:jakncoke is my favorite. For those of you who don't know, #1 Seahawks fan jakncoke self-destructed and posted nothing but smilies for every post he wrote after the Bears vanquished his beloved 'Hawks from the playoffs. Evilore banned the smilies but jakncoke posted them from outside GAF. He was subsequently banned until the Super Bowl, and NFL-GAF honored their fallen sea chicken by using :jakncoke or :jnc as the designate for laughter or scorn. jakncoke was reinstated just in time to watch the Packers destroy the hated Steelers in Super Bowl XLV, and the rest was history.
 
"Because there's gotta be a Batman"

Can't fully explain why it appeals to me, I just love the idea of fictional characters breaking the fourth wall with fanon explanations of this or that plot event.

"Safe moist as dudes" and "Cookiecutter motherfuckers".

Also, "Go ly dow".
The first two, especially the second. Makes for a great nonsense insult out of the blue, pseudo-rhymey.

Yeah, she doesn't really read over my shoulder, but I'm hooked up to the TV. So, peripherally apparently her mind saw NetJeff.

"This is NetJeff, dude."

please fill me in

I don't think it was a NeoGAF specific thing.

Kim: Yeah, but here's the thing: I think one of the most important, subtle announcements at the Xbox 360 briefing is that Resident Evil is coming to Xbox 360. Yes, it's from Capcom, who's been a great supporter of us.

GI: But we knew that two years ago.

Kim: What?

GI: Resident Evil. It was shown at TGS two years ago.

Kim: No, but coming to Xbox 360.

GI: Yeah. It was at the press event.

Kim: I don't think so.

GI: I'm positive. I was there.

Kim: Really?

GI: It was shown at both press conferences.

Kim: That RE5 was coming to...?

GI: Yep.

Kim: I'm going to have to confirm that. That was supposed to be the big announcement. Anyway, my point there though is that every major Japanese publisher is supporting the Xbox 360. ...
 
I enjoyed the "Tangled" posts in the box office threads. Always made me laugh. I dunno if people still do it though.

And the picture of the guy who is shrugging. It originated on the gaming side (I don't know who he is....is he a developer or a CEO or something)?

EDIT: This guy:

I'm not aware of the origins or reasons behind this photo but whenever I see it it makes me laugh.
 
I can't remember who it was but the guy who did the whole "stopped reading there" thing while highlighting the last sentence of the OP he was attempting to rip was pretty great.
 
I don't follow football much but isn't this guy just a little undersized for an offensive lineman?

From the neck down he reminds me a lot of Donovan McNabb. Maybe someone should explain the meme for the rest of us. It is his perky breasts?
