I am fond of the Penny Arcade, even if I don't always know what games they are referring to in their strips.

What we need more of is Cardboard Tube Samurai.

I have fallen out of the habit of reading PA, though at one point I read the full archives.

I thoroughly enjoyed On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness (http://www.popmatters.com/pm/review/penny-arcade-adventures-on-the-rain-slick-precipice-of-darkness-episode-one/), parts I and II.

Whenever someone posts a link to Penny Arcade I go check it out, but it rarely rises above the level of lame in my eyes.

Sort of what Paul said. I check it out, but it's about things I know nothing about. Also, the art makes me queasy.
This amused me, though.

Penny Arcade, I do not usually care for at all, but I'll admit that there are the occasional good ones that break the mold.

The comedy formula of Wacky Gamer #1, Wacky Gamer #2 and Token Ladette-Lady does not generally appeal to a dude.
