Burping, Tetris, Avatars

Burping, Tetris, Avatars photo

I'll admit it. I enjoy my Avatar and think they're pretty darn cool, but I know that not many people agree with me across the board. Some people think they're pointless, but they just don't know the joy of dressing them up in fancy clothing and making them look around in circles.

And what about their musical abilities? Don't those make them useful? What musical abilities, you ask. Why their burping the Tetris song musical abilities. Gallvin Allmond put together the video so we could all enjoy it and then ponder how much time one man can actually have on his hands.

Uh...

Kind of a waste of a front page post in my opinion. I think you've made you're quota for the week.

This was posted in the blogs earlier today, and from a Dtoid member nonetheless.

@ IronPikeman

God forbid someone posts something silly and light-hearted late on a Sunday night when absolutely nothing is happening. You seem like the kind of guy who'd complain about a cblog meme when nothing's going on too.

@ Magnalon

Half left is the same person as Galvin Allmond.

@Necros
That's what I was saying; it was posted by him (his gamertag bio pic is the same as the videos).

Play some games instead of screwing around with the avatars! I mean avatars are just supposed to identify who people are not play around with them. I mean can you imagine people in Destructoid fucking around with their avatars?

@Necros: I could've sworn I felt a small pain when you wrote that... By the way, How long have you been waiting to say that?
