    Why would I not be surprised to find out that this was based on a real father/sons talk in the Krahulik house ?

  • PonyPony Registered User regular

    From the first panel I thought it was going to be an altercation during a "The Floor is Lava" game.

    The world has passed me by...

    Notice the guy at the next table who turns his head upon hearing "hell dimension".

    At least no witchery or ICBM was involved.

    And here I got yelled at for kicking my brother in the face and getting my sock stuck in his braces. Ahh, simpler times.

    All the faces in this one are very well done. The brothers' sideways glare at each other in the end is a cute touch as well.

    Welcome to 21st century parenting. Sure beats arguments about mowing the lawn.

    Now you have to stop feuds over server admin rights.

    I swear I've heard this story about the kids before. Was it in a news post or something?

    There was a incident on the Mincraft server that Gabe and Little Gabe have involving Jerry's son Eliot. Both Gabe and Tycho both wrote news posts about it so I'm not spreading rumors here. The short version is Eliot got banhammered from the server.

    I have had this conversation several times with my two sons.

    Perfect timing. Just last night I was playing co-op Spelunky with my kids (10 and 7). The 7 year old was slow to get ready for bed and missed his 'turn' several times so he was super whiny and upset when it finally was his turn to play. He started being 'unhelpful' and threatening to kill the dog and whipping me, so I fought back of course. Things slightly settled down but then I picked him up and threw him up to disarm an arrow trap with his face.

    He started crying and my wife got pissed but it was worth it. No one threatens my dog.

    Hrm. My high school best friend's earliest memory of us was shoving my little brother under the sofa cushions, sitting on him, and then farting...

    Hell dimension indeed.

    Kittens get socialized when they claw at other kittens and get clawed back. Kittens taken out of the litter too early don't go through this processes and grow up to be assholes.

    Tell your wife the kid needs to learn consequences.

    Breaking someone's bed in MC should be a capital crime.

    Death is one thing. Dying 40km from the origin, unknowingly sans your bed, is quite another.

    Man, my little sister and I had an Applesoft Basic fight (thanks, programming for kids book!) back in the '80s. It started when I wrote a program that asked you what your name was, and when she put in her name, the program would insult her. This stuff ain't all that new.
