History Quotes / RatedMForMoney

->Violence in video games has been a political topic ever since pussies were allowed to vote. And [[MoralGuardians anti-game activist]]s have gotten their stupid, punchable mouths back on the news recently because of Cliffy B's ''{{Bulletstorm}}''... It actually penalizes you if your victims die with a face or penis-- that's paradigm shifting. Oh, and speaking of penises, the game has worse dick jokes than a pediatric urologist. When you bring it home, your five-year-old will ask if you bought any games [[NightmareFetishStationAttendant that are more mature.]]

->There is nothing worse than people trying to be cool. It either happens naturally or you shouldn’t bother, but this show is constantly trying to make its regulars look as hip as possible and the result is akin to your parents attempting to get down ‘[[TotallyRadical wiv da kidz]]’ -- toe curlingly embarrassing... waving guns around as though they were play things, murdering people without compunction, emotional disloyalty, swearing as though [[ClusterFBomb it is going out of fashion]]; perhaps the title for this episode should be 'Anything Goes'. Compared with something like ''Series/TheSarahJaneAdventures'' which just got on with telling decent yarn and treating its characters intelligently, the two approaches couldn’t be more different. The result is the ''SJA'' cast are instantly sophisticated whilst the ''Torchwood'' bunch look like [[AdultChild a bunch of children playing at being adult.]]

->'''{{Wrestling/Francine}}:''' If you hold the ropes open for me, I can't hump. ([[DeadHorseTrope Which all the girls do nowadays.]]) But I did it first! '''''I''''' did it first!\\

->''"Everyman copies someone’s appearance by [[ImAHumanitarian ingesting a little bit of their body]], but his name is also Hannibal—seriously, fucking Hannibal!—so he also just eats people [[ForTheEvulz for the hell of it]]...I know I’m supposed to find shit like this horrifying, but it’s really just bad writing on par with the absurdity of [[ComicBook/IdentityCrisis Dr. Light, insatiable humpmaster.]] I’m supposed to take this seriously?"''

->''"As far as I’m concerned, ''The Rise of Arsenal'' is something of cultural touchstone for comics in 2010. It tells us a lot about the lengths that DC will go to in order to push a second-tier character into some semblance of faux prominence. In just four short issues, Roy Harper transformed from [[GoodIsBoring a committed single father and recovering addict]] into a drug-addled amputee who smokes heroin (and [[CriticalResearchFailure magically manages to hallucinate]]) in dark alleys. It was pretty simple, too. All they had to do was [[NinetiesAntihero cut off his arm]] and [[KickTheMoralityPet murder his adorable daughter]]... It’s okay to let quality fall by the wayside as long as whatever is happening in the comic itself is as over-the-top as possible. After all, this is a business and you have to sell, sell, sell. And it most certainly worked. ''Rise of Arsenal'' outsold quality books like ''{{Secret Six}}'', ''{{The Unwritten}}'', ''{{Daytripper}}'', ''{{Sweet Tooth}}'' and ''{{Power Girl}}''. It proves that we haven’t set the bar terribly high for ourselves as fans, and we probably won’t be collectively challenging the industry to make our books any better, either."''
