Put the letter "w t f" (but with no spaces) where the bleep is.

Genius!

There was all kinds of important grown-up stuff I needed to be doing today, but if anybody needs me I'll be on that site! (and this one, come to think of it…)

I want a fat space marine anti-graffiti squad….

guess I missed it, as it says that its been removed and shows a fat guy sitting in a chair…

Just hit the broken link in the original post;
it takes you to a menu where
the article is listed at the top
(FWIW: there is also a ' / ' missing before the …)

The article on 40K 5th ed has a few a chuckles, as well-

Finished reading some of the articles on the various D&D books. Wasn't even aware that there were two printings of 1st ed Deities and Demigods, but laughed my ass off all day on that.

Were they right about Fiend Folio being a coproduction with GW??

Yeah… back when White Dwarf was a general, non-GW-exclusive mag, they ran a regular column where readers submitted D&D critters of their own devising.

'Fiend Folio' was a collection of the best of those entries.

Hahahah hilarious. :)

The 40k 5ed discussion is awesome, too:

Zack: Everything has to be grim and dark all the time?

Steve: There is only war.

Zack: That's impossible. There has to be people getting married and having kids and going to school. The galaxy wouldn't function without all that stuff. They wouldn't be able to have a war.

Steve: Oh, this again. Your whole "Where does Chaos get drinking water?" thing.

Zack: It's a valid question. Just because they're evil doesn't mean they can stop drinking water.

Steve: You're talking about demons from another dimension 38,000 years in the future.

Zack: All I'm saying is when NASA sends a probe to Mars they don't go looking for skulls, they go looking for water, and there's a reason for that.

Steve: The reason is that NASA is going to get its rovering butt kicked by some serious skull-faced bad dude with a chainsaw.

that is excellent, so many memories.

We should suggest something for them to review next.

I've been laughing so hard for the last hour reading all these that my sides hurt.

Thanks for posting this.

Have you read the diary of a Holodeck Janitor?

Still one of the funniest things I've ever read.

First time visiting Something Awful. I read the Fiend Folio episode and was laughing so hard I couldn't even keep the cursor steady enough to click the next page!

Oh, if you think this is funny you'll LOVE my friend Jason and Fresno as they sit on the couch, smoke pot and watch the Golden Girls marathon on TV Land. Those two are such cards!
