This may have been posted ages ago but what the hell. I only discovered it recently. Good take on an old meme!

Havoc 09-13-2011 11:32 AM

I recognize it from school, does it have a meaning at all?

STM 09-13-2011 11:50 AM

It's super S...

Nope! Well, no meaning anybody knows. It's just this thing kids draw and have allegedly been drawing since the 40s.

JennyGenesis 09-13-2011 01:03 PM

Looks too satanic to be from the 40's!

STM 09-13-2011 01:08 PM

Satanic? It's an S not an inverted pentacle with a goat's head on it.

Crashpunk 09-13-2011 01:23 PM

Oh gawd I remember that! Every title on a poster my mate made always had that S on it.

Just do what I do, DON'T REPLY but I do admire your polite nature though.

I normally just ignored guys like that, but his repeated messaging and regular appearance of his penis in my inbox was getting on my nerves.

Chaos theory at work in economics!

It's the main character's favourite drink, and sales jumped through the roof just after the last episode aired because of people buying Dr Pepper in tribute.

Nate 09-14-2011 05:47 AM

How is that Chaos Theory? Just sounds like profitable product placement to me.
EDIT: Surely that plot is share market rather than sales? I don't think they would publish daily sales in such fine detail, let alone so soon.



I love this article. A member of Anonymous has been forced not to use his real name in online communication. Irony ensues!

I don't believe Dr Pepper is a sponser as he drinks Dr Pepper in the original game, it doesn't appear on the sponsor list aaaand it's not actually called Dr Pepper, there's a letter different or something.

It's like when A Streetcar Called Desire came out and tee-shirt sales spiked because Marlon Brando looked so damn good in one. Except obviously not to the same extent.

Friend: Eugh, Maths is so gay.

Me: -_-

*Two seconds later*

Me: ... If Maths is gay and rulers are straight, what's architecture? Bi?

Also,

I knew you were going to say that. :p

I may be playing a bit with definitions, but I think it's still product placement if products are sold because they featured in a show. Even if you say it's not product placement and invent a new term to cover it, what does it have to do with Chaos Theory?

T-nex 09-15-2011 08:55 AM

Cos Dr Pepper is chaotically theoretic.

Ridg3 09-15-2011 10:39 AM

The only reference that I could find that concerns this, is the logo for Sacred Reich, though I doubt it is and the band is actually really unimaginative;

MeechMunchie 09-15-2011 11:40 AM

My friend's Year 5 Literacy books were covered in those things. I just drew spaceships and dinosaurs and occasionally whales.

In the 41st millenium, both genders are treated equally (expendably).

@ S thing: I remember getting taught that when I was in Year 5 or 6. And by taught, I mean by another student rather than our teacher. She was too busy making and playing board games with us, rather than actually doing her job.

T-nex 09-16-2011 03:35 AM

Dynamithix 09-16-2011 04:28 AM

Where the hell do I keep finding these videos.


Nate 09-16-2011 04:31 AM

Ridg3 09-16-2011 10:38 AM

STM 09-16-2011 02:24 PM

I owe Dynamithix a jar of honey for all those free games he gave me, do you still want it bro? I might be able to get it to you since I just extracted it all.

Dynamithix 09-16-2011 02:39 PM

Oh that humble bundle thing, eh, I don't need your honey, haha. (No offense!)

STM 09-16-2011 02:49 PM

Well the offers there but if you want it you need to let me know in like a day lol.

Now I remember I have a free copy of Aaaa!: A Reckless Disregard for Gravity

Phylum 09-17-2011 05:32 AM

I've been wanting Frozen Synapse for a while now. I fear being the 3rd person to ask I won't get it.

MeechMunchie 09-17-2011 05:48 AM

But you will, because you're my favourite.

No offense intended to Crash and Ridge-three.

What a great show.

Nah, not really.

EDIT: FUCK, I JUST WASTED MY 5000th POST ON YOUR SHITTY ANIME YOU WHORE.

MeechMunchie 09-17-2011 09:28 AM

This game has science that actually looks like science.

FACT: Most research scientists are still using Windows 98.
