emegency (broken) filler post

Well, I had a nice follow up for yesterday’s post, but WordPress ate my post. Enjoy something tidal sent me instead.

(For people who have had their comments eaten, don’t feel bad. This is the second 2,000 word I lost this summer… after losing like two the previous six years. Methinks WP 2.6 has been a regression.)

  1. Awesomesauce.

    Why is it that whenever I post, I trigger your spam protection?

  2. That deluxe punishment bag intrigues me.

  3. I still like the girl’s ponderment over whether to eat a puppy or a generic (ham?) shank.

  4. I notice that the dog has a bit mark on it’s butt in that last picture XD

  5. I would suggest writing your posts in a separate text editor first to avoid such mishaps in the future.

    /Erik <- wise from experience

  6. I’ve seen this picture before. It’s odd how for ’emergency filler’ posts you immediately pull the “Trap” card.

  7. lol, I missed that bit mark before thats funny. I love the professors,
    Yes, and ??

  8. … am I the ONLY one who isn’t broken enough to automatically assume that a post with ‘broken’ in it means there may be a trap involved, as there was here?

  9. … I’m not seeing a picture, just an ‘x’. Which, judging by Haess’ reply, might be a good thing. Thank you work filters!

    It’s just humour involving traps. Nothing fancy. Funny how everyone else here failed their “Detect Trap” rolls, though. Either that, or they assume everything that dresses female IS female.

    Of course, I’m usually the one who packs a bolter pistol and a power-sword to go with a bolter, and make sure someone with a heavy autocannon’s nearby…

  11. Haess: Ah, okay. Might have to check it out at home though.

    And a power weapon? Psh, anyone with a bit of sense would bring a power fist (or its equivalent) instead. Striking at initiative is nice and all, but the REAL targets on the table are usually the stuff that a power weapon can’t touch, like Monstrous Creatures (high toughness) or *gasp* vehicles (armor values)!

  12. I don’t get near those targets – that’s why I keep people with krak launchers, heavy meltas, or vehicle based weapons nearby. Or a Dreadnought if there are Marines on the table.

    I really ought to get an Ackbar icon.

  13. I want a deluxe punishment bag for Christmas. Finally… a socially acceptable way to unleash my wrath!

  14. I still like the girl’s ponderment over whether to eat a puppy or a generic (ham?) shank.
    I do believe you should read the text a tiny bit more.

  15. I like the way that ‘training to speak words’ appears to involve the lyrics of Queen songs!

  16. Terminators. What does he mean by `originally`? What type of `Professor` is this guy, did he do something? I fail my Trap throws because I just charge in and hope my AC or Resistance does something. Of course when I wake up on the floor naked after getting poured too much sake by ambigiously gendered twins I can say: `Worst case scenario: I don`t have to worry about children`. Damn, been poured too much sake by not-so-ambiguously gendered guys.

  17. Regardless, that pic is just too funny. xD

  18. >>… am I the ONLY one who isn’t broken enough to automatically assume that a post with ‘broken’ in it means there may be a trap involved, as there was here?

    I was expecting gender bending more than a trap to be perfectly honest… Does that make me more broken or less?

  19. AHHHHHH-HAAAAAA!

    Yeah, im still angry over lost posts.

  20. Pretty hilarious.
    I love how she/he is learing to read with Queen lyrics.

  21. …Is that a fang on the string at his/her waist?

  22. I’ve seen this picture before. It’s odd how for ‘emergency filler’ posts you immediately pull the “Trap” card.

    Well, now you know how to defeat him should you ever play against him in Yu-Gi-Oh.

    I’d agree with Calaveth here in that writing in a separate word processor would be a good idea as well, but it all depends on what you’re comfortable with. I know that doing that helps me focus my thoughts a little better. A little. :P

  23. Nah, I’m very fast with the WP editor, and losing 4 posts total out of 1,400 isn’t bad. I get the feeling that if I used Word, I’d lose even more posts. And, of course, nothing of value was lost…

    Though I like making these posts because Haess is guaranteed to make at least two assertions that he’s not broken in a post tagged moe:broken. Take that to the bank. And I think the more you try to assert how not broken you are, the more broken you really are. Denial is always the first symptom.

    (And Myssa, your Warhammer figure for Haess needs a pink skirt.)

  24. EPIC WIN

    broken professor is awesome

  25. Those eyes! They’re the hottest eyes I’ve ever seen! I wonder what the kid will be like when he/she grows up… must be pretty broken. Professor Charles M. Church is my new hero.

  26. Have you tried Windows Live Writer? I’m pretty sure it has WP support. But then again you’re on a mac, huh? Looks like Fusion works with it pretty well.

  27. That comic is awesome. (Who is Riyo and why have I not heard his/her name before?) I don’t know if I can top that… but I sure as hell am going to try.

  28. dammit Jason, i should have known!! I didnt suspect anything until the last panel…

  29. my first thought looking at this was “police girl?”. then again i’m several months due on my yearly hellsing injection.

  30. Does being raised by wild pigs count as broken? If so, it reinforces Jason’s “once broken, always broken”.

  31. Word!? No, you want a text editor, not a word processor. Use notepad or notepad++ or emacs or something like that. Formatting won’t translate anyways, and just gives you the possibility of crashes.

  32. WP: Save early. Save often. Too many times I’ve clicked a link while doing research, only to have it load in my WP screen instead of it’s own. Why don’t browsers have a “Lock Screen” feature so you can’t accidently hit “Back” and lose a post — another bugaboo.

  33. There is no way there is a penis on that!

  34. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me 23 times… I forgot my point.

  35. Break me and mold me
    To be broken once more
    thanks jason C:

  36. >> Use notepad or notepad++ or emacs or something like that.

    emacs? Uuugh, there’s how to kill any inclination to write blog posts.

  37. ubu: Opera avoids that problem by taking the genius step of caching any form data entered when the user navigates away from the page, so as long as you hit Back before it’s bumped out of the cache due to being too old, it’ll still be there. I have no idea why no other browsers have copied this yet.

  38. those are called bedroom eyes, they’re supposed to turn you on.

    that’s why. right?

    Not broken? Did I say that? I said I wasn’t as broken as you obviously were, or most of the readers, since I still can detect traps where the rest of you deny that there’s a penis there. ;)

    Hell with it, give me a mailing address. I’ll send you a Trap Recognition Field Guide I found somewhere.

  40. Actually those look a little like the “I’m going to kill you in your sleep and laugh about it” Higurashi eyes to me.

  41. we need to have a guess what’s in the deluxe punishment bag game.

    I for one think it’s the main of a wrathful beholder that the professor helped to slay in his youth. It must stay in the bag at all time as it is so horrifying even through layers of cloth, direct contact would surly kill most men.

  42. I’m with the professor on this one.

  43. @kaze: main what of a beholder? Main eye?

  44. Professor = WIN

  45. “since I still can detect traps where the rest of you deny that there’s a penis there. ;)”
    is a self-defense mechanism called denial, and since i do not believe there is a penis, therefore is not a trap… nope, not there… i dont belive it…

  46. We REALLY need to hold a discussion over what’s in the deluxe punishment bag for punishment. I would kill to have a professor and assistant (?) like that.

  47. ahh too bad i didn’t get a YTAMR from the pic.

    Hope you guys enjoyed it, I was lucky to pick this out of some random post in 4chan

  48. The smell must be horrid if both punisher and punishie are crying. Plus the punishie is tied up so that “_” might not get away.

    The resulting human looks ready for Umineko No Naku Koro Ni. Just needs some sort of golden wing motiff on the dress somewhere.

  49. Those eyes! They’re the hottest eyes I’ve ever seen! I wonder what the kid will be like when he/she grows up…

    Actually, I look at the comic, and think of a beautiful electric butterfly…

    Hiratsuka Raichou! http://danbooru.donmai.us/post.....n_kazoku_n

  50. yes I meant main eye. the big one in the center that usually has some sort of horrifying spell cause the beholder just doesn’t have enough of those as is.

  51. Quickie: Why can’t I stop reading this?

  52. @kaze: The main eye of D&D beholders simply cancels all magic in its field of view (basically, it projects an antimagic cone).

  53. ah there you go. i always played a monk any ways, the old magic rules were a pain to keep track of.

  54. Jason, I’d kill for a source.

  55. The picture is from the author’s Pixiv site, but you’ll need a Pixiv account to see anything but reduced size images there.

    Also, please show some appreciation for the translator.

  56. I’m with Tarage, is there more where this came from? ’cause something about that is just hilarious.

  57. My guess? The deluxe punishment bag could either be

    *stones, placed on the head in such a way wherein if our trap-in-training moves his head the bag falls on his leg and hurts.
    *scorpions (not placed ON the trap but perhaps both scaring our TinT by their presence and training his sophistication by denoting such creatures as bad things)
    *goatse. That’s pretty much how I reacted.

    And… d’awwwww.

  58. I’ll only double-post due to the fact that it’s been a while since it’s been posted in. *breathes in…*

    Why. WHY GOD WHY. Is this labeled Moé:Bedroom Eyes? If that’s paired with Moé:Broken or Moé:Trap, you know to RUN.

    –OH WAIT. IT IS!
