Watch_Dogs: Quis Custodogiet Ipsos Custodoges

[MCerberus]

I think Canada exiles its terrible musicians here in revenge for Americans thinking Canada is "America's Hat"

I would have agreed with you at some point in my life, but Cryptopsy and other bands have made up for a lot of bad music. Seriously, there's something in the water in Canada that makes metal drummers go crazy...

 

[Erttheking]

I thought people generally liked Watch_Dogs.

Ah, but you see, Watchdogs is popular. Therefore it is overrated AAA shlock and everyone who bought it is an idiot. If they thought they enjoyed it, they were wrong.

They must not have the agricultural runoff and occasional massive chemical spill that makes the water supply so great in MURICA, drives them insane due to lack of FREEDOM.

Attending Nickleback concerts seems like a legit reason to murder someone to me.

And this is why Erin Stout is my hero.

Never made it as a wise man,
Couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing.
Tired of living like a blind man,
Sick of sight without a sense of feeling.

And this is how you remind me...
This is how your remind me
Of why I just got clubbed!

These five words in my head say "ow ow ow my head!"

Seriously though, he's a real psychopath, even if you try to be a "good guy", most missions involve being a complete asshole.

Something we tend to ignore in our heroes. Hell, I've seen Greg House defined as "Chaotic Good" so many times I sort of want to burn all the D&D books.

Then again, Nickleback concerts are probably dirt cheap.

I hear Nickelback got their name because if you paid with a dime, you got a nickel back.

And when I say "hear," I mean "made up because it's better than the real story."

When did Nickleback become such a big punching bag for the Internet?

When was their first single?

I think that is just the "intro" of the joke.

It might also be a play on the fact that the data is supposedly strung together randomly.

I thought people generally liked Watch_Dogs.

Seriously? Where have you been this past two weeks? It has been getting a lot of criticism, specially the PC version.

Well, it is generally well-liked/reviewed, especially on the current-gen consoles, but there are serious problems with the PC release. PC gamers with AMD/Radeon graphics cards are woefully disadvantaged when playing Watch_Dogs.

wow you can basically just replace "watchdogs" with nickleback" and the meanings never change.

 

[MetalMagpie]

Okay, this is something I've been wondering for a while now, since I don't really follow music that much:

When did Nickleback become such a big punching bag for the Internet?

*shrugs* Internet hatred is generally tied to mainstream popularity, so it's a compliment in a weird way. I personally quite like Nickelback, although I wouldn't bother seeing them live.

OT: This strip unfortunately made me think of Sophie Lancaster, who was beaten to death in a skate park, apparently just for being a goth (or a "mosher" as her attackers called her when they bragged to their friends about it).

look up Brian Deneke and find further reason to hate Texas.

short version, a few punks get jumped by a bunch of jocks, but hold their own against the larger number, the asshat jock Dustin Camp runs over Brian who dies in his brother's arms, but because it was a punk being killed by a jock in texas, he gets only probation. he got in more trouble for his violations than he actually did for MURDERING SOMEBODY. disgusting.

I think Pierce looks freaked out because he looked up Erin's info while she was beating up that Nickelback fan. But there's no need to beat up people who listen to Nickelback; they're punishing themselves enough already.



<__>

OK, I like their song, "Rock Star", and the video for it.

 

[gridsleep]

I'll wait for Watch Doges.

Yes, there are a couple three videos called Watch Doges but there are no doges in them, they are just play-throughs. That's a cheap lure. I want to see an actual doge parody of Watch Dogs. No, I'm not going to play the game in reality. I just want the parody.

Erin Stout, age 27, occupation: Video Games Journalist. Talks to video-game characters who aren't really there; sometimes throws consoles at people.

OK, I like their song, "Rock Star", and the video for it.

I like "Photograph", but that aside... well, a friend of mine told me how her favorite radio station played three Nickelback songs over each other and they matched up almost perfectly. Chad Kroeger knows his three chords and he's stickin' to 'em.

 

[Vegosiux]

After all that buildup, no WGDF comic? I'm disappointed and happy at the same time...

We could have one about NBCDF.

NBC standing for "Nickelback Concert", of course. That'd be fun.

 

[lacktheknack]

All right. Corey and Grey love Nickelback. Noted.

wat?

And here I was, thinking that people were getting better at getting the jokes...

 

[Rad Party God]

Wow. Such violent. Very Erin.

*gets looks*

Sorry...I saw "Doge" at the end of the title and had to do it.

Indeed, I was expecting something doge related. I am dissapoint.

 

[Roofstone]

I always freak out a bit when I see what kind of porn people buy online in Watch_Dogs..

 

[SirDerpy]

Who will watch doge the watch doges themselves?

Such profound. Much video game. Wow.

Now that the gene-pool-cleansing abilities of the hacking powers have been revealed to me, I realize now that I have been playing Watch Dogs the entirely wrong way.

I admit I've seen Nickelback... TWICE.

I swear, each time it was actually because I wanted to see Daughtry and Three Doors Down.

Never made it as a wise man,
Couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing.
Tired of living like a blind man,
Sick of sight without a sense of feeling.

These five words in my head say "ow ow ow my head!"

>.>

It's just like them
To be so bland.
Was waitin' on a better rock band.

This time I'm
Mis-take-en
FOR LENDING THEM AN EAR WORTH BREAKIN'!

And I've BEEN wrong!
I've BEEN down
To the bottom of every playlist!
These five words in my head
Say "Are they sounding good yet?"
