In case anyone doesn't get it, Frank's not really a "fucking waste." He's a cool guy. Just a "little waste." :)

I laughed at that last answer (well, and a few others)! Ouch at that Game Informer burn!

"I am unfamiliar with this person. Is it a special-needs child whom I allowed to beat me for charity?"

LOL, great one Shoe.

But did the restaurant honor the reservation when they realized he wasn't Bond?

Frank's cake is a lie, and I challenge him to even operate a microwave without referring to the instructions (cooking actual food is optional...he just has to make it "go").

So that's how Game Informer stuffs its circulation numbers!

The cockpit of that Star Bird is a total rip-off of a Y-Wing. Also, he looks like Michael Chiklis' younger brother.

I remember Frank most from EGM rival magazine Game Players/Ultra Game Players magazine.



Anyway, nice page.

I didn't know the plants from Little Shop of Horrors had names. Then again, having watched Little Shop of Horrors would have helped.

I just want to thank Frank for investing cake. It's quite tasty.
