Penny Arcade is fun. Yes.
Going into fanboy mode for it. Not really.
Nuklear Power or the 8-bit theater is awesome.

I got my car tuned up last week, so I figured I'd test the gas mileage. I figured it up at 18 MPG, so I looked it up on Google.
EPA stated mileage is 18

Out of curiosity, would anyone here buy a PSP if all it had wrong with it were a broken screen, or a broken on/off switch? If it were cheap, like $15?
Jackass Penguin
Switch? Yes.
Screen? No.
EDIT: And only if you could somehow force the switch to work well enough to make the system boot up. Otherwise, then No also.

You can buy replacement screens on ebay for $30-40.
The reason I ask is because my brother dropped his PSP, the screen broke (not the outside, but the black stuff is covering up most of the picture), and his friend has a PSP with a broken on/off switch that he's wanting to sell and offered it to my brother for $15, I was thinking that if my brother went ahead and bought that PSP, I could swap the screens for him (not that difficult), and buy the PSP he's not using for dirt cheap (like he's gonna charge me a lot, I'm family). All I'd have to do is go to ebay and get a new screen, and find out how to fix the switch. Then I could have portable SNES.

Skullfucked the ecosystem
The comic is alright, and the shit they do for charity is downright inspiring. However, nothing they've accomplished means that they get a free pass from having a suspicious eye turned their way from time to time.
Recently Gabe gave Assassin's Creed a glowing review, all the while questioning the integrity of the reviewers who had given it a bad score. He went on to cite a reader who'd been inspired to by it by his write-up.
What makes the write-up a little suspicious is that they were running ads for the game at that time, and Gabe had just finished an official AC tie-in comic for Ubi. What makes the reader's post write-up endorsement fishy is that for all we know, he might have been motivated to try it out because he's a PA fan, and that the glowing praise he had for it might have been motivated by the same fanboyish need to be like one of his heroes.
I made the mistake of voicing the possibility that said adds and tie-in comic might shed enough doubt on their motives as to render his write-up worthless, and that the fan himself had no worth because his motivations are likewise questionable. I stated that that was in no way intended to mean that they were guilty of anything, just that because that possibility exists, nobody ought to make their purchasing decision based upon Gabe's write-up. Especially when it's easy to rent games these days and decide for yourself.
That set some idiot named Sharpless off like a fucking bottle rocket. He told me that I was shady, and just because I didn't agree with them, it didn't mean that they're full of bullshit. Which I never said was the case. So I told him as much. Then kept on going, just like I usually do. Oh how I wish they had an edit function so that I could delete some of that. Sharpless was something of a jackass, but there was little reason to drag it out.
Oh well.
Yeah.
You "Cyber'd" him, didn't you

Well, sure. But he's going to all that work for:

Why not now.

They got little voices
Goin peep, peep, peep

And dirty little minds
Theyre gonna get you every time
Well, I dont want no short people
Dont want no short people
Dont want no short people
