    how does this crap get accepted.......
     
  3. ...complete with fake 5-star reviews. (Look at their review histories.)

    I'm-a gonna have some fun with this one. Not the app. The review. The Hall of FAIL has been lonely, so very lonely lately...

    Hey, C'mon; at least it has a talking animated character; that's a step up from yo mama :p
     
  6. That's a bit like saying Anne Coulter is a step up from Fred Phelps; no matter how you slice it, they're both still giant douchebags.

    You didn't find the voice clips the slightest bit humorous?
     
  8. I'd rather listen to Fran Drescher laugh all day.

    Oh, jeez. Maybe not. Just the thought of that makes me homicidal. It's close, though.

    But it IS a step up, though ;)
     
  10. Well, yes, but that's a bit like saying Anne Cou---

    Whoa. I just felt an overpowering urge to chase my tail.

    Yeah I hear you, lol. This was my boss' idea; I worked on it under protest so I can't really argue with you ;) That being said, I do think the voice is funny though.
     
  12. It isn't so much the voice (I said so much) as the jokes. They're ... they're just ... terrible. Not terrible in the way that makes you groan while hiding a smirk up your sleeve. Terrible in the way that makes you want to frantically scoop out your nads with a sharpened melon baller so you'll never be able to have children that might one day run afoul of them.

    The only reason I'm still whole is because I don't have a melon baller.

    Wow, that's extreme, lol. All I did was the coding; I'll have to yell at my boss about the jokes ;) I figured the less involved I was in the rest of the project the better chance I had of avoiding being murdered by an angry mob.

    I saw a few typos after the fact also; I'll fix them in an update (assuming my company hasn't been lynched in the meantime).

    100 jokes is really, really low. I mean, if I can go through 50 fmylife.com entries in maybe 3-5 minutes, how long will this thing last me. And fat jokes get old quick. They should be in the moment. Y'know, you feel that zen moment coming up a good jokes that fits the setting rises like a balloon floating into the stratosphere. Of course, the pressure inside the balloon becomes greater than the pressure outside, and it pops, but still...

    Just wondering how did you get my email address? I got this sent to my email a few days ago.

    Hey Gator,

    I don't handle the email blasting for the company, but if I had to guess I'd say that maybe you sent an email to support or asked for promo code or something like regarding an earlier app; I don't think the blast list was very large so it must be something like that. Is there an unsubscribe link or some such in the blast? If not, send me a PM with your address and I'll nix it from the list if you like.

    Yes, I got sent this as well.
    BTW:
    Mindfield, I now consider you as an awesome person.

    Yes that article was pretty funny Mindfield, and you banged it out super fast, lol. Fazzy, what I said for Gator goes for you too (or anyone else) if you got the blast and don't want to be on the list send me a PM with the addy and I'll get them to take it off (if there's not some kind of unsubscribe; they use constant contact and I'm not sure exactly how that works).

    Suicide bombing is extreme. This is just protecting future generations.

    You should. And while you're at it, take that dog-eared 1981 copy of "Totally Tasteless Jokes" away from him. Smack his nose with a rolled-up newspaper if you have to. We'll all be doomed he gets to the Polish jokes.

    You are a very wise man. I hope you remembered to leave plenty of comments in the code so anyone who storms the office and scans it will know you were coerced.

    printf("You're so fat that Rush Limbaugh suggested you should go on a diet!"); /* I DIDN'T WRITE THESE, HONEST. */
    ...
    printf("You're so fat that the only reason people gather around you is because they can't achieve escape velocity!"); /* SERIOUSLY, MY BOSS DID IT, BLAME HIM! */
    ...
    printf("You're so fat that you're banned in Chicago!"); /* OH GOD JUST KILL ME PLEASE */

    Aww, thanks. :)

    As for the E-Mail blast, I just assumed whoever did up the list gathered up E-Mails of people who run or write for review sites or something.
