Okay

The setup was only possible if you ignore the fact that portals in Portal disappear if the surface they're on moves.

The idea was that you have a crusher with a portal on it come down (with speed) upon a cube. The other portal is on an angled surface. Does the cube go flying out the other portal, and if so where does its momentum come from?

People drew diagrams and poo poo, it was great.

Holy poo poo, now I remember that, and the lengthy levels of explanation people went into. There's something immensely satisfying by closing a thread and going about doing literally anything, and realizing that you're being more productive than people in the thread.

Maybe I'm braindead, but does anyone else remember the thread that was like "we built a submarine"?

IIRC it was some Swedish or Finnish guys that built a fully functional submarine in a lake (and posted a bunch of pictures).

I also think they built something else that was awesome and posted a thread about it (I think it was a houseboat or something?)

Anyway I'm 99% sure I'm not delusional. I think it was back in like 2010 or something around there.

Does anyone remember this poo poo?

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

However consider this, since you're tryharding to annoy me by showing that photo around, if it could piss me off would I have shared it with Discord in the first place?

Only one of them is super fat, the other guy is methhead-thin. Between the 2 of them you've got something like 2.25 peoples' worth of weight.

Last time I looked they were basically relics of late 90s Internet culture. I also seem to remember one of them being a skinny nerd instead of a fat nerd like the other.

The one guy is not nearly as good of a writer as he thinks he is. Too many years of reading only fantasy novels has made him write like some sort of effete elf nobleman.

Tycho is the one that looks like a human buttplug Moleman. Gabe is the slenderman looking fucker that would be perfectly in place at a Meshugga concert. Afaik their wives are on the heavy side but I remember one of them having pretty bad health problems so if he wants to draw them like hot topic girls then what's the prob.

Despite their respective talents, they'd both be Tim Buckley-level burnouts if it weren't for their supremely gifted financial manager.

Last I remember was Tycho's article that starts off with don't tell me I "don't get" undertale and then complains about it in a way where it's painfully obvious he's clueless, unable to even conceive the concept of affectionate satire

I definitely don't agree with all their opinions, but I like Gabe and Tycho. Their blog always showcases whatever games their into and they're good at taking about what they like about games and why. I've encountered several games there that would have flown under my radar otherwise. I liked their video series Fourth Panel, where it was just bullshitting and brainstorming their creative process for comics.

But honestly, I don't know why they bother making comics anymore. I'm not sure anyone cares and their comics having been anything interesting in a long time. All the other content they generate is much better. And don't forget that PAX is basically E3 but better.

I really don't like the comic itself but I worked security at Pax East a couple of years and they both seem like pretty chill turbonerds tbh. Most of the time when they were walking the convention floor they both had these looks on their faces that was pure "holy poo poo look how awesome this thing is" and they seemed super happy to be signing autographs and taking photos.
