Real life Sly Cooper!

I find it odd how most raccoons seemingly aren't scared of humans. This person must feed them regularly or something. Apparently they wreck everything, bite for no reason, and make terrible pets because you have to keep them stimulated.

Cool photos of the Venus transit on June 6th. And planes. It's a shame it was only visible in the UK for about half an hour at sunrise if it wasn't cloudy and you had a clear view of the horizon:

And while I'm at it, I'll annoy people by slipping this in here and plugging my stuff. Project will be a year old this month:

That Rupture Farms looks amazing. I want to explore it.

Have you worked out the interior of the plant yet?

MOD EDIT: Mein Gott, the page-stretch! Click on it to see full size.

Haha, that's funny, though if it were to happen in reality, the movie would be re-released with the words super or ultimate inserted at the beginning of the title and will feature a few more video game characters.

Mr. Bungle 06-08-2012 08:23 AM

I just realized how massive that image is. Can a mod shrink it down for me? I have no idea how to do that stuff.

Crashpunk 06-08-2012 11:55 AM

haha! I wish that picture was displayed just like that in the actual conference. Would of make E3 much better :)

Done. Take a look at what I've done so that you know for next time.

EDIT: Here's some true WTF I just found. Guy missed his cat after he was killed by a car, so he had him taxidermied... Then as an art piece, put the pelt over an RC helicopter frame.

I mean the cat is far, far beyond caring and it's just as disrespectful to an animal as a pair of shoes or a fur coat, but even so... That's a very weird way to preserve your beloved pet.



And intelligent crow is intelligent:

Just a reminder that there's an entire discussion thread about this, but I will say that I'm learning about how both meat processing plants and oil refineries work and have a good plan of what to include in the interior to hopefully give the impression of a functioning factory with an Oddworldian vibe... Although I don't know what that'll be like when rendered with a limited set of re-skinned Minecraft blocks.

The entire Kickstarter video is pretty awesome, too.

Joe's probably interested, what with his love of poking men with long, solid appendages. Also fencing.

I read my spam mail occasionally.

What's up? Do you want to see this free f.a.q. that gils dont want you to see? http://(Link).com Ever yours, [ENG_FIRST_NAME] Nelson

It's been such a long time. It is a free video that explains you how to earn some woman. http://(Link).com As ever, [ENG_FIRST_NAME] Gilson

Hi! I have got a guide for you now that we discover you are to going to love. http://(Link).com Faithfully yours, [ENG_FIRST_NAME]

While I do worry about my gills and their ability to earn unspecified quantities of woman, I must admit I find the moniker [ENG_FIRST_NAME] curious.

i've been going through these whenever i want to kill time. i used to read the Goosebumps books as a kid. this bloke is basically re-reading and writing up a review for each one in the series. i think he's pretty fucking funny.

Mac Sirloin 06-10-2012 04:20 PM

Oh god I loved goosebumps when I was little. In a similar vein, here's Every episode of full house reviewed in chronological order. I never watched full house when I was little (we were expressly forbidden from watching Married with children, Full House and Power Rangers(??????)) so it's pretty funny.

Mr. Bungle 06-10-2012 04:31 PM

I loved Goosebumps. I was terrified of the TV show when I was a kid. The episode with the plant-man in the basement disturbed me.

He was the second person I sent the link to. :D

Mac Sirloin 06-10-2012 06:21 PM

I remember the cover for The Beast from the East always creeping me the hell out. Also, I used to think that The Werewolf of Fever swamp was a super-rare collectible or something because our school's library didn't get it until like 2002. Also it was thicker than the other books.

There was a choose your own adventure line of Goosebumps that I loved to borrow from the school library for months on end. It had a pissed off catperson on the cover and was either about a cat circus, a cat island or a cat jungle of some variety.

I liked Goosebumps. I remember The Haunted Mask II and The Curse of Camp Jellyjam. Oh, and Egg Monsters from Mars. Yeah, they were entertainining.

Ridg3 06-11-2012 02:57 AM

Yep, it's weird that Goosebumps is mentioned. Yesterday I was looking up Ripper, some FMV game from 1996 and it reminded me of Goosebumps: Escape from Horrorland.

I want to play that game again.

DarkHoodness 06-11-2012 03:41 AM

That video of Gabe forging a crowbar was awesome. :P But speaking of Half-Life, this media update from a certain mod was just released after a year of no updates...

I mean check it out, I don't care if it's been in production since 2004, this looks so goddamned sexy:






JennyGenesis 06-11-2012 12:54 PM

I'm beginning to wonder if anybody tried to make an insurance claim back then...

I've been waiting for some updates about Black-Mesa for a long time, The screens look amazing. I can't wait for it!

MA 06-11-2012 02:51 PM



hahathis fucking prick makes me laugh

Dynamithix 06-11-2012 03:00 PM

The only youtube poop I have laughed at.

Also, this guy is pretty hilarious.



This is basically a montage of his earlier videos, he goes to different cons and interviews people in an awkward way. It's fucking funny.

MA 06-11-2012 03:20 PM

he's fucking good man nice one. i just looked at some of his oter stuff.

Mac Sirloin 06-11-2012 03:55 PM

Oh, look at this thoroughly terrible thing.

This is what turns people into spree killers


On the other hand, here's this.
