Wow, trying that extraordinarily hard to be loquacious and then following it up with a 4chan meme has got to be the most counter-productive use of the English language I've ever witnessed. If you're going to lead by example, PICK A DIRECTION.HT_Black said:Escapist, I am dissappoint. Very disappoint indeed.
I'd get that thing recalibrated or replaced.AnAngryMoose said:I hope to God my Sarcasmograph is just broken and he's not being series or else he's a fucktard.
Amazing how just after that post, there was this post.CoverYourHead said:Meh, I got a chuckle. Though I reckon some people will miss the sarcasm and rage over this.

Thats...wow.
I don't really like Pac-Man either, but still, this guy sounds like a complete and utter wanker.
Also:
"Modern games should be played in online multiplayer."?
Way to go there and make a completely false, inaccurate, uneducated, all-encompassing statement without merit that can easily be torn down with the most basic of examples there, dipshit.
To me, this sounds like the ramblings of a 14 year-old ritalin-popping high-school drop-out with way too much time on his hands, who spends half his time hiding his porn-stash from his mum and the other half swearing at people over CounterStrike voice-chat.
To David Hill, and all who think likewise:
Get a fucking life, you sad losers.
Oh come on guys, if you actually read it, of course it's a joke, I find it hilarious.BlueInkAlchemist said:SNIP

That made my day. Thank's for posting this.10) The CEO of Rockstar Games said he doesn't really like Pac Man anymore. Read this out of context quote, "I don't really" [like Pac Man anymore].
Agreed. Sarcasm that makes people believe a bit too much that you're serious is BAD SARCASM.Psycodiablo said:I see that the lad is trying to be funny, but he just isn't. Stuff like that is just boring and old at this stage.
See, here's the thing. B&BH is lowbrow, but it's GOOD lowbrow, and good anything tends to be good.danpascooch said:Oh gee, sorry the humor isn't sophisticated enough for you.

And you mention it's a step UP from B&BH, yet say it's bad, but you find B&BH hilarious. That makes NO sense whatsoever.
God I hate elitists.

Har har.
