metaphor, it's not something that's just going to appear one day and kill you like a bad cold. When it happens, it'll be a choice.It's surprising to me that so many people don't pick up on that when we had an entire episode about Gangle masking, getting closer and closer to abstraction, until she starts to walk out onto the street to get hit by a bus, then Pomni stops her and reminds her that there are people who genuinely care about her. The whole THEME of the show is about making people feel wanted, reminding people of that human connection that's so easily lost when you let your insecurities take over.Anyway, back on topic, OP should just lock himself in a prison if he's so okay with being trapped somewhere he doesn't have to pay taxes.
>>151228353Yes anon, the multiple characters of TADC, plural. What should people call the collective of those characters to avoid the tranny living rent free in your head, "the hes and shes"?
>>151228360>abstracting is a choiceNobody would commit suicide if they knew what awaited them was an eternity in a black void alone with their thoughts.
>>151218661>can't die>can never cum again>subject to the whims of an AI foreverIn what universe is this perfect?
Why does this post make so many people genuinely angry?
>>151228432Firstly, that's just straight up wrong. Suicide is not a logical decision, nobody pushed that far is going to suddenly stop and go 'actually, maybe committing suicide isn't the smart thing to do.' Secondly, do we even know if the abstractions still 'think?' I know Queenie had a moment of clarity immediately after her abstraction, but it's implied that everyone else just becomes a mindless glitch monster. I don't have it on hand, but I do vaguely recall a Goose-post about how abstraction 'strips you of any individuality you had.' It's a Kars deal.
>>151228444You can't cum biologically, but if you get degenerate enough, you can orgams in some other ways.
>>151228432>with their thoughts.
>>151226123Episode 3?
>>151228399I know I'm sorry, I just couldn't resist the attempt at ragebait
>>151228485Well played I guess, Poe's law in full effect.
>>151228463This is the most genuinely autistic board on 4chan. Likely a quarter of the posters were in tard schools.
>>151218661>ANYTHING IS POSSIBLEIt seems like they can't leave the main hub unless Caine lets them. Which sounds very boring.
>>151219026>The threat of going insane and losing control over your mind "doesn't mean much"This generation is fried isn't it guys?
>>151218661She can't goon
AHHH I CAN'T REMEMBER MY NAME OR ANYTHING ELSE ABOUT MY PREVIOUS LIFE EXCEPT THAT I'M LEGALLY ALLOWED TO HAVE SEX IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA
>>151225693That's how it was in theory. Though the impression I got from the show was that a combination of Lumpus's apathy towards being a scout leader and Jelly Cabin wandering off on misadventures and needing to be dragged back means the times the campers actually do activities gets effectively halved.
>>151220064He was likely built in the 1990s.He's doing the best he can with the KILOBYTES he has to run with.
>>151228649Actually it's just their names they can't remember, multiple characters have shown that they remember other stuff about their lives.
>>151218996All they had to do, was not kill off Adult Gert CJ!
>>151218678>Friend with Ragatha, Zooble and Gangle>Has a crush on Jax>Respects KingerShe's doing fine, they are all a big family
>>151218797This is like how some people that play video games are obsessed with trophies, if you try to 100% every single game it stops being fun and it becomes just a chore
>>151224368Spoilers, anon.
>Be me.>Lucid dream often or have very long and vivid dreams.>Occasionally a TADC Dream, where every time I wake up it's due to Caine finding me and kicking me out.>Woke up ten minutes ago.

How many times do I have to tell you? You're not welcomed here.

" And he was all calm while saying it, like a disappointment abusive parent about to get the belt.>The belt ended up being me launched into the Void at Mach Fuck until I hit the screen.
>>151228757This.The premise of the show doesn't make sense if they can't remember their previous lives, because they wouldn't want to escape the Circus. The Circus would be all that they know, they wouldn't even be aware that they were trapped in it, or that the real world exists. The whole show falls apart and loses all horror if they can't remember who they used to be.It would be like waking up with amnesia, you wouldn't really know what was 'wrong' other than the fact that you have a missing past, which isn't really that scary.
>>151228895Epic. Thanks for sharing. I like reading dreams.
