Gotta give it to Yahtzee this time. Poignant. And quite sad how it hits on the reality that gaming glosses over. Love to my friends who were in the war and managed to keep on, and love to their families that kept them going. And to all soldiers with that emptiness in your eyes that breaks my heart to see.

Jim's was funny in his normal disturbing way.

Damn good showing from Yahtzee.

Jim... You need to talk with someone. Open the blinds, go for a walk, maybe write something that isn't full of creepy sexual connotations.

Yahtzee - That was poetry, filled with imagery, sadness and a decent poke at realism of war played out for entertainment.

Jim - oh Jim... That was Misery not poetry.

Jim, do you take pleasure in disturbing me? 'Cause you're very good at it. I think I'm going to have nightmares about your poem tonight.

I remember watching Lewis and Clark back in the nineties, the promos were the most amusing part.
So awesome when they both set eyes on the Pacific Ocean :)

Press X to ignore human decency and slash benefits for vets.

He's like a vampire. Only he feeds on awkwardness.

Jim's poems have gone from weird to creepy and now to outright psychotic. I don't know, I guess I just draw the line when you start throwing mutilation fantasy into your poetry.

I believe it. After this poem he's going to be very well fed.

Really do enjoy Yahtzee's. It was pretty thought provoking with a good message to consider.

And Jim's, man, that was creepy, but entertaining :p

Yahtzee's was absolutely brilliant - what an artful way to make the imagery of war and war-game clash.

I stopped watching by the time Jim mentioned slashing tendons. When Jim is good, he's great. I'm tired of the gross-out stuff, though.

Glad you're venting your displeasure of QTE's in a healthy manner, Yahtzee, rather than planning your "Press X to not die" murders.

As for you, Jim... Me thinks its time for you to take a trip to the "enchanted kingdom" for a well deserved rest.

Well, that's another weekly supplement of depression to go along with the one I already have. I'm sure this is going to end well.

Well those two poems were incredibly bleak. I predict that the "Press X to not die" murders will begin shortly.

Just when I thought Jim was going to do a "normal" poem about Superman actors, he pleasantly surprises me and reveals that he certainly hasn't gone soft on us.

Bravo to the both of you, as usual.

Yatzee's poem was a great satire. Very grim. Jim's part made me remember something he said in the last Jimquisition: "...I don't know why you think it's aproppiate to send this to Jimquisition's host..."

So first it was David Boreanaz and now Dean Cain? I wonder what 90s TV star will be next in Jim's creep-o-parade.
