STFUAJPG
 by coonskin05 on 03.31.2008      37 comments







Most likely, you've already seen this. And if you have, you most likely have an opinion on it. I do, but I'm not going to share that here, you can get on IRC and ask me. I'm sure DVD had noble intentions, but funny how a post against fanboyism unravels into such immaturity. The second rule of Destructoid is STFUAJPG. Since a lot of people apparently don't know what it means, let me tell you.

SHUT THE FUCK UP AND JUST PLAY GAMES.

Let me break it down for you.

Shut the fuck up: Shut the fuck up. Shut the fuck up. Shut the fuck up. That's all there is to it. If you feel like instigating something, shut the fuck up. If you feel like taking someone else's flamebait, don't, just shut the fuck up.


And just play games: Instead of wasting your precious goddamn energy on bitching and moaning, go play a video game. Any of them. You will have more fun, be less upset, and it will work out better for all of us.

In closing, please don't give in to flamebait. And if you're posting flamebait, fuck you. Shut the fuck up and just play games people.

BRAVO. A++++++! Would read again.

I never understood why people have to unite and bark at other gamers who are playing a different console. They're all games, so just stfuajpg.

I was wondering when someone was going to bring up STFUJPG! I was kind of missing that destructoid meme. Couldn't agree more.

By the way, where are the destructiod rules I can't find 'em?
I know where forum rules are but not the site rules.

unstoppablejuggernaut's Destructoid Blog
this isnt a flame first and foremost but ...

so what your saying is that everyone should have the same opinion and not saying anything about anything that they might find to be wrong, inaccurate or incomplete when it comes to a gaming experience.

stfuajpg is a great moto and a rallying cry and all that but we are people of vast varied opinions who dont see the world the same as the next person and who want to speak and open discourse amongst ourselves about topics we feel passionate about...

as much as i agree with stfuajpg there is alot of room for discussion about consoles and games and such and just cause someone is saying something you might not agree with doesnt make the words any less valid

granted if they are simply trolling or in general being an asshole for the sake of it then this changes things drastically but please bring your opinions and your questions and queries to the table and lets discuss things and not just be the flock mentality and just follow the leader into the path of buckshot

dont just stfuajpg people

speak intelligently and openly and lets hear some good reasoning and interpretations of your gaming experiences and thoughts

I dont think STFUAJPG applies to all that, but whatever, civility goes out the window when people start beating their chest. I love you coonskin, like a heart attack.
Righteous Ice's Destructoid Blog
You guys are all trolls in my book.
pendelton21's Destructoid Blog
Thanks for that. I was wondering what the big deal was with shutting the fuck up and picture files. Now everythings clear.
MaxVest's Destructoid Blog
@unstoppablejuggernaut: I don't think most people break out STFUAJPG when people are having a lively, spirited debate. Usually it rolls out around the time personal attacks start happening.

I THREW IT OUT THE WINDOW. IT WAS LACED WITH DUMB.

Samit Sarkar's Destructoid Blog
Amen, brother.

@unstoppablejuggernaut: There’s a fine line between debate and fanboyism. Apparently, some people don’t know how to toe that line.

There are just times when anger at a certain situation boils over and you just feel like you have to use the C-Blogs as a place to vent. Its like a white hot flash of fury that provokes a shower of hate.

Not sure whether the repost was necessary though.

Tragic Hero's Destructoid Blog
Today I was on the elevator at work and a cubs fan started talking about how great the Chicago Cubs were. I told him to piss because the White Sox were better. He started to talk about how the Cubs made the playoffs last year while the Sox finished dead last. I almost smacked him in return telling him that at least the White Sox didn't waste 100 years of baseball and had nothing at all to show for it. He called me a hilljack and then I called him a homo.

So does STFUAJPG fit in to this situation or should I just hit him and tell him to go march in a pride parade?

WDot's Destructoid Blog
How about this: Whenever someone starts ditching civility for a full-fledged flamefest, we just bury him in STFUAJPG posts? And then continue the discussion at the last civil post. Don't give a thought out reply or take the bait, just STFUAJPG to send the message that this is not the time or place to argue about your chosen console.
