Honestly, I'll only get into Minecraft when it's fifty years into the future and you can make photorealistic replicas of real-world structures.

[Paradox]

Mormel needs a small correction:

Portable wishwashers is a euphemism for another p-word, as I've learned today. A remnant from a really weird censoring system on another message board.

No, it was from the old chat room here.

ExcelsiorPrime has a quick one:

What about Ivor??

Only if your man's been gone for nigh on a year.

[Paradox]

Lightsabretooth doesn't believe????:

I'm pretty sure he knows exactly what he's doing. The crazy part is that you can watch one episode of that "Finding Bigfoot" show and you've seen them all.

*crickets in the darkness*
Moneymaker: Did you hear that
Other person: yeah, that sounded like a Squatch! Let's go over there!

Repeat 10 times
Closing scene, "well, we didn't find it again this time, but tune in next time, we totally are going to sit in the dark again all night long and listen to nature make noises that we're certain are Sasquatches!" Oh, and we yell and make noises that we pretend Sasquatches make because we are experts on this animal that has never ever been studied in any real way, ever!"

Heh, bad as that is, no one's worse than Bill Birnes on UFO Hunters.

"This guy says he saw a light in the sky! That's proof of aliens!"

And the science guys on his crew just shake their heads...

bert walks the walk and talks the talk:

we went to dinner on Friday (a Bennihana type place), and got talking to the geeky couple sitting next to us.

the Walking Dead came up, and when I referenced the comic, the Wife said to her Husband -- "see?? COMIC. . not this "Graphic Novel" hipster ****").

YAY! Well done. Not as good as "funnybooks" but close.

[Matt A]

Pretty sure I just won the GIF wars. Feeling pretty good about it.

Also, hey everybody. Long time no type.

[Paradox]

Yeoman thinks I'm psychic:

Did they ask him to stop doing so?

How should I know? I don't have access to his email box. I don't care anyway. That direction leads to "rules lawyering", something I despise and would make a bannable offense if I could.

[Paradox]

Matt A went matriarchal:

Pretty sure I just won the GIF wars. Feeling pretty good about it.

Also, hey everybody. Long time no type.

Heh, cute. Welcome "home", Matt!

It's very humid in SoCal and I am jealous.

I wouldn't living in SoCal with all the arcades you have out there.

Tacos are delicious.

Indeed they are

with mild or hot sauce?

I love hot sauce, not too hot I feel it stinging

I have no problem with any of these things but I've been thinking about this new era and I've come to the conclusion that it only works if all posters are honest, I don't think that is going to happen. On the old CBR certain posters wouldn't exactly discuss topics honestly; goalposts were moved, answers were provided but the questioner didn't like the answer and then would re ask, and re-ask, and re-ask. Dogpiling would result once posting styles were discovered. Now dogpiling is uncool and I am guilty of it myself but if the poster isn't technically breaking any forum posting rules then what can be done? I know the answer is to be mature and to not engage the poster but the nature of any message board is that someone who doesn't know the posters MO will engage and the process repeats ad nauseum...so, is there any answer for the rule following troll?

The solution is fire.

I think its way past time the Princess posted her "Getting to know you" thread 2.0.
Nothing like collecting a little data on potential victims now that the pool is a little deeper.

Ooh, yes, I very much approve of this!

Guardians of the Galaxy, Cosmic Avengers is awesome.
and I showed my FCBD Mouse Guard to my supervisor and now she wants to read the other collected volumes I have...one of us, one of us.

Haha, yes! The first one is free...

I think it really is true that for most people, at least, it is just a matter of finding the comic that appeals to them. There should be a comic out there for almost anyone!

Indeed. Most people just don't want to wade through all the crap to find it... which is why having nerdy friends...

or *ahem* listening to the right sort of podcast *ahem*...

...is so nice.

Haha! She totally wins!

So what is Annhiliation and Annhilition Conquest? Sell me on it.

It's a big cosmic science fiction adventure featuring a bunch of Marvel's space-based heroes. It helps to solidify the whole glorious mess into something more coherent, while never losing sight of the fact that it's there to tell a rollicking space opera adventure story.

I wonder how bendis is going to explain quills escape and riders death in his OS tie-in GOTG?

[Alvarez]

I wouldn't living in SoCal with all the arcades you have out there.

I live a couple blocks from one of the most popular tournament arcades in los Angeles and the San Gabriel valley.
Super Arcade. It's really friggin awesome.

I've never referred to them as "funnybooks". . but I've always called them Comics!

If he's even dead.
