I think it's a joke in the episode I haven't seen, but there is a YouTube series called SAO Abridged, and if you're familiar with DBZ Abridged or Yu-Gi-Oh Abridged you probably get the gist of it.
It takes the (mostly disliked) Sword Art Online anime and turns it into a comedy by reediting and redubbing it.

Ah, I see. DBZ Abridged is a series I'm familiar with. The "I need an adult" trope used in DBZ Abridged is pure gold.

There are many ways in which the universe can keep you from participating in The Eternal Thread.

It’s probably because I’m more active on Discord now- at least partially. I also have to do things during the day.

Yes. Take me, for example. Here I am, posting in TET, but I should really go to the kitchen and start cooking.

They actually turned Kirito into a character.
With character things.

That already makes it way better than the original anime.

Theoretically that is true, but I don't browse NationStates on my smartphone. I've got a perfectly good PC, after all.

No PC you use could remain perfectly good given the horrors it has undoubtedly seen.

Conserative Morality wrote:"It's not time yet" is a tactic used by reactionaries in every era. "It's not time for democracy, it's not time for capitalism, it's not time for emancipation." Of course it's not time. It's never time, not on its own. You make it time. If you're under fire in the no-man's land of WW1, you start digging a foxhole even if the ideal time would be when you *aren't* being bombarded, because once you wait for it to be 'time', other situations will need your attention, assuming you survive that long. If the fields aren't furrowed, plow them. If the iron is not hot, make it so. If society is not ready, change it.

It's just you.

Your shockingly localised climate system remains a marvel and continues to inspire meteorology to this day.
