This is freaking AWESOME
« 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.

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.

the final countdown is great, mostly because every time I hear it I think of Gob. As a song, though, it's pretty terrible.

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.

If by awesome you mean pointless and boring after about half an hour or so, then yes. Yes it is.

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.
