That's right. The Hillary Clinton RPG. She looks like this:

It's only like 15 minutes long though. Best 15 minutes in videogame history, however. The link above is the download, if you're too lazy to do that there's a Let's Play in Laissez's Faire:

But the replay value is phenomenal. It's like you never want to quit playing, even if you lose!

Also, MC is far too forgiving in regards to music.

Oh, I'm tolerant of mediocrity in the background (I had them playing while I was focused on other things). Most of this stuff is better than Lunar 2 music anyway <_< >_>
(Granted, the worst of each is about equal--Doop has one note, sometimes two for most of the song. Same with one of Lunar 2's dungeon themes...).

There is a level of absolute soulless music you can get that only shows up with the truely generic song.

Bah, zombies are people too!

Anyhow....

Der Terrorists appear to have uh used Fallout 3 concept art in their propaganda or something. I am still trying to work out if it is for real of if it is just epic fail that is the Australian's balanced news coverage on the whole terrorist thing.

Edit - http://www.news.com.au/story/0,23599,23775429-2,00.html For the news story. It is kind of meh. So just weird aside generic "REMEMBER TO BE MILDLY SCARED" news story.

Want to sign up for a site without giving out your real email addy? Then create a temp one here which will expire in 10 minutes, just long enough to sign up for something, and never have to worry about getting spammed for it. Neat idea.

Bugmenot.com also has a good insta-mail system for stuff like that.

Since I am not in IRC where I would normally do my Wikipedia mocking I will do it here.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bielefeld_Conspiracy

An internet meme thing about a joke. Bielefeld is a boring town in Germany which people joke does not exist.

Quote

Despite all the efforts, the city still has a solid reputation — for obscurity. This obscurity is at a degree seldom found in a city its size, and had made it the butt of jokes even prior to the rise of this myth[citation needed].

CITATION REQUIRED TO AUTHENTICATE THE NON-NOTABLE STATE OF THE TOWN.

So it looks like the whole Garfield can actually be funny thing if you take it down the surrealist path has been continuing more since the random panel and remove garfield text boxes thing.

The really strange thing is that I first heard the "Bielefield Conspiracy" gag in an episode of Garfield, except they used Wyoming.

I love this.

EDIT: Moreso than the more elaborate Lasagnacat stuff, I should say. I'm a sucker for the simplicity, I guess.

Wait, has Lasagna Cat not been posted yet? Because I swear this is the first time it has and if so then holy shit we really dropped the ball on that one. My favorite is the YEEEE HAWWWW one, on another note.

I've posted lasagna cat before. Granted, I post too damn many links already, so it's understandable if it passed under the radar.

Yeah, one of the downsides to being the local depository of information is just that. Also we hate you and ignore you anyway.
