You just put the shirt on, go to THIS special website, and you'll be yelling at your laptop for cheating in no time. Dynamite?! DYNAMITE?! Why you cheating son of a robot whore!!

Thanks to meowmo, who knows you don't need a computer to play paper rock scissors alone. You just have to sit on one hand till it goes numb.

@1 I don't understand the que thing really, but it's always nice to see you here

Fiduciary markers != Augmented Reality. The sooner people figure this out the sooner we can move on with real AR technology.

@4 I think it kind of does actually. I can also appreciate your use of bang equals to represent 'does not' instead of just typing 'doesn't'

how about rock, paper, shocker?
7. Joe - February 1, 2010 12:00 PM

Rock, Paper, Scissors, Lizard, Spock is the BEST...... just sayin
9. your mom is my whore - February 1, 2010 12:05 PM
@6 win, shocker is a great addition to the mix
but the whole idea is kinda lame to play by yourself
that would just increase your level of suckiness
LV UP Loser!!!!!

@4&5 I am just too baked right now to follow what is being said. My brain doesn't seem to comprehend anything being said, except maybe that "!=" equals "doesn't"
11. jodie - February 1, 2010 12:18 PM
@10 yeah..Thats what i gathered but, that would make the sentence grammaticaly incorrect. (not that i care...just tryin'to figure things out)
12. naas - February 1, 2010 12:26 PM
@10 no work today? I was only drinking this morning up until seeing your comment, I'll pack one up right now & join you

Where's the dude who comments using the weird Q eyes? I like the picture his screen name brings up in google images, but I can't find those symbols in the character map.
They're like this σ except upside down

the concept of this is interesting on how a green zombie-like hand sticks out of a little window from your shirt and only wants to play rock-paper-scissors... to prevent the urge to rip off the person's scalp and devour the brains.

@12 No work on Mondays. Mondays I'm at home with the little ones.

No computer geeks here who care to translate "!=" means "does not equal," or any variation of that?
Grammatically, it's fine.
As for this AR pos......whatever. It's a cute idea and I guarantee someone will use it to make a video of a virtual hand jacking them off. If you notice, the hand doesn't come magically out of the shirt. It's on the video shot from the computer. Ever play that game popping balloons on your tv with a webcam to "motion caputre" yourself?
Better application: Live video stream with a virtual horny dog that humps the object(s) being recorded. College humor ahoy!
