Run by the local cable station that claimed that "by age 7, 3 out of 5 tweens are already online". Am I the only one incredibly confused by that statement?--<<>> 17:05, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

What is a "tween"? Somebody stuck between a rock and a fat place? MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 17:08, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

UR MUM'S A TWEEN! -OptyC Sucks! CUN17:11, 5 Aug

Well, I don't know about Today, but back in my day, "tween" was a word we used to describe those annoying brats inbetween 10 and 12 that think they're teenagers, but don't realize that the term "teenager" has to do with being old enough to have children, but thanks to Western culture are still considered children because evolution is a lie and you can't prove people used to be infertile until they're age 18. Also, you must be a witch.--<<>> 17:29, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

GI Joe II: Electric Boogaloo, in theatres Friday

Yes, but the GI Joe movie is out on Friday, August 7, and there's only a 3 out of 5 chance that it will suck. I like those odds! Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 19:23, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

3 out of 5? What previews are you watching? -OptyC Sucks! CUN19:27, 5 Aug

I'm basing it entirely on Baroness having the wrong accent, Marlon Wayans, and it's lack of me as Stormshadow. Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc!

I think you misunderstood me. I'm giving it a 4.75 out of 5 that it's gonna suck balls. -OptyC Sucks! CUN19:37, 5 Aug

That's because you're sour on the world, man. Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 19:50, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

That, and because Cobra Commander isn't wearing a mask, and is apparently Dr Who. -OptyC Sucks! CUN19:51, 5 Aug

GI Jew; would it be so terrible? (shrug)

It's the "Rise of Cobra". That's why he's not Cobra Commander Cobra Commander. And he's Dr Who because Dr Who is Cobra Commander. Duh. Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 19:53, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

And the "Booster Suits"? -OptyC Sucks! CUN20:00, 5 Aug

Both of you are wrong. It sucks because the movie has that overly-dramatic special effects secene where a monument is destroyed by Japanese people. And plus, Stormshadow is wearing white. He's EVIL, damnit!--Bad Shroom 20:07, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

It could be worse. It could've been booster seats. Which sounds pretty awesome, actually. Then they could sit at the big boy table! Yay! Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 21:01, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

Destro is Dr Who (which could be why the film is rated A for Awesome). Cobra Commander is...um...the kid from Third Rock from the Sun. Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 21:26, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

Not helping. -OptyC Sucks! CUN21:32, 5 Aug

Remember your reaction upon finding that the guy from Ten things I hate about you was going to be Joker in the last Batman movie? Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 21:37, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

Yeah. It was "who"? -OptyC Sucks! CUN21:40, 5 Aug

What does it matter anyway? —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 18:51, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Because GI JOE is a REAL AMERICAN HERO. Communist. -OptyC Sucks! CUN19:03, 7 Aug

Who? —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 03:46, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

... What? MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 03:48, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

• Roger Ebert reviewed GI Joe. His conclusion: It's sixteen different kinds of awesome! Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 07:24, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
• The Escapist review "...this movie is going to make kids lose their fucking minds..." Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 14:19, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

I think that, as usual, rotten tomatoes sums it up best: "Consensus: While fans of the Hasbro toy franchise may revel in a bit of nostalgia, G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra is largely a cartoonish, over-the-top action fest propelled by silly writing, inconsistent visual effects, and merely passable performances." - T.L.B. WotM, UotM, FPrize, AotM, ANotM, PLS, UN:HS, GUN 16:30, Aug 11

Rotten Tomatoes did a review on Led's life?! Woody On Fire! Talking Woody Stalking Woody 16:50, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

Yup, it says "Consensus: Jesus motherfucking Christ how does this guy continue to be this awesome without collapsing under the colossal wait of his own badassedness? It's like he's his own fucking star system of amazing, where people become cooler just by being around him." - T.L.B. WotM, UotM, FPrize, AotM, ANotM, PLS, UN:HS, GUN 16:54, Aug 11

Hmmm... Rotten Tomatoes is definitely not as awesome as Led. I mean, they misspelled "weight" in the review. Led would never do such a thing. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 17:09, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

I bet you it was Led. He thinks he's so cool because he got one, just one, glowing review on Rotten Tomatoes. I hope you don't get cocky you cocky bastard! You aren't as cool as that guy on Rotton Tomatoes says you are, possibly because of the Power Rangers pajamas you still wear. Woody On Fire! Talking Woody Stalking Woody 17:17, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

Psh, as if. Power ranger pajamas are for kids. Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go pick up my batman legos. - T.L.B. WotM, UotM, FPrize, AotM, ANotM, PLS, UN:HS, GUN 17:52, Aug 11

Look, Led, no one is saying Power Rangers is kid stuff, but we do think that wearing the same pajamas since you were 7 is not a good idea. The Bunching! Oh lord, the bunching! Woody On Fire! Talking Woody Stalking Woody 18:21, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

Everyone knows that the cool kids wear GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra underoos. Curiously the "Rise of Cobra" connotation changes considerably once puberty kicks in. I'm still waiting for it. Damn you, Puberty Fairy! Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 19:47, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

Modus raises an interesting point. Also: my "Cobra." - T.L.B. WotM, UotM, FPrize, AotM, ANotM, PLS, UN:HS, GUN 20:23, Aug 11
