    Gunman holding hostages in Martin Place (Sydney - Australia)

    I always love threads like this, where people with little to no concept of police tactics sit behind a keyboard and come up with all the ways they could have done it better than highly trained professionals. Because of course you know exactly where marksmen were placed, how good of a shot they...

    LoadingReadyRun: Math of the Montage

    It's quantum mechanics... OT not a bad sketch though I think the ending suggested earlier in this thread would've worked better.

    Spongebob Not Good Enough For Ohio Cemetery

    There are two sides to this really: The rational: an employee made a mistake at the graveyard, they're being more than fair by offering to pay for both stones, it doesn't really fit in with a graveyard etc. and The emotional: the poor family, ex service person, it was what they wanted...

    Finally completed FTL

    yeah I've been using boarding parties but it's not easy to balance keeping them doing their thing and stopping the enemy ship tearing yours apart.

    The Ouya Scam

    Simply kickstarter is not amazon. You are not putting money in and then getting your product out. You are investing your money with a company and hoping that investment matures. I have a feeling people's inability to grasp this concept is what will kill kickstarter eventually, pity it's a nice...
