Talk:Bulletball

From Encyclopedia Dramatica

I lol'd so hard at that video. I remember watching that show in the first season or something, and it was so awesome to see people who'd spent their entire life savings on an invention that isn't even good, or they'd come in saying they spent hundreds of thousands of dollars, and all they had to show for it was an unfinished prototype. ~ endedrural _(talk) 04:40, 15 October 2009 (CDT)

Has anyone else looked at the address for BulletBall games address with google maps? It points to a parking lot. Address: 8212 Exchange Way St. Louis, MO 63144 --InsanityPlea 12:38, 19 October 2008 (CDT)

• "Placement on map is approximate" - there's also a building right there. - that shit is so cash 17:06, 19 October 2008 (CDT)

This is the saddest most pathetic thing I have ever seen. Sick Fuck 00:50, 22 October 2008 (CDT)

I've lol'd at every An Hero, yet bullet ball is the only article that actually makes me sad :(. Monkey Man 03:03, 22 October 2008 (CDT)

• It is sad... because all those An Heros were pathetic, lazy douchebags who expected something for nothing. This guy has worked really hard and sacrificed all his stuff for something that ultimately is just a table with some guard rails on the side. --Simia 10:20, 22 October 2008 (CDT)
• Geez, I could have thought of something like that while my mind wanders during my music class. HedgeJew 10:42, 22 October 2008 (CDT)
• That was my exact reaction at first, but a guy that works so hard will probably bounce back. Thankfully, An Heroes usually don't. Lurkin4lulz 10:48, 22 October 2008 (CDT)
• I did not feel sad at all because you have got to be a real dumbass, to throw away your whole life for such a dumbass idea... Editcat 11:22, 22 October 2008 (CDT)
• I honestly feel really, really bad for this guy, since he's still trying to believe his idea is good --Grammer 20:29, 22 October 2008 (CDT)
• I also feel bad for the guy. He seems like a nice person, this article and his story aren't so much funny as they are tragic. But it's not a very good "invention", it's just a table with side rails on it. I really think this guy has lost his mind.--JanusChrist 23:08, 22 October 2008 (CDT)

The guy in the sales pitch

sounds like an autistic kid who, one day, just decided he'd attempt to rap. Replicant10000 10:24, 22 October 2008 (CDT)

He was drunk when he had the inspiration for Bulletball!

Lol. Replicant10000 10:29, 22 October 2008 (CDT)

Oh Gawd

I feel sorry for this guy. He clearly needs a trip to the loony bin. And that song... this is the stuff fail legends are made of. Bulletball, bulletball, thats a BULLETBALL.Troll lulz 13:51, 22 October 2008 (CDT)

I felt troll remorse watching that. Wow. MTd2 17:34, 23 October 2008 (CDT)

So it's air hockey, except slower, less fun, and you have to go get the ball back from the other side of the room every time someone scores? PHUCKING PHAIL. This guy gets the Nobel Prize for self-trolling. Chunkmunky 15:14, 22 October 2008 (CDT)

Uhhnnh....

so....much....fail....

Someone, please, inject me with the mudkip lulz antidote....uhhhhgggnnn...

You know, maybe it's not so bad...

I mean, if the table wasn't so expensive, it seems like it would be a somewhat reasonable investment since it's a pretty versatile table. And in the infomercial, it showed one of them in a bar/pub. It might actually make sense to put something like a Bulletball table there. Except it really would suck getting the ball back every time someone scores. ~ endedrural _(talk) 03:33, 22 October 2009 (CDT)

I can't decide whether I want to see this living under a bridge and begging for quarters or coming to his fucking senses and rebuilding his self-destructed life. Atleast his wife had the good sense to get the fuck out. --Cubicle 23:17, 22 October 2008 (CDT)

Ain't this some winded up shit?

Really, is there any kind of evidence for his tragic story? Pretty much feels like a marketing strategy to me. Roysen 04:12, 23 October 2008 (CDT)

• Some mysteries are better left unsolved. I much prefer the downtrodden Marc "My Point" Griffin to Marc "Phat $tax" Griffin. - that shit is so cash 10:55, 23 October 2008 (CDT)

Japan's Olympian Bulletball Squad has a blog

Not really but this guy really seems to like physics. Did you know that you can apply positive velocity to the ball to get it past your opponents? - that shit is so cash 17:23, 23 October 2008 (CDT)

• The opponents can resist this, however. According to Newton's First Law of Motion, the opponent can stop or redirect the ball's movement by blocking it with his forearms and/or hands even though Mr. Griffin specifically engineered his Bulletball tables to minimize friction. The level of strategy in Bulletball is surprisingly deep.--Meme_Enforcer 12:17, 18 December 2008 (CST)

Mah point.

Mah point.

Question

I've been wondering this for a while now, but what EXACTLY is the difference between Bulletball and Bulletball Extreme?--Meme_Enforcer 12:17, 18 December 2008 (CST)

• Bulletball Extreme is the professional sport version of Bulletball and "has been endorsed by professional athletes, physicians and the physically challenged because of its wheelchair friendly design."

• • The difference is literally the table: it's a complete set rather than a fold-over tabletop. Other than that, there's a few "rules" to regulate the game. Presumably something about complete forearm blocking and picking up shit. _(talk) 17:40, 18 December 2008 (CST)

It's a table with guard rails

What exactly was he spending all his money on? It looks like it could be made out of some old round table for under $50. Revolverman 11:06, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

Cricket

Can the 2nd MOST FREAKIN' WATCHED Sport in the world get its own article instead of being redirected to this sport nobody knows about or finds funny articles about it funny? Cricket needs its own article, I could begin creating it if the watcher of this article can allow me to (and I could use some help too).
