Motivators and Lolerfs (image-heavy)

[Arkenputtyknife]

That's great, Oslecamo! But if you're going to fix what needs fixing, would you mind correcting the spelling of "casualties"?

[TigerHunter]

Can someone fix this up?:

Die horribly or tell everyone I lost to a bunch of marshallow bits...
I don't like the options

using http://www.giantitp.com/comics/erf0021.html panel 5

Yeah, I know that panel has been used before, but it just works.

Edit: Aw crap. And I already closed the file so I'd have to re-do the whole thing to fix it. Just pretend that bun and bunch are synonyms, ok?

He's got himself a suern acent there.

Awesome. Love the edit on the quote.

Your idea was so awesome that I went back in time and had Scientivore do it.


What ever happened to Scientivore, anyway? I miss him.

Something like:

"If we trained [b]our[/] stewardesses like this, airplane hijacks would be a thing of the past."

You should try making them yourself. It's not hard--black rectangle, image, and some text. Position everything just so and you're golden.

This thread has inspired a lolerf request from me.
Picture: Panels from several different strips pieced together into one picture. Specifically: Panel 8 of 128(Gobwin Knob 116), panel 11 of 127(Gobwin Knob 115), Panel 1 of 120(Gobwin Knob 108), Panel 9 of 101(Gobwin Knob 91), and any others that fit the general theme. Then shrink the completed collage to a size that won't stretch a post on these forums too much.
Caption: IT'S OVER NINE THOUSAAAND!!

I suppose it could be done as a motivator too, using the caption as a subcaption and the title of the inspiration thread as the main caption.

It's been a while since I tried my hand at motivators around here. Let's see if I've still got any of the old mojo left.

You've still got it.

[zillion ninjas]

You've still got it.

Hey, thanks. If I find the time, I'll look into your "over 9000!!!" idea. I've done the action-collage thing before - it's a bit like a jigsaw puzzle if the panels are different sizes. And the overall format is a bit trickier than a normal motivator...

But since we haven't gotten any blowups in a long, long time, this might be a good use of the materials we have.

Ah, the kill it with better fire line of thinking; I like it.

I thought about using Xykon's fire and lightning quote from SoD, but couldn't figure out how to fit it into the new medium.

The right Tool for the right job, I always say...

Is that a faux-Harry Potter font in the title? It works very well with the text & theme.

Heh, good catch. Indeed it is. And thank you.

[ChowGuy]

Hmmm, well I haven't tried one of these for a while either but let's see, the Evil Overlord series went over well so how about this?

[Zolem]

lol great job. That is a big error in tactics to leave the enemy alive.

[Stefman]

[ChowGuy]

lol great job.

M'glad you think so ;)

Here's Rule 37:

[BRC]

Whoo, nice job on the seven habits. I got Ideas for a few...

[HamsterOfTheGod]

[leo_neil316]

Okay normally I wouldn't but for the hero one.

It should be 'a' before hero not 'an'.

[HamsterOfTheGod]

Okay normally I wouldn't but for the hero one.

It should be 'a' before hero not 'an'.

First 'an hero' is an Internet meme which refers to a person who commits a senseless suicide.

Second, and to nitipick, the 'should' is simply a usage. There is not hard and fast rule. Though normally 'an' is before words which began with a vovel or an unpronounced 'h', eg 'an hour', usage varies a lot. So for ex, 'an heroic' is getting a lot of usage even in professional and academic circles. And conversely, 'a' is often used for emphasis, or simply by forgetfulness, when speaking, eg 'a atom'.

[Demented]

It's a hard and fast rule. Pronouncing your h's properly, however, is not. :p

[Flame of Anor]

The a/an before "h" has varied throughout the years. Both forms are valid. "A" is generally preferred over "an" in modern US.

[theKOT]

I think the final authority comes from Bonnie Tyler:
"I need a hero"
I mean it's pretty definitive.

QFT.

Although, even in modern US, "an hour later" is rather common in verbal english.

[leo_neil316]

*not from the US*

That's because it's an unpronounced H.

Although if it's a meme thing then it no longer bothers me. 'An Hero' just sounded really really clunky and detracted from the awesome.

No diff between the AE pronunciation of "hour" and "our."
