Subject: Someone explain Ling Ling's head

A cornered fox is more dangerous than a jackal.

And from FOX, two phantoms were born.

..I don't get it, was it one of Bungie's pet dogs that died and they kept it in a jar or is it just some weird joke?

Old school Bungie, born and raised,
In the Septagon is where I spend most of my days.
Relaxin', maxin', posting all cool,
Talking about Halo, life and some school.
Got in one little argument, and the mods got scared,
they said "You're gonna get banned and your member title'll be bare!"

Ling Ling's head was missing. Ling Ling's head was found.

What I'd like to know is whether or not there is a headless dog being referred to as Nilg Nilg somewhere on Earth.

Please stop complaining about the 'death of a loved one' it's my job. They probably deserved it anyways. Here's a warning, if you keep making pentagrams out of the neighbors livestock I will personally come to your house and kill everyone you love. Now leave me alone, I got to get back to work.

Heck, I'll be the one to do it.

Progo, Shrew, Chryso, all are the same.

Ling Ling was left to the ownership of one of Bungie's founders. The guy shared a dorm with a biology major or something like that and when he left, he forgot a pickled dogs head in the fridge. Bungie adopted it.

Long ago, in Chicago, IL there lived a man who went by the name of Jason Jones. Jason's upstairs neighbor had an evil little bastard chihuahua named Ling-Ling that was annoying as crap. Jason would sit awake all night -- not because of the dog... just because he didn't sleep. Ever. But still, that dog was annoying as crap, man! Ling-Ling would not stop barking.

Jason Jones had had enough. One night, while the world ( all except that damn dog!) slept, he climbed the fire escape to his neighbor's apartment and killed the pooch. He cut off its head to make sure that if it did come back as a zombie (a real problem that we all should take into account when making decisions), it wouldn't be able to bark and annoy him from beyond the grave. He preserved the head in a pickle jar and kept it as a trophy.

In his new-found solace, Jones was able to concentrate on his life-long goal: to create a kick-ass video game (Halo) and head up a gaming company (Bungie).

Years later, with Bungie growing as a superpower in the world [of gaming], dissident factions began arising to challenge the authority of our great dictator, Jason Jones. Many tried... they all failed. All, that is, until a man by the name of Harold Ryan came about. Ryan wasn't like the other challengers. Ryan wielded The Shaft. After a long and drawn out battle that lasted like, 4 whole minutes, Ryan managed to give Jones The Shaft and emerged the victor.

Jones was bested. But still managed to get in the last word. As he left to pursue other endeavors, he was heard muttering that Ryan was a, "-blam!- -blam!- little -blam!- who -blam!- -blam!- -blam!- potatoes!" Of course, no one knows what he meant... he actually talks like that.

Ryan, to ensure his new reign of terror would never be challenged, placed Jones' prized Ling-Ling trophy in a cabinet at Bungie studios to ward off potential mutiny-ers. There it remains: forever a monument to the supremacy of our overlord, Harold Ryan. The one who bested Jason Jones in combat.

We should know better, because we are better.

Skittles pretty much covered it. Also, when it is broken, Owt Gnop! will be released.

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

I think it once belonged to a Bungie employee that was in medical school, and left it with Bungie when he left.
But I have no idea what the truth is, go ask Bungie.

Basicaly someone had made a preserved head dog and left it behind. At some point a Bungie employee (or soon-to-be) discovered it and kept it.

There is a page on this site that explains it, but I can't find it.

It has long been an office joke that when some unlucky sap destroys the jar, Bungie will make Gnop 2.

There's a brief section on Ling-Ling here, if that's what you meant.

Ling-Ling

Dog's head in a jar. Has mystical significance. But it's too nasty to think about. Especially if you think about opening the jar, and drinking the head-water down in one mighty draft. DANGER! Do not juxtapose Tijuana Mama with Ling Ling! When the jar containing Ling Ling finally breaks, as it must, Bungie will make a sequel to Gnop!


No, that isn't it. Somewhere on the site is a page that goes in-depth into the history of the head.
