Re: Jack "Douchenut" Thompson writes an open letter to the ESA.

Understandable point --- people physically attacking Jack Thompson would only make Jack Thompson right?

Re: Jack "Douchenut" Thompson writes an open letter to the ESA.

Then he hops on a plane and heads for "The Long Island home of the CEO of the company (Take This) that made the murder simulator on which his son's killer trained," Thompson goes on.

WHOA

BACK THAT ASS UP.

Is Jack Thompson threatening the CEO of Take Two?

I think he is.

Penny-Arcade isn't loading. I think they're getting a lot of traffic. A LOT of traffic.

Yup, Phy. Paul Ebeiler = Paula Ebeil. It's a wee transparent. Thompson is a certifiable douche. No, really. He is an actual bag of used douche.

Pato, it's loading fine for me.

Re: Jack "Douchenut" Thompson writes an open letter to the ESA.

Awesome, awesome, awesome.

So several different games have been made as per Jack's retarded instructions, but now he's calling his proposal a satire, and refusing to pay the $10,000 to charity. (And yes, I know that at least one of those games up there is a mod, but his proposal doesn't state otherwise.) So, what does Penny Arcade do? Call it attention-hounding if you want, but they just made the donation themselves, in Jack Thompson's name. Just, so, awesome.

Anyone else notice how he used the wrong url?  He didn't have the dash...

Re: Jack "Douchenut" Thompson writes an open letter to the ESA.

I just spent twenty minutes explaining the whole brou-haha to my wife. She fell asleep towards the end -- literally -- but woke up and said Jack Thompson was an idiot. I'd call that pretty definitive.

Re: Jack "Douchenut" Thompson writes an open letter to the ESA.

lol, my wife has the exact same reaction whenever I talk about JT Douchenut.  Honest to god, it helps her fall asleep at night, and she wakes up (in the morning) and tells me he's an idiot, or a flaming smurftard, or some such other fun descriptor, and then off she goes to class/work.

Re: Jack "Douchenut" Thompson writes an open letter to the ESA.

It's the peril of being a gamer married to an understanding but non-gaming woman. Mine happily nods -- and smiles and frowns at the right times -- but doesn't like to play anything except Super Mario Bros. Although her old-school gaming knowledge did help her correctly identify the Donkey Kong theme song during a husbands-versus-wives Trivial Pursuit (DVD Edition) bash the other night. Cogsarnit. Even more embarrassingly, she got it on an All Play after none of us guys could name it. Grrr.

My wife actually enjoys gaming, although she's more into games like Snowboard Kids, TetriSphere, etc.  When we were first dating, I introduced her to UT(99).  Within a week, she was dominating me.

Lately, she's been pining for the fjo... Medal of Honor: Allied Assault.

Not for "Medal of Honor: Norwegian Assault" on the 360?

I pine for that.  Actually, she might, too, being Norwegian and all.

When's Jack's next public appearance? I'll fly there to make faces at him.

I thought I'd provide a link to this, a fascinating article on some of the new fecal matter he's digging himself into

I read that as,"make feces at him," initially. Then this happened...

I think you and I could finally put our differences aside and celebrate in unison with song and dance, as all gamers around the world rejoice at the removal of one more smack-tard.
