Tad Williams' Message Board

Hello, babies. Welcome to Earth. It's hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It's round and wet and crowded. At the outside, babies, you've got about a hundred years here. There's only one rule that I know of, babies -- 'God damn it, you've got to be kind.'
-    Kurt Vonnegut, 1922-2007

Welcome to the message board for tadwilliams.com. All comments are welcome, whether kudos or brickbats. However, please bear in mind that Tad would like this to be a friendly, civil message board, at least in the relations between users. We reserve the right to remove postings, or even ban postings, from anyone who crosses the boundary of reasonable taste. Basically, you can argue vigorously with someone, but watch your language, okay? We have a lot of young readers as well as grown-ups, so please show them some respect.

But the main requirement here is: have fun.

Re: Link of the Day - Reloaded

I've posted this before somewhere, but if you're a programmer (any kind) This place will have you laughing out loud every once in a while. (And the more you know of programming, the funnier it'll be.)

Re: Link of the Day - Reloaded

Ha. Found the old thread again.

I cannot believe it. I finally have nothing to do and there is nothing on TV. Opportunity to waste your time with useless links again. This is my latest collection. It might be that some of the links I even collected from this board. If so, sorry, cannot remember who posted it then.

Star Wars as explained by a 3-year old: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBM854BTGL0&

Largest cave in the world in Vietnam. http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/2011/ … ins-text/1

Re: Link of the Day - Reloaded

Sweet-o!  A place where spamming links is legal!

Alright, here we go:

For you oldtimers from the Halcyon days, Andrew Zimmern Ate My Balls: http://www.andrewzimmernatemyballs.com/

Play Super Mario ... but with Mega Man or Samus or Simon Belmont?!?!  It's like the childhood fantasy I never knew I had: http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/534416

It's like Starcraft but with all of those pesky graphics reduced to attractive little pixels: http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/536743

Speaking of Nedroid (whose 200 Bad Comics were posted by Jadelin), here's another one of his fine comic projects, this time a joint effort with his pal Emmy C.: http://binsybaby.livejournal.com/597341.html

What's that you say?  You want a Super Mario/Grand Theft Auto mash-up that's actually more faithful to the source material than the movie?  Have at you!: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kk9oa_PiXAk

Finally, for any "fans" of super-awful movie "The Room," here's a remixed dubstep of the movie's greatest scenes.  They're tearing me apart, Lisa: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMH8vNhz9QI
