About staction figures

Last August, when I reviewed Masters of the Universe Snout Spout, I pointed out how stupid the phrase "staction figure" (short for "static action figure") is. And yet people are still using it. Shame on them.

But now, the webcomic Penny Arcade has published a strip that (with a few textural modification to the first panel) adequately expresses how I feel about the term:

So much hate. SO MUCH.
