I believe this comic is an allegorical illusionarist technique derived from the phallus cloro-hydroxinate.

I love the comics, but I can’t take it anymore! So…

“Thee” is the objective form of “thou.”

“Thou art.” “Thou hast.” “Thou givest.”

“I spake unto thee,” “I gave it thee,” “I smite thee.”

See the difference?

Most of these comics are funny in a clever, monocle-adjusting kind of way, but something about GBA’s innocent enthusiasm made me lol out loud.

I’m fairly certain this is commenting on the current hardware sales.
ps2 is beating 360, gba I think still beating both
Nintendo beats all other hardware combined.

this is a bit late, but the truth within it from a year ago is indeed epic.

basically it’s the GBA, years old, besting the PS3, perhaps as a reminder of last year of where things started out.

I think this comic is trying to say incest is okay, and will improve you as a person. At least, that’s what I WISH it were saying.

Are the implications in this satire accurate? Is the GBA really STILL beating current gen castles? Who would buy a GBA these days?!

I’ve got a hunch that the GBA will be a reoccurring character just like the fat X-Box.

Maybe not this year but by Year 3 or whatever we’re on now maybe GBA had more sales than the current consoles.

@Josh. Isn’t the grammar in this one actually correct then? Seems okay to me…

(I was going to back this up and list my credentials too, but I won’t in case it turns out I’m wrong.)

People are buying them because they’re super-cheap, I suppose. Are used GBA’s being tallied? They’re selling for $20-30 these days.

New ones? No idea. Maybe some nations are 5 years behind.

So if thee is to thou like he is to him:
‘I bested him.’ is as correct as ‘I bested thee.’

So it’s correct.

Shouldn’t the Wii be frothing at the mouth and trying to murder that GBA?
But then, who cares? Continuity is for losers anyway.
