  • falloutsyndrome, on 10/12/2007, -23/+18"Sombody set us up the bomb." I have many great memories of playing with friends in counter strike as terrorist, and seeing my name set us up the bomb while planting. Quite pleasant memories if I do say so myself. I love Calvin and Hobbes.
    • Agret, on 10/12/2007, -9/+19That's great except it's from Zero Wing not CS. Although you're probably referring to the AMXX event script stuff, those are silly. Should be able to work out how to turn em off in your server config.
    • wiggimt, on 10/12/2007, -8/+6I loved having amx mod on my server.

      slap slap slap slap slap
    • Chinzon, on 10/12/2007, -2/+29It's "somebody set up us the bomb", anyway...
  • Smitty32, on 10/12/2007, -7/+76I didn't even read the article yet but "you had me at Calvin and Hobbes".
    • Takteek, on 10/12/2007, -54/+1Is it just me or does this comic not look official? And shouldn't it say Watterson at the bottom?
    • Smitty32, on 10/12/2007, -31/+7I 100% agree, He was a genius and is missed. Please come out of retirement.

      Credit due to Bill Watterson please.
    • wrongonce, on 10/12/2007, -4/+76You had me at "!DOCTYPE html"
  • apollyon, on 10/12/2007, -3/+39Wow, now there's two things I love which I never thought would meet, but meet they did and the result is... well... thats pretty cool. ;-)
  • TradaPIB, on 10/12/2007, -37/+4Clever.But c'mon.
  • rudezombie, on 10/12/2007, -42/+6Wow, is it 1998 already?
  • Ozzy73, on 10/12/2007, -31/+6Mirror of the image:

  • MoeWasHere, on 10/12/2007, -16/+5Anyone have the original comic?
    • kuribo, on 10/12/2007, -4/+36I think it's a conglomeration of multiple comics, all stitched together.
  • wily6, on 10/12/2007, -15/+1"you had me at Hello"
  • biff198, on 10/12/2007, -37/+10So they mixed one of my all-time favorite things from when I was young (Calvin and Hobbes) with one of my all-time favorite things right now (All your base)...

    How could I NOT digg this?
    • daybreaker, on 10/12/2007, -5/+76"All your base" is one of your all-time favorite things right now? I guess I shouldnt be making fun of you considering you apparently just came out of a 7 year long coma.
    • Urusai, on 10/12/2007, -17/+5FELINE DISRESPECT FROM BEHIND!
    • biff198, on 10/12/2007, -17/+5Well, I guess that the term "all-time" does imply that it ends after a while. My bad...

      sheesh...
    • kurtu5, on 10/12/2007, -3/+11No the "now" part indicates that. "all time" indicates all of time. So you are confusing me and several thousand other far....diggers.
  • astrosmash, on 10/12/2007, -18/+6Hilarious!

    Without a doubt, the greatest thing ever posted to digg.
    • usbserial, on 10/12/2007, -8/+4I enjoy you sarcasm.
    • astrosmash, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5I wasn't being sarcastic. If I wanted to say something sarcastic, I'd say something like:

      ♪ ♬ Digg is a *really* great website frequented by many *thoughtful* and *interesting* people. ♬
      • Lenoxus, on 06/15/2008, -0/+0All sarcasm should be sung. That would make conversation a lot easier.
  • resplence, on 10/12/2007, -6/+14Awesome, it's Calvin of Hobbes fame.
    • OsakaWilson, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7I thought I was the only one who noticed that.
  • thrallie, on 10/12/2007, -50/+7http://www.cnw.com/~josh/DCP02273.JPG

    ITS AN ASIAN!!

    (hurry open directory, wont last long!)

    http://www.cnw.com/~josh/Crazy%20Girl.jpg
  • joshlewis, on 10/12/2007, -6/+5So many of my friends want the All Your Base jokes to die, but I can't seem to stop laughing at them. Almost every time a new one comes up, I love it. To me, AYB will never die.

    For great justice indeed.

    When's the musical coming out? ;-)
  • Bleeblaow, on 10/12/2007, -15/+6***** this.
  • invinciblechunk, on 10/12/2007, -20/+3What the hell, is it 2001?

    I can forgive reposts of old news, in case people didn't catch it the first time around, but who the hell didn't catch AYB?
  • sw96, on 10/12/2007, -13/+3Stop making memes and this kind of ***** mainstream, it just isn't as funny and it cheapens any good content coming down the pipes from 4chun and other sources.
  • gormenghast, on 10/12/2007, -9/+5man it's worth it for the C+H nostalgia. wish i had more of those irl.
  • rejoined, on 10/12/2007, -44/+17Stupid ***** up news on Digg's front page. And I don't give a ***** if I get dugg down because of saying this, because you know it for real, it's true.

    Stupid assholes, you owe it to yourselves to read and peruse worthwhile newsworthy news on Digg's front page..and not news which get dugg up by fanatic mob mentality..supported by comments begging to get dugg, and not dugg up because the comment actually contributed something worthwhile.

    Save Digg! just not it needs saving. It's doing pretty good otherwise. But once people used to come here for news for their time's worth. News and articles worth commenting on, and fostering an intellectual discussion. Not news which get dugg up and where lamers comment like *In Russia..* and gets dugg 300 diggs or more.

    It happened when Digg became too popular for its own good (though that was the general idea from the beginning), and now it has become the myspace of wannabe nerds.
    • gormenghast, on 10/12/2007, -23/+7dugg you up. you are at +1 digg now!!
    • unknamed, on 10/12/2007, -7/+13For real.

      Everybody just go away so he can have "the old Digg" back.
    • CatalystGhost, on 10/12/2007, -3/+19Yep, I'm sure the ONE ***** picture is going to interrupt the entire system, and because of this one picture, now you can't find ANY news on digg.

      Admittedly, yes, I'm not a huge fan of stuff like this being posted on digg. But even more than that, I hate assholes like you who irrationally flip out on it. It's funny. It started my day off with a laugh, and god knows I need it. And then you come along and just ruin that. Nice going, jackass.
    • twertyto, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5The only constant is change people. Deal with it.

      BTW "Dealing with it" is not crying like a little bitch in the comments section.
    • LegendOfLink, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Sounds like somebody "set up YOU the bomb."

      I'd start calling in the zigs, for great justice.
    • cob05, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3@rejoined:
      All your news are belong to us.

      P.S. "newsworthy news" ??? Isn't news, by definition... Aw, forget it.
    • Szandor, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2That is one angry digger.
  • DeathfireD, on 10/12/2007, -12/+3"i'm in your base killing your n00ds"

    I agree why is this on the front page?
  • abadbronc, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1A lot of porn bookmarks there bud.
  • homsar, on 10/12/2007, -2/+15Calvin + Hobbes for the win. That was the greatest comic of all time. So many happy days reading my big books of Calvin and Hobbes. Spaceman Spiff kicks ass, I don't care who you are.
    • dmitriyvoz, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0The author has mentioned very much a vital topic today. It seems to me that the problematics of this clause enables to reflect and draw conclusions. You can as to look sites in Russian which mention this theme: http://www.rolid.org http://www.se-ua.com
  • minox, on 10/12/2007, -10/+8I hate "meme." Please stop using it.
  • Livewired, on 10/12/2007, -13/+2I don't think this is Watterson's work. Notice the "Towona" signature at the end? Plus, it just doesn't feel like Watterson's work.
  • ChicagoDS, on 10/12/2007, -4/+5we get signal. dugg.
  • Kwipper, on 10/12/2007, -10/+4This is so ***** old. How in the hell did this get on the front page of Digg? This has been around since the AYBABTY fad. Buried as Lame.
  • exscind, on 10/12/2007, -8/+1Here's one most people have NOT seen (League of Extraordinary Gentlemen):
    http://www.screamcast.net/forumfun/allyourbase.gif
  • kryogenix, on 10/12/2007, -12/+8Buried as lame, because you know, it's lame.
  • JamesKeenan, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1"Somebody set up us the bomb" is about as misquoted as "No, I am your father."

    Every time I hear someone say start that line with "Luke..." I want to ask if they've ever actually seen the movie. Then I realise it's only me that's part of the over-enthusiastic, nostalgic elitists that want to it to be perfect. So I shut up.
  • FatShady, on 10/12/2007, -16/+2"Lame" isn't accurate enough for this.

    We need a "this is so ***** gay" category for burying.

    Needless to say, burried.
    • aquadoctorbob, on 10/12/2007, -4/+8As long as we can do the same to dimwits like you.
  • dustysquareback, on 10/12/2007, -8/+1YEEEESSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • DeskFlyer, on 10/12/2007, -7/+1A vote for me is a vote for the return of Calvin and Hobbes.
  • jerbaker, on 10/12/2007, -17/+2Unless every single frame is a direct quote from something I'm not aware of, the author is clearly not an English speaker which makes the reading a bit rough.
  • Eleo, on 10/12/2007, -17/+8Why is dumb ***** like this on the front page, like it's important, informative, or enlightening? It belongs on perhaps 4chan's /b/, and even that's a stretch. It's just photoshopped Calvin and Hobbes with the stalest of internet memes.

    Digg is finished.
    • lordnibbla, on 10/12/2007, -10/+4STFU Calvin and Hobbes is the shizzle and always will be.
      I have all their books :D I grew up on the stuff.
    • Eleo, on 10/12/2007, -7/+7Yeah? So did I. That doesn't make this ***** being on the front page any less stupid.
    • Junkyarddawg, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6Yeah, seriously; the frontpage is reserved for Wii articles, gossip about the iPhone, and Microsoft-bashing! FFS people, get with the program here!
    • Eleo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1You are right. I am obviously on the wrong site these days.
  • origclubsoda, on 10/12/2007, -7/+1This is by far the best thing I saw on the internet this week.
    • AndrewDB, on 01/10/2008, -0/+6You must not of used the internet very much, this is older than the damn hills.
  • thatsiebguy, on 10/12/2007, -6/+4This is what clogs the tubes....
  • Etheo, on 10/12/2007, -3/+3I digg anything with the title Calvin and Hobbes in it. All your base? That's just the icing on the cake
  • SSCrow, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1God,
    Zero Wing is a Difficult game.
  • remotecontempt, on 10/12/2007, -7/+4Buried as lame because AYB was never funny in the first place.

    Not even C&H can make it funny.
  • sinebubble, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9Close up that directory, dude.

    http://www.cnw.com/~josh/post-12-06238-joshandscott.jpg
  • MrSkrilla, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8Yeah man, there are pictures like this:
    http://www.cnw.com/~josh/106989290_l.jpg + http://www.cnw.com/~josh/106990663_l.jpg
    which i don't think those girls want everyone to see.... Are those girls even 18? wtf
    • pennvneff, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1That chick on the left looks retarded
  • optimo75, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4single greatest thing on Digg in the last 3 months.
    • AndrewDB, on 01/10/2008, -4/+3Single oldest repost on digg in 3 months :|
  • foshaug, on 10/12/2007, -4/+3http://www.cnw.com/~josh/post-12-06170-craigandjosh.jpg
  • Radar5, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2i'm a big fan of calvin and hobbes and find this to be mildly entertaining :)

    on note of the open server and this image link, i think someone is going to go over his school's bandwidth allocation :D
  • benitojuarez, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2I love calvin and hobbes, but i think its time all your base died a lonely death. i mean seriously, its older than probably 30% if not more of the people that use digg.
    • AndrewDB, on 01/10/2008, -1/+1Zero Wing: Release date(s) 1989 (Arcade)

      I'd say it's older than 40%..
    • splato, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Well I was born in 1995, but since I don't remember a time before the internet that means I also don't remember a time before the All Your Base phenomena.
    • betobeto, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1@splato: I began doing web work in 1995. Thank you for making me feel like an old fart.
  • Alchemeron, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2OH MY DEAR GOD
  • ArnoldLayne, on 10/12/2007, -12/+0I never found Calvin and Hobbes funny. It seems like bland sitcom humor to me.
    • insomniacpyro, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10WTF? C&H, Sitcom? Wow, that's just... I'm going to leave before my brain tries to eat itself alive.
  • Taorluath, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1It's a meme, Mario!
  • Junkyarddawg, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10It's not a meme until it annoys you.
    • remotecontempt, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Which means that AYB was a meme about 3 minutes after it was first posted.
  • AndrewDB, on 01/10/2008, -2/+4http://www.cnw.com/~josh/old_pic_of_me.jpg

    o.O


    And for anyone that cares, another photo of the Jessica..
