Hey, everyone. As I type this, I'm listening to MSNBC tell me that Linsanity is responsible for the recent bump in the stock market. Seriously. I'm counting on you to bring analysis that is at least that cogent today.
Okay, play nice. Here's a Youtube clip to get you started.
I should've known that Eric R Peacock is dead jokes would be too insider-baseball-y.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't worry about it. The ninja isn't going to hold a grudge over something like that. Also, you're consistently hilarious.
DeleteHere's what ninja said to me:
Delete"Didn't we just have a run-in over the inside-baseball shit a short while ago? Knock it off. You're better than that. You can expect a much harsher response should there ever be a next time."
I forgot about the awaness thing. I thought you'd get a pass on that because you turned yourself in and because it was mostly other people who blew it out of proportion. There's also the possibility that your commenter suicide over at Gawker was noticed by the Ninja Squadron and construed as dissent. Anyway, I'm sure you can stay out of trouble.
DeleteI heard the Ninja auditioned for the 1800 Tequila commercials but they thought he was too much of a smarmy douche.
DeleteI thought this was just a clever ruse for IMG to steal all of our Deadspin passwords--assuming most people will use the same one--but now I see that Google handles the login so I can get into this.
ReplyDeleteThe custom CAPTCHAs are a nice touch too http://imgur.com/nZz2X
Deleteok so who are the ninjas. post suspects in the replies.
ReplyDeleteThe editors take turns.
DeleteNope. None of this. Any names get deleted.

DeleteWell let's see, you got Leonardo, Raphael, Michelangelo, Donatello, Splinter, Snake Eyes, Storm Shadow, Lo Pan, Thunder guy, Lighting guy, Rain guy, Joe Musashi and the rest of the Shinobi guys, Hattori Hanzō and Ra's Al Ghul. I'm probably missing someone though.
DeleteDon't forget me, Echo!
DeleteSho'nuff

ReplyDeleteNo dawg, it isn't.
Seriously. What the fuck is that? I mean.... What?
DeleteI'm very confused by this as well.
DeleteHe thought it wasn't long enough to collect his +1s...
DeleteFor the record, I recognize that my "LIN'Hopital Rules!" jokes was both mathematically, and comically, a stretch.

ReplyDeleteCan someone explain what he did there?
Well, some asshole created a Deadspin account called whiteteaandpoptarts, then he posted a giant turd of a comment that somehow tries to relate bondage/S&M to being gay.
DeleteWhat you have to know is that whitetea is a major, major retard.
Close, Anon. You actually have a typical Gawker commenter coming over to Deadspin and attempting "humor", with typically typical results. Typical.
DeleteUggghhhhhhhhhhhh.
ReplyDelete+1 for EMS's joke. -1000000 for that reply.

ReplyDeleteHow did a non-starred commenter approve a comment?
Damn I remember seeing this when it first happened, but I don't think I noticed that he was unstarred. Apparently he's almost exclusively a starred Kotaku commenter. I would also like to know what happened.
