HarJIT

I never understood why this was a big deal.
A King from Memphis is seen among the living many years after his death?  Been there.  Done that.

Good job and thanks.  I'm a little disappointed with the results, however, which is no reflection on you, HarJIT..  The result is a little...blander...that I might have wished just thinking about it.

No capes!
 
 

I hope you haven't put my stuff on your second tier or lower.

Cat-n't. Too much Dogma to get around.

Some of it yes, for graphics. But complaints come in for more then just that. people complain about every aspect that they think should be different. 
Research how long a weapon actually takes to re-load, to slow. Study the jamming rates, they occur to often. (both are examples of complaints from the same game)
Once people are conditioned to expect a lie, they reject the truth. 
But people complain that unrealistic things are the more real all the time elsewhere, back when the Nanny was on the air they use to get fan mail saying the guy playing the father/boss/love interest (who is from England, and apparently a member of the Aristocracy) did not have a proper accent, and should take lessons from the guy playing the butler (he is from Arkansas). There are similar complaints about Tracer's accent (guess what country the voice actress is from). 

In Family Feud, the objective is not to choose the answer that is the most logical, but rather to guess what answers the people polled have selected. Facts don't matter--what matters is whether the poll agrees with you. This makes it a bit like predicting the stock market, since you are trying to predict what the other actors (investors) are doing.

I got XFCE4 to play nice with other applications. 

Highlight of tonight's Family Feud:
Grant: Name something you might find in ancient Greece.
Contestant: Ruins
It was the top answer with 27, which struck me as really stupid because the buildings wouldn't be ruined yet in ancient Greece.

 
The proper way to state a genus and species is to capitalize the first word, the genus, which is the broader category; use a lower case for the species, which is a narrower, more specific identifier; and to italicize both.  Homo sapiens, Homo habilis, Pan paniscus, Gorilla gorilla (yes, that's really the scientific name for gorillas), Tenebrio molitor, Escheria coli.

For those using my interface fixes, you may upgrade to my latest revision, which uses a different host for images, as a matter of caution.  Again, there is probably no need to worry unduely here, it is unlikely to be an actual problem (as I explained above), but I'm following what I feel to be good procedure.

Something within your specialty that is done badly in a movie or comic is always more annoying than other slips. I have the same experience myself. When someone uses language in a pretentious way in a story I read and does it badly, it sends me straight up a wall.
(*grumble grumble* Bloody C.J. Cherryh's Morgaine who couldn't conjugate 'thou' and 'thee' properly and just used 'thee' all the time. Maybe Cherryh thought Morgaine sounded cool, but to me she sounded like frigging Jar-Jar Binks.)

That is to me at least, the best part of today's strip.

Occasionally you will see a Colonel Appliance behaving eccentrically.  But anything truly bizarre from appliances is usually not tolerated until they reach flag officer status.
Watch out for any appliances from Admiral or General Electric.

WHAT! You have a birthday and don't tell anyone until afterward? What kind of person are you! You're supposed to tell us these things in a timely manner!
But since you didn't...
 
....
 
Happy berated birthday.
 
ok I'll go hide now

I was born on March 14th. Possibly because pi is needed in a lot of hacks.

No, it happened. Therefore the chance of that incidence is unity.  The expected odds and what happens are not the same.  Once you collapse the wave function, the expected odds have no bearing on reality.

Where do you think the stories about girls kissing toads who transformed into princes came from?

Just like the "Camera Phones" incident, the internet has dramatically changed society in an unexpected way -- everybody is so innundated with baseless rumors that no one pronouncement (from a known liar no less) is going to be believed except perhaps by a few fanatics (who wear out their own believability at an accelerated rate in the information age).
I wonder what the tipping point would be for something like that? It would take more than just a few videos and "experts".
Still, the evidence can only build up, from incident to incident.

Firefighters are bad ass. They are the closest thing to real life superheroes I know about. I simply cannot sufficiently express the admiration I feel for people with that amount of commitment and raw courage.
