So, as a counterpoint to the other thread, this is where we talk about entries that we find incredibly amusing and intelligent. To start us out, I present the entirety of Real Life, which had me cracking up when I first read it.

Pokémon X and Y

A lot of it, but especially:

If one looks closely, they can see Lysandre wears his Mega Ring on his middle finger. It's not hard to imagine Lysandre activating it by Flipping the Bird, considering your character raises the wrist their Mega Ring is on to activate it.

And:

Froakie resembles Benjamin Franklin. Greninja resembles a ninja. That leaves Frogadier in the transitory middle stage, and as such it looks like a NINJA BEN FRANKLIN.

The Western Animation subpage for Furry Confusion has this entry for VeggieTales:

The silly song "Pizza Angel" from the "Minnesota Cuke" video includes a reference to how much Larry the Cucumber likes tomato sauce — while ignoring the fact that his best friend is a tomato. One wonders if Mr. Lunt likes pickle on "His Cheeseburger".

(And then one wonders where the crust came from. There's probably flour in it. Flour comes from wheat. Wheat is a grain. Grains are seeds. Seeds are embryonic plants. So the pizza is cheese on top of the mashed innards of Bob's uncle, on top of hundreds of abortions.)

Well, that’d be jus’ a waste. Why would ya want to deprive the world of such anomaly as yourself?

It amuses me that Crapsack World, Sick Sad World and World Half Empty were once separate articles. And when I look up the discussion pages, nobody can agree on what the distinctions were even at the time.

Stories don't tell us monsters exist; we knew that already. They show us that monsters can be trademarked and milked for years.

Video Game Generations: Seventh Onwards

Iron Soul, a third-person shooter on Steam. Issues abound, including a text crawl intro narrated by what sounds like a text-to-speech program that can't pronounce words like "evil" and "hypothetical", a crosshair that has to be manually turned on instead of being on by default, a severe dearth of enemy types, an obnoxious Mission Control character (who's even called the Annoying Voice in the game's trading cards) that sounds like a mix between Mario and Jar Jar Binks, a laughable plot involving the world governments discovering possible life on other planets and then apparently immediately constructing an army of Killer Robots to fend off a "hypothatical" Alien Invasion, wonky jumping mechanics, and complaints of at least one copy of the game in which the first boss was rendered unbeatable by having no health meter. Watch Brutalmoose tear the game apart (at least up until the aforementioned boss) here.

[up] x7

Brainiac has had his appearance retooled many, many times, but his original cover portrayal◊ consisted of a tight-fitting, legless pink unitard and matching boots. Presumably his budget allowed for either super-science devices that could go toe-to-toe with Superman, or pants, but not both.

That is also funny.

The stinger for Commie-Nazis.

This stinger was made by NazBol Gang!

I don't know why NAZBOL GANG jokes crack me up so much.

This entry on Magikarp Power for Dark Souls (emphasis mine):

The two most useless weapons in the first game are the Straight Sword Hilt (yes, a hilt — blade not included) and the Broken Straight Sword. However, if you somehow manage to smoke the right combination of drugs to think upgrading either of them all the way to +10 is a good idea, you can then infuse your Useless Piece of Crap +10 with the Soul of Sif to get the Greatsword of Artorias, which has the best Holy modifier in the game (allowing you to destroy otherwise endlessly reforming skeletons) and gets very good scaling from four different stats. Infusing the Soul of Sif with any other +10 sword results in a much weaker, cursed version of the same blade (which can at least hit ghosts, but there are better ways to do that).

From Josef Stalin's entry on Retcon.RealLife:

Stephen Jay Gould once reported reading a version of the Soviet Encyclopaedia that completely removed Stalin from history, which is kind of like trying to sell the Star Wars original trilogy as "The Jabba The Hutt Show!"

[up]Holy shitstains, that is a Creepy yet Spectacular Easter Egg.

Anyways, this Parodied paragraph from White-and-Grey Morality is worth a chuckle.

"The conflict is said to cause philosophers headaches by the very nature of good and evil it's presenting, where as regions are divided on it and the conflict is causing them to split off into factions. The entire conflict is over one ice cream stand charging a little extra for sprinkles, just so with tax it would cost an even amount, while the other gives them for free with every cone."

From I. M. Meen:

[I.M. Meen] also refers to himself as "the most powerful magician in the world". Getting defeated by a prepubescent kid does not lend this boast any credibility.

[up] I remember that moment in the actual show. That was legendarily hilarious! [lol]

On a similar (and more biased note), the page pic and caption for The Xenophile. I say biased because I am their submitter, but it sure makes me smile each time I look at it.

Heal the Cutie, then point the Laser-Guided Karma and Disaster Dominoes towards the Asshole Victim that had wronged her. I love this plot line!
