    What the h***? NJ?? Why would you EVER want to go to NJ??


    There's shisno everywhere!

    (in case you don't know what shisno is...)
    (apologies if this is unacceptable content. I just love to share it when given the opportunity.)

    As one popular video puts it (paraphrasing):

    Church: You mean Humans?
    Gary (the computer): That is not what they call you, but correct.
    Church:Why, what do they call us?
    Gary: (Pauses)… Shisno.
    Church: That’s an insult, isn’t it.
    Gary: Perhaps this can best be explained in the form of a knock-knock joke.
    Church: (big sigh)
    Gary: Knock Knock
    Church: Whos there?
    Gary: You are.
    Church: You are who?
    Gary: You are a dirty dirty shisno Ha Ha Ha
    Church: Alright, what does it mean?
    Gary: What is the most foul-smelling animal on your planet?
    Church: Um, a skunk. Wait, does shisno mean skunk?
    Gary: Not exactly. Does a skunk defecate?
    Church: Yes…
    Gary: And does the skunk’s defecation in turn produce its own excrement?
    Church: Eew, No!
    Gary: Then there is no equivalent to shisno in your language.
    Church: Gross.
    Gary: Like you would not believe.


    Stolen from Red Vs Blue. Best machinima ever, all due respect Samuraiko.

    But seriously, stay out of NJ. It's horrible here. Worst Italian food anywhere, and multi-bubonic plague. Also, too many cats.

Then, giggling madly, he will touch his target to discharge the static electricity he built up. This could also be used for Electrical Blast, I suppose, but the giggling would have to be escalated to a mad cackle.
    The Tick - Carpeted Man. Though his weakness was, on warm days, he would pass out and fall over, and if I recall correctly, zap himself.
  3. What you REALLY need is to use a Squidbillies episode. Seriously. (OK, not THAT seriously. But check it out.)

    New Emote

    (Inspired by Steelclaw)
    Can we get an emote that is

    Clap-(Left foot out, slide right foot to left foot)-Clap,
    Clap-(Right foot out, slide left foot to right foot)-Clap
    (back to original position)

    (Like the Thriller Video)

    Because then the Cimerorans in the Plaza wouldn't look so stale just standing there... and the phalanxes of hundreds of Nemesis in that one Patron arc. (And the Nems are SOO dressed for it!)

    It would make dropping a Rain of Arrows on them SO much more satisfying!
  5. I predict that the lifetime subscriptions will be the downfall of CO.

    Early Lifers will take the game for granted quickly. When the Devs over there run out of the initial cash inflow, then they will focus all of their programming on microtransaction content and box content.

    This will leave the early Lifers feeling substantialy jilted, because they will have lost the feeling of the game being 'free'. (This may or may not be justified, but that's another thread.) They will stay connected, because it's 'free', but they won't embrace the game with loyalty. Thus, they will lose the early adopters, who are vital to a game's success.

    All of the above is rampant baseless speculation, and I am most certainly wrong in most of it, but I don't care. Now when I get home, I will get me more purple enhancements and be a happy camper. WEEEEE!
  6. Ginsu knives... So young, so young.

    Nah, seriously, ginsu's make great daily use knives. Not fancy, but they cut, and they're cheap, and if they break/get damaged, no sweat.

    Not very good for food prep, though, not heavy enough.

    Give me Purple IO's or it Didn't happen!

    [pics are useless to me.]
  8. Yeah, /unsigned. Teaming is cake (no need to wait for 8, search as you play). I16 will make it even EASIER. The game is easy as it is; making it easier = making it BORING. I look forward to the new "Challenging" content in Going Rogue.

    [I KNOW none of this is really possible, but it's a joke people!]
  10. First, Steelclaw, Excellent list. You never disappoint.

    Also, on topic this time, I think the OP is being a little sensitive. If the incident was as you said, a one-time mention, I think you should absolutely expect that sort of thing. It's probably nothing more than humor. An appropriate response might be, "Hi, and thanks, I took some time working on this costume, and I'm glad you like it. Have a great day!"

    If the person pesters/stalks you, continues to harrass you, or steps over any other lines, then you have a complaint. Otherwise, take a chill pill, and please don't assume everyone is some drooling sex maniac intent on harshing your mellow.

    Wow. am I the only one that heard Johnny Bravo there?
    I miss Johnny Bravo.

    (IMDB)
    Gorgeous woman: What kind of idiot are you?
    Johnny Bravo: I don't know, what kinds are there?

    Johnny Bravo: [looking in a mirror] Who's this handsome guy?
    [grabs a phone]
    Johnny Bravo: Hello, 911 Emergency? There's a handsome guy in my bathroom! Hey, wait a second. Cancel that - it's only me!

    [Johnny is trying to pick up Daphne and for a moment looks at Velma]
    Velma: [with a flirtatious voice] Don't worry, I won't bite!
    Johnny Bravo: [pointing at Daphne] Does she?
    Johnny Bravo: [pointing at Scooby Doo] You understand what the dog says?
    Velma: Sure, we all do!

    I17?

    Wow, in APRIL they were working on I18... sheesh. Long time to keep secrets like Side Switching, Power Customization, Dual Guns, etc. Nice discipline, Devs, with all the Board DoomSpeak and OtherGameYammer.

    I predict a long-awaited UnderwaterMoonDoomPocalypse Zone, Package Slider Zone, and Fluffy Bunny Guns. PINK Fluffy Bunny Guns. (Or any color you like, actually.)

    But not Pink Package slider. That would be Wrong on several levels.
  14. Sir, That NEVER happens. Especially not on any team we've been on recently. Nosirree. Never. Nope.

    Never, for example, does a certain scrapper go left when everyone else goes right and un-SK me and I get plastered by a Cyclops EB that's 17 levels higher than me. Never happened. Nope. And I'm insulted that you would even suggest such a travesty.

    (just kidding, it hasn't happened to me recently. Much. )
  15. Holy Guacamole. Nice ones, Devs!

    Nah, seriously, a baseball. DUH! That's WAY past due... as are all the other sports balls/pucks/etc., and hockey sticks, an entire basketbal backboard, a NASCAR tire, an umpire/referee, ...
  17. Thanks for running this Des, I had a great time. Wish I could have been there for moer of the events, but I got in some good action, and a purple drop too! (Soulbound)
  18. Sign me up for all the Day 2's des, knitefire.
  19. Sign me up for Silver Mantis. Knitefire.

    Letting people buy vet rewards instead of earning them

    Revamping zones (I'll take new zones over Hollows/Faultline revamps)

    That's enough for now.
    What he said.
  21. Catgirls - Nice.

    Along those lines a little... What if you threw a clone of a current team member?

    For something like what they have going on with i16 would be suicide to not do closed beta.
    q.f.f.t.
  23. I think I read previously somewhere that it would be VERY laborious. Because a walking animation is COMPLETELY different than the usual run animation. And many of the moving animations have to be integrated with the power animations, as well as differences for body types, costume pieces...

    I don't think the cost would be worth the reward myself...

    but then again, a team of 8 walking up to the Gates in Cimerora on the final mission of the ITF to the Kill Bill Vol1 track "Battle Without Honor or Humanity"
    (http://www.amazon.com/gp/recsradio/r...k=009&disc=001)

    ...might make the whole thing worth it.
