What made you laugh today??

The latest ReinXeed silly song. Reading the lyrics is compulsory I wish I could kick out such amazing melodious songs on a whim Mr Nippleson, especially, should appreciate how it ends

 

[1928]

Wow, that's actually brilliant! This reminds me of how Theocracy's singer would make Christmas tunes each year... And yes, I quite enjoyed the ending !

 

[Cronopio]

That song isn't exactly new, but it's still brilliant!

Hahaha!

Not to piss on anyone's parade, but I found this to be pretty funny:

Damnit. The man's got a point. Armchair revolutions and slacktivism are a drop in the ocean. I'm guilty of it. i think I'd do more if I was American though. Occupy & anti-SOPA/PIPA stuff is right and doing things for the right reasons, they just have awful execution.

There's something to be said for the hypocrisy of decrying ineffectual online activity and then proposing a boycott. Boycotting will be just as much a drop in the ocean because people are too lazy, have it too good and don't like to shift their gluttonous arses out of the rut an instant convenience society has created for them. No one will, en masse, sustain a boycott anywhere near the amount of time and in the numbers needed to make a difference.

That said, there was apparently a massive surge of phone calls and letter writing to senators and representatives, so not everybody settles for the easy way out, i.e. a click on Facebook.

Funny but good

Funny, well-written and some very good points made.

Spot the spelling fail:

[Power_Metal_Dom]

I just want to assure people that spelling wasn't a mistake from my department!

 

[1928]

How does that go unnoticed?!

 

[Kingface]

LOL @ the spelling fail! I've just checked the Box of my copy of the game and it has the 'Resident Evil: Revelations' logo on the side rather than just plain writing. Why didn't they just do that for the (American by the looks of things) Boxes?

WMML: Caught a bit of an episode of The Simpsons I've seen a few times before earlier on TV, the one where Homer has the repressed memory of discovering a Dead Body when he was young. This section made me LOL as it always does:

Mr. Burns: What are you doing in my corpse hatch?
Wiggum: Mr. Burns, you're under arrest!
Mr. Burns: Did I say "corpse hatch"? Uh... I meant "innocence tube"!

How To Tell The Difference Between Metal Genres

* THRASH METAL
The protagonist arrives, fights the dragon, saves the princess and fucks her.

* HEAVY METAL
The protagonist arrives on a Harley, kills the dragon, drinks a few beers and fucks the princess.

* FOLK METAL
The protagonist arrives with some friends playing accordions, violins, flutes and many more weird instruments, the dragon falls asleep (because of all the dancing). Then all leave…….. without the princess.

* VIKING METAL
The protagonist arrives in a ship, kills the dragon with his mighty axe, skins the dragon and eats it, rapes the princess to death, steals her belongings and burns the castle before leaving.

* DEATH METAL
The protagonist arrives, kills the dragon, fucks the princess and kills her, then leaves.

* BLACK METAL
The protagonist IS the dragon, dwells in the heart of the night with in a castle full of hellhounds and eternal flames. He kills the sassy knight, fucks the noble steed and sacrifices the princess to Satan.

* GORE METAL
The protagonist arrives, kills the dragon and spreads his guts in front of the castle, fucks the princess and kills her. Then he fucks the dead body again, slashes her belly and eats her guts. Then he fucks the carcass for the third time, burns the corpse and fucks it for the last time.

* DOOM METAL
The protagonist arrives, sees the size of the dragon and thinks he could never beat him, then he gets depressed and commits suicide. The dragon eats his body and the princess as dessert. That’s the end of the sad story.

* PROGRESSIVE METAL
The protagonist arrives with a guitar and plays a solo of 26 minutes. The dragon kills himself out of boredom. The protagonist arrives to the princess’ bedroom, plays another solo with all the techniques and tunes he learned in the last year of the conservatory. The princess escapes looking for the ‘HEAVY METAL’ protagonist.

* GLAM METAL
The protagonist arrives, the dragon laughs at the guy’s appearance and lets him enter. He steals the princess’ make up and tries to paint the castle in a beautiful pink colour.

* NU METAL
The protagonist arrives in a run down Honda Civic and attempts to fight the dragon but he burns to death when his moronic baggy clothes catch fire.

* GRINDCORE
The protagonist arrives, screams something completely undecipherable for about two minutes and then leaves…

* Gothic Metal
The princess in a velvet costume starts singing soprano. The protagonist completes the duet when he shows up, they sing while the dragon plays the flute. Suddenly the dragon swallows up the pipe and accidentally scorches the beauty and the protagonist, and then he suffocates to death. All their souls are damned in hell for eternity.

* Industrial Metal
The protagonist arrives wearing greasy overcoat, makes an obscene gestures towards dragon, and gets escorted out of fairy tale land by security guards.

* Speed Metal
Suddenly there is a short solo, the dragon is confused; someone’s screaming weird stuff; the princess realizes she’s been deflowered; the dragon and the princess are still looking for the one who caused this.

* Christian Metal
The protagonist rides in on his way home from Church and sings a mushy power ballad to the dragon about how much Jesus loves him and that the dragon should turn to Him. The Dragon is immediately converted, and when the princess wants to ‘thank’ the protagonist he replies, “Sorry, but I don’t believe in having sex before marriage.”

* SYMPHONIC METAL
The protagonist enters the lair of the dragon with a full choir and orchestra, and the princess sings notes so high-pitched that she makes the dragon go deaf. The dragon tries to burn them all to death, but all of the members of the choir sing so loudly and unified, that it creates a protective bubble, which only grows in strength from the lead guitarist’s solo later in the song, and the flames bounce back and the dragon ends up killing itself while everyone escapes.

Harada, Producer of the Tekken series, has come in for much criticism due to the use of new Voice Acting. Read here his incredible reaction. What a lad!

Also, why would so many people complain about Voice Acting for a Fighting Game?

 

[1928]

That is fantastic. Of all the things to complain about, voices would have to rank near the bottom on things that matter in a fighting game.

I pre-ordered Stratovarius' latest live album from Play.com and today I received a package from them, with the Receipt inside showing the description of said item.

However the CD inside is actually Jack Savoretti - Take Me Home!

Guess I'll be exchanging that then!
