Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

    Wait that's what that gorgeous looking Helvetica comic is about? Fuuuuck.

    Gotta stop sitting on ideas over here before they all get made better than I could do.

    that's be a super sweet concept though

    humans actually having a "thing" that makes them special

    other than "heart" or "determination" or something wanky like that

    maybe we're the only sapient species can see purple or something

    or maybe our ability to sneeze is a deadly viral projectile to everyone else

    I always thought our thing was being the sole sentient form of life in the universe.

    Is that a downer?

    It is, isn't it.

    maybe ear wax is actually a fatal toxin, forbidden from use in intergalactic wars

    "this deadly poison was concocted from the exterior audial tract excreta of 30 different humans, and is strong enough to kill a Frilgozian Doommammoth"

    Damn, always get those confused.

    Maybe that's our power. Confusion.

    You discounted only one part of his statement

    The other part was just as important.

    Because otherwise we would not know what to think or how to react.

    I might be all "Oh, neat. A turtle!" But that isn't the appropriate reaction and now we know that.

    since I’m not tabling at TCAF, if you want a sweet piece of Partridge you’ll have to find me. here’s a handy chart to help you.
    alternately, if you have twitter, just tweet @empartridge and I can probably let you know where I am. I’ll have some Mount Pleasant minicomics, and maaaybe some prints! even if you don’t want to buy anything, don’t hesitate to say hi if you see me.

    if you're goin to tcaf you should say hi!

    wish i could go to conventions where webcomics were

    In Men In Black, human thought is an infectious disease.

    In the Asimov story "Hostess", humans all have a thought parasite that infects aliens

    This was not a joke. Laughter is inappropriate.
    I should have specified.

    I haven't seen MiB since I was a kid. Is that why aliens are always hanging out on earth?

    The universe is a pretty big place, though.

    Law of averages says that there has to be something else out there.

    in the movie it's just a throw away comment about what some aliens think of humans, I think.

  • rfilyawrfilyaw Registered User regular
    Sorry, yeah. I should have said SOME aliens consider it an infectious disease, so they're not supposed to have some telepathy device. As langly said, just a throw-away gag

    that said, man. MiB1 was so good, but MiB2 was awful. I hope MiB3 is okay.
