To tak197 and DarkMidget : You happen to be doing exactly what he wants, namely responding with disgust because you are offended. It's a common neurosis. Certain people develop an overbearing desire for attention and it gets to the point where they'll settle for any attention at all, even negative ...

Says the forum-goer with the vitriolic and purposefully offensive avatar and signature. Mmhmm...

Why is there always at least one person on a forum who loves to play the heel, eh?

I'm still having trouble understanding where the horned helmets came into play with vikings. There is no physical evidence, at all, whatsoever, for Vikings or any other Norsemen to have ever worn horned helmets. The entire concept was spawned from the discovery of a very famous ship burial, the Sut...

Perhaps win two Lifetime Achievement Awards?

Mr. President, I regret to inform you that a public nude beach opened on the shores of Key West three hours ago, despite government mandates not to. I've taken the liberty of declaring a state of emergency for the entire southeastern corridor, and media control has been in place for some time now. O...

Okay, breaking down the image, Science-style. What is it? It is a visual depiction of physical and energy based combat between a group of supernaturally powered people and what appear to be clones of Stephen Hawking, seemingly also supernaturally powered, although likely through a technology-like ba...

Okay, was that commisioned by Tom Cruise or something? Its... that's not.... I just.... grah! It insults me in ways I cannot understand! What the hell? Okay, wait, let's look at this empirically. Damnit! Focus lad, focus! ... I'll have to come back later. I can't properly study it. I'm stuck at my &...

Quest of The Delta Knights

~Alja-Markir~

I am blissfully ignorant of your reference. I'm not a comic-book person.

Additionally, have whatever you want for a sig, but smaller please.

~Alja-Markir~

EPIC FAIRULE!

~Arja-Malkil~

All I really hate is your obnoxio-huge signature banner. Geez man, you know what? I think I'll be over here on the civilized half of the intartron, thank you very much. You know, the half where our signatures are actually signatures, and where we don't just upload a sig once to be auto-pasted on any...

I'm more interested as to what happens in a Riving Loom...

Also, woo-berries and glee! I helped figure it out! Kinda!

~Alja-Markir~

Addendum - Shouldn't it list Molgan and Paur?

Alright, in light of your convincing arguments I am mentally reclassifying Matt to the upgraded status of "Geek Sans Awesome".

I think it's made more noticable by the fact that he is surrounded by cool and awesome geeks, thus throwing him into sharper contrast.

Figured out the car, I think. It's a double reflection, inverted and partly refracted. The road is somewhere off to (I'm guessing) Morgan's left, or the camera's right, and light is coming from the car, hitting a window, refracting through the glass as a sort of glare, and then hitting whatever glas...

Furbolgs Gone Wild?

Wooooo! Take it off! No, not the feathers! The thong! The thong! Aww yeahhhh! Nice, baby, nice! Unngh! C'mon baby, let's go find some moonkin!

Perhaps alter the idea a tad?

Graham sitting at computer, or whatever... then.. Myst-Noise + Flash of Light = Mirror-Graham appears. Dunno from there.

~Alja-Markir~

Maybe I just get the wrong impression from his portrayal online, but Matt honestly seems like just a huge, hulking nerd. Not a geek, like the rest of the crew, but a Grade-A nerd. I dunno. I don't know the guy personally, obviously, and I'm sorry that it sounds so mean, but I get the impression that...

Hey, Alja-Markir, I appreciate the backup, but I thought he dismissed it because he thought we'd ripped off OE. I don't necessarily agree with his choice that it's "not new", but it's his opinion. No worries. Did I come off too strongly? I didn't think I'd said anything too out there... H...

I just think you're being too critical. Also, you should watch the whole thing before criticizing it that harshly. I finished watching it a few minutes after I stopped. I'm not trying to ruin your guyses thunder, but that's just how it looks to me, and I know its going to look like that to other pe...

Precisely. English speakers have both long and short vowel sounds, dictated by a couple of rather loose rules regarding letters after the vowel sound. So while we say "Mah-eh~eet", a phonetic speaker would say "Mah-teh". Further confusion is derived from combined vowel sounds. Th...

While the idea that the picture is of his first attempt at a suit kinda makes sense (Batman in just a mask and dark clothes before he gets his proper attire comes to mind), I still have to say that I've seen 1950's Sci-Fi movie robots that look better than that garbage.
