Websites that make you cheer, do a backflip, or both

Confused Matthew: My favorite video snarky reviewer on the 'net, very closely beating out sfdebris, who I may give a link for later. Check out his reviews of the Star Wars prequel trilogy (over 90 minutes in length!). It's his best work, though Saw comes really close.

Is there a manga you want to read? Wanna read it online without bothering with torrents and imaging programs? Want to have it updated almost immediately after it's fan translated?

Then head on over to this HIGHLY ILLEGAL awesome website that kicks you in the nuts and makes you ask for more.


http://www.kidradd.com
http://www.8easybits.net/comic/latest.php
Kid Radd and 8 Easy Bits are the two best pixel art comics on the Internet. A comic that can make the protagonist of Deadly Towers seem intelligent and sympathetic has my highest regards. Unfortunately, Kid Radd has long since concluded. Sadness.

Probably the best D&D and RPG gaming discussion on the Intynets. Does get a little bit bitter at times and highly liberal, but damn if they aren't good at what they do. The posters here are obsessive, snarky, and actually kind of evil but I love these little goobers anyway. They're going to kill me for this but one time when we were talking about fighters Josh-- huhOHH SHITTZ :bolt:

Okay, I'll get in on this.

www.smartbitchestrashybooks.com

Go to the 'search the archives' and select 'all other catogories' and go to 'Covers Gone Wild'.

I cheer every time they have a new edition of the cover mockery up.
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!

On the other hand, I can't recally how it did so, or what I was looking for at the time.

If you like reviews of bad movies to see bad movies torn into little, tiny shreds, then the shreds set on fire, then the ashes salted, this is the place for you.

I picked Nikolai Bukharin, gave me Trotsky. Quite close really.
Joe, who plans to own Newall's Plumbing Company, asked the presidential hopeful about his plan to increase taxes for some Americans. He felt that Obama's increase plan may redistribute wealth.

Odd, my sister was watching this just last night.
Screamed at me to get out when I cooed "Oh Mr. Darcy, you're so tall and bland and remind me of my father, I simply adore men with the personality of a doorknob."
Seriously, was Collins really that 'ridiculous'? I doubt it.

Akinator knows when you're thinking of his mother. And figures it our fairly quickly.

He confuses Thor with Bumblebee though.

Of course, not knowing Anonymous makes sense, but who's the latter?

I think if the civil war from more of a wide view. The economic elite wanted to continue a barbaric and self-destructive practice, and were willing to sacrifice as many of the underclasses as it took to keep it.

So, saying it's about slavery is actually LESS offensive than the actualities, it was about Slavery AND they were going to throw poor people at the North until they went away.

I'm not going over the ones it got me on, but once I figured out exactly how obscure to go, I stumped it with Ursula K. Le Guin (it guessed Stephanie Meyer), Hua Tuo (it guessed Confucius), and, just for kicks, Mike Mearls (it guessed Dan Brown). It didn't even know about Mearls, but it knew of the other two, just didn't ask the right questions.

e: And when, just for lulz, I went through thinking of myself, it guessed "Your Clone" and then threw an error when I typed "Me" into the name input.

That's some overly-web obsessed deduction engine - it gets Vaarsuvius from Order of the Stick but fails massively at Doc Savage, John Browning and Amelia Earhart.
"But transportation issues are social-justice issues. The toll of bad transit policies and worse infrastructure—trains and buses that don’t run well and badly serve low-income neighborhoods, vehicular traffic that pollutes the environment and endangers the lives of cyclists and pedestrians—is borne disproportionately by black and brown communities."
