Interest Check: Secret Phallus

[bombardier]

I'm assuming everyone will post a report in this thread when they receive their gifts. I'm planning to, at least.

Of course
That also means I'm waiting for a certain Gangbunch Fora-exclusive game review now

I'm not finished it yet! I keep dieing after exploring and not saving for a while but I am compelled to return and try again! I should burn through more this weekend.

[CopyCat]

Take your time and enjoy it

Copycat did you buy me a game because if so I am going to review the shit out of it.

I hope the post above this one doesn't bring you to tears. At least there's
also a Aquaria demo available.

[bebarce]

I've repackaged the gift, and I will be shipping it out tomorrow morning. Gobble Gobble!

[Andrew]

I AM YOUR SECRET TURKEY

STOP

SURPRISE

STOP

I AM ALMOST FINISHED COMPILING YOUR GIFT AND IT SHALL BE MAILED SOME TIME WITHIN THE MONTH

STOP

I HAVE THIS ADDRESS FOR YOU WHICH IS IN AUSTRALIA BUT I ALSO KNOW THAT YOU ARE IN GERMANY OR SOMETHING SO I WONDER WHAT TO DO HERE PLEASE ADVISE

STOP

[tynic]

IT'S OK I AM IN AUSTRALIA NOW SO YOU CAN GO AHEAD WITH THAT ONE

AWESOME






Ps thanks for ruining the surprise jeez. Why don't you just burn my house down or something.

[Andrew]

God I'm sorry. I just didn't know whether to send the package care of the cloned frozen brain of Adolf Hitler or the cloned frozen brain of Steve Irwin. I thought avoiding one of those potential catastrophe's warranted breaking the seal of anonymity.

[tynic]

I'm pretty sure no-one would want to keep Steve Irwin's brain, but I think there's some kind of national monument built up around his hat.



PS In case you couldn't tell, I wasn't actually angry about you removing the secrecy from the turkey. That was a joke.

PPS I am still pissed about you burning my house down.

[Andrew]

I'm mostly just angry that I made the word "catastrophe" up there possessive rather than pluralized.

[Michael]

The surprise is the whole point of this exchange. I think in protest you should just set fire to Andrew's package, unopened, when it arrives.

[Andrew]

The surprise is that you're stupid and should shut up like fifty times.

I had it on good authority that Nic was going to spend the next several decades wearing lederhosen and boiling sausages.

The "good authority" however might have been the little gnome in my skull that likes to piss in the crevices of my cerebellum.

[tynic]

I'm going back to Germany in February. At the moment I'm only wearing training lederhosen, I have to work up to the proper version.

[Andrew]

I hope they are fitted with standard safety features like air bags and crumple zones in case of a critical failure.

[tynic]

GIS result for 'safety lederhosen'.



I think it has seperate pockets for your testicles.

[Andrew]

OH THAT IS JUST SO WRONG

[Michael]

And I received it this morning. Shit yeah, bebarce!

The box knocked on my door and I was mystified at the postal process.

My cat was also curious.

Look at that fine package design! A real, live, hand turkey, in its natural habitat.

The border sticker identifies the contents as "BOOK". THANKS FOR NOT USING SPOILERS, CUSTOMS. But what book would Bebarce send me?! Let's open and find out!

Whaaaaaaaaaaat!

I am blown away! What a unique surprise Let's open it and see how it was laid out!

Bebarce predicts who I would dedicate the strips to with 100% accuracy:


Yes, in the corners of the pages you can see good ol' dancing Moe! Bebarce flips the script by making this manuscript into a flipbook.

Another part of B's gift was revealing how my archive system is a little bungled, which I need to go mend after this post. (All thanks to tynic's guest strip! Thanks for screwing up everything I've ever done, tynic!) He cleverly masks a gap in the strips by presenting #85 in THREE DEE:

And the 100th strip is followed up with some classy bonus material:



And then after I had finished photographing everything, I remembered the CD. In typical troubleshootee fashion, I saved reading the readme till last - on the disc he had already provided tasteful product shots that I could have uploaded!

Props beebar, I may not believe in your country's weird turkey god, but His love certainly touched my heart through your hand(turkey). Thank you!

[tynic]

( Thanks for screwing up everything I've ever done, tynic!)

This is the sole reason for my existence.


Hey that's an awesome present bebarce made for some dude! Go bebarce!

[Andrew]

Bebarce I am afraid you may be in violation of United States copyright law. As a responsible citizen of this People's Republic of the United States of America, I feel it is my duty to inform the authorities. I am sorry.

[Sonic]

What an awful gift. Truly horrendous. Offensive, even. Especially to the ocular regions. For shame, Bebarce. For. Shame.

That turned out really well, Bebarce. My hat is in the stratosphere.

[EarthwormAdam]

Dancing Moe saves Christmas!

And I got piz-aid so my package should be on its way shortly.

[Benjamin]

Mine is still forthcoming as soon as I finish my job transition.

[tynic]

Even though I know there's no possible way my gift will arrive at *someone's* house before next week at the earliest, I'm still impatient to hear that it got there.

HURRY UP POSTAL SERVICES OF VARIOUS COUNTRIES

[Jan]

Moe-ly shit, Bebarce! That's pretty awesome.

[Benjamin]

I just saw Beebars gift. Fan-fuckingtastic Beebars! PS PM ME with the cost of that. (I'm curious)

[Alyce]

ha HA!! I knew about it all along!

It is certainly an awesmoe gift.

[bebarce]

Hey i'm glad you got it so soon after I sent it, and i'm doubly glad that you like it!

Did the 3d version actually work? I was never able to properly test it myself.
