Hope you got what you wanted for Christmas!
Comments of the Year is a feature where we scour the Comments of the Week archive looking for comments. The ones that make you think the fullest, the ones that make you laugh the heartiest and the ones that make you cry the hardest (but also laugh the most), and consolidate them into an entertaining package for the viewing pleasure of you, the Destructoid community.
Comments will fall into three categories:
TRUTH: Happy New Year!
LOL: Crappy Ewe Year!
WUT? Eating sheep poop, going “Mmm, sweet candy.”
[My thanks go to GoldenGamerXero, knutaf, Xzyliac, LawofThermalDynamics, Handy and VGFreak1225 for their contributions to COTWs in 2011.]
From Comments of the Year: Part 1
Congratulations to The Guy for winning last week’s caption competition, though I must insist that any resemblance to an exposed testicle in the picture is purely a trick of the shade on the inner thigh…honest!
From How to donate to the Jonathan Holmes burglary fund
This community; you can’t help but be impressed by it.
From: CNN Gets Gamer Who Grew Up on Halo to Review the 3DS
The natural thought process of anyone who saw the video.
LawofThermalDynamics: Probably what actually happened over at CNN HQ. Here at Commentoid Corp. We promise that we will never betray our customers over hookers and blow.
Sean: I will wait until I am offered hookers and blow before I pass judgement.
From Anonymouse – A Re-Introduction
Excitement! Tension! Etc!
From Technical Difficulties: A true opponent stands before me
Occams illustrates one of the hidden dangers of buying preowned.
From Review: WWE All Stars, Tony Schiavone Edition
Hmm, so the wrestlers would have to have their picnic in the park…what would that look like?
From: E3: Insomniac to unveil multiplatform game on Monday
Well, I don’t know about you, but that’s why I only play games I make and don’t release. That way, I know I’m the only one enjoying the game. Booya!
From: Let’s Talk Turkey
It all started with this innocent picture
Then, something beautiful happened.
All well and good, until it went to Knutaf’s head
I was tempted to include a Photoshop of my own but, you know; I’m lazy.
From: Cosplay calendar to aid Japanese relief efforts.
I’d probably, you know, keep my eye out for that pink star, line up the old chap and pop it in. Everyone.
I’d ask first though. I’m a gentleman like that.
From Duke Nukem web game makes women get naked
FTA:In conclusion, this game is dumb and not very sexy, not least of all because the women really don’t look like they’re enjoying themselves very much. Where’s the fun in that?
Remember Andy; If she wakes up just say you were sleep-sexing. It got me out of quite a few sticky situations, that excuse.
FromThe Bar
That’s racist…?
From The Bar
Don’t worry Changston, you’re actually right on time.
From Dead Space 3 accidentally confirmed?
It wasn’t all fun and games though:
From Full COG armor? Also, transgender Link pics. Also also, Spider-Man pics.
Yep, this is the forums alright.
From ESRB: L.A. Noire has blood spurts, pubic hair, racism
White man’s biggest treat is balsamic vinegar, surely?
From Review: SOCOM 4: U.S. Navy SEALs
That’s not losing his mind. Losing his mind would be if Jim wrote the review in fecal matter and scanned it in. Or if, instead of writing the game review, he just spent the whole blog talking about potato chips, before giving the game “Paprika out of 10”.
From Gorge on these lovely Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim shots!
Not only did I have to re-read this comment three times to understand it, but the guy’s finger on the screenshot doesn’t look like Stretch Armstrong’s arm at all! In fact, it looks like a dick with a kink in it. Isn’t that right Dr Freud?
Ja, dat is unqveschunably ein dick mit a kink in it.
From: Nintendo posts huge loss in first quarter
Is Stealth being mis represented? Don’t ask me; the answer lies within the salad.
From: E3: First impressions of Prototype 2

I’m off to eat some awful offal lawfully. We’re back to Comments of the plain old Week next week. See you then.
