what you should do this sunday night...

[No Data]

Oh wow, now that is funny.

I almost went to this award show as well, as someone's date. Unfortunately it was a bit too short notice for me so I couldn't make it. That would have been hilarious to run into another blabber there though!

[joethelion]

very cool, i'll tune in

So have they found a publisher yet after Activision Blizzard's terminal case of blithering idiocy?

specifically pointing to this topic: 'can i send you my idea for a game?' and the text thereunder

hahaha

and about this:

specifically, this: Not introducing me when he had the chance.

When we're next in knoxville, maybe between the fam-ob's and personal travel goals [dollywood! See rock city! Musee de appalachia!] we could meet up for some casual frappucinos? No big deal.

ok, getting on a plane now, bye!

Yea Rea...I'll see if I can spot you. That's very cool and a huge. Congrats to you and Tim. I'll call your cell during the award and then the camera will pan over to you... that's what friends are for.

By the end of the intro when Jack Black was humping a laptop and shooting flames out of his underpants, I was kinda wishing I hadn't told Rachael's grandmother to watch the show.
The part with Tim was good, though.

Pham got a little hackish on his research for this one. Black working with Schafer for the last three years was a secret only to people who don't know what they're writing about. Maybe the LA Times didn't get last November's issue of Game Informer (or for that matter the May 1 issue of Metro Pulse), but hey.

Black and Schafer's responses are worth the read, but mostly because it's Schafer getting technical about the development process and Black being...you know. Jack Black.
