I care because it's a genuinely better game that's got far more features than Pandemic and reading would tell people that.

I couldn't tell if you were saying the Steam version of the Mobile version is better...I like the board game, but my friends never want to play it (they hate all co-op board games, for some reason,) so if this can be played solo (like the mobile version of Elder Sign,) then I'm all for it.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that. Also I had no idea it was a board game as well. Under the same name?

No, that was a joke - "Pandemic" is a cooperative board game (with an iOS version) where you try to stop an outbreak from destroying the world, "Plague Inc." is a mobile/steam/originally flash game where you are an outbreak trying to destroy the world (especially motherfucking Madagascar).


Now, a funny pic:

Actually Pandemic is also a flash game with the same premise as Plague Inc.

Someone took a photo of one of Erwin Wurm's "Fat Car" sculptures and doctored the image to look like Lumpy Space Princess' car from the animated series Adventure Time.

Here's the original.

They do all sorts of weird things on local TV...
that said, when its 10 degrees outside you can run around with your Buffalo Bill ice cream pop all day without it melting!

I know! The brushstrokes and heavy paint use are very distracting from what could be some wonderful art. It also doesn't help that the artist was probably near sighted, as I can find no other explanation for the haziness of his work.

Well, I know nothing about art. I just thought they were kind of funny.

Though I'll admit I can tell in most of them his "style" clearly doesn't match the original painting.

And I'm guessing they're hazy because he doesn't want people just printing them out from the website since he sells prints.
