Yeah, that spelling is just a reference for pronunciation. He told me a couple times, "Just think 'hamburger'", to which I would reply with a grimace, "But... I don't wanna think 'hamburger'". I mean, it just sounds so ridiculous. XD Maybe he pronounces it that way to seem less uppity?

Hamburger? Grimace? Riiiight.

I've always assumed it was pronounced like the ground beef (or if you will "ground chuck").

See.. I had a feeling Jake would know....*runs off to pre-order it* Regular price is $25..not bad...but I'll be getting it for $16.85...muaha... I love having a barnes and noble membership.

People in the mass media say "Hamburger" all the time without it being a McDonald's reference. But, when I do it's a... par-- part of a manhole?? INSIDE-JOKES (that aren't really funny, thus making use of the term 'joke' rather awkward) FTW, SUCKAZ!!

No one questioned that Jake would know. We just all knew better than to think Will would.

Yeah!

That Will guy doesn't know ANYTHING.

And he's a goon. Thanks for letting everyone know, gobo!

This is what ol' McDonald's reference had to say:

Seriously?? My Aunt Alice was a Goon.

Small world...

That's awesome, gobo.

Your aunt looks a little like Olive Oyl, from the wonderful world of "Popeye."

And, re. the Mirage Universe book: whether it's November or December (right now my money's on Wednesday, November 25th - the day before Thanksgiving), I don't particularly care.

All I know is, it'll be a neat way to kind of cap off the year

Looks pretty awesome. Now if only it were in vivid Steve Lavigne color to complement his recoloring of TMNT #1.

*Ninjinister* · 08-16-2009, 12:01 AM

Flippin' a, so much amazing stuff coming out... my wallet's going to be EMPTY come the year's end!

Oh cool. Didn't even know the books update was was updated. Kind of steepy price for the Mirage U book. At 160 pages for $25 and yet other trades from Mirage have more or less pages and had a more leveled price.
Of course I'll be getting this but its almost so costly.

That's not steepy at all. That's actually cheap for a source book.
