Why You Never Ask the Designers For a Favor

Posted by samzenpus on from the no-reward dept.

    Why did you post this link to a bunch of stolen content?

    The original source is 27bslash6.com, which is David Thorne's website. Which is awesome.

    Option 3:
    Make the whole thing up (or generous parts) to tell a funny little story, in a similar vein as his other, oh... 50 or so tales, and watch the outrage and moral anguish fly.
