That comic starts out slow, but the third panel is hilarious!
"The numbers clearly show that Jack Thompson eats paint chips."
Switchblade:
hmmm... have a read of THIS ONE.
EDIT: oh, this is off Mister Thompson's website:
--- Quote ---Jack Thompson doesn't want your money. He isn't asking you to be a client. What he wants is for you to get up out of your chair because you're as mad as Hell about the video game industry's assault on our children and you're not going to take it anymore!
These people will not stop. They mentally molest minors for money, which is the root of all sorts of evil.
--- End quote ---
Does anybody else think that, on the basis of that last sentence, we should be questioning his sanity?
neomang5:
Apparently, someone created some incarnation of his game (based off a mod of the GTA:San Andreas engine, of all the irony) and announced it. It's become fairly popular among many players, so naturally, he found out about it.
He proved, undeniably, that he is the worlds greatest douche.
He claims his entire idea (including the charity donation) was "a form of satire." No joke, he not only refused to acknowledge the irony and humor of the game, and how it made fun of him, but also is NOT donating a goddamn penny to ANY charity. Wow Jack, you're fucking hilarious.
Thankfully, Gabe and Tycho of Penny Arcade, being the wonderful people that they are, matched his donation. $10,000 to Paul Eibler's choice of charities. They donated it in Jack's name too.

See- Gabe and Tycho just got even cooler in my eyes. That's just a slap in the face to Thompson- and a nice donation to charity.
