- Lutremi, on 04/15/2008, -1/+4Jesus freaking Christ epic fail.
  - robdiggity, on 04/16/2008, -0/+1Yeah! I'm down wid your OPP!
    
    (and to compound that fail, I even pronounce that "ahp")
  - AlphaR75, on 04/16/2008, -2/+1Is it still a fail if it's clearly intended to be one? For example, if a clown trips on another clown's outstretched leg and lands in a custard pie, is that a fail? Or simply a competently executed maneuver?
    - Dragular, on 04/16/2008, -0/+1Attempting to save the fail is fail.
    - robdiggity, on 04/16/2008, -0/+1"...competently executed maneuver..."

INDOAZZ, on 04/15/2008, -1/+3War of the masses, the outcome, disastrous
Many of the victim family save they ashes
A million names on walls engraved in plaques
Those who went back, received penalties for the axe
Another heart is torn as close ones mourn
Those who stray, niggaz get slayed on the song
- DarkSamus, on 04/16/2008, -1/+2*penalties for their acts

ElAssoWipo, on 04/16/2008, -3/+2"Our question is: Will the site have a kung-fu element? (We're willing to bet it will.) We imagine a battle-chess style game, possibly featuring katana-wielding Afro-Samurais."

CHINA: http://maps.google.ca/maps?hl=en&tab=wl
JAPAN:http://maps.google.ca/maps?hl=en&tab=wl

CHINA =/= JAPAN.
- ElAssoWipo, on 04/16/2008, -0/+1Damn you google maps. That's a giant fail.
- BCKids1208, on 04/16/2008, -0/+1"Following a disastrous military engagement with Tang China and Silla, Japan underwent widespread reforms. One of the most important was that of the Taika Reform, issued by Prince Naka no Ōe (Emperor Tenji) in 646 AD. This edict introduced Chinese cultural practices and administrative techniques throughout the Japanese aristocracy and bureaucracy" from the "Samurai" entry of Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samurai
  - ElAssoWipo, on 04/16/2008, -0/+1And how does that make kung-fu any less chinese and samurais and katanas any less japanese?
WaxenPith, on 04/16/2008, -1/+2"I'm the best mayne.... I did it."

geoken, on 04/16/2008, -1/+1So basically it's Yahoo Chess except with hip-hop playing in the background and random kung-fu inspired graphics and text?

sofaKing812, on 04/16/2008, -0/+1The game of chess, is like a swordfight
You must think first, before you move
Toad style is immensely strong, and immune to nearly any weapon
When it's properly used, it's almost invincible

Anyone know what movie the Wu took this from?
