ZeldaQueen: Folks, there comes a time when something reaches critical wank capacity. Anyone who's been a member of das_sporking for any length of time probably knows that by now. Still, that doesn't make it any more pleasant to watch when it unfolds in front of you.

There have long been hints--hints as strong as concentrated skunk scent--that something was wrong with Channel Awesome.
But I never expected it to be as bad as "Not So Awesome" revealed it to be.
