    Brilliant and obscure soundtracks!

    Looney Tunes Collector: Martian Alert and Martian Revenge on the Game Boy Color had really good soundtracks AND impressive cutscenes. They were pretty damn good games for the time. Mission Impossible on the GBC had some great tunes too. The best is at 2:19.

    Why do people reject evolution?

    Essentially because of this

    Funniest movies

    This doesn't get discussed enough. Normally when people talk about their favourite funny movies they don't make how funny it isthe primary factor in why it's their favourite, and list it because of some other quality or personally significant reason, so these lists are rarely what people think...

    eBay

    Being unemployed and potless I have to sell a ton of my stuff on ebay right now. I got all the stuff together and there's over 100 retro games and a lot of DVDs and Star Wars merchandise. One issue that's come up is I got an email today notifying me that this weekend is a zero insertion fees...

    Gameboy Games I should play

    I second that Astroboy Omega Factor and Advance Wars are excellent. My favourite GBA RPG is Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga. Very pretty, very fun RPG. Konami's Ninja Cop is an underrated classic. Zelda: Minish Cap if you like Zelda games. For the original Game Boy I recommend Wario...

    Poll: Will the colorado shooting make people not go see the Dark Knight Rises?

    From the tweets I've seen, there are definitely people stupid enough to believe that they could get shot if they go. The thing is, I assume this is basically what the gunman wanted. He wanted to taint the movie for people, or think of a way to make an impact on the world by being the guy that...

    Gay porn: an audience for females too?

    When I had a tumblr account for a brief period the people I saw reblogging gay porn were all women. I am straight, but something I noticed is that gay porn seems to generally be made to a much higher standard than straight porn. There are a lot less ugly/worn out actors, they don't waste so...

    Penny Arcade starts a Kickstarter for no good reason

    I can't believe nobody has linked this yet. Actually it took me a while to find this strip again because searching for strips tagged with "kickstarter" on the site's archives no longer yields results.

    Best Batman Movie

    I am tempted to say Mask Of The Phantasm. The animated series Joker has always been my favourite, although honestly while I do always put that film on when I want to show people 'the best Batman film they haven't seen', the ending has never satisfied me. How do people think Subzero with Mr...

    Help me make a good excuse for my bruises!

    Well it all went pretty well. I got a haircut before I met her then took her to a good thai buffet in central London. She didn't actually ask about the bruise until we were in a coffee shop hours later, but it had been bugging her. So I jokingly said the Fight Club line then came out with the...

    Help me make a good excuse for my bruises!

    No, it's not. It's an extremely dumb thing I did out of boredom.

    Help me make a good excuse for my bruises!

    Hello! No, this post is not about covering up any sort of domestic abuse. I have a bit of a problem. yesterday a girl that I assumed wasn't going to speak to me again called me after weeks and said she wanted to hang out today. I met her a couple of months ago on the train and she took my...

    Recommend a horror movie

    Here's some of my favourites Evil Dead 2. Watching the first is not necessary, the first 7 minutes of the film "remakes" the events of the first. Very funny and one of the best horror movies ever made. Tesis. This is a spanish thriller by one of their best directors. University student...

    Things you found out about your parents that shocked you

    Man, Humongous Entertainment games were fucking awesome. I liked the Pajama Sam and Spy Fox ones best as they were slightly more challenging, but they all had great graphics, puzzles and voice work. Best edutainment series ever.
