    I needed Twilight for a research paper and I said almost this exact sentence to the clerk.

    edit: he said he was sorry.

    It's our fault for not liking it though, and that's why we won't buy it.

    I'm writing a paper on the evolution of Gothic Literature (which started as poor literature that was wildly popular), and using Twilight as one of the examples of horrible, just-for-sales reading that began the genre.

    but, isn't this the exact sort of activity where, if it's for you, you could just go do it?

    i loved Tycho's review of the game which was basically "if you are good at this game you are actually skilled at skateboarding, which is the opposite of why you would play a simulation"

    This is pretty much exactly what Gabe tweeted back when they got the game:
    I like playing TH games because I CANT RIDE A REAL SKATEBOARD!

    Although frankly, I don't know what they expected when they released a $120 game where you have a good chance of breaking your neck.

    You're allowed to have negative opinions, just not before you drop 100 bucks on his new toy.

    EDIT: For me, Boom Boom Huck Jam is such a retarded sounding name I can't bother to try any products from somebody associated with it.

    They can't get penetrate the tutorial, though, so densely knit are the ambiguities of their infernal demon plank.

    I find myself caught between the reasonable and funny arguments of Jerry, and my unending love of Tony Hawk, the only athlete or former athlete I can name off the top of my head that would qualify for a resurrection of the Pro Stars cartoon.

    Great punchline. Random thing though- I feel Tycho's expression in the last panel should be a little.... angrier.

    But other than that, it was an overall awesome strip.
