Commenter Of The Day: LAN Party Edition [Commenter Of The Day]

When I was in college I had a newish Vaio desktop (with a 1-gig AMD! OMG!) and a Sony monitor and was fairly happy with myself. It was kind of purplish, but awesome. When my The University of Texas at Austin dormmate Eddie installed Counter Strike on it I suddenly had less time to study or try to get dates. Between the two of us, I had the vastly superior computer setup and therefore I’d sometimes find him playing at my desk. No biggie. If he’d share his ill-gotten beer I could certainly share my computer. He even asked if he could borrow it for a LAN party on Friday night. I said sure, not knowing exactly what he was talking about. I nearly ruined my date when I came home, not alone, on Saturday night with a ladyfriend only to discover the computer was gone. Had I been robbed? No. The computer was just in the lobby, as confirmed by a phone call, leaving me with a dorm room all to myself for a different kind of party — one that involved girls. So when we said the Austin F1 track looked like a bong and Chairman Kaga disagreed we can, at least, confirm his tale of Austin’s long relationships with gaming. More »

    This spoof is also hilarious!

  2. @Ash78, now featuring the Tyke Hoon: And Ash, awesome beer! Racer5 is one of my fave IPAs…Bear Republic has a reciprocal agreement with Stone Brewing (home of Arrogant Bastard, among others) for distribution of Bear beers in So Cal. And Bear is kind enough to make the trek to the annual Stone Brewing Invitational Beer Fest. Good times.

    My friends still think I have “the fast computer” 8 years after the build from used parts.
    Hey, it runs Starcraft 2 even though it doesn’t meet minimum specs.

  5. @Jackie: It is whatever size is in proportion with her body.

    Which is to say, there is no right answer. A woman’s beauty is not dependent on her cup size.

    Although, personally, a 5’5″, 115-125 lbs brunette with c-cups is pretty damn perfect.

  10. @xxpor: Arrogant Bastard is delicious, for lighter beers with a heavy flavor I have a man crush on magic hat number 9, that shit is fucking delicious

    loveableterror- has an SRT and knows how to wield it!

  11. @xxpor: Drinking a bottle of that as we speak. Gonna’ chase it down with a bottle of Ruination.

  12. @pauljones: Please tell me, O Master of Mammaries, King of Cleavage, I must know! Is it a handful? A mouthful? Both? Bigger than my head? I MUST KNOW!!!

  13. @Baby Beater Benz: Have you tried Arrogant Bastard? That will put some hair on your balls.

  16. @Jackie: Well, luckily for you, pauljones has an answer.

  17. @Baby Beater Benz: I prefer to think of it in terms of the Ash exclusionary rule: You’re so good that they had to rule you out of the running to give the new guys a chance.

  18. @OA 5599: I C what you did there. Congrats Kaga!

  19. @Ash78, now featuring the Tyke Hoon: I’ve asked my girl if she’s ever said that about me, but she never answers, only mutters to herself about hotdogs and hallways, or billiards and rope. Then she leaves the house to buy fresh batteries. I wonder whats she’s on about?

    Jackie

  20. Congrats Kaga.

    “all your bong are belong
    to us”

    And I thought I was hot shit in college because I could dial into the VAX from my room with my Z80-based dumb terminal and a 1200 baud modem.

  21. Congratulations, Kaga! Your COTD was well received by this young lady, who is VERY interested in hearing more about gaming sticks. Or at least what your wife thinks about them.

    Cheeseslap: Loves me some Neons

  22. @$kaycog: You have managed to raise that eternal question which has tormented Man since the beginning of time, that which even Aristotle, Socrates and Einstein had no answer for…

    “Just how much boobs is too much?”

    Jackie

  23. @GreenN_Gold:

    Erk.

    I prefer beers which are opaque, and preferably unfiltered to some degree.

    Blue Moon, while light-colored, is unfiltered. Yum.

    I’m waiting for an even darker, heavier Guiness. I want to be able to stand a spoon up in it.

    More Guiness trivia: It tastes better the closer you are to the east coast, in the US. Furthermore, I found Nova Scotia Guiness to taste different, as in much, much better than US Guiness.

    I’ve gotta book a few weeks in the UK for vacation.

  24. @Real Tomsk of Genius: No, that’s not her. I believe this is the girl.

  25. @twitchykun(lvl. 75 otaku Hoon): And with all of their males dying of starvation, dehydration…etc, that leaves more for us.

    RB26Skyline

  26. @BullittFan_Fords4Life: Cheese. Well, she’s not sitting on it, she’s saying it. Or maybe she is sitting on it.

    $kaycog

  27. @$kaycog: I know her; she was an exchange student from the former Yugoslavia I went to school with. Said she was from a town called Chernolby…Cheryonlob…something like that…

    Real Tomsk of Genius

  28. @$kaycog: Hmm. What is she sitting on to cause such a ridiculously happy grin?

    BullittFan_Fords4Life: Now Featuring More Caffeine!

  29. @$kaycog: That’s simultaneously creepy and awesome.

  30. @loveableterror- has an SRT and knows how to wield it!: Well it’s very dark by my standards, which probably explains why I don’t care for very many dark beers.

    Miller Lite, however, is delicious.

  31. I’m still rocking my DFI Lan Party Ultra-D motherboard with an AMD Opteron 165, 939 fo life.

  32. So my wife’s not playing Xbox?

    I had no idea.

    Congrats man, great COTD.

    leavethegun-takethecannoli

  33. @GreenN_Gold: Smithwicks isnt dark! Not even close! Hell guiness doesnt compare to this dark stout… random trivia fact: guiness isnt brown, it’s ruby red, almost blood colored, hold it up to the light and enjoy it, its kinda pretty

    loveableterror- has an SRT and knows how to wield it!

  34. @Baby Beater Benz: + 1 for Smithwick’s, one of a very few dark beers I like.

  35. @$kaycog: “Baby, you make me wish I had three hands.”

  36. Im single, and I got the second joke.

    Good one on the COTD.
    Glad to see I’m not the only Austinite who remembers Wing Commander, and Digital Anvil.

    Who remembers the movie?

  37. Congratulations Chairman Kaga! I hope you like your new award! I believe it is a Alburn Speedster. I’m sure you’ll enjoy as much as she is!

  41. @$kaycog: Sorry, babe, but we’re up to PS3 now. You’re going to have to take off that outdated top.

  42. A Melon Head to you, good sir, for a fine COTD.

  43. Does Mrs. Kaga’s device have USB? Maybe she likes LAN parties too.

  46. Congratulations!

  47. @Jackie: Sure she is! When you’re playing games, the firmness of the controls are very important, and can often be difficult to judge from a picture alone. Feedback is also very important.

    Seriously, look at that! You can’t even see the steering controls in that picture!

    pauljones

  48. @pauljones: I just bet you do! I too have a good imagination. ;)

    $kaycog

  49. @Ash78, now featuring the Tyke Hoon: That’s what she said.

    pauljones

  50. @pauljones: I don’t think she’s leaving much to your imagination there.

    Jackie

  51. Here, enjoy a delicious IPA until your wife comes back out of the room.

    EDIT: I had no idea that was going to be so huge!

    What?

    Ash78, now featuring the Tyke Hoon

  52. Oh, how I love LAN parties. Let me count the ways:

    Huh. 12. It’s 12.

    Live_axle

  53. Well I’ll drink to that…
    with the most inappropriate beer out there from, you guessed it, Belgium.

    Franzouse

  54. Dude! I still have one of those!

    Wait, what?

    Oh yeah! Congratulations on your COTD, Chairman Kaga!

    pauljones

  55. @$kaycog: Oooh! Oooh! I like to play games, too! I’m really good with my imagination!

    pauljones

  56. Being a Texan, I know what the appropriate prize would be. What an excellent COTD! Congratulations! Now enjoy your prize of Lone Star Beer and Barbecue!

    worthless_cos

  57. I have that same joystick. I sits in my closet because I bought a steering wheel setup.

    Congrats on the COTD!!!

    bacon117 thinks 3D porn brings a new dimension to the money shot

  58. Very well-done.

    I’m lacking in my COTD skills, it seems. I had a good run, but you damned kids are taking over.

    /old man

    I’m going back to listening to Sister Sledge on youtube…

  59. @irishman72:

    Perfect?

    Guiness and Smithwick’s!!!!!

  60. @JoeDapper: There’s stuff to live for in Korea. Like Korean girls. Things like my favorite group, Girls’ Generation.

  61. The resemblance is uncanny. Well played!

  62. Force feedback joystick sales may take a sudden uptick, too.

  63. Congratulations, Mr. Chairman Kaga! I would like to gift you with an F1 racer which will be brought to you by this lovely lady. She likes to play games.

  64. Congrats on your hilarious COTD!!!

    Your prize: A 1 week holiday in this idyllic place!

  65. Ha ha, Chairman! Congrats on the COTD!

    I couldn’t find a subject-appropriate brew (joystick beer? LAN beer? nothing), so I give you the perfect Black & Tan, Guiness and Bass, on the house.

    irishman72

  66. DILDOS RIGHT?

    WE’RE TALKING ABOUT DILDOS?!?!

    (grats on cotd bro, well deserved :D )

    spiegel1

  67. Yep, you’d be surprised how much girls enjoy playing with joysticks. Especially those with force feedback.

    Congratulations, Kaga! You’ve done it again.

    Jackie

  68. yep, Controllers with vibration function.

    twitchykun(lvl. 75 otaku Hoon)

  69. sad but true, its not uncommon for Korean youths (we are talking in Korea now) to game so much for so long they actually die, starvation, dehydration, exhaustion..what a world.

    JoeDapper

  70. Be glad you don’t have to get the second joke. Obviously a newlywed.

    Congrats on the COTD, Chairman Kaga!
