either i haven't been on here enough or there aren't any outstanding contenders. and i'm here to change that. Ms. SoShiStan *cough* VioletParr *cough* *cough* VioletWinters *cOuGh* VioletPunisherr *COUGH COUGH* FeLiNa *WHEW GOT IT* is jonesing for a custom gif badge. i hold a firm belief that allkill members should be able to commission for 3k+ akorns but that's not a can of worms i'm opening here.
so instead i'm going to open an even more malicious can of worms and make a thread filled with tons of edgy kpop questions that you can choose to debate others on (or just give your own opinion on). you don't have to answer all of them but i have a feeling this should do the trick. i won nov 2021 and i'm back for more. i'm too busy with finals to write a full analysis thread so this'll do for now. don't let me down.... or else....
DISCLAIMER:
Some of the groups I'm asking questions about here I either ult or I'm a big fan of. While I do love seeing different opinions, sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do This is meant to spark discussion, that being said it is not meant to start full on fanwars. If this goes to dumpsterfire I'm gonna remake it without the inflammatory question that caused it to go there. Let's keep it peaceful folks, I can see how this would attract trolls, if it's obvious bait then just react with a facepalm and keep it moving.
wandavision badge here i come!!! i'll start picking out my gifs soon
