Does Bromide qualify as a "saga"?

Absolutely. Outside of the 'main plot', they also re-regged a dozen of times to post their stupid comic accompanied with pages of word salad in the bad webcomics thread.

as much as those kids might need a reality check of some kind, i feel that their classmates is probably more appropriately suited for delivering those wake-up calls, than a herd of adult goons more than twice their age.

i like weird stories about crazy idiot on-line people, but adults making fun of kids is just weird and off-putting in itself

Sorry your grandchildren are a disappointment.

every time people talk about that twitter thing with abe and the 14 year old is amazing because apparently their definition of being owned is taking this comic 100% unironically



Yeah, that kid was a literal Hitler for agreeing with a popular comedian.
Furthermore, that little poo poo had a photo of himself holding a cat. What a loving moron. I hope he dies, lmao. In fact, I am going to kill him and his cat. I'm not owned, by the way. I AM NOT OWNED!

I vaguely remember the whole thing being debunked. Even the photos from the African village were taken from some news story and it's just that nobody reverse searched them earlier lol.

They didn't show up in reverse search because the article they come from was in a form of a pdf file. It's not available online anymore, unfortunately.

it works, because the word "sympathy" is used in both statements

Sympathy sounds a bit like symphony. Remember that song?

Destruction also starts with the same letter as disabled.

So my joke is disabled people really hate when you put them in control.

This is a reference to a song.

One that was pretty small and innocuous was Al Borland was given some secret mod challenge where he had to go into 3 other subforums and bullshit on pre-assigned topics and try to make himself sound convincing. I want to say he had to talk in GWS and SAS, but the one that caught my eye was in A/T where he started a topic about owning his own laundromat. I had worked in one for 6 years pretty heavily, so it caught my eye and I started asking him questions and stuff, and he took it like a champ, bullshitting about front-loaders and perc and stuff for almost a week before he was allowed to confess in GBS. That was fun.

That is legitimately fun. Are mod challenges still a thing at all? I've seen some in E/N, I guess, where users had to prove they actually listened to good advice, but nothing actually funny.

Rarely. People forget the number of mod challenges that went badly. Also, the purpose of a mod challenge was always to give a bad poster a chance to redeem themselves in some funny way, and these days, most of the really bad posters are re-reg idiots obsessed with negative attention. Mod challenges were generally on people who didn't lurk before posting and showed up and did something clueless and stupid. We just don't have those kinds of new registration numbers anymore.

You say that, yet there is a mod challenge going on right now in the Star Citizen thread? What did you try to hide, 'FactsAreUseless'? If that's even your real name!

But seriously, here's a link if anyone's interested:

In one of the episodes of the new Sonic cartoon, there's an obsessive fan who kidnaps Sonic and friends Misery-style and keeps them looked in his room. Among other things he shows them his fanart of Sonic with flesh-coloured arms.

And without those insane people on a forum dedicated to an even more insane people this would probably never happen.

Here is me emulating FYAD posting.
My brain is heating up like a loving AMD processor in an average poverty-stricken African household with no air conditioning or, indeed, electrical sockets that don't inject electrical ebola straight into your janky PC. The task at hand will probably make me poo poo my pants with my own guts. I pour myself a tall glass of spiked Cape Fear (1/3 Coke Zero, 1/3 razors, 1/3 Coke Zero), and already fail miserably by attempting something resembling a joke. I begin to morph into a miserable meme cat shouting obscenities in eldritch cat language, everything is consumed by low-poly models of fire from the hit video game Half-life, as my life and posting career ends as a shoddy College Humour skit based on a book by Franz Kafka. Can't say I didn't deserve it. Please, contact me on MSN if you want to have a friend.

It's just an edit of a real Shmorky comic that fit the question. I find it humorous, but maybe a brown cartoon puddle is actually not work safe, in which case I am sincerely sorry you had to see this.

E: here is the original comic so you don't have to think you were subjected to an actual fetish comic.

Back in 2010 my then-roommate saw me on SA and recognized Shmorky's artwork and told me about how when she was on the internet as a 16 year old child, she was involved in some group talking about keeping actual pet rabbits, because she does have actual pet rabbits, and Shmorky contacted her to ask her to RP with him that he was her diaper-wearing furry rabbit baby boy that she would take care of. I told people and got ignored because who would believe some random goon's random non-goon roommate about a site superstar who makes good cartoons or whatever

Could she be the same girl who came forward this time, or did Dave Kelly actually actively seek out specifically 16 year-olds?
