Slashdot Mirror

MartyJG writes "Freg Gallagher certainly has a talent for announcing things with a maximum of words - the summary of his latest rant on Megatokyo however, is that his webcomic is about to get a dead-tree hardcopy version produced by some nice people at Studio Ironcat. The first volume is going to be 120 pages, with additional off-line-only content. The announcement also includes a new webserver on order, and new merchandise soon to be available with the help of ThinkGeek. All the background on the announcement is in the current MT Piro rant and their very official-looking Press Release."
Nobody except Rob and about 3 other faggotty, childish, virginal geeks gives a rats fucking ass about anime. LAME!
Sorry, I don't mean this to come off as a flame, and I do love his artistic skills, but Gallagher cannot tell a story to save his life. Sure, he has his "Dead Piro" days, which, contrary to others, I love since it gives us a chance to see he scribbles. That is not my issue, though. For the time that the comic has been up (which has been something like over a year), Piro and Largo have managed to get stuck in Japan, get an apartment, and get a job. THAT IS IT! Please, if you are reading this Fred, dude, PICK UP THE PACE A LITTLE. It wouldn't be such an issue if the background story didn't have so much potential. Sorry, but I have to pass on the first book. Lots of pretty pictures, but no substance....
Ahh sweet sweet Megatokyo... the BESTEST COMIC ONLINE! HA! My god I crack me up. MT has become somewhat of an internet counterculture icon in its few years in publication. I don't know a single member of our small counterculture revolution that can STAND Piro's whiny DOOD THIS IS MY TOKYO, GET USED TO IT stance on his little webcomic. Yeah yeah yeah HIS webcomic. Big deal. He's got a fucking webcomic and a smattering of "talent" this makes him one of the most beloved icons in the "webcomics scene" as it were?
Now, remember, this is the same scene that elevated the 8BT guy, a person who is PROFITING on ANTOTHER COMPANY'S IP, to godhood.
Back in the early days of webcomicing, there was some integrity and actual wit and originality. Now everything's degraded to crap like User Friendly, Megatokyo and 8BT. I don't understand WHY this utter shit is so BELOVED when there are real, good comics out there that are actually DESERVING of high praise and love from the community (ie: Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal, Pentasmal and Anime Moments in History), usually due to the FUNNY that they contain. Aw fuck it, you retards are going to mod me into oblivion and right now, baby the whisky is doing the talking, not me. If you've a problem with it, I'll KILL YOU AT OTACON (if you don't get THAT then you're similarly as worthless as the dork who does Megatokyo. No fucking wonder "Largo" left in disgust and rants long windedly at how gay "Piro" is and how god damned preachy and utterly faggy that MT has become homph glomph like an octopus at the boner buffet).
In closing, Die Megatokyo die, you are not the pinnacle of webcomics like you think you are.
Why is it when I hit ^R that ZSH calls me a cocksucker?
The longest line for any event were the Megatokyo Panels. The comic is seriously popular among anime fanboys who feel the same as Piro. Our art is superior! We can't get chix! Meanwhile all the people who weren't socially inept (i.e. the ones who didn't pay almost 2000$ for one megatokyo drawing) were at the www.dubthis.net party. party or wait in line to see a guy who can draw, party, guy who can draw, party... The only people who still like Megatokyo are fanboys. It's popular, because there are a lot of fanboys.
The GeekNights podcast is going strong. Listen!
How about fuck off you ass licking man-bitch. We dont go there, we complain when the fucking gay shit anime crap stories comes to Slashdot. Fuck you pig.
What are you, Piro's online defense avatar? Get a life pigfuck. If that pussy bitch piro or any of those sexless fag anime artists had a set of fucking nuts they would come down here and try to put out this fire. Read the thread, no one likes that shit. Its fucking gay, pre-pubescent fag-like comics no one fucking likes. At least no one with a credit card with a limit higher than $250. The people who like that shit dont have any cash to buy it. Adults who have a sex life dont like it. And its inappropriate for kids whose parents can underwrite it. Face it, its a marketless pathetic thing. This shit doesnt even hold a candle to Peanuts.
Offtopic? this is dead ontopic. This is hard to swallow, but this is the ultimate end to anime, this is the kind of shit you fucking slashdot anime fuckers like. Dont deny it you fucks.
I hope you dont have to fuck that cunt who comes up with that shit comic. I almost was caught between utter digust from its mediocrity and an urge to laugh at it as the most pathetic shit I have ever seen. You have a lot of nuts posting a link to that shit, you fucking loser. That is such fucking crap. And you know it. I've from time to time chuckled at the snuday strips, here and there. But that DIE comic is such crap, such fucking crap, its not funny, moving. Nothing. I'll admit that this pile of shit is better than MegayFagLoserTokyo, but its still a sack of chunky brown vaginal discharge. Do you fucking queerbaits even fuck? Or does she was to cut your penis off? Fucking loon tune. Lord Dragonbitch.
1) Webcomics do suck. They are not peer reviewed, the are not edited, they are the loser stream of an unaccomplished writer. Just because a site gets traffics doesn't mean something is good. If you posted War and Peace online, and the site only got 1 hit a day, does that mean Tolstoy is a crap writer? No. FUCK NO. So your and your illiterate cronies can all flock to this toilet of crap literature, and think that in numbers you can change the definition of what is good or bad in this world. Fuck you. About being an AC, I have to post AC, you fuck-nut. The loser editors bash anyone who is contrary to pre-pubescent zit case loser theology, thus preventing most real commentary from ever seeing an above zero moderation totals. Opinionated poorly informed fascist control freaks like yourself like to sweep critiques under the carpet.
2) Mega Tokyo is force fed. Banner ads. You couldn't just herd people in because its good. No no no. You have to spray the fucking community to get on the radar screen. No one has ever gone to work, demanded a coworker go read mega Tokyo. It would be risking embarrassment, its not funny and it doesn't spread by word of mouth.
3) Good, buy the book you fucking snarky lunatic. I love books without real publishers and editors - they are the most consistent form of literature out there - pure crap!. And banner happy? Bullshit, there is MT shit banner here every fucking day, and Taco the fag makes it impossible to block since good and bad images come from image.slashdot.org. Fucking dick.
4) MT sucks, this isn't news. The book wont sell well and that's all she wrote. Taco the Jubei loser fuck like crap-anime, and about 10 readers like it. But that's what slash-shit is, a totalitarian regime whose community is subject to the whims of the few editors and other boot licking sheeple trying to adhere to "geek/nerd" culture to justify their sexless existence.
MT has shit art, shit storyline and is not funny. Its crap. I even wrote to the writers at one point. They actually replied to my flame. I loved flaming them and getting a response to a hotmail account . They are insecure, they suck, and none of them have fucked a bitch who would get more than a 3 on hot-or-not.
Death to you, you fucking loon tune. DEATH.
