Yeah, I think there was another site that just took out Garfield's thought balloons and had a similar effect.

Are you thinking of Arbuckle?

No, it's the same strips with the thought bubbles edited out. I think it might have gotten taken down. Shame, I preferred it to GmG.

I actually turned up some of them searching for that today, since yes, they are hilarious. Don't think there's a site dedicated to them any more (legal issues? I dunno) but I found a bunch in this thread here.

Jon is too pathetic for words.

The scare quotes around "rape" are retarded, other than that....uh, yeah. Pretty much.

Cotigo · « **Reply #382 on:** April 21, 2009, 04:03:19 PM »

But don't you know men can't be raped ever so it's only sort of a rape because the victim had a penis

Something neat. The human genome people are auctioning off a full genome sequencing for charity. You also get a full, comprehensive analysis of it.

Huh, interesting article/anecdote about the lifespan of an internet community. Surely this could never happen to the DL! ...right? *hope*

Almost IotD material? It sounds like an alarmist crusade attempt against video games again. While they didn't bash the DS as heavily as they could have, they failed to mention that there's no method of sending pictures of yourself to someone else through Pictochat... which wouldn't be so bad if they didn't spend 90% of the report talking about a guy trying to get pictures of a underaged girl through the device...

There may be some DS game that allows something like this, I don't know, they were being pretty misleading about how potent Pictochat's pedo-enabling could be... >.>;;

To this day, I still miss RPGduels. That forum was so fun to mock. Sadly, I can't remember any of the topics, only that they were so laughable and likely all written by one person!

A long story. I'm lazy, so I'll let someone else answer.

(This useless post brought to you by too much free time.)

EDIT: Having actually read the article now, though, I can say that something of the sort already happened and, well, we're still here.

In the very beginning of the DL one of its staff members did some shady shit and got drummed out. So he went and formed his own dueling league. Which failed miserably.

Damn, and I thought I got a good deal for $24. Anybody who enjoys fun should be all over this just for Portal.
