I used to check Something Awful every morning after my morning papers and yeah I thought some of the Shmorky flash videos where funny, particularly since there were a whole bunch of people working on the comedy and they'd do these silly Weekend Web things reading out pervert and weirdo's internet posts. For years SA was good, they used to have great articles too. Some years back I stopped going to SA because I literally wondered "Why am I still going here? It sucks ass these days"
I did notice Shmorky at one point seemed to phone his animation in, there was no more good animation, they were barely colored and they just generally sucked ass. And so for years now I forgot about SA and Shmorky.
Yesterday night I go to bed but before that I thought I saw "Shmorky" listed in this lolcow forum. This morning, still kinda sleep drunk (what do you want from me, im old), I check it out thinking maybe it was just some weening and that Shmorky couldn't be half bad.
Boy was I wrong, I was dead wrong.
Just that annoying toon voice alone, or the diapers, or the borderline furry pedophelia shit. Looks like I got some serious catching up to do.
Thank you for this thread, I now finally know why Shmorky left SA.
