Funny Penny Arcade comic

Probably because I play so much Wolfenstein:ET these days..

lol. Yeah, I''d love to have a full poster of just that first frame. That makes the entire strip for me. Every time I start to marvel about how ""immersive"" online games have become, I get slapped back into reality by watching someone repeatedly miss a door or get trapped in a confusing stairwell. Very amusing, even when it''s me.

Its the middle panel that does it for me.
I''m constantly amazed at people that dont get that point.

It''s a good strip to read if you want to be reminded why you don''t play online games anymore.

nahh...just play on good servers with a fairly stable roster...

pub servers...oooh yeah.. now thats a different story.

""Ja! Mein Leipen!""

They should make a shirt of that.

Certainly would be less prickly than ""mexican jew lizard.""

Im surprised it wasnt ""gay, mexican, jew, lizard""

I thought that was implied... /em ducks

LOL. Yes thanks for sharing. Day of Defeat for whatever reason seems to have less complete asshats than say MoH, but I love hearing 12 year olds call me ""gay camping {homophobic slur}"". I wonder if that means I''m doubley gay?

Hmm. A game where the objective is to capture and hold more and more territory. Could blindly run screaming at the enemy until I die again or. Gosh, I could sit by this sewer entrance (dod_kalt) and waste anyone who jumps down or peaks in at me. And then advance and hold the next choke point. And kill that 12 year old again. And again...and...

Even better I had someone on my own team other night call me gay, I think because I was giving enemy MG positions and other useful stuff over the mic. I mean gosh, the mic is for calling people names not strategy and stuff. So I went back on the mic and said, ""You''re just calling me gay because I love your butt. I can''t help it. You''ve got a such a great butt."" Really being in my early thirties, this is not a mature response. But. Heh.

Cause really, when it''s already a given that people have a big homophobic button to push, why not push it REALLY hard. Oh you want gay? Was that with the 10"" flames, or we talking full on Liberaci gay?

Oh no he dint!

Ah, Sehr Gut!

Hah, that''s a good one Roo! I usually just mumble curses to myself when some asshat flames me online, but next time...

Maybe we should start a thread on sure-fire comebacks for 12 year-olds who give insults.

One of my personal favorites to the ""You''re gay"" comment has always been ""You''re just jealous ''cause I chose your dad over you.""

""No, I''m not gay, you just wish I was""...
