Our house burned down. After digging it out of the ash and 2 hours of scrubbing later... by Salemkylarin gaming

Closest thing they got is Mount Rainier, and it doesn't have a door... though it is overdue for destroying shit.

Touche, McDonald's. Some of these actually look really good. by DontHateMasticatein food

[–]rainx5 1 point2 points ago

What would really fit 'Murica is Japan McDonald's Monster Mac. (Basically a Double Big Mac.) It was a limited time promotion there in the mid-90's... I think it was floated in a few other countries too.

What's your iron-clad laughter-inducing MST3K scene? by primeentelechyin MST3K

[–]rainx5 2 points3 points ago

"And now we shall laugh wait and see" -shimmy- "HOW ARE YA?!" The witch's hand gestures and Servo's riff are just gold together!

And

The pool/fat scene in Overdrawn.

What do you think is the worst movie MST3k ever used? by GIVEMEREPLAYin MST3K

[–]rainx5 2 points3 points ago

While I would call Fu Manchu the champ here, I have to throw Hobgoblins in with this lot... it was more "ambitiously bad" than Deathstalker. (As a side note: Manos, Starfighters, and Fu Manchu had redeeming riffing, but even the riffing couldn't save Hamlet.)

The resemblance is uncanny... by fortomorrowediein startrek

It's a fitting mash-up; "War is good for business", after all.

How Apple Sidesteps Billions in Global Taxes: With a handful of employees in a small office in Reno, Nevada, Apple has done something central to its corporate strategy: it has avoided millions of dollars in taxes in California and 20 other states. by davidreiss666in business

[–]rainx5 5 points6 points ago

Microsoft has done this same thing with a Windows division office in Nevada for friggin ever. Washington state keeps trying to field ways to extract those taxes from MS, but they've always backed down in the name of keeping MS HQ in-state.

Dat font.

I've always liked that "NASA" label better than the old school logo.

Seattle's voted correctly... all surrounding areas' did not.

Totally! Very Princess Mononoke-y... but it looks like the Shishi Gami has a power-sharing thing going on here. :)

Tribute to the greatest MST3K (in my opinion) ever made. by drudruanewin MST3K

Yeah Mike, I bet you were way into the Thompson Twins, right, huh? You were Wang Chunging all over the place, huh?huh?

PAX Prime 2012 registration is open! [Direct link to purchase][x-post from r/gaming] by TheJackalManin PAX

[–]rainx5 1 point2 points ago*

I can confirm this (I'm just another random, but still...) The official site keeps putting the link up and taking it back down.

Edit: It was the correct link but they're changing vendors... OP link is no longer it. (From the official site: "For those of you who have successfully registered, we'll shoot you an email next week to confirm your registration.")

PAX Prime 2012 registration is open![direct link to purchase tickets] by TheJackalManin gaming

[–]rainx5 0 points1 point ago*

People might be wary of a direct purchasing link without alternative confirmation from the official site... Just sayin'.

Edit: Just saw some recent updates on the official site... the OP link is legit. (They just keep taking the official site's link to it down to relieve traffic.)

Edit Edit: CrapCrapCrap! they've ditched the registration vendor... anyone that has registered at this link should be transferred to the new vendor automatically (So they say: "For those of you who have successfully registered, we'll shoot you an email next week to confirm your registration.")

And when you find them, you're finally going to feel at home.

I didn't truly get that feeling of 'being home' in a big group until my first PAX in '06. I didn't expect that going into it; I only wanted to see the Minibosses... but once I was there, it was like nothing else. I can't really describe it; there was an easy flow to meeting new people or just talking to strangers. I never feel so comfortable in a crowd as I do at PAX (Prime... never been to East.)

MST3K/Firefly/Star Wars mashup T-Shirt (4/23/12 only, at RiptApparel) by rainx5in MST3K

[–]rainx5[S] 2 points3 points ago

I linked to the image to keep the thumbnail accurate for those who have it switched on; purchasing is at the root of the domain.

I don't usually post about items for sale, but I personally went "shut up and take my money" when I saw it and it's one-day-only... I figured the community would like to know about it too. :)

No Burj Khalifa? I thought something like this would come from a religiously genocidal mind, but this board appears to be targeting Asia.
