so hardcore

I love LAN parties, and consider myself a pretty hardcore gamer. I've played Diablo II Ironman styles, without bathroom breaks and consuming can after can of Pepsi. But after seeing this I'm not so sure anymore. You think you're hardcore? Check it out, fool. I just feel sorry for the guys below if he has to take a piss. I mean, how would that work? Maybe they kept him away from any liquid refreshment to prevent such disasters. Thanks to dave for sending this my way.

Out of a horrible hyperlink possessed by the devil I came across this photo. It was taken at Mr. Bowie's birthday bash sometime last year, and as much as I like Billy Corgan, it is one scary fucking lineup. I was disturbed to see Robert Smith without all his white Cure-era makeup. Lou Reed looks terrible (had it, lost it) and David Bowie is like some twisted sideshow clown.

Can you hear me, Major Tom?

Wait till Billy opens his mouth AKA the portal to hell and the most agonizing ball blasting noise comes forth from his gaping hole and blows David Bowie back into the Goblin filled labyrinth.

What is this place?
Tales of a Scorched Earth is a weblog devoted to the review of video games and game culture, but easily integrates other forms of consumable media. Here you will find opinions on games that you could probably do without, but are going to read anyway. Updated at least once a week, but more if I'm feeling particularly inspired.
