You need to always add a Ben-ghazi quote on images of Ben. :colbert:

Here's a small selection:

quote:

Poor Old friend of the family Thinks It's A Cadillac. #17,627

I would have been back earlier, but I got jewed in CounterStrike, friend of the family. #21,860

I had a dream that I was giving a speech in speech class and I ended up saying something really racist, and then to cover for it I claimed it was because I secretly wished I was black. I really shouldn't do any public speaking ever. #21,601

A black guy who can't find crack? I think not. #21,603

I don't hate anyone. Except those gull durned black people. #13,857

You know what they don't have here in college? Black people. #18,464

There are absolutely no black people here. #18,465

And you call black people cute names like dawg. Well, not as cute as that, generally more very very offensive. #19,678

And they get to have sex with thirteen year olds all the time. Instead of once or twice a month. #21,244

Why don't you come with me, little girl, on a magic carpet ride? #18,734

Wow, Hades, do you try to pursue homosexual relations with children age 8-13 too? #7,673

Children have nudity... #9,621

Legions of children worldwide are having sex with 40 year old men. #14,178

It's funny, oh, you need the e-mail he sent me when I revealed that he posted to alt.sex.children #14,747

On the same day he posted a message to alt.sex.children commenting that a previously posted story "got me hotter than hell, post some more man!!!" #14,726

And here's the link to the archive of Ben Lesnick quotes: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/4acb72f26cad04a030ceeae5fc9e219e

Are you talking about text titles on the UI only or actually using the music? I guess that might land you in trouble depending on the popularity of Solar Plebeian.

You basically have to include "Major Tom" as tribute to Pgabz (and also to David Bowie).

Is everyone here an old? I had a grandpa that fought in WW2 but he was a my great-grandpa (also captured in the Pacific and died in a POW camp, rip dude I never met). My grandads were both way too young to be involved in WW2.

WW2 corrects to WWE on my phone and I almost left it like that.

My grandpa who fought in WWII is 92. His youngest kid (my uncle) is in his 50's. My uncle has kids in high school.

It's not crazy for a teenager to have a grandpa who fought in WWII. Are you in grade school still? What age do you consider "old"? (I know when I was 20 I had a roommate who was 30 and I thought he was Methuselah)

lol it's definitely a mystery.

Seriouspost, I have to believe it's because of "design by committee." The UI in SC seems like a hodgepodge of half-cooked ideas. This may be a bit short-sighted on my part, but I'm just one guy, and I don't have to compromise with like 15 other people (or, 1 other huge idiot) when it comes to implementation of ideas. I just have an idea, ask you guys, you help make it better and more funny, then I hook it up. No design review meetings, no "well, ehm, that's ok but can we have more <thing> and less <thing>?"

I'm pretty sure someone somewhere said the UI was designed by the guy who did the Iron Man suit UI in the movies because.. MOVIES and HOLLYWOOD and there was no thought given to how it would actually work for a game.

I may have dreamed that?

I'm Sandi's age, 34. The "is everyone an old" comment was mostly a joke, though I am genuinely surprised that my family apparently had children younger than the norm. Early 20s, I guess? I was born in 81, my mom in 60, and her mom in 36 or 37? Yeah, if she were still alive she'd be 80ish. Huh.

Sorry for the lovely derail, it's just interesting to me.
