          SPACE INVADER INVASION
1st Place April 09 Have you ever happened upon a tiled Space Invader on a city street? Most of these creations are the work of one man. He likes to be called "Invader". For the past eight years he has been traveling the planet earth playing his own reality Space Invader game. For every tiled Space Invader he cements in place he gives himself points. He has Invaded 35 cities on five continents. He is documenting his invasion and even offers a collection of maps. If your planning a trip to one of the invaded cities stay alert, bring your laser beam and remember they like to move sideways.

    DWIGHT K. SCHRUTE
2nd Place January 09 Here is a small list to refresh your memory why Dwight is Awesome:
"I don't have a lot of experience with vampires, but I have hunted werewolves. I shot one once, but by the time I got to it, it had turned back into my neighbor's dog."

4000th vote goes to Dwight.

I'm in awe DorkPower. You now have found time to vote 700 times more than me. I'll probably be a major for the next two months. I think its time you pony up and buy this site :-)
reply
Thanks Ivan. If I was a guy with money to burn, I would. But really, I don't want to be the owner of this dance club, just the guy who owns the floor with his awesome moves.
reply
Anyone else notice how some of the "space invaders" look more like Pac-Man ghosts?
reply
Spooooky . . .
reply
Could someone attempt to convince me that this is somehow awesome?
Because I currently just don't see it. reply
Wow, i know. I mean its kinda awesome, but not undefeated awesome. Its like a video game version of Where the Hell is Matt, but without the depth and meaning of it.
reply
At most it inspires perplexed bemusement... but it doesn't make me feel awe-struck.
Regardless of how neat it may be, SII is simply aweless. reply
Although, I do think it's the most awesome graffiti ever. It takes a lot more thought and time than just using a can of spray paint.
reply
Banksy is more awesome than Space Invader graphiti. (www.banksy.co.uk)
reply
I had never seen his work before, but I have to agree with you.
reply
I'm quite fond of the fact that he installed several of his works at the MOMA, the British Museum and the Tate ... without anyone knowing about it for several weeks.
reply
Banksy is super-awesome...but I also love the fact that Invader is not only doing guerilla art, he's got his own points system for it. That's so unnecessary as to be awe-tastic!!!
reply
I must agree, I never would have guessed at the beginning of the month that the final matchup would be these two....
reply
I can't believe Grammie spanked Dwight.. I wonder if it was fair fight?
reply
Clearly Dwight couldn't get to any of his many weapons that are hidden around the office.
reply
The case against Dwight:
1) This is a mainstream, currently popular pop-cultural reference that supports the product of a massive media conglomerate. 2) He's a rip-off of a more amusing character on the better British version of a TV show. 3) You laugh at Dwight because Rainn Wilson is trying to be funny. As opposed to, say, Benny Lava, who is awesome because he isn't trying to be funny. I rest my case: Dwight K. Schrute is not awesome. reply
You are mistaken, and will be deducted 5 Schrute Bucks.
