Jack Thomson - u lose

[Sideshow]

I try not to put everything I see at Penny Arcade up here, because I figure most of us read PA anyway, but I think this is deserving of special attention. I can't be bothered going for the links again, so I'll just point you to my LiveJournal, and you can go from there.

DAve - do you know what Child's Play is? You think we could get GUNS involved?

Heard about this 4-5 days ago on CAD.

One link is to the comic, the other is a screenshot of a possible game made for Mr Thompson.

Edit: Just noticed that that the guy put the giraffes into the screenshot. Class.

shit, that game looks awesome!

Updates to this can be found on PA (http://www.penny-arcade.com), in response to Jack being a cock (and having an out of date email address on his site) I've ordered myself an "I Hate Jack Thompson" shirt.

Decided to treat myself. =P

I looked at the T-Shirt, but it was a bit boring (all it is are the words 'I hate Jack Thompson'), so I didn't really want it. But nice! anyway :)

It's simple and it gets the message across.

I like it for that. =)

I just felt a bit cheated - Gabe is such a good artist, I was expecting some awesome design. Instead... well, 10 minutes in paint shop pro, and a fiver to your local T-Shirt printing company will net you the same thing.

But then you're not buying from Thinkgeek (always cool) and you're not helping PA (always cooler). =P

On a completely unrelated note I don't think I'll make it to the QMU tonight either, I can barely walk (hence why I'm sitting at home instead of in Physics) and my head feels all weird. What does the flu feel like? (haven't had it in so damn long that I can't actually remember. =/) I'm getting a bad feeling about this. -_-

[DAve]

If you've got the flu, then you won't care if a £50 note passed by your window.
Or to put it another way, if quake4 dropped through your letterbox, you probably wouldn't be bothered about installing it.

You've probably just got a bad cold. I had that the past few days and my ballance went all wrong.

Unless you've got bird flu. Have you been seeing any birds in the past few days?

No, no birds anywhere near me... =P

Congratulations, you're going to die. :)

Don't make me rant at you about the overhyped nonsense that is birdflu. =P

I'll say this much: Deus Ex.

Lol, the feds have finally released their biblical plague that they've been cooking up!

I always thought there'd be more locusts though.... :cry:

Loved the recent Private Eye comments on birdflu:

Turkey gives all clear for bird flu

Epidemic of birdflu might hit 750,000 articles in papers

might not be exact quotes but close enough.
