The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
my current mindf--- is that i just replaced the battery on a friends security system, and now it's gone berserk(electronic locks are for gay paranoid people, and so are door knobs that electrocute you.). so basically, i'm stuck here, while there is a mad ADEMCO Vista system beeping it's metal ass off while i'm on my buddy's comp trying to figure it out.
another mindf--- : i'm trying to figure out why this girl i like in school hates my guts now, when we've been friends since the beginning of 9th grade(last year), and now that it's 10th grade, she wants nothing to do with me(she runs away from me, and that sucks because i try not to look scary, which is really frickin' hard when you're 6'4".)!
She physically runs from you? Like when you meet up after 1st Period, when everyone is in the halls, she makes a mad dash in the opposite direction from you? Thats awesome.
And three posts in and the PC-Police sound the alarm. You had to know that was coming. I give it three minutes before the indignant get this thing locked.
If you edit your OP to actually include things that are "mindfucks" you'll stand a good chance of not having your thread closed.
I'm guessing by MINDFUCK the OP just means "WTF". It's nice to know the youth of America is getting away from the trashing of the English language - even if it is a migration to terms like "MINDFUCK".

My current mind fuck, as you put it, is that you actually created this thread and just used the word gay in a derogatory fashion to mean stupid.
gack, sorry, i had my friend actually type that bit(he misinterpreted what i told him, though, the idiot), because i somehow kicked myself in the balls(still trying to figure it out).
and, Tav, ShutTheFuckUpAlready. i've heard so many FA jokes like that, it gets annoying.
Newbie Guy: You are typing in a manner suggesting great distress. You should probably, like, meditate or something before continuing. Or at least make an H/A thread instead.
I thought this was some sort of bizarre acronym relating to Monday Night Football.

Woah, dude, it was a joke.
Listen to Jewcar. You might wanna alleviate some of that stress or something, because nothing good is going to come from acting like this.

My current biggest mindfuck is people who knowingly censor themselves on the fucking internet. I mean really, the fucking nternet. If ever there was a fucking bastion of indecency and vulgarity, this is it. I probably say fuck here about 50x more than I say it in real life, and I fucking say fuck a whole fucking lot in real life.

And that's because he's a cunt. But then again I'm a cunt too, because we're all a bunch of dirty undignified cunts online. It's the internet fuckwad theory personified and fucking let loose.
My mindfuck (by the OP's terms): People who say that those who swear have a stunted vocabulary. What the fuck are these people on?! Some of the most intelligent people I've met swear like an Irish Carpenter whose just smashed his hand with a hammer.
Fucking fuck.
...Fuck.

You're such a hypocrite, Hacks. You'll throw "fuck"s out left, right and center, but you won't even use a harmless little i.
"I" can go fuck itself. What the fuck did i ever do for me, anyways?
What have I done for you lately? You and I never go to dinner anymore! I want a divorce! I get all the credit! I hate you!
I am going to kill you in your sleep. I will then drag your body out to the nearest quarry and bury you underneath a pile of rocks. After all this, I will live out the rest of my years on a beach in Fiji, drinking endless amounts of Mai Tais and doing cocaine off the tits of an attractive young olive-skinned woman whose name I can't pronounce and language I can't speak.
Read this. Also, experience tells me that this sort of loose list thread will devolve into the most inane bickering over something someone will say in a couple of pages. And it'll probably involve girls, or something. Sorry.
They're not joining together in any visible way, and we must continue to endure their combined editorial output, so the announcement that GameSpy and IGN are merging is just like seeing Gamespy steal a furtive kiss from IGN at recess. When I read those sites, I am often struck by how little I actually want to. That sounds insulting, but I'm really trying to make a point. I don't read Car and Driver or Hot Rod or Good Housekeeping as a matter of course, but if I'm in a Dentist's office I'm going to reach over and flip through it. I have absolutely no investment in them. I read it because it's there.
Someone asked me who I turn to for reviews, since I make it plain that each outlet for such information is vile in its own way. The answer is I actually don't. I essentially "triangulate" a single meta-review out of each one I read, sometimes with the use of a tool like GameRankings. I also use an old methodology, one that seems to do the trick. I actually play videogames. This helps explain some of the anomalies inherent in game reviews, like how GameSpot really wasn't terribly impressed with Legacy of Kain: Defiance play-wise and scored it accordingly, but the IGN reviewer craved the storyline and longed to know more about a world he'd been revealing, one game at a time, since the Playstation One. Both things are true, in a way that's difficult to know unless you are up playing it very late. Very late indeed.
Like I mentioned yesterday, there's new pics of the Child's Play toys over at that portion of the site. There's a pretty big change in the pictures between December 3rd and December 4th, because the realities of this undertaking began to dawn on us. If we didn't get some sort of mechanism down for arranging things with like items the moment they come in, we'd be overwhelmed - and worse, when the good stuff finally got where it was supposed to go, distributing it would be a nightmare. You might be wondering what it takes to go from this and this to this, when when two more forklifts worth of toys come in the middle of the work. It takes about seven hours. Our best estimates, made with the help of Michael Thomas, come to about sixty-four thousand dollars worth of donations thus far. Sixty-four thousand doesn't even seem like a number to me at the moment. It seems imaginary, like using the term "unicorn" as a unit of measurement.
One last thing, at least, one last thing if you are a person who has some kind of online store package. The one we're using now is alright, but I think we are already outgrowing it. We'd really like to replace it with something better - do you have anything like this? Send a little maileroo to newstore@penny-arcade.com and tell me what you gots. I'm sure I could traipse all around the capital-I Internet listening to jackholes and watching flash animations, but I'd much rather give the business to a reader.
