Crime and Punishment

Postby Paul » 16 Feb 2009, 11:30

Why is it always hookers that are the target for serial killers? Why not other social outcasts, like frat boys, LARPers or Twilight fans?

How DO they propose to get people to go into the killing room?

Edit: Killing isn't illegal, murder is. Murder is composed of distinct elements. Actually causing the death, intent, etc. Even if all the elements of murder are present in a killing, it's still not murder unless none of the active defenses apply. Self defense, defense of others, necessity, or even a reasonable but mistaken belief of such danger means a killing could be lawful. There's also lawful combat, and in some places capital punishment or assisted suicide.

So don't fret, there's lots of opportunity for legal homicide! :D

it really didn't go the way I thought it would. Thought Graham's character was just ignorent at first...

More places need designated killing rooms.
As a matter of fact we need more fealings/act related rooms. The angry dome works and the killing room seems to work, so we need more

Well, good comedy is good social commentary. LRR's just isn't always so forefront as this video's.

I really liked it (also the 'commercial'), though it took me a bit to get it. But now, quick, off to the Killing Room.

Because if serial killers killed LARPers, I may be dead... and that just isn't cool.

Thumbs up on the vid - I enjoy them when the lead up to the ending isn't so funny, but the ending itself is (does that make sense?)

I just noticed (contredicting what I said in the advert thread earlier today) that the old black-transparant-one-click-gone ads are back. Yay!

<.< In your own ad you should have Graham finding an iPhone in the washer and discreatly (and shamefully) hiding it sorry James, I just had to >.>

I have to say at first I was wondering why Officer Rodriguez wasn't the official but obviously it doesn't work if this takes place in some parallel universe where killing is not at all illegal.

Also: Nice disclaimer at the end of the ad there.

Also Also: Where did the "Oh hi! I didn't see you there." thing come from? I mean originally.

Also Also Also: Priceless line: "If the cold blooded murder of a perfect stranger is a crime than arrest me. Come on! That's what I thought."

....yeah....

Some of the ads scare me, I mean the fact that they advertise online, don't they have contracts with the Police?... Advertising on the private market can se easily be missunderstood

I think there's less actual social commentary than you might believe. :shock:

I think it's funny how Google ads try to be relevant, and completely fail most of the time.

w00t. good clean "not what you first expected" video.

is it coincidence that they're in Runner-acceptable gear? Even G's notebook is blue.
Or is that just coincidence
or has that always been a prevailing theme(or prevailing coincidence) that ive only just noticed now.

Light hearted dark humour very nice. And while I remember, Lyinginbedmon I need to see you in the killing room for a moment.

Interestingly, police officers typically wear blue.

Nicely done.

And Paul, that too is my favourite method of killing hookers (or anyone really, but particularly females). I find it quite relaxing, good for relieving stress.

Well played good sirs.
The added 'precious-life hippy' line from Paul pushed this one into guffaw-worthy territory.
Also mentioning that the floor wasn't Scotch-guarded.
