It's been up for 2 days and he has 80 duckets already. I've got to come up with something like this. It's either that or start selling drugs.

That's almost as stupid as "Last Post Before Deletion".

Fill My Room ... with beer!

Bah, this is a lame ass spin off of a lame ass idea which makes it double unplus lame.

I don't give my change to lazy teenaged beggars, I won't give my money to lazy teenaged beggars with computers either. But I am envious of anyone who has a million Legos to play with.

matildabean, that Last Post Before Deletion crap irritates the hell out of me too. I'm not quite sure why though.

fenriq, because it encourages people to pollute the site even more than they already do.

The last post thing is annoying because it is 'premeditated fun'. Goofy things like that are only good when they are spontaneous. You can take your rules and shove them!

*shakes fist*

how many versions/homages to the original hoax can they come up with? getting real tired of all the press releases I get about a "million"-something. just stop it people. Hrere's the latest one I got the other day...

I'm a college student at IU who just put up a similar pixel site combining
poorly photoshopped cutouts of Donald Trump's hair and photos of Alex. You
might get a kick out of the parody if you're as insanely jealous as I am :)
