How easy is it to scam on Kickstarter? like, those ones where people are raising money for a 1-day internet celebrity (like the guy in Detroit who walks an 8 hour commute everyday for 20 years)? What's there to make sure they actually give the money to the people they're accepting donations for?

I actually like elan lee because he made the ARG for that movie AI while at Microsoft. That was a really cool project. The card game looks like it could be fun I guess.

This is my new business model. Make a thing and get a webcomics person to scribble on it. Webcomics are poo poo at making money for how many people read them so anyone who can turn all those sweet nerdviews into money is going to be rolling in it.

katlington posted:who even eats oatmeal anymore? russians idk? I made some absolutely loving delicious oatmeal in my Zojirushi rice cooker last week. Rolled oats, butter, apples, blueberries, real Vermont maple syrup, cinnamon, tiny bit of nutmeg. Hot drat, that was delicious. Easily the best oatmeal I've ever had and it didn't involve any memes, utterly awful artwork, or terribly poo poo nerd "humor".

ArbitraryC posted:iirc the dude behind the oatmeal actually studied markets and such for his degree instead of art and based his comics around things that would optimize search engine hits. He didn't just stumble into being a well known internet thing he actually had a lot of expertise behind making it happen which is actually kinda cool in my opinion. Yeah the stuff he makes isn't exactly highbrow, but it's almost an art in itself how digestible his stuff is for pretty much everyone. Yeah its cool. Really cool. I think its so cool how this guy did that. Very cool.

LeVar Burton worked his rear end off and dragged in a cavalcade of stars so he could raise as much money as possible for children's literacy but it turns out he could've just drawn some cats on cards and save all that effort. On the plus side I guess you could play the card game even if you were functionally illiterate so I guess everyone wins in the end??

God, I'm behind on Internet memes. I thought this was going to be something like that old Bonsai Kittens hoax shock site, which so enraged one of my mates in high school that she did her public speaking presentation to English class on how cruel it was and it should be banned (not realising that they didn't really put kittens in jars).
