  1. What's the appeal of Transformers? by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0, Troll

    I don't get it. What's so special about transformers? I remember as kid it just another gimmicky, poorly animated cartoon show designed to market little robot cars and other toys. There was certainly nothing memorable the show that would create a fan following, I don't think. Maybe I'm missing something.

      Maybe it's because you're not some comic book fag living in his mothers basement. All the fucking malcontent anti-social geeks love this kind of shit because they have nothing else in their pathetic lives.

    No. I loved Transformers as a child. I have a tape of myself singing the theme song as a CHILD. I did not own any transformers. They were too expensive for my parents. I just got the stupid knock-off Go-bots.

    I don't care much now, even though I loved them then. Sure, if I saw it on TV I'd watch it--if my wife could take it. However, I am NOT excited about this movie. I am too busy studying and doing research for a Transformers movie.

    You see, there is more "More Than Meets the Eye" in psychological research, than in Transformers.

    For what it's worth, I don't think the comment was worth the down-modding. This story may arguably be "news for nerds", but "stuff that matters"? Enough for the front page? Maybe I'm just getting old...

    I am an adult to. I am getting Married Have my own how, work a full time job which pays more then the national average. I am a responsible mature adult by all measurements. But heck I still like transformers I watch the DVDs yea in retrospec the cartoons were a little cheesy but still they were fun. What is there not to like about Robots turning into cars and back.

    So, what state are you in that they allow fag marriages? I don't know of a heterosexual male older that 14 who still gives a fuck about this shit. You dirty faggot.
