Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

This thing is terribly flawed.  Where are the suppressors?  Sawed off shotguns?  If you're putting bounty huners on the list, why not Monster Hunters and Mall Nanja's?  Mr. T, but no Gunny Ermy?  No John Wayne?  No James Bond.  No Han Solo or Boba Fett?

Piece of junk...   :lol:

In the original version (http://io9.com/#!5113799/the-periodic-table-of-awesoments - which actually came from somewhere called Dapperstache) from a few years ago, the block occupied in our version by Samuel L. Jackson was given to... BOB SAGET?!?  :facepalm:

Perhaps a periodic table for APS is in order...

Bacon, detcord and yosafbridge occuping top spots

Fistful, burning floppy disks and zardoz occuping rotten spots

Once completed, it should be stickyed at the top.

I hearby motion for such a table to be commisioned.

Is the motion seconded?

I third the motion that APS have it's own table.  The one in the OP is the Periodic Table of Meh.

If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

It doesn't even specifically mention guns, and is therefore Fail by default.

And without John Wayne or John Moses Browning,  you can hardly call it awesome.
