Now I understand despotliz's icons

[fivemack]

I've just spent an hour and a half watching Zero Punctuation. Yay, fast sarcky talking with silly iconic animations and a suffusion of yellow!

'with all the subtlety and self-respect of a retarded mammoth in a Nine Inch Nails T-shirt'

'Super Paper Mario would have to release flesh-eating beetles into my house before I started seriously marking it down'

'in which story and game-play are kept on either side of a wrought-iron fence made of tigers'

Not that I actually have either a console or a Windows box, so the reviews are useless to determine what to waste my money on - but since Yahtzee Croshaw knows that his watchers are watching him more for pure gaming-culture-based entertainment, and is aiming at an audience who's played many things and is aware of popular opinion on everything anyway, this is not a problem.

So will you now understand when ceb and I say, "Pufferfish!" at each other?

Oh, and will you be at the pub this evening?
