The w00tstock organization wishes to post the following photo correspondence from “Wil”—which is most certainly not a hoax, and is not just a derivative attempt to cash in on some meme that was funny for 36 hours last week—without comment.
We will, however, attempt to rise above this hardship and continue somehow. The next w00tstock shows will occur September 16 & 17 at the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco.
We’re working our contact for “Wil’s” last name.

I think we should all take a moment to consider the implications of this shock news.
…
Where do we send our résumés?
It’s like the BEST THING EVER had sex with itself and this is the babies of that beautiful union.
omg.
OMG.
it’s not even 9:30am PDT, and Wil, Paul, Storm & Adam have all won the internet ALREADY.
Even funnier than the original, methinks. Well done, gentlemen!
#GiggleSnort
Again Wil, Paul, Storm and Adam have made EPIC WIN before lunchtime. That was awesome.
That was full of awesome. However, I’m still sad that Wil is leaving W00tstock.
HAHAHAHAAA. Thiswas awesome. Thanks for the laughs!
Must. Visit. Daily.
If you zoom in on Adam’s picture?
There’s a hair that looks like it’s growing out of his nose.
That is all.
Brilliant! Thank you, guys.
Nice riff. I actually laughed out loud!
My day is made.
A++++
Would read again.
Hmmm…”Did not see THAT coming”…Oh wait…maybe I did…..
So — bathroom humor aside — is he actually quitting or not?
You guys need to eat more bacon. Why? Because bacon is…bacon. And you need more of it.
Now, enough of this “quitting” nonsense, and get back to eating bacon! Work, yeah, I mean get back to the work of being awesome!
is it bad that im praying this is a joke and he isnt quitting? because i JUST bought my tickets about 5 minutes before this post. i’d still come but it just wouldnt be the same
Very funny and clever.
This reminds me of an old joke.
There were two brothers who went fishing. On brother suspected the other was sneaking drinks out of his beer. So during on trip he drank his beer down and refilled it with urine and place it back down. A second later his brother took a drink from this bottle and then he saw his brother spew. He finally got his evidence.
Brilliant! Ab. So. Lute. Lee. F. N. Bri. Lee. Ant!
brilliant.
Mark beat me to brilliant. So, I recant, and thusly use: mega-fuckin-awesome.
Well played, sirs. Well played.
Noticing that I was also beat out on my choice of word by Rasmus, I leave here as, quite simply, a bad thread follower. Good day.
Wow!! What a great storyboard!!! Can’t WAIT for the movie!!!! WIN!!
I really shouldn’t be so amused by that… but I am!
Thank you, gentlemen. :^D
(And yes, I’m using the term so loosely that this fall apart sentence might structure just…)
HILARIOUS!!!
Im Sad Because I’m Flying!
I just lol’d my office to death!
The original meme was not all that funny. *This*, however, is glorious. Thanks for making my day.
I liked the original more — the one with the hot chick on The Chive.
This cracked me up – much needed today
I am now crying with laughter. Thanks, gents.
Hilarious.
Hold on… is that Karen Gillan?
Am I the only one who suspects that this is just a gross-er version of W00tstock’s real backstage?
Wait, how do you “penny” a door shut? I need to know!
i am on a horse
lolz
peed in the beer? that sounds bloody aussie mate! LOL
Wow, Wil’s french face actually looks like he views us with contempt!
Which he doesn’t, I mean. I wish I could edit my last comment. Wil Wheaton is amazing!
Ok new meme. Photoshop that flying Wil photo.
Love this. All over its face.
Wil has that French accent down pat. Impressive.
Wil Wheaton will you go to prom with me?!!!
j/k I’m too old for prom
We hate to “break character” on the joke, but for the record: Wil is NOT, repeat, NOT quitting w00tstock. That is all.
P&S
wil when will you grow up son and capt wants to bitch at you for pppp in his earl gray tea
OMG! “Look, I made a graph”, “See, that’s fucking science man”!! That was some funny shit.
That was the best inside joke display I almost understood!
If you guys ever need a geeky Lego building cartoonist, look me up. I need friends like you.
You boys have way too much fun.
Never change.
omgYAY now i can relax and enjoy the joke without shedding tears over wil quitting
I laughed, a little
actually, I chuckled
but then I thought, “it was kinda lame but funny”
Then I thought, “why am I writing this?”
Then I thought, “jeeze I haven’t played d&d since I was a wee lad.”
Then I thought, “O bajebus, I still play pokemon but its kinda cool because its on an iphone now.”
Jesus that was amazing. Bravo. Hilarious.
What it all boils down to is this:
It was fun, but who would you rather check out in a Princess Leia slave girl bikini:
The “I Quit” Whiteboard girl,
or
Wil?
PS: The folks on the link would be a great addition to w00tstock – Ottawa (eh). Remember, a former major employer in the city was nicknamed “The Big Nerd Ranch” – where could be more deserving of w00tCan?
What? No spoofs on the ‘HOPA’ acronym?
Hopelessly Obnoxious Princess Asshat?
Horribly Oblivious, Pathologically Annoying?
Any more?
At first I was :-O
Then I was like XD
Now I’m all
Bogarting all the hummus, though… that’s just evil.
Brilliant, but eeeeevil. Heh!
I laughed till I peed (in Adam’s beer, of course).
As Chris Hardwick would say,
“That was AMAZING!”
That was awesome. =)
It had to do with something that resulted from excessive drinking. Knew it when I saw the first picture.
Tricorder App on the Droid FTW!
I laughed so loud I startled my cat. And she’s deaf.
Incredibly funny, guys! Loved it! Needed it!
Thank you all!!!
I’d say ‘Get back to work.’ but I’m not that mean. Carry on having fun!
Thanks for the laugh guys!
“I’m sad because I’m flying” Homestarrunner reference FTW!
I’m surprised no one called Storm a HPOA. No, wait, I’m not surprised…
Just too damn funny. haha Love it!
Wil, this is the second time I considered breeding with you .
Friggin awesome!
Keep on truckin!
//fnord
I would love to work with these guys. Or party with these guys. Or silently sap the awesome straight from their posts with mystical marmoset magicalness.
Awesome. Though now I’m not sure if I want to play in your guys’ sandbox anymore if you have problems holding your bladders
Dude! Don’t rage-quit!
Well done gentlemen, well done. I was quite properly entertained by this slide show series. Your awesomeness knows no bounds.
I am obviously a Disgruntled Old Coot of the shanty-dwelling variety who, even though I adored the Star Text Next Generation series and purchased the entire series on DVD, does not comprehend ANY of the posting.
Maybe it’s a generational thing since I am a product from the heart of the Baby Boom and am apparently to blame for all of society’s woes and am responsible along with my social cohort for all of the woes confronting the generations following the dreaded Boomer Bunch.
I was laboring in the fields alongside migrant workers at an age when the Gen X and later generations had reached work force ages.
Where were YOU wimps under that hot sun not reaching overtime pay until 60 hours per week had elapsed?
Buncha’ wimpy whining kids.
Wonder will you will be when my minimal Social Security retirement has me scrounging in the dumpsters for sustenance?
If there’s even a funds remaining.
Slackers. Get to work to keep an Old Disgruntled Coot from abject poverty.
This is awesome! gj.
I have always had a deep and abiding love for you guys, but that was great.
You win the Internet!
THE GAME bitches!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You forgot the “Bazingga” pic. (and if ANYONE says “I thought the Bazingga was implied” I will thwap you with a trout). You had me serieously worried for a good few hours there.
Seriously funny though! It never gets old, Wil telling his former self to Shut Up.
http://w00tstock.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/05e-400×300.jpg totally shoulda been Marian Call
NICE. I love that last frame, guys. Really puts the ZING! into the whole bit.
hahahahahaha <3
http://www.flickr.com/photos/badastronomy/4902661232/
’nuff said.
Wait, Storm *held the bottle* for Wil? Is this some new euphemism?
is that Billie Piper in the background? Also this was brilliant
Troll Bait is the name of my Foghat cover band.
Is that Karen Gillan in the 10th pic?
Lol
That’s Karen Gillan! Where the fuck is the source on that picture!
I’m trying hard not to laugh since i’m at work but THANK YOU for that.
I needed a good laugh. And i agree, WAY better than the original
Oh. Ohmygoodness. I cannot stop laughing over this. Adam’s face at the end is PRICELESS.
Guys, this post made me feel all tingly in special places.
Then again, so does hummus.
Isn’t it obvious? I mean, with the beard and all. The “Wil” this post refers to is obviously Wil Riker.
ohgodohgodohgod
FAIL
Funny shit, seriously got me laughing.
Also what App is that for the iPad?
I just got one the other day, so I’m curious as it’s pretty cool.
Fan-tastic! Excellent job guys!
I thought it peaked too early as I had trouble getting past the Karen Gillan photo.
The ragged photo pastes (complete with holes) make the whole thing. That was deliberate, right? I mean, you don’t actually edit stuff that way? Please? (puts head on desk and whimpers).
OMG that was SO LOL fu-nny! After dealing with a M-F-ing spreadsheet all day this is what makes life bearable again.
Totally read the lower text on the Venn diagram as “eats all the humans.” Hummus is funnier.
I love you guys so much. In an appreciative-nerd way, not a creepy-stalker way.
Please, dear sweet zombie jesus, let Molly get the last word. PLEASE.
>.>
<.<
I never saw the original, I found out it was a hoax the first time I heard about it (it's what I get for having a job that doesn't let me sit on a computer all day.
Hot chick or no though.. this is far better.
To answer 2 questions:
1: I'd rather see Wil in a Slave Leia costume, because I've seen TONS of hot (and not so hot) women in them.. Wil would just be epic funny! (especially if he didn't shave for about 3 days before..)
2: Pennying a door closed is very simple, and works best with strong, heavy doors.
Step 1) Lift the door up, you may need leverage for this if it's a heavy door.
Step 2) slide a stack of pennies under the door, that is significantly taller than the normal ground clearance of the door.
Step 3) allow the doors weight to rest on said pennies.
Step 4) Laugh your tuchus off as someone tries to open it.
sweet! do you get a reality show now?
Super cool
love it 
sooooooooooooo funny 
-º
that was hilarious!!! Very good fellas!
what is this nonsense?
For a second there I thought Storm’s Venn diagram said “eats all the humans”, but it’s “hummus”, which makes more sense, tho slightly less cannibalistic….
Oh god, this is awesome.
Funnier than that chick who fake-quit.
You made my day!
Shut up Wesley.
That is the funniest farking thing I’ve seen in a long, long time.
Was that adam at the end adam savage from myth busters?
i love it
Total and unimaginable win. :3 I love you guys. <3
Storm’s drawing of his dubious face is an excellent likeness.
Too bad the impact of this hilarious send-up has been dampened by a JetBlue flight attendant actually quitting his real job on the exact same day.
Again.
Props to Storm on the Venn diagram!
You guys rock my socks. =D
Hilarious, guys! And stupidly never knew what a facepalm looked like in real life. Thanks for the show and tell.
Absolutely laughed when commenter gave instructions on how to penny a door!
I want to be at the show where Elyse is a special guest.

Hi Wil, I used to have a huge ass crush on you when I was in Junior high and you were in Stand By Me. Anyhow, I think is hilarious! usually when my hubby sends my geeky jokes I just roll my eyes, but this actually had me cracking up.
Love ya,
Kirsten
I have never heard of w00tstock. It also seems like more and more people doing that stupid white board thing these days. If you want more people to see this, or anything else, you should check out this Youtube video (link in my name) about Fireviews. It’s really helpful.

Oh holy hell that was funny.
About as funny as Jesus
What is with all the facial hair? Blech. Get rid of it. Your chins are fine.
This may be my new favorite thing of all time.
GREAT!!! Too funny guys. also: Love the hat Wil!
Roses are #FF0000
Violets are #0000FF
All my bases belong to you
Nice work guys… now if he would just stop posting to Slashdot…..
these are so fucking retarded!! LOSERS!!!I Bet you all listen to sunnyday real estate!
Pure epicness…
Great laugh, just what I needed! XD
omg this was amazing. <3
yes I’m late to the game but I don’t care.
that there…is some funny ass shit
well played fellas.
well played!
P-e-r-f-e-c-t.
Mm, cya wil!
Was this a response to that fake situation with the girl quitting her job? If so, I was hoping it would be almost as funny as that, you know, back before we knew it was just a hoax type thing. You guys are fags. And not funny. And by fags, I don’t mean homosexuals. I’m a homosexual and we’re way funnier than this. You’re just stupid. And you probably all smell gross. Fags.
Mr. Savage,
Thank you for being passed out in the bathroom. This story would not have been so epic otherwise.
HAHAHA! this made me laugh!
They are so animated it kills!
I get the idea of copying the “quitting erase-board girl” meme but without a good looking girl the bit loses all of it’s earlier charm.
Darn You Wil Wheaton, you are hot!
Just wanted to let you know that I love this so much that I bookmarked it on the main screen of my iPod and open it frequently for a laugh.
Win
i don’t what you are selling or the aim of this
Isn’t will the guy from “Axis of Anarchy” in “The Guild”?
This was purely humor. i just loved the way each slide had some thing to sya. Awesome!
Is that Adam Savage?
