    Well, la-dee-da, you with your fancy-pants ASCII. In my day, we had Hieroglyphics, and we liked it just fine! You and your slashdot.org, all I need is a good old-fashioned browser and I can troll on noodle-lion-arm-river-ovenmitt-bird-rock.org just fine!

    It will be clear, once you find out just WHO Tod was, and why he was slashed.

  10. Re:Does this mean that on Family Guy Video Game in the Works · · Score: 1
