I can't believe someone had the chance to shoot a marketing executive and get away with it and didn't do it.

I think all blue chip companies should make sure that everyone about from the marketing department are packing heat at all times. Packing heat and drunk. Packing heat and drunk and playing Modern Warfare 2 single player 15 hours a day.

And the marketing executives have to dress like invading Russians.


And every 30 minutes someone shouts WOLVERINES!

This goes way beyond dumbass...even beyond dumbasses...obviously neither of them saw any potential problems with this plan. I hope whoever gets the bail money is more sensible; I would hate to see a story about someone who showed up at the bank with road flares and a stopwatch strapped to their chest, demanding all the money from their own account. Oh wait, I would love to see that story...LoL!

Hey ad departments, thanks for throwing fuel on the juvenile, stupid, disruptive, gamer-stereotype fire. We really appreciate it, jackasses.

Oh my god, I REALLY want to know what the endgame of that stupidity was supposed to be. Seriously, how else did they think it was going to go down!?

I'm not even sure I understand what their big plan was...

"Chester dressed up as a biker, wearing a black mask, and walked through the one of the campus's buildings carrying two metal objects as he yelled for everyone to move into the lobby."

And then what would he have done? If people came to the lobby, what great plan of his would be revealed?

I'm unsure if it should count as a success or failure that they didn't manage to qualify for a Darwin Award.

Enjoy your obligatory facepalm image.
Do i read it bottom-up or top-down? In otherwords, is she looking at you in disbelief and then facepalming or is she facepalming and then looking at you in disbelief? I'm leaning towards the first one since this seems pretty japanese...

''It hurt itself in it's confusion!''
I don't know of any culture that reads from the bottom up so obviously it is top down. Though I suppose one could read it from the bottom-upwards and it would still get the point across. Also, It's pretty Japanese because Pokemon is from Japan, so naturally most of the fan art work will follow Japan's anime standards such as the use of large eyes and flat chested girls.
Japan reads from bottom up. Or in the case of manga, bottom right, up to top left. And the reason i was making the assumption ''seems pretty Japanese'' is because Pokemon is of Japanese origin, as you say. I have the feeling this is a Japanese artist, and it would seem to make more sense to me if this read bottom-up.

.....anime has flat chested girls?

I see most girls of cleavage age tend to look like this. Dawn is 10 so she won't have much, but some. This character(orihime) is only 15.

Well the size of girls breasts differ mostly from genre of animes. Large-breasted females coming from bleach is a shounen-type while flat chested girls seem to dominate more of the shoujo/magical girl/slice of life animes.

I've never read my manga from the bottom right of the page to the top left. I've always read how it is depicted here [http://www.wikihow.com/Image:Manga-reading-direction-567.png]

Also we totally have to stop talking about this off topic subject before we both get put on probation. If you wanna keep going make a thread something and PM a link for it. That way we can get some other peoples opinion on the subject.

I couldn't agree more. This'll be my last reply, then. My mistake about the reading thing. That was what i was told and i read manga in that way. Often having to look over the page again to make sure i was following things correctly ,_,'

As badly as I'd think? Well my first reaction was "oh my god somebody shot them out of 'self defense'" so it really didn't go nearly as badly as I thought it would.
