Twilight one, definitely. Only one that made me laugh.
ChuckBartowski @ Oct 31st 2009 10:11PM
the twilight one was funny, but i swore to myself months ago that i would never encourage anything remotely related to twilight.
Special Agent Steve @ Oct 31st 2009 10:14PM
Some pretty good ones this week.
the_pop @ Oct 31st 2009 10:16PM
They all sucked
Special Agent Steve @ Oct 31st 2009 11:25PM
Are you my evil twin brother? I would like to meet you.
Kattleox @ Nov 1st 2009 1:15AM
Sooomebody didn't pay Persoooonaaaa!
Darth Bradwart, Dark Lord of the Sith @ Oct 31st 2009 10:23PM
I went with Digital Unrest on principle. The DSi XL is pretty much that.
Hyams @ Oct 31st 2009 10:28PM
Also, no XKCD?
http://www.xkcd.com/654/
Or Cyanide and Happiness?
http://www.explosm.net/comics/1843/
Nytemare457 @ Oct 31st 2009 10:35PM
Yeah I was hoping XKCD would get on there, I thought that was a pretty good one.
ChuckBartowski @ Oct 31st 2009 10:43PM
yeah i mentioned that last week but no dice...
Markez @ Oct 31st 2009 10:44PM
I prefer both of those to any of the options this week. Haven't seen Cyanide and Happiness ever before, but really dug it.
MowDownJoe @ Nov 1st 2009 9:17AM
Yeah, I don't see how Babicide is winning. I would've voted for XCKD if it showed up there.
aristokrat @ Nov 1st 2009 10:50PM
I also thought XKCD had the funniest of any of the Halloween comics I see this week, with the Doc Brown joke.
Ghen @ Nov 2nd 2009 9:05AM
Yeah, this is a crying shame. I'd rather pick between 20 webcomics every week if the only other option means missing out on funny stuff that the blogger felt didn't deserve to be here.
[ArchiGamer] [SIMULCAST ON CRAZY PEOPLE'S FILLINGS] @ Oct 31st 2009 10:31PM
Twilight for me. It was the only one that made me laugh.
Other than that, meh on the rest
Premature ejaculation man @ Oct 31st 2009 10:34PM
Rather than blaming the comics for the billionth time in a row this week, I'm going to suggest that maybe I don't have a sense of humour.
D:
Markez @ Oct 31st 2009 10:46PM
Nah it's just that webcomics generally aren't funny and carry a low level of humor anyways.
Darth Bradwart, Dark Lord of the Sith @ Nov 1st 2009 12:04AM
It's probably because they use simple, 'in your face' humor rather than the subtle kind. Don't blame yourself-blame the comics.
Nytemare457 @ Oct 31st 2009 10:35PM
Hiimdaisy's comics are always outstanding!
Markusdragon @ Nov 1st 2009 11:46AM
And always about games I've never played and therefore don't understand a single word D:
Ghen @ Nov 2nd 2009 9:07AM
Seriously, I can't understand any of it. I sorta got the "I like swords" part because that's almost universal to games... but the rest is way over my head. Never played Persona 4 and never played MGS.
Hiro @ Oct 31st 2009 10:38PM
There was quite a few good ones this week. Virtual Shackles, Digital Unrest, and Penny Arcade were all very good, but I had to go with Of Noobs and Men, just because that guy was so badass.
Mr Khan @ Oct 31st 2009 10:38PM
Brawl in the Family. I'm surprised, though. Hiimdaisy is usually good, though i've never played any of the games documented (MGS4 and Persona 4), but this one just didn't ring at all
Rein [Prime Minister of the city-state of New Bjork] @ Oct 31st 2009 10:42PM
Hiimdaisy is too awesome. Seriously, the Yukiko-uigi part had me in tears.
I really want to play P4 again now. :(
Zexion_VI @ Oct 31st 2009 10:47PM
The P4 one is amazing. lol, looks like it will be like 5 comics. Go Himdaisy
Discotheque @ Oct 31st 2009 10:53PM
I think Gabe Miller's Zombie Comic series on Double Fine right now easily destroys all of these.
But with that said I'll give it to Virtual Shackles. So true. I'm gonna go to the Dentist and get permanent fangs.
Discotheque @ Oct 31st 2009 10:54PM
Also hiimdaisy is easily the worst one on every poll in this series.
Darth Bradwart, Dark Lord of the Sith @ Oct 31st 2009 11:34PM
I think they appeal to a niche group. I haven't played any of the Persona titles, so I didn't get it either.
Sly @ Oct 31st 2009 11:41PM
hiimdaisy's MGS comics were awesome for me since i've played MGS. i don't get the persona ones at all though since i never played it.
Discotheque @ Nov 1st 2009 3:37PM
I played all the MGS games too but I still couldn't sit through the Hiimdaisy comics, just too long and badly drawn. Also the jokes weren't too funny.
Anonymouse @ Oct 31st 2009 11:32PM
PA for me. They made a good point.
Avatar @ Nov 1st 2009 4:44PM
Evil demon babies from hell is a good point? They're only in purgatory, not hell, which is where unbaptized babies go, not evil ones.
Darth Bradwart, Dark Lord of the Sith @ Oct 31st 2009 11:40PM
You know, it seems like when Dipswitch is funny, it doesn't make it on the list, but it does when the comic is stupid...
Probably my backward sense of humor.
SpyderTaco (PSN: Ar4chNova89) @ Nov 1st 2009 1:01AM
What is the point of commenting on two separate occasions rather than just replying to your initial thought?
Is it the attention you crave?
Darth Bradwart, Dark Lord of the Sith @ Nov 1st 2009 1:04AM
No, it was the lack of an edit button. Also, they were two unrelated thoughts.
And my Inbox is shot. :\
SpyderTaco (PSN: Ar4chNova89) @ Nov 1st 2009 1:26AM
That's like someone saying "I wish I wasn't so fat" while waiting in line at McDonalds.
It's not my fault your inbox is a mess.
Stop posting on every freaking topic. Problem solved.
Darth Bradwart, Dark Lord of the Sith @ Nov 1st 2009 1:30AM
You know, I'd love it if I wasn't attacked by people accusing me of posting too much. Have you nothing better to do? Do you see me finding your every post to say "good hell, how many times are you going to post!?"
I'm opinionated. I'm going to post. End of story.

When did 'THE STIQ' become 'LG Presents: THE STIQ'
Darth Bradwart, Dark Lord of the Sith @ Nov 1st 2009 1:34AM
I was going to change it, but now that I know it pisses people off, I'm leaving it.
Ha!
sony boy (6 years til sony man child!) @ Nov 1st 2009 9:06AM
can't you do something better with your life like go outside and play some sports???
i don't comment as much as i use to and my life is pretty good.
oh also, sony and samsung pwn lg.
finnith @ Nov 1st 2009 12:49PM
If you really hate ads that much, just get Adblock Plus for Firefox or Chrome. You shouldn't be bitching about it otherwise.
Darth Bradwart, Dark Lord of the Sith @ Nov 1st 2009 12:50PM
He's commenting on my avatar, not the ads.
sonicspike41 @ Nov 1st 2009 7:34PM
Spyder, why are you personally attacking him? Here, let's prove you don't have it out for Darth Bradwart, let's prove that you really do get annoyed anytime someone posts twice instead of replying to themselves.
You now also have to comment on Brett's posts and Hyam's posts as well. And before you say, "But he posted 3 times, and they didn't," consider that maye the second post was a reply fail. You know... reply fails, the thing that this comment system is most notorious for.
If you don't like seeing him comment, then either use the comment kill filter (you can find it at userscripts.org), ignore his comments, or just don't read the comments.
Fucks sakes people...
finnith @ Nov 2nd 2009 1:24AM
Wow, I suck. Apologies all around.
DubiousCow @ Nov 1st 2009 12:36AM
Haha, these fucking sucked.
DreamingDarklyRobin @ Nov 1st 2009 12:40AM
hiimdaisy one is the best, mainly because I've actually played the game.
Kanjou @ Nov 1st 2009 1:01AM
I don't understand why normally I only find one of the several funny, and this time I can't decide between Virtual Shackles, Nerf Now, Digital Unrest, and Penny Arcade. But Penny Arcade made me laugh out loud, so I guess it gets my vote.
Cyber-Tyrant @ Nov 1st 2009 6:06AM
Nerf Now!
Because after playng Borderlands for just a few days, it's just so easy to show off your gear like that.
Ghen @ Nov 2nd 2009 9:09AM
orly? where's the trade menu? Only way to show off gear is to take a picture or just give it to the other person and hope they give it back.
That being said, Lilith is kinda sexy but I'm scared of any woman with that name. ;)
kenny goo @ Nov 1st 2009 10:05AM
I honestly cannot believe the stupid Penny Arcade Dante's Inferno comic is getting more votes then the Zombie Attack one from Brawl in the Family. I laughed so hard at that. Clever shit.
