I hate Boston but their covers were great. Same with Journey, remember their Atari game?

E-



There is a recent rhythm game called Thumper that is inspired by their covers.



Unfortunately, instead of prog rock it features electronic music. It's still cool, though.

Motions of the sense

And it's made by one one of the guys from Lightning Bolt, oddly enough. I just thought it was a Rez ripoff, didn't realize the Journey connection.

Other than involving music and looking like it was made on acid Thumper is nothing like Rez.

It is a cartoon cat (well, a cat-rabbit, I think?), who says he's not a cat person. It is not very funny. It's from a cartoon for kids.

So which horrible British "blokes mag" was this culled from?


I remember there was a study done where people were asked to look at a series of quotes and determine whether they were from blokes mags or convicted rapists. Turns out, no, you can't tell the difference.

Mmmm, classy bloke.

quote:

In February 1998, one of Brooker's one-shot cartoons caused the magazine to be pulled from the shelves of many British newsagents. The cartoon was titled "Helmut Werstler's Cruelty Zoo" and professed to be an advert for a theme park created by a Teutonic psychologist for children to take out their violent impulses on animals rather than humans. It was accompanied by photoshopped pictures of children smashing the skulls of monkeys with hammers, jumping on a badger with a pitchfork, and chainsawing an orang-utan, among other things

no.

Like, it's literally a desert with a piece of bacon stuck on top of it. Not bacon bits or bacon broken up into smaller pieces. Nope. Just grab one off the griddle and slap it right on there.

Someone actually said, "You know what this needs? Bacon." And other people agreed. And they put it on the menu.

I had a piece of peanut butter pie for desert. No bacon.
