Okay,
this (by
greendalek -- Peter Vinton Jr.) is f'ing
brilliant. If most of the unfamiliar references are what they think
they are, then I just learned a lot more about a game I've heard of
but never played than I've picked up from people actually talking
about the game -- and even if I'm wrong about the game, it's a
delightfully concise satirical examination of the subcategories of
my subculture. (It's a couple of screens long, but I called it
"concise" because it packs so much into the space it takes up.)
Figured it deserved its own entry instead of waiting for the next time I get around to a "link sausage" post.
(BTW, thanks for all the encouragement regarding my upcoming photo exhibition in September!)
POSTSCRIPT: A web search suggests that the references are to a television show, not a game. So the game I'm thinking of must have been inspired by the television show, I guess.
(no subject)
the show postdates it by a lot.
