Eh, I get it. Like those guys from Scrubs.

I really don't care that Badgerclops is emotional and sensitive (EVERY character is) but I just wish they would stop advertising him as super chill. Hes not that chill. Chill is boring.

I feel like Parker doesnt know what "chill" means because even back in the first Mao Mao clip ever, when Badgerclops was still Bearclops, he was described as "the chillest bear ever" but he was STILL sensitive in that video.

Badgerclops started breaking things the second that Adorabat told him to practice basic hygiene
He's not chill at all

>outright denies the Maoclops ship
How based can one cartoonist be?

>Ship what you like

Ok, I will. Thanks for the pointless post.

Think, Badgerclops has called himself chill dozens of times, but no-one else has said it once.

He was just being a contrarian because he thinks it makes him seem cool. Deep down, he does think Mao Mao is impressive, but doesn't want to admit it

I like that a lot. Not only are they besties, Badgerclops comes off as a gay best friend. Mao being emotionally intimate with a gay man is pretty cool.

Blue revels in violence during some episodes, but he doesnt participate

Basically. It feels directed at people who want them to be canonically dating and not people who think they just work together.

Why do you all desperately want Mao Mao and Badgerclops to be a gay couple?

Never shipped them anyway, good friendship is good

Why do people blame this on homophobia?
If anything, it's caused by acceptance of homosexuality being a normal everyday thing.
It's the Idea that men and wonen can't be just friends expanded to be genderless.

Because I find it cute. Next question.

I didn't want them necessairly to be a bonafide couple, but the prospects of Badgerclops having had a brief unrequited crush at some point (because he's the most flaming of the two) or some outside character referring to the two as "dads" to Adorabat were just too cute. Parker's comments seem to quash all of that. Not mad, it's his show, but it's just a little deflating

Because the people who cry for more representation, want to feel special forever. So they'll keep on making boogiemen to defeat to prove they're special.

No, its caused by the idea that you cant be too close or else youre gay and that must be avoided because nobody wants to look gay.

I wanted that Mao Mao and Badgerclops adopt Adorabat ending but this + Adorabat having an actual dad has ruined my hopes

You'll never escape that debate

>There are no prominent gay male couples on Cartoon Network
There are no prominent gay male couples on any modern children's cartoons period. No network would have the balls to pull one off. It's not worth it.

You know it won't.

absolutely based in a good way. Platonic male affection has been somewhat undermined over the years. But anyway this show is really good and funny. It's been so long since I actually enjoyed watching a modern cartoon

That's kinda different because they are brothers. I can't think of a pair of male best friends in a currently airing show who are as close as Badger and Mao
lmao

>Platonic male affection has been somewhat undermined over the years

Are you people serious, theres tons of shows where the main characters are close but not gay.

Platonic making out

lmaomao*

You don't want to look too close to women you're not interested in either.
Not because you're afraid to be seen as straight, but because that would make your relationship awkward.
Homophobia is a lot older than male alienation. You can't draw a line between the two that easily.

So where is Adoradad anyways? Bat lives and eats at the sheiff's department

Enjoying life with Adoramom with the front door locked.

I mean, I can't really think of a modern show like that. Gumball's the Darwin's brother, Steven has no male friends, Marco had no male friends, I dont think Ron had male friends either? Jack and the Scottsman respected eachother but weren't super close etc. I meant more in general though, the more time goes on the more people interpret friendly or platonically intimate male behavior as gay. Even movies from the 80s look gayer in the eyes of modern people

I think the Adorabat dad line was to generate discussion and help keep the show going, not that she actually has a family outside of the two.

I would believe that more if it was like, a tweet
But having her just straight up reference her dad in the actual show seems like pretty explicit confirmation

If you mean a show where they get as physically touchy feely as much as Badgerclops forces on MaoMao, no there isnt much.
If you mean you cant find a show where two male characters trust each other a lot, oh please. Try any Ho Yay page if you want a mix of both.

They're in a lifelong bromance, not a romance. The only difference is that their relationship isn't sexual, just intimate on a physical and emotional level. I respect Simmon's decision and intend to keep watching the show, because that's the sort of wholesomeness you rarely see.

What are you talking about user? Environmental activism has always been illegal. That might just be true tho.

What was the point of announcing that though?

Because he wants to make it known that their relationship is purely platonic love between two male friends. Something which you don't see very much in cartoons. It's actually a straight agenda and one that needs to be pushed more often. So go cry about it faggot.

I see nothing BUT that in cartoons with 2 male main characters. Even fucking Family Guy and South Park do that and theyve been on forever.

It wasn't even canon to begin with.

The fuck I just say then?

I wonder if Parker didn't realize how gay it was to have his two lead characters live with a child they take care of together

I thought you said that thats not what he said. Now youre saying "Yes that is what he said because straight agenda?" Guess you were wrong.

Who the fuck likes that piece of shit badger, he's literally the worst character and sidekick ever

Wait, wasn't that already done in Final Space with Avocato and Gary?

To keep Cartoon Network from noticing the Twitter archives, stumbling on some fan art, putting two and two together and yoinking the show. He doesn't have as much clout as Rebecca Sugar and even if he wanted to go ahead with yaoi, couldn't get away with it. Also not every close, physical male relationship has to be sexual or familial, and this kind of example does much to remove the cultural stigma towards "homo shit" in the next generation.

Nobody was honestly expecting a sexual makeout session between Badgerclops and Mao Mao, are you retarded? Also dont give me any "You know what the world finally needs that weve never had? Platonic friendship!" crap.

To preach that male intimacy needn't be perceived as inherently homoerotic, even though it's only perceived that way because it honestly kinda is. This is stigmatized because when men love themselves and each-other, you get a lot of great art and women can't vote.

Hips and happening.

They were never announced as gay though and called each other friends only in the show anyway, so it was already doing that.

Of course no-one was expecting it retard, but the IMPLICATION would've been more than enough to cancel because he's already on thin ice. All it takes is one angry soccer mom to get a Facebook boycott petition going and it's over. The culture is a fuckton more paranoid about homosexual male relationships, this way he's covering his bases. Not saying I do or don't agree with it, but I see why he made his decision and I'll stand by that.

Adorabat is cute, CUTE

Steve Purcell never made a "Sam and Max are just friends" tumblr post.

I really think the Yea Forums Twitter-cap has him paranoid.

You're about 10 years behind.
Nobody would dare protest against the depiction of gays now, or if they would they wouldn't be taken seriously.
I can imagine it being relevant for the foreign market though.

You're just hypothesizing. Honestly he likely just turned some of his fanbase off the show without replenishing it with anything. Making them gay outright would be a death sentence, but trying to go for a "middle ground" that really just pisses off one part of the fanbase and only mildly pleases the other while not drawing anybody NEW in isnt going to help. I guarantee you nobody is going to be like "I refused to watch this show because I thought Mao Mao was a fag but now that I know he just has a deep physical platonic friendship Im going to watch it!"
The most that type of person would do is go "lol fags btfo" and watch something else.

Oh god. Give it to me straight Yea Forums, this show ain't Yea Forumsmblr is it? This fanbase isn't swarmed with shippers, r-right?

>getting angry over two fictional characters not being a couple
what the fuck is this? does this always happen?

>badgerbat
does anybody even ships this?

It's that he decided to announce that the fans are wrong instead of just saying nothing.

why did he say something about that?

They're going to be showing it in Japan sooner or later, and some anime subfandoms aside, they're much less tolerant about that. Also, people are mostly fine with lesbianism but a pair of homosexuals with an adopted daughter might be a step too far.

Parker Simmons said he doesn't care about shipping, all he did was clarify that they're canonically not gay. I see why that's a make or break issue for so many but I really don't think it'd put a dent in the child fanbase Cartoon Network depends on whatsoever.

I dont know, I guess he thought the "Why does everything have to be gay now?" crowd was being too victimized and wanted to support them, even though CN has no important gay males.

See and . Personally, I'm happy he took a stand here but I really do think he jumped the gun.

>Parker Simmons said he doesn't care about shipping

Yet he made a tumblr post telling shippers theyre just friends anyway.

What's so wrong with confirming that they're only friends? No-one had a problem with shipping Finn and Jake even though it was obvious they only thought of themselves as close friends, and Badgerclops and Mao Mao have a similar dynamic.

What's wrong with just letting the damn fanbase think what they want to?

You sound mad bro

I think many people expected a depiction about gay couple on Cartoon Network, as like as Princess Bubblegum and Marceline.

It comes down to this.

Attached: 2d2.jpg (500x375, 45K)

Oh good, you gave up. Though you shouldve gave up while making your post about how Parker doesnt care about shipping in response to a tumblr post about shipping.

I hope this show never has a romantic subplot desu, but the tanuki character is getting me a bit worried.

Gave up on what? He said he doesn't care about shipping one way or another, he just outright confirmed their platonic relationship status instead of leaving it up in the air. Honestly, the honesty's refreshing.

Well duh, of course Mao Mao & Badgerclops aren't a couple. Cartoons don't do that, baiting people with two friends main character and then drop gay romance on top of it out of nowhere. Plus if the intend ever was to make them gay, none of the "gay" stuff would have been played for laughs.

That being said, yeah, Parker's thing about platonic friends blah blah being rare ons creen is kinda bullshit. If anything, there's a blatant lack of gay male main characters (and not gay as in "acts flamboyant", gay as in "has an on-screen boyfriend/husband") in animation that is only getting more insulting with each passing years, as every other sexuality/gender identity gets to have representation in media that isn't solely for adults *except* gay men.

I mean it's really telling when the only thing gay people have that they can relate to in the world of animation are platonic, heterosexual friends being framed as acting kinda gay-ish for laughs, isn't it? People complain all the time about "you can't even be FRIENDS anymore people will always say they're gay" but this shit probably wouldn't happen as much if we had actual gay characters to latch onto.

(not that it's Parker's fault or anything, obviously, he doesn't owe people gay couples)

That being said, two things: first, Mao Mao and Badgerclops not being a couple doesn't mean either of them could not eventually be canon gay so hey your other ships might be valid.

I like to think that the armor allows them to kind of become a mini-hivemind - like, their bodies aren't fused together, and they could separate if they wanted to, but it does seem like the snake head has some control over the body since they behave consistently with each others, so maybe the armor is letting them do that?

Not too much shipping, just the one that just sank.

Shipping was never about being right or wrong though. No need to be dramatic.

No, just the mystery. Part of the fun of shipping is trying to piece the puzzle together and figure it out. Parker essentially spoiled the ending. Of course, knowing this is also fun as a fan would like to know the creater's intentions.

I really just love this. It's goddamn hillarious to see tumblrtards SEETHING because they didn't get the characters they liked weren't fags. I commend Parker for not bowing down to them. It's just a goddamn gold mine. And it'll get even better if they confirm Tanya was Mao Mao's ex.

That counts as SEETHING?

So if the robot arm can just assimilate with needles and DNA coding thing, why would Badgerclops insist on cutting Adorabat's wing off to get one in No Shortcuts instead of using the spare for what it is?

>haha i'm just gonna pretend they're gay and married
>FUCKING FAGGOTS SEETHING HHAHAHAHA FUCKING OWWNED PARKER /OURGUY/ ARE YOU TRIGGERED YET

You're embarassing yourself.

He probably planned to give her an arm specifically suited to her body rather than give her a spare arm that's several times bigger than her entire body.

On the subject of the more tumblr leaning content: Angstfics. Now that Shin has come and gone and people hoping for more drama surrounding him and Mao have already started off disappointed, how about Badgerclops and his mommy issues? A chart showing he's popular making his mom not say some of the things he says to him implies that she's told him no one likes him. Winning a cooking competition seems to get a similar response which implies she's called him a loser. Mao Mao may have been neglected by his father, but Badgerclops may have gone through something worse with his mother.

40% yourself or we'll 60% you, tranny scum.

Not so much as this one, but more the way in general they're behaving. It's like watching an ape fling shit around. But this IS just plain out denial.

You cant have it both ways.

I guess it's more of the fact that they kept claiming about how it was totally canon and anyone who said otherwise was just denying, then Parker came and threw a bucket of cold water on their faces.

It was more irony, user.

Well, either way, it's fun. And usually in the internet when people say "Hillarious' they mean that it made them exhale through their nose.

And when they say "SEETHING" they mean...?

Outright denial, being angry that they didn't get their way, throwing out buzzwords, etc.

I'm not seeing the anger, just the disappointment and the denial is encouraged in "ship who you want". This is looking like an increasingly dumb thing to be excited about.

Denial? We all knew they were never going to actually be gay user, because CN doesnt allow homos. Im just confused as to why Parker felt the need to officially NO HOMO BRO it.

>badgermao shippers and gays aren't happy they get to stay the underrepresented victims they enjoy being so much
What's the problem exactly?

Well then you haven't been looking enough, user.

I'm gay and support the ship, but I understand that he wanted to make it canon that they're really good friends who cherish each other and are open with their feelings. All feelings but criticism of BC's hygiene and bangs.

It's kind of taking away the fun in teasing those fags whenever a badgermao moment is shown in an episode. It's obvious that they're not a gay couple, but now, those priceless jokes from scenes with this implication will fall flat.

Can't we all just continue the ship in good faith? If their friendship up until this point provided ship fuel it will continue to do so, the only difference being it's not canon but that hasn't stopped a ship before. No you're not allowed to use Parker as ammo to shoot down badgermao shipping since he said to ship as normal.

I can NOT wait for the episode about adorabat’s family. Mao Mao and Badgerclops freaking out “wait, you have PARENTS?! Why do you live with us?? Aren’t they worried about you?!”
Meeting her family, her parents are chill to a neglectful degree about adorabat’s decisions and perhaps a little frightened by her.
Maybe a few jokes about Mao and badger being like her two adoptive dads- or maybe they start projecting their own parental issues on adorabat’s parents (Mao trying desperately to impress dadbat, badger being terrified of upsetting mombat)

Oh fuck maybe Adorabat has siblings.

>Shows creator does the stupid thing of going "no they're straight"

Its not just that, he also that he has the nerve to say male friendship is "overdue." Fuck you Parker, go watch any Brian and Stewie episode of Family Guy or something, theres dozens of them.

Or the cobra has come kind of body snatching powers. He was able to take over ramaraffe’s eyes for a short while

I think he meant it in a fandom sense, since these days you cant have a fandom without every single character being shipped

Why? I remember a time not too long ago when media as a whole was different. Characters had a practically zero percent chance of ever having their relationships confirmed, and in some cases were canonically denied. Did this stop shippers? No! Shipping has always been about noticing character chemistry and inventing a fun little world where those feelings are portrayed in a romantic light. Expecting a confirmation for your ship in the show to justify your choice defeats the entire purpose, since the chemistry is there regardless. Badgermao scenes won't become less of what they are.

You're missing the part where he said AFFECTIONATE male relationships.

I never thought a day would come when I would respect the creator of SU more than MM. SU may be poorly written and not funny but at least Rebecca has never stepped up to say "Uhhhh theyre just friends guys, tv is overdue for friendship."

Like yeah, of course everything is shipping.
Shipping is an indication of people caring enough to "self insert" their fantasies

You want people to ship because it means they care enough to want to fantasize. And Simmons basically went "NO DON'T GET INVESTED IN MY SHOW THAT MUCH" which is hilarious. All he had to do was just play the fucking game and not say anything and he was too stupid to do that.

Attached: 56436547.jpg (1920x1080, 313K)

It's not very often that a creator of a show will go out of their to single a ship out as impossible. Sometimes within the show its obvious, yes, but this is like God himself telling shippers "No." Thats when it crosses from the line from "Its not happening but its fun to pretend" to "Well, I feel shit on."

green != red

This. Men aren't really allowed to be emotionally open or affectionate in society or else they're called gay. I don't see a problem in wanting to challenge that notion.

see It's about the characters first and foremost, the actual relationship status is secondary. As a straightfag, I thought Parker's post would have been taken in a more positive light, allowing people on both sides to continue to enjoy the characters without petty bickering over their true romantic interests. Instead it backfired, and his comment about "ship what you like" was totally ignored.

Which mostly xonsists of Badgerclops forcing a hug while Mao Mao looks pissed. The exceptions to this where Mao Mao doesnt seem to mind physical affection are the minority.

>his comment about "ship what you like" was totally ignored.

Because by the end of his post it changed from "Ship what you like, its just a show." to a snarky "You can ship what you want, but you're wasting your time if its Badgermao, theyre officially only friends."

>I remember a time when shipping wasn't a thing
Bull fucking shit. That's rose colored glasses. We've had shipping in Western Media for years, or does Gwen vs Mary Jane or Logan vs Scott not ring any bells.You had a fucking fan magazine where the term Mary Sue was fucking invented for Star Trek. You guys got fucking selective memory and it feels like it was less prevalent because there was no internet. Sure, authors like that dumb vampire author would quash fan works in the past but that didn't stop people, it just made them fucking less vocal till JK said "wait shit if I let them do this they will be more invested in my brand and want more"

Being cannon isn't the point of shipping, it's just a fun thing to do and ppl shouldn't care if it's canon or not

They remember a time when shipping wasn’t a thing because they were ten years old and didn’t spend their whole day on the internet

It doesn't matter if it's canon but it does matter if the creator basically says "you're dumb if you think this could ever happen"

You sure like putting words in his mouth.

You be surprise how much it matters to fans, especially fujoshit.

Can't even enjoy pairings or characters when it comes to things like characters who done questionably moral actions or things like Maorabat without being accused of pedophile.

>>I remember a time when shipping wasn't a thing
What the hell? That's like the opposite of what I said. I said shipping HAS been around forever, but creators confirming those ships or creating shows as shipbait (see: Star VS) wasn't commonplace. A confirmation or denial of a ship should not affect the ship itself in any significant way since ships are predominantly fanon.

Don't you have a twitter account to tend to? Parker isn't gonna get cancelled on here.

What? I didn't make that. Who the fuck are you? What the fuck are you on about? You just want attention probably.

Again, most ships arent noncanon both in AND out of the show. Creators do not do this. They do not announce that youre wrong. Kishimoto never made a blog post saying "You can ship who you want, but if youre shipping Naruto and Sasuke then LUL"

Man don’t be so sensitive. Parker’s a boomer on tumblr who got more heat than he expected for printing out a badgermao picture and taping it to his wall. He’s clearly okay with shipping art, but doesn’t want anyone to think liking a picture confirms something as hard canon

Pretty sure when Jhonen Vasquez gets asked about ZADR, he would say 'no'.

So nobody was singled out? We all know which ship the tumblr post was referring to user, apparently only you didn't get it.

>You can ship what you want, but canonically they're just friends because I wanted to make an affectionate platonic relationship between two men.
>You're can ship what you want but you're a fucking retard if you do and should kill yourself, you worthless faggot.

He probably thought it was better to rip the bandaid off now, rather than keeping it up in the air until a finale that neither confirms nor denies their relationship and possibly no season 2 to follow up. I respect his choice, even if for now it seems to be causing more harm than good. Hopefully everyone will settle down over time and badgermao will still be going strong.

Slightly off.
Men are allowed to be open emotionally, but there's a time and place for it. What's frowned on and seen as weak is unable or unwilling to control your emotions. It's seen as immature to let your feeling completely dominate you behavior. Nobody wants a someone who's wildly emotional and panicy when you're supposed to be professional. That being said, men are still human and have breaking points and that's where strong bonds can come from. Men are very supportive to each other and help keep each other mentally healthy. The reason you're supposed to "sucks it up" is because it's about overcoming things and being stronger than the problem.

Way to put words in my mouth, hypocrite.

I honestly don’t understand the problem.
Badgermao is my favorite out of the whole show but I never actually expected them to onscreen kiss in an episode.

This is a great way to look at things and I wish any of my male friends, family, or colleagues actually took it to heart

I never understood this kind of debate. How does simply enjoying to think two male characters together making love equals to believing male friendships doesn't exist? Absolutely no one thinks like that.

Not really? If homosexuality was a "normal everyday thing" than it wouldn't be a big issue to be seen as maybe gay. You would just answer "no" to the question. As it stands that would be offensive to alot of people because being gay is still taboo and theres homophobia. Males still fear getting close to males, especially publicly. Same goes with women. You only hang with a girl, or a girl only hangs with you if they want a relationship. Again, old ideals that have just run the course, but a lot of people still perpetuate them.

Also on topic, did anyone actually think those two would be a thing? It is very shipbait to a degree but doesnt seem explicitly gay.

But did he insult you or anybody else for that matter? Did he call you names and laugh at you? I don't think so.

Unrelated to the sperging but badgerclops is actually pretty cool when fulfilling the role of the muscle. I think the first time was when Orangusnake sliced his robo arm off and he just straight up decked him

He said calling them friends wasnt a copout from the network and that they really are just friends.
Saying "It wasnt my intent for people to ship them but it happened anyway, thats ok." is completely different. That is NOT what he said.

Parker went "no homo" because he puts his experiences into Mao Mao Mao, so people implying Mao Mao Mao could be gay made him think they were calling him gay.

This whole fucking thing is a boomer being afraid that people might find him gay so he has to make it clear how "straight" he is. What a joke. The entire root cause of men not being able to show affection is the fear of being perceived gay for doing so and he goes and perpetuates it.

They're a fusion

I dont think I even care anymore.

You gave Adorabat parents and now Mao Mao can't be her adoptive father anymore

You don't need to be an orphan to have adoptive parents.

Mao Mao will instead be Adorabat's boyfriend and future husband.

Which is better and I love it.

Not unless they threw you out of the house.

This nonexistant race of Them people who thought Mao Mao and Badgerclops were GENUINELY a gay couple but didnt want them to be because that would perpetuate some sort of stereotype. Right.

I don't think they'd go that route with her though

what the fuck

That's Parker?
damn that's sad

But does that make it okay? Is it fine to judge someone as gay for being affectionate? Is this stereotype okay because it aligns with your ideals, rather than one that doesn't?
I'm not saying the people who were shippers were improper in their assumption, but that they ultimately feed a stereotype about gays of which they may be unaware

You just said you didnt assume theyre REALLY gay, and neither did most shippers, so what the fuck.

This, he realized Mao Mao is overcompensating for his abandonment issues. And as a therapist he needs to stay stoic with his patients.

Nobody needs you to champion the "male friendship but Im not gay" cause. You have plenty of that. Its called every show with male friends, including this one.

>neither did most shippers
If this was true, why is their an outcry? Granted, it could just be tumblr, but I still fail to see how this changes anything. It's really an "authorial intent vs. death of the author" argument, to which the answer is that both are correct, and if you see Badgerclops and Mao Mao as gay lovers, by all means

Welcome to cancel culture.

Can we get back to talking about the show and not shipshit? Or has it already come to this point?

dammit Parker isn't it a bit too early in your show to cause some controversy
nigga you could've worded it better
and not reply to a random post

I like this.

>Plenty of media has male friendship without them being gay
>B-B-BUT PRIDE MONTH!

What the fuck?

So what will be the next fetish once the Cobbler episode comes up?

Weight gain? Inflation? Blueberry?

Has a creator shutting down a theory stopped people from theorizing? Just because the creator does not agree with your interpretation does not change that interpretation. If it's no fun, then maybe you should go to something that better suits your enjoyment

It’ll calm down once the dust settles and folks in these threads remember to stop binge eating bait

>Has a creator shutting down a theory stopped people from theorizing?

Yes.

If so, then the show isn't for them

I'm surprised nobody accused him of sexually harassment looking like that
that's the look of someone who will be accused of harassment

Thats disappointing. A lot of fun can be had from what the creators choose to not spell out.

what?

all of them
Parker might be base when shutting down the gays
but man he got some shit fetish
wouldn't surprise me if we'll get a diaper episode soon

True. But at somepoint as a creator, you have to draw the line somewhere and try to reel it back in.
Less your show ends up like Voltron.

Mao and Badgerclops aren't pretty enough to get to Voltron level

What are you so confused about, dumbass. I'll enlighten you.

thank god

>worst timeline
MM eats so much cobbler he turns into a spherical fatass leaking fruit juice from various orifices
>best timeline
MM looks like a kawaii kitten as he indulges surreptitiously in his long forbidden weakness with blown out pupils and purring noises

And if a creator wishes not to allow theories, they can. May not be the smartest move (I don't think Parker made the best move here), but it's one the creator can make.

Parker also probably didn't mean to rile the shippers (though he knew the risk), but tried to show a '''''progressive'''' aspect of his show, which backfired

The worse that could happen would be something like Davekat in Homestuck.

Doubt it would go far with a Mao Mao kickstarter, but shows what happens when fandom starts to take the reigns from the creator.

I better see lots of anime art styles for those kawaii faces. Even kaomoji style just for the hell of it

Probably because he’s been a literally who until two months ago.
And hes probably totally uninterested in women who can’t unhinge their jaw and swallow him whole

what argument are you making?

Catching up with the new episodes now. Really liked small and the Tanya Keys eps. Also kinda surprised to hear Adorabat has a dad and goes to school.

I really don't get why this is a controversial statement. All he's saying is that his intention as the creator was to show a positive male friendship and if you want to interpret it as something more that's up to you. Anyway hopefully this thread dies soon and the next one can be actually about the show.

what are you talking about?

Christ.
was a post about how plenty of media has not gay male friendship.
In response, gave some nonsense about the number of days in a week the gays get, hence the pride month reference.
Understand now, idiot, or are you still braindead.

>what are you talking about?

>Davekat in Homestuck.
Explain? I never read homestuck and have no drive to. The shit around is is more interesting.

Yeah its kinda weird, not to mention there's people saying that they weren't expecting official confirmation but are still upset? Like, they are mad because now that is not an ambiguous matter they can't fantasize about them being gay as much as before even though it was never ambiguous? Fucking weird man.

>if you want to interpret it as something more that's up to you.

In a "You can try if you want to, but you'd be wrong because they are objectively just friends." sort of way.

there are some things better left unsaid
this was one of them, he could've just went on with the show depicting them as bros being bros

Its called holding on to hope.

I took it as a "you do you, but the show won't focus on shipping" kinda of thing.

> gave some nonsense about the number of days in a week the gays get, hence the pride month reference

>he doesn't get the argument

The argument goes that "we have gay pride day/month because the other days/months are straight pride day". It's an idiotic argument that assumes certain ideas that just aren't true

It's controversial by default since the ship in question is a gay one. Biases on both sides are reading into the comment in ways that I'm sure Parker didn't intend, and many people's first exposure to the post were likely from a reblog filled with implications. Hopefully by the time new episodes come out people will realize the harmless nature of the comment and will continue to ship as usual.

He said that they're just friends, which touched on shipping, so you cant say hes not going to touch on shipping.
Its kind of like how saying a character DOESN'T die can still be a spoiler.

Can you like, I dont know, stay on topic with CARTOONS instead of days of the week? Can you manage that?

This show is a gift. I really hope we get a second season.

>Spongebob and Patrick are the most affectionate iconic male friends in animation and they've been on for 15 fucking years

1) Spongebob and Patrick are basically children, which are affectionate to literally everyone
2) Spongebob and Patrick rarely do anything that one would consider "gay", mostly just childish (see (1) )
3) SpongeBob's seasons 4-whatever cut back on the affection in favor of Patrick being a dick

so since badgermao is no longer allowed
what gay ship do we do with mao now?
Snugglemao? Rufusmao? BlueMao? Pinkymao?

Yup, its your problem. I know people lately are used to get what they want when it comes to ships, especially gay ones. But they just being friends was obvious since the beginning, you yourself admitted that nothing else would ever happen, yet you're mad because someone stated the obvious.

And you know what, I don't even understand why is so important for this kind of shit to stay ambiguous, people always end up doing whatever they want, parker knows that too, that's why he said to ship what you want. And yes, people is very extremist.

badgermao is plenty allowed, just not exactly...canon definitely PinkyClops

>They're considered children so it doesn't count

Then I guess Mao Mao and Badgerclops don't count either. Those characters might throw tantrums, shout that they're running away, or get excited over the most childish things. You know why? Because that's common in cartoons and it's funny.

That doesn't change the fact that all characters are still adults. And Spongebob does nothing gay with Patrick? Really? There was an entire episode dedicated to Spongebob trying to give Patrick the best Valentine ever. They check out each other's asses. They get really physical when they're affectionate.

It sounds like you want to just ignore that this is true to artificially make it true that MaoMao/Badgerclops is a "refreshing male/male affectionate relationship that we haven't seen in awhile".

You sound gay as fuck. Quit typing like a girl.

You're forgetting to look at demographic differences. Spongebob skews a little younger than Mao Mao, so they behave more childish. While Mao Mao and Badgerclops can act childish, there's no mistaking them for children, while Spongebob and Patrick are just kids with jobs and houses (Grandma's House is an example of this). Valentine's is more platonic as a child (in elementary school, in class everyone got a valentine from everyone else in that class). Citation needed on the checking asses and physical when affectionate (hugs don't count: they can always be platonic)

>OH SWEET MAMA THAT'S BIG

This is going to catch a lot of flak, but this is a based opinion.

hahaha what if adorabat got really fat hahaha

>Your ability to see anything gay in SpongeBob astounds me
Spongebob is considered a gay icon (Even though he's not gay). It's not very hard to see why.

Adoabat is not for fetishes

You sure about that?

Attached: 75698741_p54.jpg (850x745, 156K)

My point was that Mao Mao and Badgerclops do stuff that is seen as "gay", while Spongebob doesn't. Mao Mao & Badgerclops are unique in that way: you don't see many heterosexual affectionate love for friends in kids TV

The demographics are the same, but SpongeBob skews lower

n-nani?

Shippers ruin everything

Binary quads for that's not fighting toxic masculinity. It really does make it a sort of reflexive thing for him to say it with little provocation, if I'm reading this right. It's one thing to tease "keep watching to find out ;D" but there's a fun in that, a mystery. If there's no mystery there's something lost. The problem with male relationships is that they can be platonic or gay and it not matter. Making his intentions known for him is fun in it's own way because we understand the characters better, but presenting the fact that it's problematic that they're seen as gay is touchy in of itself because it implies what he's trying to avoid. If people think it's bad that they're shippable it's on them.

Show me what's so gay about Mao Mao you think it can't compete with Spongegob/Patrick.

So that's it, then? Fuck. Think there's any chance CN'll give him a long talk in sone executive's office and leave it lie, or is this show about to get canned? I figure the former's more likely given the overwhelmingly positive reception amd the fact he's deleted the tweets and can point to the Tumblr post, but what do you anons think?

Was blue being not impressed and chubbum flipping out meant to be a rib at competition shows where one judge hates every performance and another judge always has something nice to say no matter what?

I think you're taking the tweet too seriously

You're both right.

That's him...? Based on the voice I thought he'd be a rugged redhead, not some fugly incel. That last interview makes perfect sense now. Expect this guy to get #metooed within a month for something he DEFINATLY looks like he would do.

Screencap this.

It doesnt matter how much the show itself makes it obvious its not happening, theres just something about the creator himself announcing youre wasting your time that stings so much worse.

Yeah, you sound like an incel. Mao is becomes useless on a dime, him losing to Tanya because he's too good of a person and manages to keep up while playing by the rules she disregards only makes him more than her.

I don't know man, the archive compiliation is breddy fucking blatant. Then again, if Cartoon Network let outright rape, torture, and trauma allegories slide like butter there's a good chance they'll keep this under the table.

Snakes are always in the grass user. I thought you would have learned this after AT.

No. Why? Because whenever I do, you'll bring up an appropriate Spongebob image that looks like it's gay, but it's not, then we argue whether it is or is not.
We are arguing over something subjective, which neither of us are willing to drop. So no, I won't.

I main /d/ and I've been here since the board started

Yes, because hugging can be and often is platonic, and the ice cream licking thing doesn't necessarily imply gayness either

see, we're getting into an argument that cannot be won by either of us. It would be best to drop it and move on with our lives

These are two completely unrelated posts user, why are you (you)ing me. Who are you.

What I'm trying to say, drama queen, is that you were ALREADY wasting your time. Him stating what you already knew should change nothing, unless you're some kind of sad fuck who projects himself into this characters so much that this "official confirmation" somehow affect you personally.

I wish I didn't.

because you just read "no" without reading the rest

"I cherish you" can also be platonic.

But you think it's gay.

Thanks. That seems convoluted as hell though.

Yeah I’m sure you’re right, but calling someone a fugly incel who looks like he’d sexually harass a coworker is a pretty low blow for a guy just trying to make funny cartoons.

This show is terrible and filled with cliches, mediocre writing, and bad characters. It attempts to be funny with SO LE RANDUM XD and xXxEDGYxXx humor and occasionally panders to its dumb fuck audience like the gay ass furries with 'suggestive' things like the I cherish you line.

3. The people in these threads are literally bad people.
They can't fucking post anything intelligence, its just pure stupidity, shipwars, uncontained horniness for a shitty BADger and shitty posting not to mention you guys have gay furry porn that you post on a regular FUCKING basis.

We're getting into an argument because you're straight up lying either to me or yourself and you know it.

Faggot.

Oh, so you were projecting into them huh.

which one? because it very well might

>t. called out

I'm reading these twitter post and I still can't figure out why most of these people are mad.

Because he's saying he wants them to be seen as friends. He wants them to be unquestionably "just friends" because he sees them being seen as gay as a problem. The problem being two guys showing affection as a sign that they're gay. The truth is that is a sign of being gay, but it doesn't have to be. Anyone who saw "you know you love me" at the end of Zootopia as 100% proof Nick and Judy are fucking is wrong, but making the case along with other things you noticed is part of the fun of being a fan. Do some people take it too far? Yes. Is it problematic that people see men and women as incapable of ever being platonic? Also yes. I still don't want the creators to come out and spoil that detail because that's part of the fun of waiting for a sequel.

The graceful way to handle this is to answer a question of "are they in a relationship?" with "I think what we see can be interpreted many different ways because we don't know everything about them and that's part of the fun, but what I see in them is the kind of healthy relationship men often want for themselves but are denied due to emotional barriers certain parts of society demands they put up between them. Openly reaffirming how much someone means to you even among friends isn't done enough because it's so unnecessarily stigmatized. Ship however you like, but know that I'd write them like this regardless of their relationship status."

Boom. There you go. Season 2 in the bag.

Theres only one 2nd one dumbass.

we're getting into an argument because you won't stop until you "win". We believe two very different things, and you wish to make it seem like I am a liar because I disagree. There's no winning. Give it up

Its mostly people with no life projecting themselves into the characters. So they think that parker saying that they are not gay invalidates them personally. See:

Because singling out the most popular ship in the show as impossible while saying "tv shows are long overdue for FRIENDSHIP!" while gays look for table scraps is a shitty and unnecessary thing to do? Its not that hard to get.

No, you're just lying and think that saying, "You're the light under my sails" is gay but a character celebrating Valentine's Day with their male friend is not gay.

I don't know how you got ANY of that from that post, but youre retarded.

Get a life. If you want to pretend they are gay go ahead. But looking for representation is fucking stupid.

That was an extremely fast way of getting me bummed out, damn.

The phrase (which you mangled) has a romantic attachment, while Valentine's was platonic for me as a child with no romance but that in TV. There is no way to win this battle for either of us. Drop it

He's fucked now.

Really, what Pokémon has done is barely different from Parker Simmons. It’s not like they say “fuck you” to any of their fan-favorite mons or don’t follow typical game development stuff with their graphics. In both cases, the communities are still acting like self-centered assholes over not having everything and resort to picking on almost everything for the slightest error to exaggerate into some big deal, even on shit they don’t actually care about.

That doesn't mean it is platonic, you retard.

How?

You're pathetic, but don't let me stop you from making the relationship of two cartoon characters what defines your life. Go right on ahead.

Nbody said it was about validation, it was about saying something as stupid as "Television is long overdue for......male friendship. Oh, and your gay ship isnt happening." Like what the fuck.

but it is, to me. We cannot agree on anything, so there is no way to change either mind

I'm not angry, I think he has a good point, but it could have been worded better without spoiling a little detail about the show as it progressed and we're getting to know the characters. Especially as it's just coming out, he should be showing and not telling.

I feel bad for the guy. I seriously hope he's just finding a way to word it better.

Backpedaling to avoid controversy only brings forth more controversy.

WHEW LADS

That doesn't matter what it is "to you". Spongebob has entire sections on his Wiki page dedicated to him being a gay icon because that's how the audience perceives him even though Hillenburg said he's not.

You're objectively wrong.

I'm allowed hobbies, now get off this chinese image board, hypocrite. You have no argument about wasting time on stupid shit as long as you stay here.

Lol. I fucking love autism

Pokemon is a game that routinely rakes in hundreds of millions on an estimated budget of a few tens of millions. The profit margins are ridiculous and the development time and resources is miniscule. Thus, the product suffers

I'm confident he'll ambiguously rephrase it and this'll all blow over

If it's audience Perception, how is my perception any less? I don't doubt I'm alone in my beliefs, either

> "Television is long overdue for......male friendship. Oh, and your gay ship isnt happening."
Like I said, you're just looking for reasons to be angry.

And this is why nobody should take this "controversy" seriously, what a bunch of clowns.

He doesn't have to backpedal, just word it better. He made a good point, but the way he said it made it seem like bros don't happen in cartoons and emphasizing the need for an added "no homo" as if that mattered to the fans in tone def. The fans enjoyed the gay-maybe-not-gay antics and he made it worse.

It is when you're the minority and you're trying to imply you're the majority.

should'a stuck to his guns

I honest to God think he's lurking here

Not that guy, but you're the one thinking this defines people and getting upset about that. It's a you problem.

The minority is just as important as the majority. If not, tyranny by the majority leads to oppression of dissenting opinion and mob rule. Being in the minority does not invalidate an opinion

Again, your posts have no weight. You can only say "lol why do you care about something I dont!" so many times

Why the fuck would Parker be wasting his time on Yea Forums? I have better things to do anyway.

He shut the controversy's momentum down, now we'll see how he can handle the inertia and impact. Simmons is clearly autistic and this all new to him, let's cut him some slack.

OK K.O. has Voxman and Nick/Joff.

>When you're so far removed from your point, you start talking about dictatorships

Are you really that embarrassed to admit that you were wrong and Patrick/Spongebob are indeed a very friendly, affectionate pair of male best friends that have been popular for over a decade? Because it sounds like you are.

>I have better things to do anyway.

Accidental slip of baitposter?
Probably baitposter

>deleted his post
damn, I know the point he was trying to make
but he really could've worded it better

parker pls make snugglemao canon

If you cant see how its insensitive to say tv is overdue for fucking friendship while CN has no prominent gay males then you are dense as fuck. Im not "looking" for anything, that is what ACTUALLY HAPPENED.

A lot of creatives lurk. You get unfiltered opinions of the adult side of the fanbase which can make you an empire if you play it right/get lucky. It's like what happened with MLP.

>word it better
Yes god please, do it like suggested, particularly
>Ship however you like, but know that I'd write them like this regardless of their relationship status
The only way to salvage this situation is a reword

And yours do? You're just mad because you're a faggot who doesn't got what he wanted. Objectively, parker didn't said anything wrong, this is only a controversy because a couple of people don't feel validated anymore, and the best thing is that that validation never existed to begin with.

Of course THIS thread reached 600 posts.

user just likes the cartoon and doesn't want Yea Forums to stop watching it because the developer fucked up. Parker knows he fucked up, why else would he have deleted his post? The situation can still be salvaged, he can walk it back.

I just wanted to talk about the new episodes

So what, a big portion of the moms are useless, ugly, and badly designed garbage. We are still getting Lucario and other fan-favorite mons. Let’s not forget about the massively buffed regional variants of some shitty, unused, old Pokémon that’ll shake up the competitive scene.

They're all bad. Next question.

Sorry, is there something wrong with...not being happy that I got shit on? Its called being human, twat. Now go away you walking doormat, people who actually care are talking.

Drama sells

I he just might clarify. I love the guy and I feel for him and hope he salvages the situation, not just because I hope this series has a long run, but because he deserves happiness and success. Regardless, I still love the show. I can appreciate the canon bromance, but he needs to work on his twitter delivery.

My point is that comparing Spongebob & Patrick to Mao Mao & Badgerclops isn't an apt comparison on the basis of romantic attention: their dynamics are different. And I won't be able to convince you otherwise, and vice versa.

Which is the least bad tho

CodeBroken is just a troll user, don't respond

Just do and someone will talk about it with you.

"Truth Stinks" obviously

And you're objectively wrong. As evident by the fact that muscular Spongebob and Patrick walking hand-in-hand in their underwear that is colored like each other is ten times more gay than anything Mao Mao and Badgerclops has ever done, and that includes the bike thing.

1) Every 'mon is someone's favorite. Overplayed, but true
2) Regional variants look like shit. Just balance the old ones. They also require new models, further restricting resources

Next thread we can talk about BC's JO crystals!

I don't see how it's insensitive because my life doesn't resolve around the love life of two cartoon characters, and I don't lose sleep because or harass the creator when I find out someone doesn't like dick.

He turned on me first.

>implying this absolute specimen
>isn't shitposting in this very thread
I shiggy diggy

Which Sweetiepie sold him those crystals

And this is the best part, you faggots actually think that parker somehow insulted you, just for stating his intentions, intentions that were clear since the very beginning, you actually think this is about you.

Oh, well, if YOUR life doesnt revolve around it I guess thats all that really matters. My mistake. Faggot.

>sensitivity is only dependent on what your life revolves around
You're just dumb.

Honestly a much better topic

I still have a hard time seeing it as gay personally, but can see how others can (maybe I was too young at first exposure or something). But one moment a gay couple does not make. Mao Mao & Badgerclops have routinely had scenes like this

I bet he's going to lose 20,000-30,000 viewers tops over this. Deleting it was the right call, now let's see if he can salvage it with a reword.

I'm a watcher and fan of the show and I ship them, which is what the post was about. Was he talking about cheese?

Pinky because Pinky likes 'em stinky.

Not making a strong case when this drama centers around two cartoon characters not sharing the same sexuality as some people.

My autistic twelve year old cousin compulsively watches this show. Is it worth streaming?

Nah, the show is too good on its own. It had more than one ship that didn't have very much validity to begin with. A fun ship I enjoy, don't get me wrong.

>inb4 all Badgermao scenes are altered/removed

>Reaching this hard because he knows he has no point

It's sad, really. You sound like a desperate shipfag.

Which only matters in this universe because of the viewers, idiot, otherwise its just pointless ink on paper.

muffins. that bitch shady

I've been shipping them and I appreciate the honesty but I won't be stopping.

Yes. Now go, leave this cursed thread

The drama is mostly about Parker essentially posting spoilers while implying males being friends is rare in cartoons. To most male cartoon friends act as intimate as BC and Mao? No, but again he could have made that point better.

Tell them to stop posting in this thread

but I'm not a shipfag

You're right, it's arguably better than Adventure Time's first season but you have to keep the Tumblr fanatic demographic in mind.

The motherfucker snuck vore into a Cartoon Network show, he'll stick to his guns

first episode is a little rough but it hit's it's stride pretty well. really depends what you wan't out of a cartoon and all that jazz.

Should he make a second post explaining himself better or or should he pretend like nothing happened now that it's deleted?
Personally I think the latter might be more damaging.

More denial.

Mao and Badgerclops could still be canon gay
but not with each other

Why was it deleted? Did he upset the gay community or something?

>last thread that went over 600 posts was about badgerclops shitting
>this thread is about shipping
yall are the worst baka

Im not going to stop either, but I can still see how saying "Hey kids, can you guess what Mao Mao has that cartoons are long overdue for? Male.....PLATONIC FRIENDSHIP!!! Oh and your gay shit isnt happening lul." is kind of shitty.

The fanatics are few though and they are often not the core demographic. The main audience is still kids 8-13 as you can see in the ads that run on that limited saturday morning cartoon hour they give the show once a week.

Seriously, this show only airs 7AM on Saturdays in California.

Okay. Is there a Mega?

...
>wears stained MAGA hat
>watches anime with subtitles
>won't stop talking about swords
The little shit probably posts here, come to think of it.

If I'm in denial, you must be the pharaoh

Shipfags

It’s just a handful of dipshits who can’t resist replying to each other, while everyone else tries to talk around them

I think he'll go for the former.

It speaks volumes that he's still getting that many views.
