swphreak Posted May 5, 2003 Share Posted May 5, 2003 Ok, for those of you that don't read the comic strip Penny Arcade, Gabe posted this Video. Originally said by gabe: I won’t lie to you. I have fought off my share of imaginary dark Jedi in my parent’s basement using only a broom stick and some light saber noises. I did not however videotape it. God bless this poor son of a bitch. His public humiliation might be the funniest thing I see all year. I hought the video was hilarious! Some people even put in the lightsaber effects in the second video! That kid is so ruined :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kjølen Posted May 6, 2003 Share Posted May 6, 2003 Wasn't as embarrassing as I thought it would be, yet I still feel bad for him. Did anyone else get the basketball clip at the end? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skate Boy Posted May 7, 2003 Share Posted May 7, 2003 Yeah, I did. I wonder if he was playing? I feel bad too, poor guys.(I'm just glad it wasn't me.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swphreak Posted May 7, 2003 Author Share Posted May 7, 2003 What teenager would get a stick, and swing it around pretending to be Darth Maul and RECORD it!? He is obviously ot the smartest kid in town..... Makes you wonder if maybe he did that on purpose?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kjølen Posted May 8, 2003 Share Posted May 8, 2003 Considering he kept walking towards the camera and the same time it goes to a different 'scene' of his playing, I think he DID try and record it:D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoom Rabbit Posted May 8, 2003 Share Posted May 8, 2003 Bad form. Look at you, making fun of that poor kid! His public embarrassment is now going across the internet and being viewed by millions of strangers, most of them laughing at him. And it isn't friendly laughter now, is it? I'm not saying it's wrong to chuckle when you see something like that--it's human nature. It should stop there, though, when a more sensible part of yourself feels sorry for him. Sure, he's a complete stranger. But what if he wasn't? What if he were such a Star Wars fan that he joined this forum and began posting here with us? Would any of you now making fun of him be able to 'look him in the eye' (as it were) and feel good about this cruel laughter? Hmph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuuki Posted May 8, 2003 Share Posted May 8, 2003 how odd, i seem to not be able to watch it... even after I downloaded wmp9 [edit]Nevermind [/edit] Dude that guy serioiusly doesnt know how to wield a weapon like that ^_^ Whoa, that guy's got the same body type as RFH!

swphreak Posted May 8, 2003 Author Share Posted May 8, 2003 I seriousl doubt he'll post here, or if he did, he would not tell that he was the kid. Heck, for all we know, the kid DOES post here! Still, that's the humiliation he gets for recording it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoom Rabbit Posted May 10, 2003 Share Posted May 10, 2003 Waaaaa-aaaah! *(Runs out, bawling like a Powerpuff Girl.)* No...in truth, in a lightsaber battle I would leave Darth Maul standing in the corner with his pants around his ankles, sucking his thumb and shivering at the blank horror of it all. Banzai! *(Draws a samurai sword and cuts his own hair, replacing it back in the scabbard too quickly to be seen clearly.)* See? Zoom=Papa-san. So why did I say what I did earlier? I admit it was a little harsh, but sometimes the path to becoming a good person is grown over so heavily that it can't be seen well at times, and I would make that path more obvious (with fire, if necessary) even though it is always one's own choice which direction to take. Anyone see Buckaroo Banzai Across the Eight Dimension? In that movie, Buckaroo stands up for a drunk lady at one of his rock concerts, against the jeers of the crowd, by reminding everyone, 'Hey, don't be mean. There's never any reason to be mean. Because, remember--no matter where you go...there you are.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kuuki Posted May 11, 2003 Share Posted May 11, 2003 well, its our obligation as a viewer to laugh at him. He's the fool who not only recorded himself being a fool, but also somehow got the damn thing on the net. On top of that someone remxing the video with proper sound ans special effects.

Wacky_Baccy Posted May 20, 2003 Share Posted May 20, 2003 A laughing stock with a donation fund at nearly $3k, though Link In truth, I found it more sad to watch than funny, cause I know how embarrassed the kid must've been... Especially once he realised he was holding it by its 'blade' XD ...Ohhh, I'm cruel... But such is life ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
