I always wondered where that image came from! But… does that mean some kind of time travel was involved? I will assume yes!

    It's amazing what a good camera filter can do.
    An interesting 'turn' of events too.

  2. ArmyOfMidgets on October 17th, 2010 4:59 pm

    Guess you could say it just…

    *puts on shades*

    popped on someone's head.

    YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

  3. Flamerider on October 17th, 2010 4:59 pm

    Ehhh.
    You're getting there, but the pun isn't showing.

  4. ArmyOfMidgets on October 17th, 2010 5:01 pm

    I know, i probably could come up with a better excecution, but i wanted to be the first CSI joke here really fast, you could even say i didn't….

    Handle it right.

  5. Flamerider on October 17th, 2010 5:06 pm

    I would have tried for a CSI joke but I was a bit…

    *puts on shades*

    Under pressure!

    --
    And as a result I felt I wouldn't do so well either, better quality over quantity.

  6. AquaLink on October 17th, 2010 5:08 pm

    so…does this mean gabe = future francis?

  7. Dr.Panda on October 17th, 2010 5:11 pm

    Highlight of the video: Rochelle getting punched

  8. Flamerider on October 17th, 2010 5:11 pm

    *turns valve*
    *Chocolate Minstrels pour out of Coach's nose*

  9. ArmyOfMidgets on October 17th, 2010 5:12 pm

    Tell that to Courage Kratos.

  10. Flamerider on October 17th, 2010 5:25 pm

    +1 because that genuinely made me laugh a little.

  11. AuraMaster on October 17th, 2010 5:32 pm

    I hate my glands.

  12. AuraMaster on October 17th, 2010 5:37 pm

    Looks like Coach found a new way

    *shades*
    …to get Tanked.

    YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH!!

  13. XPengooX64 on October 17th, 2010 5:39 pm

    Propane… TAAAAAAAANK!

  14. Leo E. on October 17th, 2010 5:40 pm

    One-Tank survivor apocalypse.

  15. Mr Plen on October 17th, 2010 6:05 pm

    *turns valve*
    *Commence One-Man Cheeseburger apocalypse*

  16. Zyquux on October 17th, 2010 6:10 pm

    In the context of the video: O_o

  17. Ryu_Bonkosi on October 17th, 2010 6:40 pm

    There was a -1 troll around here. I'll help.

  18. Hakokoro on October 17th, 2010 6:49 pm

    that is just stupid…

    Who the hell uses a pistol against a Tank?That is what you get when you dont save the ammo,N00B.

  19. Paulrus-Keaton? on October 17th, 2010 6:52 pm

    *turns valve*
    *Coach's eyes flash*
    BEEPBEEPBEEPBEEP

  20. Paulrus-Keaton? on October 17th, 2010 6:52 pm

    I hate exercise.

    Okay that was mean. Oh well.

  21. Crazysam10 on October 17th, 2010 6:55 pm

    A valve in the back of Coach's head.

    You know Francis… doesn't hate this.

  22. Alpar on October 17th, 2010 7:24 pm

    So you're telling me that guy in the logo is Coach and not Gabe Newell's skinny black cousin?

  23. Sr_Pantalones on October 17th, 2010 7:32 pm

    Now here's a question that I guarantee is on everyone's minds… what happens when you twist the valve?

  24. PewnyPL on October 17th, 2010 7:49 pm

    Episode 3 release date: +1 month

  25. DM1293 on October 17th, 2010 8:44 pm

    Here's a +1 for winning.

  26. DM1293 on October 17th, 2010 8:45 pm

    WE DO NOT SPEAK OF THAT HERE.

  27. DM1293 on October 17th, 2010 8:49 pm

    Did I ever tell you bout the time Coach threw a Molotov at some propane tanks and then he wound up as a logo for a popular video game company? It was just like this time in Team Fortress when the Soldier blew up a Sentry Gun and a valve ended up in the Engineer's eye…speakin of which, d'yall know what it means to "Suck the Crockets"? Cause I came down to 2fort once with Pyro and he didn't know…And, I mean, it ain't nothin bad…its about gibbin…

  28. AuraMaster on October 17th, 2010 9:27 pm

    *turns valve, hears music*
    *keeps turning valve, jack pops out of Coach's head*

  29. CdiGanon on October 17th, 2010 9:28 pm

    Looks like that tank just felt some
    -sunglasses-
    pro-pain

    YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

  30. tmotom on October 17th, 2010 9:28 pm

    Looks like coach…. is a little screwed up!
    YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  31. tmotom on October 17th, 2010 9:29 pm

    Why would francis take a picture of coach's ass? Homo.

  32. AuraMaster on October 17th, 2010 9:30 pm

    Not that we haven't already pushed it back to the year 3000 by now.

  33. AuraMaster on October 17th, 2010 9:32 pm

    Ellis, can't this wait?

    He turns white.

  36. Sir_Nox on October 17th, 2010 9:57 pm

    Yeah, it was Gabe taking out his frustrations for the above posters.

  37. Sir_Nox on October 17th, 2010 9:59 pm

    What the hell is this? Everyone knows the logo is Gabe the day he slipped and fell into his chocolate swimming pool after hitting his head on the hot-fudge valve.

  38. th3l4st0ne on October 17th, 2010 10:05 pm

    Wait, 5 survivors? Then that would mean…
    THAT FRANCIS IS A BLOODY SPHA!!!!!

  39. Zyquux on October 17th, 2010 10:16 pm

    Or defending the L4D2 survivors on The Passing.

  40. Illius_Nakarou on October 17th, 2010 10:19 pm

    He obviously doesn't know how to sell propane and propane accessories

  41. Illius_Nakarou on October 17th, 2010 10:22 pm

    TAAAAAAAAAAANNNNKKKKON PUNCH!!!!!!

  42. Judgment on October 17th, 2010 10:35 pm

  43. Deep_Thought on October 17th, 2010 10:36 pm

    [turns valve]
    [cue Gabe Newell trollface]

    DAMN EPISODIC CONTENT!

  44. Neentendow on October 17th, 2010 10:38 pm

  47. Frankenstrat247 on October 17th, 2010 10:40 pm

    criminy, no wonder the e-peen is so low

  48. Missinko009 on October 17th, 2010 10:41 pm

    I think you've got a screw loose… (XD)

  49. Frankenstrat247 on October 17th, 2010 10:41 pm

    False, you need to insert a quarter first.

  50. Deep_Thought on October 17th, 2010 10:41 pm

    with the back of his head?

  51. Missinko009 on October 17th, 2010 10:44 pm

    Trolls want to cause the most excruciating pain…

  54. A_Creative_Name on October 17th, 2010 11:26 pm

    *Turns valve*

  55. A_Creative_Name on October 17th, 2010 11:36 pm

    I hate myself.

  56. meinmattias on October 17th, 2010 11:54 pm

    Oh, Doctor.

  57. meinmattias on October 17th, 2010 11:58 pm

    Seems as if Coach is…

    *Fires on shades*

    …a bit wound up!

    BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

  58. AquaLink on October 18th, 2010 12:11 am

    prices went up. it's dollar now. and your chances are slimmer because it's in the form of a prize grabber machine

  59. AquaLink on October 18th, 2010 12:11 am

    why is this comment not first?

    *edit*
    nvm

  60. A_Creative_Name on October 18th, 2010 1:04 am

    It always seems he gets so wound up to feel so let down.

  61. Curious on October 18th, 2010 1:19 am

    What’s that sound effect when you mouseover the ‘replay’? hahahaah i want it! :D

  62. DM1293 on October 18th, 2010 3:47 am

    Thats the old passage to Courage Kratos…we don't go there anymore.

  63. DM1293 on October 18th, 2010 3:49 am

    He's covered Zombie Apocalypses, y'know.

  64. BasketGT on October 18th, 2010 4:10 am

    You are so smart and witty for posting such comments here. I hope to see your incredible mind put more amazing words on this site.

  65. mckillyoface on October 18th, 2010 7:44 am

    And you have to buy a key to unlock the gasoline covered shell that they come in.

  66. Kevvo on October 18th, 2010 1:36 pm

    "Did I ever tell y'all about the time my friend Coach got a valve stuck in his skull? Yeah, we was out fightin zombies, and Coach had a brilliant idea of throwin' a molotov at the biggest of 'em, except he also kinda blew up some gas tanks in the process. Anyway, one of them exploded near him, and the valve on it lodged itself into the back of his head, though it was cool, it was all non-lethal like. Our new friend Francis thought it was so cool, he took a picture of it. Last I saw, he was sellin it to some fat feller…don't know who he was, but all he kept sayin was "I'm Gabe Newell" and "Uhhh, no." Come to think of it, I don't know if Coach has gotten that valve outta his head yet, and I dont think anyone told him 'bout the photo…"

    (Notices that DM1293 beat me to the punch) FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-

  67. AuraMaster on October 18th, 2010 1:57 pm

    Yep.

    "WUBUBUBUBU!"

    -Turns valve-
    -Water hydrant nearby bursts open-
    -Turns valve opposite direction-
    -Hydrant dies down-

    Interesting…
