Anybody remember his role in Forbidden Planet? Back in 1956? It was great.
Also who the hell is shiggy?
You get out right now
Don't come back until you've gained some culture.
Really, guy?
Over a game designer?
Seriously? Miyamoto is big time in world changing stuff in regards to entertainment.
You wouldn't have your meetups via these forums I bet if it weren't for him.
I have no idea what this means, but besides the fact that MKR already said he was joking -
a game designer's nickname is not really what passes for must-know culture.
I want to say Mike and Jerry's lives kinda changed with Nintendo stuff when they were kids. I would like to think with out Miyamotos creations they may not have gone this webcomic route. Thus no forums and no long lasting friendships via meetups that NaS has sometimes....
Wait this was about if Miyamoto died would anyone care right?
This reads to me like you're saying if there weren't PA forums, I wouldn't have any friends.

But Miyamoto isn't putting his face out there all the time - he doesn't really make the connection with his audience, his characters do.
Like, I would be sad if Mike or Jerry passed away because they are out there with messages every two or three days. I have a handle of their personality, to a degree.
I don't know shit about Miyamoto and I've played every Zelda game thats ever been released.
Me: "Awwwww, Leslie Nielsen died!"
GF: "Who?"
Me: "Leslie Nielsen! Didn't you ever see The Naked Gun?"
GF: "No."
Me: "Airplane?"
GF: "Nope."
Me: "Police squad?!"
GF: "I don't know who that guy is."
Me: "I don't know who I'm dating!"

I just had the thought that will the Penny Arcade forums eventually just stop existing? Will the comic ever stop? What if one of them dies, like Mr. G said?
they said before they don't intend on doing the comic forever
so at some point the comic will stop, and then the forum might live on for a while, but it'll probably die off too at some point
so it goes
Til they make enough to retire on, they don't really have much else on their resume
Maybe they could become full-time game reviewers but I think that'd be a step down for them
Mike and Jerry could easily, easily, step into any creative publishing and do well at it. They've already proven that they could publish their own video game, even though Jerry hated doing it. They could do children's books, graphic novels, they could split and Jerry could just write, and Mike could do art either for other writers or digital work or whatever.
They both have extremely marketable skills as a result of their 10 years experience at publishing the godfather of webcomics, not to mention starting a wildly popular children's charity and arguably the only pure gaming convention that blends corporate and public interests in one event.

That's definitely something you should fix.
Either bury her out back in the woods, or make sure she sees those movies.
End on
I wish that someway, somehow, that I could save every one of us

Tuesday is the next ultrasound! Gonna actually get pictures this time.
awesome! Hopefully this time the baby will look like something. It was a while before Henry looked like anything other than some strange static on a screen.
I swear to god, those technicians are more like voodoo shamans than actual doctors. They stare into a cloudy ether and can tell you what body parts they're looking at, it's insane.
I'm pretty sure Bill Nye had a stroke like last week
On November 16, 2010, Nye collapsed while giving a speech at the University of Southern California. He was unconscious for only 10 seconds, and a publicist said that he had exerted himself too much that day.
so, fuck you
AMP'd on

"Nobody went to his aid at the very beginning when he first collapsed -- that just perplexed me beyond reason," USC senior Alastair Fairbanks said. "Instead, I saw students texting and updating their Twitter statuses. It was just all a very bizarre evening."
Gah fuck those people.
Hold on Mr. Nye I gotta make a topic in SE++ first about how you are dying in my arms!

instead of helping Bill Nye, every student in the room just sat back and tweeted about Bill Nye fainting right in front of them

There are literally two places in the whole forum that deal with the comic exclusively, and that is the New Comic Thread and the comic edits thread.
Other than that people come here for something else.

so, fuck you
now, if khoo were to not have met mike and jerry, I'm not sure if we'd still have a penny-arcade as we know it
That man is my idol.
that sounds a hell of a lot like a stroke to me, publicist's word or not.
I sometimes forget there is a penny arcade comic
I ain't read it in a long ass time
but you cats is alright
and I have a place to spout opinions
A decade of wang clips and boner monuments.
I heard that you're a liar
just lying all the time
trying to make people sad
I come for the ladies.
Actually wait, no, I come for the penis.

Oh, oh no.
NO.
I'm sure he's fine. Please, let him be fine.
Now he knows how strokes work.
And luckily a lot of forumers fit that bill too!
pffft
he was poisoned by Beakman
Oh my!
EDIT: Wow my timing.
This was a while ago. He's fine.
I'm pretty sure he just fainted. It happens.
he is
at least
he's not dead
or in a coma
just a 10 second collapse

I am worried.
