#critical backlash

With the 17 years that the Revived Series has aired, some fans have started watching the programme again,

and find that they actually love the episodes, despite having complained about them before.

Despite the fact that many fans hated the Sixth Inspector,

many have come round to actually enjoy his run on later viewings.

i mean seriously, if your path in life doesn't require higher-level math, then don't study it if you don't want to, but at least be able to do the basics (PEMDAS, solving for a variable)--there are things in life that will require it (calculating tip at a restaurant, filing taxes, measuring things in crafts)

also math wasn't invented just to torture people, it was invented to solve problems

if there was no math we'd have no computers -> no internet -> no Tumblr

Some people channel all their hate into certain pop stars.

I mean seriously, what did they do wrong? Did they beat up your favorite musicians? Blow up a building? Skin your pet alive? Force you to play Gradius IV?

Me? I'd rather be protesting against people who actually do bad and stupid things, like a certain politician with a homophobia fetish and the xenophobic vice president of a certain game developer.

As much as I make anti-Tumblr posts (ironically, on Tumblr)...

I don't necessarily hate it all that much.

I appreciate it for what it is, it's just that I don't think it's as great as people make it out to be. I just wish, you know, that Tumblr didn't have so many silly design decisions, such as extremely limited commenting, poor anti-spam measures, and no way to temporarily filter out NSFW blogs (so what's the point of designating blogs as NSFW?). If those issues were fixed up, I'd have a much more positive opinion of this site.

Personally, when it comes to sites with social networking elements, I'm still more partial to Twitter and Facebook, and even then, every site I use has a specific purpose to me: Tumblr's multimedia sharing, quick posts on Twitter, Facebook for real-life friends (and some non-RL friends), Foursquare for sharing my thoughts on places and figuring out who to hang with for the day, and Google+'s widely-variable privacy.
