So Long, Sploid



"But behind this veil of gentleness and peace, night is charging and will burst upon us wham! like that!  just when we least expect it. That's how it is on this bitch of an earth."

- Samuel Beckett

After many months of brilliance, Sploid is shuttering. It is a tragedy of epic proportions. News -- nay, nothing -- will ever be the same. Hilarious, poignant and with the best alt-text/scrollovers of all time.

Thanks, Sploiders.

      Crap!  You will know the end is near when the 'news' media reports that
      Michael Moore has given up snacks at Mickey D.'s.
