WhoGAS: If this had been an anonymous internet group of friends, all you people hating this would be lauding it's hilarity.

I never got into Wil on STTNG or the fandom bus, but give the guy and his crew some credit. This was funny stuff. You can hate someone for no reason but still admit when they do something right; it's called maturity.

The jealous hate on here against him is annoying.


Hm.

I found it pretty lame and unoriginal and without the celebrity it's just a bunch of anonymous guys spoofing an already tired and discredited meme, nobody here would likely have found it anything of note to comment on and it almost certainly wouldn't have made it onto the main page at fark.

Given that it's WW though, it acquires a stratospheric level sublime humor appreciated by people here who would normally find claims of some guys peeing in another guy's beer to be mundanely sophomoric at best. In other words, it's pretty limp and unfunny stuff until adorned with the presence of WW at which point it becomes comedy gold of the highest order.

I think you've got it a bit backwards.

Wil is the awesome!

halfof33: mandingueiro: everybody sucks this guy's dick.

You know, I am sure that the whiny biatches complaining about the posts in this farking thread outnumber the posts saying that they liked TFA.

We get it, whiny biatches, now STFU, ya boring bunch of flaming douchebags.

Mandinguero is just pissy 'cause he sucked his dick and Wil never returned his calls.
Face it, you were lame. Now STFU and let those of us with a sense of humor enjoy it.

That is god damn fantastic.

+1 for the surprise Adam Savage!

I don't know who all of those people are, but they made me laugh. So thanks Wil, Adam, and internet strangers.

Perpetual adolescence.

That's really funny.

Okay. I RTFL and it was effing great. This thread cracked me up too.

But then you, you loathable cockroach you, post that clown sweater...and I lose my shiat.
That sweater is never not funny to me.

You're all too easily entertained.

So?

Keep your expectations tiny and you'll go through life without being so whiny.

Jackpot777: NuclearWinter: hockeychick: The_Original_Roxtar: WHO IS THIS!?!?!?!?!

That would be this chick:



I present to you Ms. Karen Gillan.

Ok, my previous decision to not watch the latest season of Doctor Who was wrong. I shall need to correct this post haste...

Especially this bit.



This ain't your dad's PBS Doctor Who.

To be fair, your dad's Dr. Who was in 20-minute episodes and the Doctor was actually interesting enough that throwing sparkly shiat and eye candy at the viewers every 30 seconds was unnecessary.

//Now get off my goddamned lawn.

does the fact that I knew all the people and references in the meme make me a nerd???


/OMFG!!!! Say it ain't so.
//much being able to reply like this...

20 years later and I still want him.

That was better than sliced bread. :)

And I loved the surprise Adam Savage, especially since I didn't know what w00tstock was.

enjoyed

I don't get the WW hate. What, did his limo run over your puppy or something? Sheesh, so you didn't get the joke, or did but didn't think it was funny. No need to trash the guy. Or the people who liked the gag.

/when did Fark get overrun by asshats?
//got nuthin

stevejovi: when did Fark get overrun by asshats?

February 1999.

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!! XD

That was awesome!!!


/Needs AWESOME tag made if it weren't for WIL! :D

Count me among those who don't know what meme they're referencing but even so, that was funny stuff.


/Gettin' old

Oh goodness, the Fark art & letters connoisseurs are having a fit. Try relaxing your sphincter muscles and see this for what it is, a gag, a joke, nothing high minded, just simple fun. Man, you intellectual morons must be suffering from some mighty constipation today. Maybe a little laughter will loosen your bowels and you'll learn to relax.

DrSandyBeech: Oh goodness, the Fark art & letters connoisseurs are having a fit.

I'm sure it's all right. Wil couldn't possibly hear any of their kvetching over the sound of his own awesomeness.

bemis23: Sarah Palin Bukkake Party: This dude just isn't funny. How's it feel to know you peaked in 1986, Wil?

Ahh yes, your incredibly witty and funny name just compels all of us to recognize your inherent position as arbiter of all that is and is not funny.

/facepalm

ahem...



/Very funny
//Adam's input at the end was the topping on the cake.

StRalphTheLiar: I'm reposting this from another thread since that one was dead by the time I posted. Hopefully someone will catch it this time.

It is high time that everybody start rekognizing Wil for what he is: just another actor playing a part. Self-described geeks have placed him on the guilded podium of geekdom, from whence he can do no wrong in their eyes. He could lie, cheat, steal, I'm sure they'd even forgive him of grand theft auto. He is one of the untouchable (because of one show he was on at the age of fifteen) titans of the comic con scene. The crowds' hysterics are just so over the top, it's like if you let a mouse loose in the girls' room. And the boys are no better - just go home and play with your toy soldiers, nerds. Sometimes you people leave me speechless, and I just can't understand you with any part of me, even the deep core of my soul. Is anybody willing to stand by me on this one?

Approved.

Is this so controversial of a statement? To me, it's run-of-the-mill common sense. Some of the most frightening images to me are those pictures of teenagers beyond hysterics at a Beatles or an Elvis show. This is no different. Are your lives really that empty that anything a certain celebrity says or does is beyond reproach? It's not that I just like different things and I'm lashing out at you for that. Hell, I like Breaking Bad, but that doesn't mean I'm gonna hold Brian Cranston or Vince Gilligan up on this golden pedestal as some sort of infallible king. Really astonishing behavior. Absolutely seconded, Ralph.

What's a w00tstock? Even after going to the site, I'm a little lost. Is it just a traveling variety show for nerds/geeks/whathaveyou?

/ the link is pretty funny though

I agree with your stance on fanboys and fangirls, but really, there's fanboyism and then there's just finding something or someone funny.

I'm just gonna leave these here:

Nah, I was familiar with the dry erase board chick. It's just that this one wasn't original, funny or clever is all. But because it's WW, Fark collectively glues its pants to its abdomen pretending it's funny.

Nah. You just don't have a sense of humor.

Also, for you farkers that don't realize the love Fark has for Wheaton, check out the FArQ

I personally laughed at most of the pictures.

Some one didn't get the joke. But what do you expect from a humorless prick?

2/10

Uh no I actually thought that this blew more chunks than a bulimic girl. And the fact that Wheaton's career peaked with Stand By Me is a fair and objective assesment.

I just like your Fark Handle. I'm considering adding you to my favorites so I can continue to laugh at it.

Boudyro:

Well we can see that, but don't be so hard on yourself.

siromega: Not knowing what w00tstock was, seeing Adam Savage at the end was a surprise and cool.

No-one expects the Savage imposition.

Nah. My sense of humor is intact and nominal. It just wasn't more than very mildly humorous and it rates mention here solely because WW is involved.

The adulation and fawning and general knob-slobbering over this is due solely to the celebrity attached. If it were 4 guys nobody knew then you're saying this would have landed on the Fark front page and garnered nearly 250 comments? Yeah, me neither.

Listen, I also get why People magazine, the National Inquirer and TMZ make money. My lack of fan-dom for those doesn't indicate a failing on my part there either.

Some folks get all gooey over actors...I tend to look at them as people who play pretend for a living is all.

Everyone's sense of humor is different. And that's okay.

That being said...

I LOL'd.
