Is Newgrounds inspired or based on the military?

We are basically the internet's entertainment soldiers, living in the underground remnants of the golden age of independent media. When a playa's caught tripping we show them what's up, daddy. We slice them some hos and then we put them back there on tha street. They make us some lettuce and we reward em with cheese.

Get the deal, homie?

While Newgrounds does contain some military themes, it is nothing like any military I've ever been apart of/witnessed.

Yes, mate. Before starting the site Tom Fulp was a Space Marine. He used to work for the UAC. Eventually he met demons from hell who told him to create newgrounds. The PTSD was too much and he made a tank logo because he wanted to share his shellshocked military memories to everyone subliminally on every page of his website.

I thought it was supposed to be more dystopian or post-apocalyptic themed. That's what the color scheme makes me think of anyway, as well as the destroyed buildings in the background.

Doesn't newground's history tie loosely to the neo-geo or something

I could be totally wrong about this.

No, I would give the butterfly more of a danger factor seeing it is a small target and has the ability to fly.

Yeah you have a point. I'd say he's more like....a big amorphous blob with a cap gun and horribly outdated military gear.

If Newgrounds was based around the military, we'd all have been taken out in 2 seconds.
