POST OF THE DAY

[Grahf]

I might gain some experience in "bastard" class for saying this, but is it that I wait for the day that someone tries to overclock one of these things and fry their noggin?

[Dracos]

It is not bad that you do that.

What's bad is you haven't made popcorn and aren't passing it around.

Does it actually say anywhere on the site how much faster you're suppose to think? Also, who plays video games for 5 to 40 minutes? o_O

[Brian]

Ostensibly, you're not supposed to play for more than 15 minutes at a stretch without a break, if you actually read the console instructions and warnings.

[Dracos]

I take your instruction manual and...throw it on the floor? :P

[thepanda]

Sooo, Warioware and dot dot dot questionmark

[Grahf]

Clearly they are insinuating that all games must be done via near perfect speedruns. If you can't do it in less than 15, you're doing it wrong!

Now I kind of want to watch some speedruns.

Goes and does that

Warning: Five minutes of Stephen Colbert dancing to Daft Punk may brighten your day.

And here's the even more awesome full context, with additional song performance.

[Grahf]

That was amazing. However, I think that for this week nothing has topped the skit he did with Hugh Laurie:

A well trodden area.
