In honor of the Pokemon: HG/SS release

Today's is a Pokemon post! (Yes, yes, I know it really should have been yesterday, but yesterday was Pi Day, and you have to pick your battles. Remember: if you make eye contact, it's a challenge.)

This is how I always pictured it.
For those of you who played the original games (Yellow, Blue, Red, et cetera), there's a webcomic just for you! And for those of you who didn't play the original games, I've been assured that Super Effective is actually still pretty much accurate, and manages to give you all the story and wtfs of gameplay with none of the actual gameplay.

But what about the Pokemon fans, you ask? Well, they are diverse. I can tell -- I'm actually a huge Pokemon fan. They range from TCG fans to handheld fans to character fans. The first two are pretty self-explanitory; character fans like cosplaying the characters. However....
Some costumes just weren't meant to be.
Then, of course, there are the more "realistic" costumes, like this NSFW one. For some reason, when I see this, I hear a husky voice in my mind that says, "Hey, baby. I heard you like me?" Of course, everyone holds a special place in their hearts for their favorite Pokemon, occasionally even going so far as to name them and get emotionally attached to the collections of code and pixels:

In this one Vaporeon says, "Do not want.. Do I have to? Really? Aw man..." I feel sorry for it.

Happy Pi Day~

In honor of Pi Day, here is the song that started a revolution:

If by "revolution" you mean "a whole bunch of students who learned a ridiculous number of digits of Pi from bad child actors in hideous shirts and a singing robot, while two creepy, expressionless older men stood watching them from the shadows."
...
You're right. "Revolution" is much catchier, with the added bonus of being less likely to give you nightmares.


In other, not-pi-related news, this charming young man was originally displayed in the local post office window, but somehow escaped and made his presence known around campus.
Need it enlarged? No problem! :D

Well? Do you want it enlarged? And what exactly is "it"? Isn't he a little young to be concerned with this type of thing? And, most importantly - why, pray tell, is he holding his hand out like that?

I don't think I want to know. Is there someone we should call about this?
