Kinda funny.

Were you aiming to come off like ONN?
ONN is hilarious, but the newscast format has been around for a while. :) Also, the stories here are real, with a bit of embellishment on the details.

And the Jerkcity reference is a win. HONK!

It actually reminds me of Reliable Source more than ONN.

*coughs quietly and looks at the handkerchief* Oh god... it's shaped like... an M:TG card...

Nice work this. It brought a grin to my early-morning-oh-god-I-have-exams face.

I wonder if I can call in sick, I've got a severe neckbeard going on right now and I can not only tell you what ODST stands for I can also recite Fight Club word-for-word. I think I have it pretty bad.

Side note: Is it just me or does Graham have one of those great voices that can be applied to anything? Y'know, like Morgan Freeman.

If I wasn't retired on disabillity I would have actually tried to organize a call out for yux with people claiming we all contracted it to see if anyone caught it. :)

As far as risk goes, well consider the fact that for the last 3 days I have logged in my level 80 mage to World Of Warcraft, and pretended to attend an Oktoberfest where I have been racing rams, and travelling to murder dwarves in their secret underground city. I'm in my SECOND playthrough of Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2, and have still put in a little time playing Champions Online.


I feel fine however so I'd imagine I'm like a Typhoid Mary carrier.

Also someone should start a countdown clock before some Furry starts complaining about them being knocked as the source (Beastiality and a fat guy running around in a Pikuchu suit). All in good fun, but still I'm surprised the first post wasn't something about that.

That was really good, this might become my new favorite series.

Crap! I know what ODST stands for and I'm also sick. I have the Nerd Flu! Stay back!

Shocking coincidence, but I'm actually horribly ill. Wait, coincidence?
I think not!
Keep back! Lest I cough on you!

An amazing installment. I have to say that I nearly fountained Booster Juice out of my nostrils upon hearing "orange of the sad mice".

Nice! I can't wait to see more of this. It'll make waiting for Zero Punctuation more tolerable :D
