Companion Cube tells me it is very happy about this.
dustandechoes91 @ Oct 18th 2007 12:16AM
This was a triumph. Im making a note of your success.
Silver R. Wolfe @ Oct 18th 2007 12:23AM
YOU MESSED IT UP! D:

Should be
This was a triumph. I'm making a note here, huge success
Sorry about the correction but when you hear the ending enough....
Moffka @ Oct 18th 2007 12:21AM
Oh shi- They're on to us.
Rules 1 and 2!
Dio @ Oct 18th 2007 12:54AM
Not to mention that that site is also NSFW.
Blast Processing Megadrive @ Oct 18th 2007 1:55AM
I've found that this certain site is NSFH - Not Safe For Humanity. And perhaps also NSFS - Not Safe For Sanity.
Nerds With Attitude @ Oct 18th 2007 3:49AM
Not to mention Not Safe For Football.
And Rule 1 is "ZOMG NONE!!!1". No elitism here, your honour.
Psaakyrn @ Oct 18th 2007 12:33AM
Seriously, if you want it to be weighted, can't you just pur somehting inside the resultant cube before gluing it up, like a wooden block?
Also, since Joystiq mentioned it.... Rule 34 on Companion Cube and Big Daddy should take effect sometime 3 days ago...
Rubang B (NDF - Heart) @ Oct 18th 2007 1:14AM
Big Daddy's already covered. NSFW. NSFLife.
Seriously, nobody click this ever.

Psaakyrn @ Oct 18th 2007 1:36AM
I know Big Daddy's covered (Come on, it's been like, 2+ months? That's like an eternity in internet time). But I was refering to Big Daddy + WCC.
Rubang B (NDF - Heart) @ Oct 18th 2007 1:50AM
Does the aforementioned rule even apply to combos? If so, I want companion cube with Ziggy from Quantum Leap.

In response to Rubang B saying something about a combo:
WHEN I WAS
Dio @ Oct 18th 2007 12:52AM
Sweet. Just don't throw it into the lava ;_;
fredrik @ Oct 18th 2007 1:06AM
why you do this....
comanderlink @ Oct 18th 2007 1:26AM
The link goes to the /po/ board in 4chan. Don't worry, it's safe. They're actually quite friendly there.
(Runs away for breaking rules 1 and 2)
why not the LS2/LS7? @ Oct 18th 2007 2:31AM
Does it speak?
Blast Processing Megadrive @ Oct 18th 2007 3:19AM
Mine does.
Bucket @ Oct 18th 2007 2:34AM
Pay no mind to Rules 1 and 2. It was made up by SA rejects, one step above new***s, who don't know when to go away. And they only watched Fight Club to ogle Brad Pitt's sixpack.
Jordan @ Oct 18th 2007 3:52AM
joystiq better buy a dog and curtains. anonymous is onto you.

HACKERS ON STEROIDS
jopojelly @ Oct 18th 2007 5:34AM
Can someone please kick these 4chan people back in their socially decadent hole? Last time I checked blogs were 5 Castes above 4chan in the Internet society, and Joysitq even has a bit of respect within the blog community. Associating with such "people" can lead to lose of respect/integrity, Joystiq.
Psaakyrn @ Oct 18th 2007 6:56AM
Last I checked pride is a deadly sin as well.
WiNG @ Oct 18th 2007 7:52AM
I heard if you say 4chan out loud a baby dies, is this true? Anyone got a baby they could test it on?
Psaakyrn @ Oct 18th 2007 9:08AM
You do realise that the chosen one would be random and thus, impossibly to determine with your test.
Now, getting a thousand monkeys with a thousand hacked typewriters (so that all the buttons would type "4chan"), and get them banging long enough until all babies in the world are accounted for, and you've a proper way to determine.

Every time Microsoft exec Jeff Bell speaks in front of a large group, an Xbox 360 gets three red lights.
Sihylm @ Oct 18th 2007 11:31AM
4chan?
Moar liek 4ailchan amirite?
Also yeh it's a great papercraft.
Psaakyrn @ Oct 18th 2007 11:35AM
So they failed by making a great papercraft?
Kevin Archibald @ Oct 18th 2007 12:47PM
i get the cube - what are the other bits around the cube in the papercraft?
exit stencil @ Oct 18th 2007 1:46PM
Rule 34... Weighted Companion Cube... ha.
(feigned disinterest)
Sam @ Oct 21st 2007 12:56AM
Still having trouble putting the edges on the cube...
its a nice project.
on another note:
WHAT 4chan invaded joystiq?? are they gonna blow up another van?!
