Stolen Pixels #227: PUNishment

[DJShire]

I heard all the buzz about this

Can someone explain the Ninja Gaiden one? I didn't see anything on the cover that had anythign to do with "Guy Dan". Or is he just being a troll with that one?

It's a pronunciation thing. The cover is from the Ninja Gaiden series. For a long time, "Ninja Gaiden" was pronounced "Ninja Guy-DAN", with the accent on the second syllable. I think most younger people use the more correct (true to the Japanese pronunciation) GUY-den, accent on the first, short "e" sound in the second.


But for those of us who used the older and more mangled Americanized pronunciation, "Guy Dan" is a play on words.

Oh my god I feel bad for laughing at that. You win the thread.

Shamus, you disappoint me. We taught you better than this. Child-friendly puns? Preposterous!

...Oh god, hitting a new low XD

Don't worry, he can go lower.

OT: I don't get it Heh, worth a chuckle. Your name for this comic hinted at the content.

The Escapist must be a great place to work if they let you get away with this and then pay you for it.

Metal Gere Solid would certainly tap into a new gamer demographic.

Puns cause Cancer.

Its true, I read it in an online webcomic.

That was disproved recently. They took ten of the worst and no pun in ten did.

Of all the puns on this thread, this is the only one that made me groan. You, sir, win a cookie. A big one.

Ah, hell with it......ROFLMAO

Why does Metal Gere Solid make me think it might be some weird Guitar Hero clone?

Umm......where is the humor in this again?

 

[ShadesOfGrey84]

The Metal Gere one was mildly amusing.. the other two.. well, sometimes trying too hard kills the humour.

 

[Sodoff]

Not bad, but not funny enough for a Stolen Pixel. Also: not enough text.
