Sonic reclining saying: I WANT GAMES WITH GRAPHICS MADE BY PEOPLE WHO ARE PAID TO WORK ANDI'M NOT KIDDING

Finally, a flag worth fighting for.

screenshot of a tweet from 2016 of an edited dilbert comic by leyawn: panel 1 (wally and dilbert talking to the pointy haired boss): wally: the separation of art from the artist is fascinating to me. panel 2: boss: why is that? wally: i should clarify - not just the separation, but the reclamation of art for another use. the artist loses their work to the world. panel 3. boss: like pepe? it must feel so awful to see that happen. wally: exactly. your work is no longer personal but public. panel 4: wally: and aspect that comes with the territory. to share one's art is to risk parody and theft. it can both inspire and desecrate. we've seen pepe, a once beloved meme, turn into a mascot of trump supporters, as ridiculous as that sounds. panel 5: dilbert: even before that, pepe wasn't some meme. he was a character in matt furie's web comic. pepe the frog is a thousand steps removed from the source. his comic is great by the way. panel 6: boss: so it's hopeless? our work can be turned into terrible things and we can't do shit? panel 7: wally: well there's one thing you can do. take some asshole's art and make it good. it turns out scott adams is a huge dumbass. it's great. panel 8: wally: he thinks a paid cabal of trolls is out to get him. he praises trump. dilbert: i thought his characters in dilbert were satirical but it turns out he's just as stupid as they are. you are what you write ahaha

scott adams' blog how to insult me on twitter 10/21/2016 i've noticed that a lot of people are struggling to come up with creative ways to insult me on twitter. as a public service, i will organize the common approaches in this post so people can insult me by number

1. act like you think i draw garfield 2. proclaim that i am the pointy-haired boss from dilbert (assume a million people havne't already told me the same thing) 3. label me irrelevant 4. note that dilbert used to be funny but now it is just sad, like its creator 5. make a fake dilbert comic and have the characters mock their misinterpretations of my opinions in a way that you mistake for satire

in 2016 i made an edit of a dilbert comic and scott adams got so mad he blocked me and then blogged about it

Extremely upset that a throw-away XKCD joke somehow became the organizing principle for the Internet.

YOU GUYS WANNA SEE SOMETHING CURSED???? HOW ABOUT NEON GENESIS LEHIGH VALLEY PHANTOMS HOCKEY?????

In Super Mario Galaxy, the stars on the letters of the logo spell "u r mr gay", while for the movie it says "he mr gay". This is because you are watching Mario, not playing him.

Extremely hideous banner with way too many fonts, colors and shapes. Text reads: "Wow, look, honey! It's AI-ENHANCED SOFTWARE. Not only is it SLOW and UGLY, it's also WORSE! It will not help, but you have to pretend to like it, because your boss is leveraging his credibility on this (and his house.) Everyone's future is getting smaller unless you're a boss." Behind all the color swashes of the background are illustrations of the Mechanical Turk, a famous scam automaton from the 18th century. The bottom features the Turk's standard chess movements, a geometric pattern that comes to a central point.

A cowboy in silhouette against a sunset somewhere in the presumed American West sits up, one hand on reins and the other back for balance as his horse rears. the text of the poem Incipit by Billy Collins in the upper left corner: Too bad this poem wasn’t written in a 12th-century monastic scriptorium because it would have begun with a much bigger T, which would loom over the smaller letters, their tiny serifs fluttering in the breeze.

The big letter might even be inside an illuminated scene, perhaps showing in gold two monkeys, or six younger ones, hanging from the crossbar of the T with vines and flowers growing all around. More likely, you’d be treated to the reminder of a skull, a sheep and shepherd combo, or the Cross itself, empty now, with a long winding shroud draped over its outstretched arms. But I’d hate to spend my days hidden under a brown cowl, writing with a bony, arthritic hand at a long table of other hooded figures, then washing down a crust of bread with medieval water from a dented goblet. I’d miss my silver car and my stereo and my wife, who cooks us Cajun shrimp, so never mind—the plain letter T will do. Plus, I love being stuck here in the science fiction of my 21st-century life even with all the dying around me, the planet now barely able to spin, and my pen slithering off into oblivion."

A yellow rubber ducky sits on the edge of a white shape in a grey void. Text reads: If you're struggling with a problem, don't worry: you can always talk to me

A chaotic, ghoulish pulp novel / zine-like image, something like a promotional leaflet for a magazine or quarterly, each line a different typeface and treatment. A giant stock-image halftone head with gleaming yellow eyes rests at the top center, haloed by a many-pointed starburst. Severed hands float around the image pointing at items. It reads: LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT MY HOMEBREW RPG and other weird tales of tabletop terror! In this issue: "Your Character Sheet is a series of sticky notes"; Critical Fail? DEBATE ME--To turn that to a success! ; The only snacks allowed at the table were dry popcorn and nutritional yeast!; This "Random" table was made ostensibly without the knowledge of BELL CURVES; (SHARED ENCUMBRANCE SPREADSHEETS!); "I used A.I. to generate my lore!" - And returning by popular demand: "Instead of a dice, we use a deck of cards--!" All this and more for just FREAK 95!

Every PAX I make dumb banners and somehow they let me print and stand them up in various easter-egg locations at the show. Here are the ones from PAX Unplugged 2024.

Chris's Steakhouse was a New Orleans landmark

Chris Matulich periodically got bored, sold it, waited for the new owner to fail, and bought it back cheap

The sale conditions: Can't move it, can't change the name

He did this six times

Then he sold it to Ruth Fertel
