The Assassin’s Creed Includes a Lot of Dickery Than I Realized
If you’ve played the Assassin’s Creed games, you know the general Creed of the assassins: hide in shadows, protect the freedom of mankind, kill people who need killin’, yadda yadda. But, as this “Assassin’s Creed in real life” video aptly demonstrates, the Creed also includes things such as: walk and climb wherever you want, invade people’s personal space, sneak up behind them and shove tomahawks in their faces, push them out of the way, and basically, do whatever you want with worrying about how it annoys anyone around you. The Templars may have a point here, is all I’m saying. Thanks to Will S. for the tip! (Via Kotaku)

Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others.
