This site never fails to amuse me.

This cartoon had me in tears. I dunno why, maybe 'cause it's late.

Just thought I'd share :)

I think it's the badger with the harness and parachute that's killing me.

I didnt get it.


If you read their home page it'll explain the comic. When I first came across that site a couple years ago I thought the cartoonist was on crack or something, but the more I started to visit the more I liked their comics.

I guess it's an acquired taste.

ummmm really? you've never heard of it?

I'd admit I'm a huge gamer... but you've seriously never heard of this game?

Its an RPG for the PC thats had a TON of hype built up for it and is now released and is REALLY REALLY cool.


you know all those nerds who play Dungeon's and Dragons with pen and paper... well now its on computers completely

NOTE: It's www.penny-arcade.com, not www.pennyarcade.com

I started reading the bio on pennyarcade.com and it's about some woman who did standup for a gay/bi/whatever club and got stranger from there.

Hmmm, I never said it was pennyarcade.com. If you click on one of the cartoons I posted it will have a link to take you to their homepage.

You have to read the next one too.

Yeah the spiderman comics were great. Keep digging into their archives, I'm sure you'll find comics that will have you in tears.

Edit:

Alot of the comics make absolutely no sense unless you're heavily into games (which I'm not so much any more) or you read the homepage where they talk about the comic. Then there are others like the spiderman comic that don't need an explanation.
