In the comments of this post, BeckoningChasm points us to Spamusement, a webcomic that takes the titles of email spam and turns them into amusing cartoons. We’ve all seen emails with stupid titles like “It’s cheating, but it works!“, or “Your Life Ins. Company PRAYS you will NEVER SEE this“
Brilliant stuff. A few of my favorites so far:
Women change your life
Personalized Letters from Santa
Amazing Software Types While You Talk
And the best for last:
Silent Hill 2 Plot Analysis
A long-form analysis on one of the greatest horror games ever made.

It's not a good movie, but it was made with good intentions and if you look closely you can find a few interesting ideas.
Shamus Plays WOW
Ever wondered what's in all those quest boxes you've never bothered to read? Get ready: They're more insane than you might expect.

Quakecon Keynote 2013 Annotated
An interesting but technically dense talk about gaming technology. I translate it for the non-coders.
It’s frequently quite hard to breathe after reading some of Steven’s work, my lungs are just exhausted from laughing so hard.
It’s also fun to contribute to the forums, as it makes one actively check spam for possibilities…
Thanks for the link, very funny stuff. I should mention that I started reading your blog due to the DM of the Rings comic, which I highly enjoy.
