Creator Backlash: 6 Classics Despised by the People Who Created Them
Fake American: Despite being "America's Only Humor & Video Site," quite a few of their writers aren't American but will sometimes try to pretend they are--usually with Eagle Land type 2 results.
Life Imitates Art: The photoshop contest If Video Games Were Realistic included a photoshop of a Guitar Hero guitar with 18 frets (each with six sub-buttons) and six strum bars, mocking the fact that playing Guitar Hero is much simpler than playing a real guitar. Not a year later, Harmonix announces that Rock Band 3 will include a "Pro Mode" for instrument, which will use special controllers designed to perfectly simulate playing the actual instrument. Now take a look at their Pro Mode guitar.
Mean Character, Nice Actor: Dan O'Brien's writing persona does things that would terrify Charles Manson; Dan O'Brien himself is a somewhat awkward nerd who has a talent for beatboxin' Team Plasma and Kyurem, the last of the regular reader commentators uses the name A. E. Neuman.
No Export for You: 6 Arcade Games Too Awesome to Get Released in the West.
Old Shame: 10 Movies That Famous People Don't Want You to See and 5 Classic Cartoons They Don't Want You To See.
