The rules are the game, without them you're just playing cowboys and indians with a side of craps. Image

I read that shit, I guess a decade ago on the original forum. Those stories are still hilariously bad. The one poster was a masterful troll.

Ridiculous levels of awesome in that post, A_H.

I wonder if Kevin James would make a sequel to "Paul Blart: Mall cop" and call it "Paul Blart: Mall Ninja!"

For some reason this reminded me of a totally unrelated and more believable series of anecdotes.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_world_syndrome
He jumps like a damned dragoon, and charges into battle fighting rather insane monsters with little more than his bare hands and rather nasty spell effects conjured up solely through knowledge and the local plantlife. He unerringly knows where his goal lies, he breathes underwater and is untroubled by space travel, seems to have no limits to his actual endurance and favors killing his enemies by driving both boots square into their skull. His agility is unmatched, and his strength legendary, able to fling about a turtle shell big enough to contain a man with enough force to barrel down a near endless path of unfortunates.

--The horror of Mario

Zak S, Zak Smith, Dndwithpornstars, Zak Sabbath. He is a terrible person and a hack at writing and art. His cultural contributions are less than Justin Bieber's, and he's a shitmuffin. Go go gadget Googlebomb!

Yeah, I just went down the list from Tumbling_Down's post and picked the most ridiculous name. Of course, the stuff in there was pretty interesting nonetheless.
