We've got a new backend on the way, and our current backend is jealous.  It inserts backslashes in places that backslashes aren't required.

Gamestop is prepared to honor your prehistoric Duke Nukem receipts, printed (as was common at that time) upon strips of chewed papyrus. Assuming these documents have not disintegrated entirely or been shredded along with other incriminating evidence, there may still be substantial dangers involved in their recovery.

If I actually had stopped the car, no doubt this scenario would have come to pass. Occasionally, I make good decisions! Good might be a stretch. Latley, I’ve been making a concerted effort to go for “somewhat less bad.”

I was thinking about this a lot today, and if I recall correctly Laser Squid Nemesis managed combat in this way as well.  That is to say, Laser Squad Nemesis did.  Oh, Play By Mail.  Dear, sweet Play By Mail. 

Our print on demand service has been busted for a couple of months now. The fix for this is coming but it is being worked into a whole new back end for our site as well as a fancy new design. So it could be a little while before you can order prints of specific comics.

Sometimes, I’m proud to say it: “This strip is a transcript of an actual conversation!” has a kind of eureka element, a found culture vibe that makes it easily to feel as though I am living my life submerged in undiscovered art. This comic is also a transcript of a real conversation, however, which is substantially less ennobling.

A few weeks ago I decided to give Rift a try and I’ve been having a lot of fun. I’m playing it casually by myself whenever I have some free time so I’m only level 11. Rift does pretty much what you expect an MMO to do these days. It has a few tricks though that make it a unique and worth checking out.

I installed The Witcher 2 on the PC we have in the office here so that Gabriel could see with his own eyes some of the things I’ve been telling him about. While I was home this morning teaching my daughter which berries are to be avoided, he was here playing through the game’s nominal “tutorial,” a sequence of retrospective vignettes that can be played in any order. When I got in, he told me that he had died twelve times at the same spot and then quit. I knew the spot he was taking about; I’d died there myself.

If you wear shoes and you like Penny Arcade then you are the target demographic for our new product. The Penny Arcade shoe is a shoe that you can wear on your feet, but beyond that it is also a shoe that has Penny Arcade stuff on it.

What happens with Kickstarter typically is that a person will have an idea for a new wrist-strap or a proto-scarf or an Indie RPG port or even an all-video extravaganza. Because of how dumb the world is, there are barriers to the completion of these crucial scarves - and this site allows for people to aggregate enthusiasm in such a way as to make them possible.

What "topping" means in a sexual context.  Feel free to consider my knowledge of kink terminology "robust," if not "encyclopedic." 

Part Two of our Bungie Rematch EX Ultra Hyper Edition can be found here.

We were way too late for planking, didn’t have a chance to get in on that pastime, but fear not. We’ve got a head-start on the next thing.

I’m sure that many of you are familiar with the exploits of our friends Kris and Scott. Their individual comics are decent, their Blamimations are a huge hit on PATV, and their appearances on our show have always been well received. Recently they got it into their heads that rather than being bit players in our show they should be the stars of their own. They spoke with Vantage Point the camera crew that has been filming season 2 of Penny Arcade: The Series and together they hatched a plan for “Kris and Scott’s Scott and Kris show”.

The truth is that I am the one with the Dentist problem; I haven’t been to the dentist since just before the first Precipice game. The experience was so traumatic that I decided to transform my mouth into a kind of reserve. It has a wild, untamed beauty. Occasionally my gums recede a bit, exposing the nerve. But this only makes me feel more alive.

The hostility and madness of a PC tech support forum recalls the iniquity of a prison asylum. Specifically, the one from The Silence Of The Lambs, where people are howling and trying to jack off on you, but there is something in that godless crevice you desperately require so you have to go into the very opposite of Heaven and prostrate yourself before the very opposite of God.
