Wow, that is bad.

serial tweaker, sorry
Agree to pull.
please don't capitalize my handle. I just don't like it.
Just A Stick And A Caption. Terrible. Pull that sucker.
Hi
+1 to run that through the chipper and spread it on the flower bed.
:D
Pull it like it's a clay pigeon.
Always think outside the box. Because the box is full of scorpions.
Count me as #7, and with previous discussions as precedent, it gone.

This could be better, but I'll start off the suggestions with this.

I can't see what's happening there and it relies entirely on the text. That's no better than JAFAAC.
Hi
It's definitely too dark for my tastes.
There's nothing happening there for you to see. Just a guy, a fairy and a text box.
Hi
Clock is set.
That's great. Although it also reminds me of You Have Researched Breathing (which has another VG Cats comic).
Oppression anywhere is a threat to democracy everywhere.
Hi
I like the VG Cats pic.
I think the comic is referencing the license system from Final Fantasy 12, which is more of an example of You Have Researched Breathing than Arbitrary Equipment Restriction. Still, I don't have any better ideas.
Cool Dude
That might be the best we can get. The closest direct pictoral example I can find is this screenshot

Hi
Anyone else for the VG Cats pic?
Sure, why not.

Hi
Good enough. It's up, potholed, and tagged; locking up.
It's just a stick and a caption, seems like an insta-pull for me.
I tried to find some sort of parody example in a webcomic or something like that to replace it, but I had no luck.
