Critical Miss: #7

[Actual]

I have nothing to contribute.

I just wanted to show support for this comic which is one of the best features on this site. Keep up the awesome work, and keep making me laugh ...please.

 

[Optimus Hagrid]

This comic is a lot funnier than I thought it would be. That is all.

 

[thethingthatlurks]

Oh, how much I can relate. I don't know when the practice of replacing letters with numbers started being acceptable outside of leet-speak, but f-ing stop it! No, it's not cool, it makes the bloody title look retarded...

QUA4E!!! Half Lif3! T3am Fortr3ss!! Battl3fi3ld Bad Company 3!! Ca77 of Du7y!!

And of course, Mass 3ff3ct!!!

*twitch* *twitch* *twitch*
Just to let you know, if you suddenly ignite and burn to death, it will be due to my sheer concentrated hatred

Sudden ignition and carnage is always nice, but unless you learn how to give someone head cancer, don't bite more than you can chew, boy.

Oh yeaah, feel the burn.

Damnit! Why.Won't.You.Burn?!

[Cosplay Horatio]

My God! That's awesome. If I had one I'd buy a ticket to the theater but make a quick visit to the theaters that show twilight movies.

This avatar is your best yet and your most frightening.

I don't know what's worse, the use of leet speak here or the fact that I understood it so quickly..AAGGGHHHUAH

 

[TheDoctor455]

...

I want one of those.

Now please.

Well... I can cut up part of mine and transplant it to the base of your skull if you like.

Mine too...

How can 7 stand for both L and T???

 

[Not-here-anymore]

Crap. My username is in peril. It's not my fault! The version without numbers was already taken on XBL...

Also, and I've said this before, what the hell is up with the sudden influx of Gaga/Carrey avatars?

 

[Alterayn]

Left4Dead!

Oh wait...

 

[Extreme Pajamas]

Heheh that was great. People really should stop torturing the English language...or very bad things may happen.

 

[Tirnor]

Meh. I can relate, but you missed the number/letter switcharoo outrage point a while back.

Waiting for you to get away from the standard gaming "whuppin' boys". I thought one of the selling points of this was "getting away from the two guys on a couch" comic. (Something other entries did better IMO.) I know it might sound odd, but it's not the lack of a couch that gets you away from that.. so being in an office or a gaming store isn't the answer. The problem is the short dialog between two folks, telegraphed joke, gaming stereotype target format.

The first comic with the internal monologue did it well.. but it's been "business as usual" since then.

Also on a personal "want": Missed a great chance to have hamster go all Kratos (or Captain Nemo.. or even Jack Sparrow) on the multi-tentacled thingie.

Yet again.. still coming here for the potential hamster badge.

I blame Se7en.

 

[Boba Frag]

If she lives in America I imagine that her English gland does that a lot, unless America abandonded its war against the letter u while I wasn't looking.

I agree... but they've gotten so damn used to it,and the argument never goes anywhere, so why bother?
I don't understand why U became a criminal in the US, though.

I mean, what's wrong about Colourful Armour? Google Chrome continually insists that I'm a retard that can't spell, just because of the difference.

 

[Ritzbot]

Actually, I don't mind the replacement of letters and numbers as much as I hate two other major break-downs of English:

1. Mixing up your and you're or there their and they're

and (this one really burns me)

2. Subject/object pronoun misuse: Sentences like, "They did something nice for my wife and I" should be "my wife and ME." You wouldn't say, "They did something nice for I." And it doesn't make you sound sophistocated.

Special Guest Star: Mike Patton

(Yeah, I know somebody else mentioned The Darkness, but we need more cross-contamination from Unskippable.)

 

[BehattedWanderer]

I do believe I have one of those. Someone in a humanities class just mentioned how 'synonymous' and 'identical' were the same thing, and I damn near punched them in the face. Bloody asinine incompetents who believe themselves a bit bright, defiling the wonderful qualities of the language. *Goes to grumbling again.*

*looks it up on IMDB*
Ah, so it started in '95? Why don't we just blame the 90s in general? I'm pretty sure that's not the worst that decade has brought us...
