Side Salads don't deserve so much attention!!!!

but it's made of potato so I forgive it.

Wow. So that's what "1st World Problem" means.

At least now you know who shouldn't be voting and get sterilized

I have a strange gut feeling this thread is going to go south sometime. Maybe in page 2?

I'm just hoping it gets to page 2.

The idea that something like this could happen is so ridiculous that people wouldn't feel inclined to even click on the thread.

Best thread ever

let's make a kickstarter for world peace and develop a weapon that destroys other weapons!!!!
I'm only being half sarcastic I'd really love to see a "weapon" made to stop senseless killing(in real life)

Most of these people funded it as a joke, and according to the updates section of the kickstarter he is donating large portions of the money to charity.

My SD Card with the game on it is just as physical as your cartridge with the game on it.
I love Nintendo, that's why I criticize them so harshly.

That doesn't give him a pass for making a pointless Kickstarter that took attention away from decent/great ones that deserve backers, using funds in a way that wasn't advertised and using some of the funds to start a business.

Also. People donated to him with no intention of giving to the poor/hungry, which says a lot about the backers.

It doesn't matter what the backers are for or against. There's nothing in the Kickstarter clause that says he's obligated to use the extra money for the project. He could've pocketed the extra cash but instead he is giving something back to the community.

really? then he's fine. if people gave money, he did the project through the end and there's no rule saying all the money needs to be used in the project, there shouldn't be any objections to potato salad.

What's wrong with giving someone a dollar to help him make a potato salad?
