Title: This is freaking AWESOME
Post by: frunK on 17 Feb 2008, 23:55
I figured this out after about 48 hours with no sleep and an acid flashback may have had something to do with it BUT IT WORKS.
Okay, download Europe - The final countdown if you don't already have it (WHICH YOU SHOULD!)
Go to youtube and open up OK Go - Dancing in the Backyard. Put youtube on mute. This is important.
Start playing Final countdown and wait for approximately 4.2 seconds and press play on OK Go.
Sit back and have your mind blown.

What is awesome/hilarious is that the new Weekly Comic Thread has only been up for three hours and it already has eleven pages.

Priceless.

The massive influx of newbies who registered just to post in there is sending the general intelligence level of the boards plummeting. Seriously, some of the posts in there hurt my head.

Oh my Jesus.

I was gonna say the same thing, but I didn't do that because of the fact that I myself am pretty new...

'the final countdown' is what i play to accompany every course i build on line rider (http://www.linerider.org/play.php).
wait, can i just hijack this and make this the line rider thread instead? i was really close to just starting a new thread for this game but maybe this works better.

yeah sure it got killed by third post...*sigh*
Did anyone even TRY it?

Good God, no. It involves Europe.
Title: Re: This is freaking AWESOME
Post by: frunK on 18 Feb 2008, 20:01
Whatever, Europe is just far too epic for your heathan mind to comprehend.

I am really tempted to now make "Calenlass - The Thread!" because most of the threads do suck tonight. We need a thread of awesome.

I tried it, and it doesn't do anything.
Title: Re: This is freaking AWESOME
Post by: tania on 18 Feb 2008, 20:08
i tried it and will save everyone three minutes of their time by saying it was completely unremarkable.
Title: Re: This is freaking AWESOME
Post by: frunK on 18 Feb 2008, 20:12
blargh, your doing it wrong, it should sync up perfectly.
Did you wait for 4.2 seconds into final countdown to hit play on the OK Go video?

A) I believe the word you want is "heathen."
B) I really hope when you said "epic" you meant "shitty" because that is the only thing that makes sense.

Also, she didn't say it didn't work. She said it was unremarkable. There's a huge difference between not working and just sucking.

For a second I forgot what this thread was originally about, and I was wondering why people were suddenly being so mean to Europeans.

Though, to be fair... your idea is better. Much better.
Title: Re: This is freaking AWESOME
Post by: thehollow on 18 Feb 2008, 20:31
the final countdown is great, mostly because every time I hear it I think of Gob. As a song, though, it's pretty terrible.
Title: Re: This is freaking AWESOME

C'mon, you gotta love final countdown. It's so bad it's awesome, like Adam West or Power Rangers.

I've got nothing against newbies (I am one, duh) but some of the posts in there were moronic. Firefox has a spell checker built in for a reason.

I now return you to your scheduled final countdown discussion.

It's so bad it's awesome, like Adam West or Power Rangers.

Don't forget Captain Planet.

That kind of reasoning went out with the 90s.

Or at least, it should have.

line rider (http://www.linerider.org/play.php).
wait, can i just hijack this and make this the line rider thread instead?

This thread fails pretty hard, can we please just talk about line rider? Because line rider is awesome.
Title: Re: This is freaking AWESOME
Post by: Spluff on 18 Feb 2008, 20:48
If by awesome you mean pointless and boring after about half an hour or so, then yes. Yes it is.

Snakes on a Plane

I am most likely wrong, but I thought that we did in fact have a line rider thread.

Considering you claim to have come across your li'l discovery under the influence of sleep madness and an acid flashback, you may want to pare down your expectations of reproducibility and universal interest a pinch there.

Yep, you've got it.  Isn't it fun?

The funniest thing about the Weekly Comic Talk threads are the people who don't know how to spell the names of major characters.  I swear, one page had no less than five references to someone named "Martin."  C'mon, people it's a comic.  You read it.

I have never played Line Rider.  I have not actually heard of it.  I am very out of the loop on games.
