So I did not want to post this in the usual section but I could not resist at least posting the link to the dumbest playing cards deck kickstarter ever and very inappropriate for children

Fitting title, considering this project is an epic fail. Garbage.
“You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him.”

"Exploding Penis" and "Beat in the Meat" have the same ending.

I hadn't checked down there- no matter how bad they are- I always post them here. Don will be along shortly to merge the 2.

As godsawful a deck project as this is, it's STILL a deck project.  I'm moving it to the Plethora.

We've seen a few Internet/technology humor decks like this come and go.  I can't recall a single one that actually succeed.  The crowd that gets a laugh out of this stuff and thinks it's worth memorializing on the deck of cards is much larger than the crowd of people willing to actually pay money for such horribly ugly dreck.

Engines to full...  Engaging merge thursters...  Targeting computer locking on...  We have tone...

Range to target 3 posts and closing...  two posts...  one...  Houston, we have contact!

With the funding goal and by looking at the soft proofs and the box.  I would say this is going to be made by the USPCC.  It has all the hallmarks.  Maybe He should mention it.  It might get a few more backers.  He is going to need all the help he can get.  I sense this deck is for a small market.

Are you certain?  That project came from the UK while this one is based in Florida.

Nope. Just the same name as the "company" that put out the Anarchy deck.

I wouldn't be surprised, though.

What's with the head banging?  This thing isn't even worth that much effort.

Whoever supports this deck gets exactly what they deserve.  These topical meme decks have yet to make any serious traction, and if this "creator" thinks he can complete his project on that tiny of a budget, I want no part of it.  It will either be a successful failure or one truly craptacular deck.

Whoopsie! At a $250 goal, I don't think these are going to be made by the USPCC.  Even with the USPCC's Zazzle off shoot, it's at $21 per deck.  God knows where these are going to be made at, but it does look suspicious....

But you're leaving out gears, zombies and Cthulhu!  It's a must!!  I hear that's going to be the new "Rider Back No. 2" design!!!  :))

Of the three words in the title, two hit the nail on the head: EPIC FAIL.
