The internet is a place where anything can happen.

Czeltic Girl clued me in as Something Awful makes with the funny yet again.

Something Awful: Mixed up Movies

Oh. Good.

You scored as Mermaid.

Mermaid: Mermaids are also known as Sirens. These creatures were beautiful women who tricked sailors into becoming completely entranced by their haunting voices and found death soon after. Not all stories of Mermaids are about gentle loving sea people. They are mystical, magical, and extremely dangerous. They have a way about them that brings anyone they are around to seem enchanted. They are very mysterious creatures and to meet one… Would mean certain Death. Let the song of the Sea fill your soul, for you are a Mermaid.

What Mythological Creature are you?

1,000,000 noobs pwned

If you’re a geek — and I am — then these lads and ladies have some funny filmed vignettes to tickle your fancy.

Pure Pwnage

“Hot Shot City” “WoW is a Feeling” and “FPS Doug” are particularly good.

More Media Whoring.

This is a conversation from Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, one I’d like to have with some of my clients. I have no will to create, only to spew forth pre-manufactured genius from my Xerox machine of a brain.

Nick the Greek: What else does it come with?

Tom: It comes with a gold-plated Rolls Royce, as long as you pay for it.

Nick the Greek: I thought it included the amp.

Tom: It doesn’t include the amp. It doesn’t include the speakers. And it’s not supposed to include me getting the hump with your questions. You want it, Nick, you buy it.

Nick the Greek: Dunno. Seems expensive.

Tom: Seems? Well, this seems to be a waste of my time. That, my friend, is 900 nicker in any store you’re lucky enough to find one in. And you’re haggling over 200 pound? What school of finance did you come from Nick? “It’s a deal, it’s a steal, it’s Sale of the fucking Century!” In fact, fuck it Nick. I think I’ll keep it!

Nick the Greek: Alright alright, keep your Alans on!

[Peels off notes from his wad]

Nick the Greek: Here’s a ton.

Tom, Eddie: Jesus Christ!

Eddie: You could choke a dozen donkeys on that! And you’re haggling over one hundred pound? What do you do when you’re not buying stereos Nick? Finance revolutions?

Nick the Greek: 100 pound is still 100 pound.

Tom: Not when the price is 200 pound it’s not. And certainly not when you’ve got Liberia’s deficit in your skyrocket. Tighter than a duck’s butt you are. Now, let me feel the fibre of your fabric.

Book Cover Judging as a national pastime

Something Awful created these honest text book covers, and the RPG community responded with these Overly Honest RPG Book Covers. There’s a lot of repitition and extreme geekery, but interspersed genius, as is true of the commuity at large. Think of it as allegory.

Proliferated from Headless Hollow, a man of many talents and a great sense of humour, particularly since his work (or the stuff encased within his work) receives a great deal of ribbing.

Where is Buddha?

(A vignette in media quotations.)

Let me e’splain… No. There is too much. Let me sum up:1

My life happens to, on occasion, suck beyond the telling of it.2 Now that’s a hard motherfucking fact of life.3

No, I’m pretty fucking far from “OK.”3 But when you can’t run anymore, you crawl. When you can’t do that, you find someone to carry you.4 You gotta have your true friends by your side.5

But no one seemed to understand. In his heart he knew the artist must be true, but the legend of the rent was way past due.6 And I need just a little more silence, and I just need a little more time, the courage to pull away. There will be hell to pay.7

But then, if we never _take_ time, how can we ever have time?8
