Vote for the Pusher Robot
I think this film was made in 2001 -- but somehow, it feels like campaign 2004.

This is based on a hilarious ICQ prank pulled by Something Awful. It's at
http://www.somethingawful.com/articles.php?a=287.
My god, it's like the walls between my bookmarks are breaking down. Will I see posts by Jesse to the SA Forums later today?
OK, that's two references to "the SA forums." Someone please explain the reference to me -- I can't enjoy being mocked if I don't get the joke.
Sigh. Ok, first, you're not being mocked.
Second, SA = Something Awful. The movie was based off an old ICQ prank by Richard "Lowtax" Kyanka, one of the guys that created and runs the site. A lot of the Something Awful material (like Comedy Goldmine and Photoshop Phriday) comes directly from the forum partcipants, called the SA Goons. Hence the PAK CHOOIE UMF.
Third, Goons have been banned from the SA forums for recycling old (like 2001 old) jokes. Banning isn't all that serious, becuase you generally get un-banned after an arbitrary period of time.
Any other questions should be referred to the SA FAQ.
Also, please keep in mind that SA is not for the kids or those prone to getting the vapors.
SomethingAwful.com.
Little Green Footballs has had "do not trust the shover robot" on its title line for years now.
One of these days I should introduce you to B3ta and Fark. Ah, the Internet.
OK, I know Something Awful. Just not well enough to know it by its nickname. My relationship with the site must be somewhat stilted and formal.
Don't be afraid to mock. It's what these threads are for.
Those robots are wussies! They can kiss my shiny metal ass! I need a drink...
Bite your shiny metal ass!
During the upcoming convention they should spike the drinking water with LSD then show this video during the opening ceremony..
all that is missing is a white colored "Liber Robot" appearing at the end to give us hope from the pusher & shover robots 🙂
OT,
public school tries to kick out a student for wearing a T-shirt with "hempstead, NY" on it. yes, it is an ad for 'hemp', you see 🙂

Hit and Run is so banned from the SA forums now!
hahaha that reminds me of when my high school english teacher tried saying how it was inappropriate to wear "those four-two-oh shirts"
I about died of laughter.
All your base are belong to us.
Ha, ha, ha, ha.
Screw the Swift Vets. I want to form a 527 and play that every day during The Daily Show.
