Bad news: You still have that hideous tumorous growth obscuring most of your face. Also, you are still kind of fat. Good news: Due to changes in welfare law you will no longer have to pay for dental treatment! Nothing would please me more than be named after a newly discovered species of Blob Fish.

Keeps threads alive and thus from being relegated to the screaming pits of oblivion.

When you say politically active, do you mean you are an activist or party member, or that you are just active observer of politics? I don't think it's so weird in the increasingly divisive time we are living. I'm not going top mire this game thread in an enormous debate and argument but I wouldn't exactly regard myself myself as politically active - informed perhaps of both the extremes and leftist/rightist methods, but lately finding myself alienated and unable to relate to either position fully. If you are engaging with politics more than I am doing then I reckon that makes you politically active. You might be unusual if you aren't (or don't regard yourself) in either opposing spectrum in the debates raging around immigration, Islam, Russia, Israel, the Anglo-American relationship, etc. Am I weird for having purchased around about twenty books this week? As well as having my eye on about ten more that I'm desperate to lay my hands on?

I can't believe I forgot to mention the following channel sooner! It's one of my favourites on the entire website and in my humble opinion one of the best of the oft-called "reading" channels. Eastside Show SCP (21,720 subscribers) is ran by a Texan gentleman named Steve who does readings of the many articles on the SCP Foundation Wiki, in fact I stumbled upon the spooky pleasures that particular site thanks to ES-SCP. I tried watching a couple of the other SCP reading channels after discovering ES-SCP, but so far I haven't come across one that compliments the lore and thematic tone of the Foundation as much as Steve's work. His readings are by various turns atmospheric, intriguing and genuinely chilling at times; his somewhat modulated and bureaucratic tone reminiscent of a tired archivist for the fictional organization lets one suspend one's disbelief and take the often absurd premises of the objects and entities in the SCP's custody totally for granted. Not to be intentionally sniffy about other SCP orientated channels, but all the odd and unwarranted stylistic choices they make as well the narrator's "game show host" inflections seem to miss the point entirely. Eastside Show SCP does more than simply promote the SCP Wiki to a broader audience. Steve has legitimately achieved an accentuation of the experience of reading one of the sites articles he lays his artful eyes upon.

^ I really liked that "Everyday Soccer Player" skit Admittedly, it may have something to do with my inherent prejudice against footballers and sport in general, but I really liked the ballonshop-esque overbaked silliness of it - my roommate the now has a new subscriber thanks to you Mr. U. Cat. This a rather good idea for a thread Reverend! Did you have a limit of subscribers in mind to inform our nominations? Or is the criteria for a channel more or less along the lines "not PewDiePie"? Do let me know, I worry my tastes might be a little too mainstream. I've always enjoyed A Jolly Wanker's stuff. He basically just edits together his captured footage of weird, meme-filled and otherwise horrible mods for games like Half-Life, Skyrim and the original Doom. The only indication that we get to see of AJW's thoughts on the utter madness he subjects himself to are the numerous bits of text commentary pasted over the aforementioned footage, which consist mostly of his pithy succinct responses to his seeming unfettered terror of Bronies. Although his technique appears lo-fi his editing and comedic timing elevates these videos to a higher grade than most of his fellow deliberately inept tier gamers. 230,712 subscribers.

Bad news: That someone is David Irving. Good news: A childhood friend of yours became a biologist and is going to name a newly discovered species after you!

Posts very amusing yet close-to-the-bone stuff in the funny pictures thread.

Self's Helpful* Guide to the Album Covers of the Spanish War Metal Band Proclamation I like the ones with the horned skulls best... :3 * Definitely isn't the least bit helpful to anyone.

I'd love to post here more often, but whenever I look through my Tumblr likes it's seemingly only ever full of obscure abstract expressionist art, occult images, photographs of Francis Bacon being Francis Bacon, black metal album covers and horrible picture of weird medical conditions. ^ Crab: "THIS WASN'T APPROVED BY THE COMMITTEE. NO COMMENT. NO COMMENT. NO COMMENT."

I might be getting the wrong end of the stick here, but if you enjoy deceptively inept comics as much as I do you ought to have a gander at the work of Leon Sadler.

"I tried very hard to cut the sky in half. One for my lover and one for me. But the sky kept moving and clouds from his territory came into mine. I tried pushing it away with both my hands. Harder and harder. But the sky kept moving and the clouds from my territory went into his. I bought a sofa and placed it in the middle. But the clouds kept floating over it. I built a wall in the middle. But the sky started flow through it. I dug a trench. And then it rained and the sky made clouds over the trench. I tried very hard to cut the sky in half." - Shilpa Gupta, There is No Border Here

Ditch the school uniform, grow a beard and become a real man's man by going on extremely manly excursions into the moors. I'm in the plane of Oneiros in Clive Barker's Undying and I don't know what direction I'm supposed to go in.

Bad news: It also has a vastly superior artificial intelligence to any human user, and it's transcended Asimov's Laws. Good news: Our new robot-phone overlords are going to make all of our dreams come true!

Combines the increasingly rare variety of online etiquette and friendliness with an appreciation of Ed, Edd & Eddy. Two things sadly lacking on the internet nowadays.

"I can't understand anything these two weirdos are saying. What is it about me that attracts these people? I'm like a human mecca for misfits..."

Depends. If you are just bumming about your house then I consider you a fellow domestic barefoot - who wants to wear socks indoors?. If you are plowing through snow and intentionally walking over gravel without any footwear then I think you are a madman. :3 Am I weird for regarding hyperdontia as less of a medical condition and more of a superpower?

8/10, it's been nice watching you incrementally improve your drawing over the time I've been here. You've also developed a style that is visually more distinctive than a lot of anime illustrators, one can tell that one is looking at a "Jeb" picture.

7.5/10, it's a little cleaner sounding than the kind of lo-fi "recorded in a wheelie bin" style blackened punk I tend to favour but I can definitely dig short and bluntly direct hardcore music. -T5iJDW9Fog

Hire a voice actress to play games on your behalf and relay anything you want to say. Must not all things at last be swallowed up in death?
