What is a Hedgehog?

:idea: Meditation on the meaning of it all...

At first glance Sonic the hedgehog seems to be an example of nature versus technology. Even deeper we see a clash between man and animal. Light against dark or good versus evil. Sonic the hedgehog has become a metaphor, building off a symbol for the universal struggle for balance
. Perhaps this is why it has left impact on us as individuals. Because it has become a projection of ourselves. Even something critiqued by us, judged for it's character or lack there of. Or ! We just liked the orginal game for it's speed and simplicity and everything else is just bullshit the company uses to make us pay money for, well, "our own reflections"... :roll:

A hedgehog can never be buggered.

He didn't have much of an impact on me, I just ran around pretending to collect rings when I was young.

Call me simplistic if you will, but I think mine's just called "Porn".

Funny thing. Mine's jammed inside a Sonic Robo Blast beta folder. No one will ever EVER look there. Not even myself.

I have no porn folder, but instead am at the mercy of the Internet.

Fortunately, Rule #34 is in effect at all times.

That's not always fortunate.

Do I dare ask what Rule #34 is?

If it exists, there's porn for it.

Rule 34 may be in effect, but that doesn't mean that said porn is easy to find...

What are the other rules in this list?

I think there are only two well-defined ones other than 34.

35: Corollary to 34; if 34 somehow is false about any specific topic, then porn for the topic must be made immediately. This usually results in really bad MSPaint drawings, but 34 never specified quality.

41: Everything needs the word "Desu" at the end, no exceptions. Derived from Suiseiseki, a main character in the anime <i>Rozen Maiden</i>, who always does this. Fortunately, for most people's sanity, this rule is rarely in effect until some /b/-tard drags it up.

Tell me about it, do you know how hard it is to find decent Sonic porn?

No, thank you. Within video games, I'll stick with good ol' Final Fantasy. At least that's easy to find.

As much as I love 4 copies of a brunette, FF hentai gets old.

Your post title -> <i>Symphony of the Night</i> reference -> porn folders -> 4chan's Rule 34 and so on.

That's the relationship.

That is to say, there is, ultimately, no relationship. Your topic is just going slowly offtopic, to the point that we're no longer discussing what you were initially interested in. lol internet forum, mirite?

To go briefly ontopic: To tell the truth, deeper meanings along the lines of nature versus technology, man versus nature, and the like, really never occurred to me. The only reason I became interested in Sonic to begin with is because Sonic 2 was my first video game to ever own or play for an extended period of time. From there on, more Sonic titles came and I proceeded to play them, too. It's as simple as that.

I take it this means we're going to have a sudden influx of furry porn at any second then, right?





Right?

I'd reply 'Just wait for Baba', but I think Baba posting furry porn has been old meme for ages.

Also, no. This isn't /b/, so Rule 34 doesn't work here.
