The internet shall soon achieve its purpose
« on: December 01, 2012, 08:50:25 am »

Upon discovery of this:
http://hamletbook.com
I have concluded that the internet will have achieved its purpose, as soon as this is finished. Just thought y'all might like to know.

And even better? They're going to be doing a play!

PS
For those of you with a fear of links, it's a Kickstarter acquiring money for a choose-your-own-adventure Hamlet. It's written by Ryan North (of Dinosaur Comics) and will contain pictures from just about anyone who has ever drawn on the internet.

Besides, the internet is a self achieving purpose. It has all the power a series of interconnected tubs can carry.

Knowing Belgium, everyone will vote for themselves out of mistrust for anyone else, and some kind of weird direct democracy coalition will need to be formed from 11 million or so individuals.

The internet's purpose is tubgirl, as it was in the '90s, is now and will be forever.

@Footjob, you can microwave most grains I've tried pretty easily through the microwave, even if they aren't packaged for it.

I was about to point out that you said tubs, but I was beaten to it :<

How would interconnected tubs be useful? Tubes can transport stuff, tubs just sit there.
Well you see, the internet travels across each tub because they're all interconnected in series.

I feel like this thread was made for something other than off-topic gibbering about the internet.

I also kind of feel like making Ophelia a stronger and more interesting character will make me even sadder when everyone treats her awful and she goes insane and kills herself.  Although I guess I can always do the story differently!

The right way.

The Steven Seagal way.  No more pages and pages of Hamlet wangsting about.  The Gonzago players will actually be hitmen.

It's great how we got a potential to derail every thread because of a typo.

Tubs make sense, each tub is a computer that you fill with the bubbly data and cat bath toys of the internet plumbing network.
