Only fitting that this year’s most pointless controversy somehow stems from Twitter, the one site that has somehow managed to usurp 4chan as the asshole of the internet. And of all this comes from fucking Animal Crossing of all things.

To catch anyone who doesn’t rightfully look into these things up, all of this started when someone posted a picture of their character sporting afro puffs in Animal Crossing, and mistakenly calling them “cute space buns.” And… yeah, that’s pretty much all there is it. In fact, that’s actually everything to this. The girl got harassed, received tens of thousands of angry replies, supposedly had her information doxxed, and ended up deleting her account. Yeah I’m not fucking making this up.

Keep in mind, these people are complaining about racial identity being erased while playing as an amorphous blob with an orange triangle for a nose. Honestly, I’m really not sure what there is to say about this, even Nintendo responded to the poster’s query, telling them any clothing and hair style can be used by anyone.

Now while I'm sure you may not care about racial identity being snuffed out in a video game about animals and them... crossing, whatever. I sure wish Twitter just SHUT THE FUCK UP FOR ONCE! FUCK! Man, I cannot stand that fucking site anymore. Holy fuck.
