I've seen people claim that Undertale is an SJW game because it has nonviolence and "bisexual relationships".

Not even lying.

...Do you know what has those? Fallout series. Nonviolence from the first game on and bisexual relationships came in F2.

And that was just the first game I could think of.

Actually, plenty of RPGs have non-violent option and I for one think the game is rather poorly made if you can't find any other solutions to problems than violence.

As for "bisexual relationships" ...Grow up. LGBT characters and relationships are there and it makes the games more inclusive but if the character/plot is well written and not just a token "hey look what group we are pandering to!" it is not a problem. (And it's not like there isn't enough media being made that has no LGBT characters. If you are seriously afraid of getting "gay cooties" from a game no one is forcing you to play it but plenty of other people are going to like those features that you hate.)

LGBT relationships have been a thing in games since Ultima VII, when you could visit the "bath house" and...ahem, enjoy the ministrations of the various workers there, of either gender, no matter what gender the Avatar was.  Granted, its still basically bangin hookers, but it was the first game that I can recall where you can openly fuck a person of the same gender.  In 1992.

to add to your list: f3 had homosexual relationships (and with the exception of one radroach) pacifist runs. same deal with new vegas, i believe for pacifist options (and i'm sure for same-sex relationships, hookers included).

Even old mainstream games like Splinter Cell have a "no kill" option, for all through the game but the last boss. Fucking NSA sneaky-ass pacifist commies!

Plus in Undertale the pacifist run serves a thematic purpose in the overall story, also who could hate awesome lesbian fish woman Undyne and bisexual dinosaur mad scientist Alphys they are the best characters in the game besides Papyrus and Temmie.

C'mon guys, we all know Undertale is a bad game because Toby contributed to Homestuck!

Seriously though, if a kid acting out a date with both male and female NPCs is "too SJW" for you, I don't know what to say besides "get your head out of your ass". It's a good thing almost no one who's bitching about Undertale has actually played Undertale, or they'd be bitching about the lesbian relationship in the true pacifist run.

Let me buy that game then. I want to support SJW games and women in gaming, if only for the people it riles up.

Knowing spiders this was not an overkill and besides, this did happen in Australia so it it quite possible that the spider threw some of the furniture.

Doesn't killing an Australian spider usually require calling in close air support?

That looks like a black widow.  Don't they live in North America?

It's the sole reason we have an air force at all. If it weren't for the spiders, the whole thing would be a giant waste of money.

I thought the air force was for the drop bears.

The air force is the drop bears.

The original spider looks like a red-back spider which is closely related to black widows and even has been known to interbreed with brown widows. Red backs are usually fairly small but are quite dangerous. Huntsman on the otherhand which are big (can be bigger than your hand) are in fact very safe and placid. They don't spin webs and they eat lots of insects, they look as scary as fuck but won't actually bite anyone. The serious fucking spider though is the Funnel Web Spider, which is big like a huntsman and the most venomous spider on earth. It is the only spider with strong enough venom that it can kill a healthy adult. It also looks like it wants to bash you and steal your sneakers.
