Reason: the heads are various posters, is this an in-joke I don't know Post: I like webcomic threads. they help people with their problems Forum: Social Entropy++ Assigned Moderators: WhipstitchZombie, Larlar, Bogey, Knob, potatoe, Orikaeshigitae Posted by: SabreMau Original Content: this has truly become a thing Or has it?

....... ....... ....... ....what?

the phrase you're looking for is 5 stars

Oh, why the hell not. 5 stars.

The heads are forum personas. The pony and wizard are from a kate beaton comic. The original ad is an old mac (I think? Mighta been windows it doesn't really matter) ad.

What is up on the screen is like four people's av/sigs in se++ and it is oppressive and awful and that brave woman tried to save us before the tyranny of the pony stole the hammer of shut up this is worth five stars sabremau is a treasure

hahahahaahaha

Holy shit

The timeline went something like this. During the week this thing of dancing avatars started popping up, and eventually natek had these five and put them in this sig: Robcham added his slightly later: After a few hours at work, I managed to finally upload the scrolling gif version, which was then turned by bombardier into a ytmnd about an hour later (which is where the music came from). I got the idea for the video around that point, but I couldn't do anything about it until I got home and started to work with my video-editing tools. So that got done around 1:30 this morning.

I want your babies SabreMau. I WANT YOUR BABIES.

All my fives...

I'm kind of split on this one On one hand this is really cool On the other it's basically a subforum injoke that makes no goddamn sense and is unfunny to people outside of the subforum Now, a lot of posters here give D and D reported posts shit for basically being glorified injokes, and that's totally fair; it's warranted as a matter of fact. I'll be the first to vote down a D and D reported post for being an injoke because, even though I post there, I expect that standard to be held; awesome posts must be awesome regardless of context unless the context is easily explained (like, two sentences explained) Now if we hold D and D to that standard, which I utterly agree with, we must hold all subfora to this standard. Therefore, I am giving this post a one star, not because it isn't awesome, because it is, but because of a combination of lack of context, subforum in-joke that isn't funny regardless of context to out-of-subforumers, lack of context in the OP, and context not easily explainable (as SabreMau brought everyone up to speed, that was a good paragraph or two of context) No offense meant guys

I gave it five, because even though it's an in-joke, it's awesome enough to me just as a parody of the Apple commercial.

Eh.

Hahaha, I wasn't expecting the pony.

It had no context for me, but I love random things so I'm five starring it anyway.

there is no reason to not 5 this whatsoever simply for that fucking pony

I never, ever would have guessed you are from D&D. What would you have guessed I was from? Or this is sarcasm I'm missing really badly Either way should end in hilarity, I'm guessing

My sarcasm detector's all out of wack today (I didn't know if he was going with the "tl;dr" joke or the "D and D is full of unreasonable assholes" joke, in all actuality)

And now this good thing has become a bad thing. Christmas is canceled.
