I can't stand CAD.

I agree that there are many lame, unfunny jokes there, but there were some good ones in older episodes

Okay since you need this explained to you, I'll oblige.

It's a parody of the miscarraige comic. Taking the piss out of the moment CAD completely lost all credibility is a fun pastime of the internet.

This is going to be epic fail, the games are already bad enough these days.

But... but it'll have driving!

JennyGenesis 06-23-2012 10:16 AM

So did fast and furious, and they sucked...

That is fantastic

OANST 06-23-2012 12:01 PM

Is it bad that I don't get it?

Manco 06-23-2012 02:12 PM

You should be happy you don’t.

Dynamithix 06-23-2012 03:08 PM

Geerpleeh!

Hehe, shame about the white border to the right.

Also time for a classic:

I hate this whole fad of "Keep calm and carry on" but that is the first one I've ever seen that I actually like.

Crashpunk 06-24-2012 01:07 PM

I adore the Carry on films :)

JennyGenesis 06-25-2012 03:20 AM

Clearly this a tattoo which people will ask him in many years "What is it?"

Crashpunk 06-25-2012 03:21 AM

What is it?

JennyGenesis 06-25-2012 03:27 AM

I can't even tell if your being sarcastic or serious.

Wings of Fire 06-25-2012 04:34 AM

What is it?

moxco 06-25-2012 05:31 AM

What is it?

Asides from some reference to pop culture, that is.

Dynamithix 06-25-2012 06:14 AM

Isn't that the Zune logo?

Oh. Yeah.

What is it?

Varrok 06-25-2012 06:32 AM

What is it?

Nate 06-25-2012 06:40 AM

As logos go, I think it's actually quite a good design.

Also, the Zune HD is the best mp3 player I've ever had.

Manco 06-25-2012 08:50 AM

Zune is awesome and it’s a damn shame it’s being rebranded as “Xbox Music”. Pfft.

DarkHoodness 06-25-2012 10:26 AM



Let the conspiracy theories commence!

(I'm pretty sure we haven't figured out how cold fusion works yet, though - That time glasses thing is definitely false, and I'm pretty sure Rife's Anti-Cancer beam is false too. Also, that fuel cell from water thing breaks the laws of physics, as does the water vortex implosion thing. But the rest may be true.)

Have some more random crap:

WoF: I resized your image for you. Also, what?


This is far more entertaining
than it should be. It's a realtime tweet-narration of a relationship imploding. In public. On a train. Infidelity, pregnancy and horses are all involved.

JennyGenesis 06-26-2012 04:46 AM

This is funny, and true.


Crashpunk 06-26-2012 04:52 AM

That was great. I fucking hate EA.

Varrok 06-26-2012 05:50 AM

That's old. I already posted that before.

:

Locomotory muscle function of ectothermic fishes is generally depressed in cold waters, making them vulnerable to avian and mammalian predators whose body temperature remains high. Paradoxically, Greenland sharks Somniosus microcephalus exhibit the reverse of this usual predator–prey thermal pattern by apparently hunting seals in Arctic waters. To examine whether this species possesses cold-adaptations that enhance its swimming performance, we used data-logging tags to measure swim speed and tail-beat frequency (which reflects muscle-shortening speed) of six free-swimming sharks (204–343 kg). For comparison, we compiled these parameters for wild fishes from the literature over a wide body mass range (0.2–3900 kg) and examined the scaling relationships using phylogenetically informed statistics. The sharks cruised at 0.34 m·s− 1 with a tail-beat frequency of 0.15 Hz, both of which were the lowest values for their size across fish species. The mean and maximum speed (0.74 m·s− 1) and acceleration during burst swimming (0.008 m·s− 2) were much lower than those of seals. Our results indicate that the swimming performance of Greenland sharks is limited by cold waters (~ 2 °C) and insufficient to catch swimming seals. However, Arctic seals sleep in water to avoid predation by polar bears Ursus maritimus, which may leave them vulnerable to this cryptic slow-swimming predator.

yep.

I’m glad this had a happy ending. Poor Tim.

TF2.com crashed so I think they 'leaked' this on purpose.

Crashpunk 06-27-2012 11:12 AM

Oh... my god. My sides are killing me... That was amazing.

I fucking love you Valve. Fucking love you.

Varrok 06-27-2012 11:12 AM

Great one :D Really enjoyed. Could be longer though

Mac Sirloin 06-27-2012 11:15 AM

I feel like they might even follow it up with something more lengthy, but I'm, perfectly okay with this if they don't. I think this was pretty much ideal.

I turned into a Geography teacher tonight, this conversation started because the person in the conversation sent me a parcel, however, for the address she put "Engeland (sic), Wales". So I tried to explain to her that England and Wales are two different places, damn foreigners!
