Steampunk is a new sexual fetish that is sweeping across hipster groups in liberal urban areas. It is a sub-genre of hipsters that like Star Wars, books from the wild west, and World of Warcraft.
There's lots more where that comes from, and it only gets funnier. Then, after you're done laughing at the "article", read the comments section for even more laughs!

Can't tell if serious.

Among other things, I was miffed by the fact that the writer mis-reported the ending to Sucker Punch (after mis-reporting the name as "Sucker Punk").

And I can't tell if he's serious, either. I'm crossing my fingers and hoping for "professional troll".

That definition is no worse than the one I've seen many self-described Steampunks use. ;)

A) Obviously this guy is a professional troll, look at his pic: Image
The downside is that I'm sure there are people that believe him, because they are idiots.

B) If this was happening, I would be there:Steampunkers dress up like mechanical human train robots and goto festivals like “Burning Man” where they can have “steam sex” with other steampunkers. It is almost what a 1800′s version of Transformers porn would look like.


It is not happening.

C) From his other article : UFC - The most homo-erotic Pay-per-view novella on television: "This is the gayness of all moves in the MMA world. In this move, the fighter must sex mount (full mount) the other fighter and wedge his legs around the other fighter’s waist, while he lies helpless, eager and vulnerable on the floor. He will then ground and pound his pelvic sex area into the other fighter’s mini sauce sacs until the fighter or ref calls it a win."

Confirmed professional troll. Damn I wish there was some 1800's transformers porn though. A man can dream!

Well, no. I'm with him on this one. He's totally right.

Steampunk is 1) a fantasy deus ex machina that lets authors and readers conceive of a world where steam is much more beneficial than it ever has been as a source of power, physics is generally malleable to the will, and the world ov 19th century Europe is much more interesting than it actually was.

2) A marketing system where any kind of design can be sold the the fen as long as it doesn't have recognizable and repeatable science attached to it.

Has to be a troll.

Sucker Punk is the first movie to show how steampunkers wish the world would actually become. The world would be overlaid with a green and blue photo filter, ninja school girls, World War I airship carries and 3rd rate Michael Bay explosions.


What is wrong with this world? I for one, would welcome our new Ninja School Girl Overlords.

Quote:
Sucker Punch is a movie about a girl who dresses like a cheap thrill seeking whore and performs mouth sex acts on robots, so she can free her friends from their pimp. The movie stars Mtv hussie, Tia Tequila, who plays “Babydoll”. Tia has her hair bleached to make her look more slutty and loose. Babydoll and her slutty side kicks use their cog and steam wheeled weapons to fight off samurai robots, who want to imprison them into a sex house. After many boring sword fights and exposed female milk sacs, the girls finally kill their pimp and find freedom to spread their whore juices onto the unsuspecting world of trains and machine gun cabooses.


There is so much wrong in this statement, I don't even know where to begin. He obviously didn't even watch the movie. I'm pretty sure there were no sex acts on robots or any exposed female milk sacs. And Babydoll is Emily Browning. Not Tia Tequila.

Definitely a troll. In fact, an entire website of professional trolls.

Like similar satire websites, Christwire's stories have sometimes erroneously been taken at face value. This may be an example of "Poe's law", an adage regarding the difficulty of distinguishing some parodies from serious material.

Could someone post some pictures (people, art, anything) of Steampunk? I have a rough idea of what it is but not really sure.

If Star Wars were converted to steampunk:

Basically, it's a mix of victorian 19th century style, with advanced technology (and sometimes magic) but using clockwork, tesla, and steam as the foundation for the technology. Doc Brown's time machine at the end of Back to the Future III is a good example. Advanced tech, but running on steam.
