I like MegaTokyo, I liked Return To Sender but then it stopped, and I like Gunnerkrigg Court but I never read it for some odd reason. I assume I don't have to mention Concerned or Alien Loves Predator, and I've talked enough about Order of the Stick. I quite liked that comic SisterCheeba did before he stopped. Does he hate us now?
I also remember reading a relatively short one about some Asian-Americans, and one of them was getting someone elses mail and replying to love letters she was getting, and one of them drew Woody Woodpecker in the sand. I can't remember what that was for the life of me.

I like the Dimrill stuff before he went all commercial and shit. Sell out.

He is funnier than Shakespeare, even live Shakespeare.

I'll never forget. The first time I caught a fire diver in my bucket, I flew around for 20 angry minutes trying to figure out how to get rid of him so his annoying noises would stop. I think it was only when I had to go and put out a fire that I realized dumping water from the bucket would cause him to be dumped too.

Oh man, that comic is making me laugh again just thinking about it.

I was trying to remember the comic that I look at every once in a while just because I like the art style.
Turns out it was Tiny Kitten Teeth. It goes from psychedelic to cute.

You're all very kind and all that. That muppets dream went on for about 900 hours, it seemed. The muppet was moving more like Sadako in Ring 0, though, but instead of the bone cracking it was making trumpeting and drill sounds. Glad you noticed the SimCopter sounds.


*Chortle*

Just seen this, it is genius. :D *Applause*

I remember Sim Copter, the demo was very generous, the controls were very poor, the Wagner was quite satisfying, the graphics were terrible.

They're never laugh out loud funny, but amusing.


OH, PA is utterly bemusingly rubbish though.

So Penny Arcade made a shit-bunch of cash on Kickstarter to make a show called Automata, based on this lovely bit of noir, but with actors and shit.

Well, it got released to kickstarter backers (like me) a few minutes ago, so no doubt it's available as a free gift from your local furniture shop.

I don't know if it's any good or not. But I will!

Wow, I just had a strange memory burst and decided to check on Penny Arcade and they're still going. 26 Years! I don't like their current art style, all their heads are odd shapes.
