    Will Right looks like a child molester?

    I for one, am tired of the Sims franchise. It doesn't seem to want to die. One expansion pack after the other. You would think they'd get the message with the poor popularity of the sims online. Anyway, franchises are the best way to make a quick buck nowadays. Just slap a well known theme on a game or tv series (friends clones)and you are assured at least some kind of audience. Sigh, this proves it, people don't want anything new, just slight variations of the same thing.

    HAHA well done.

    Ya debian should just stick with GNU/Linux their attempts to kiss RMS with Debian GNU/Hurd is just useless and Debian GNU/BSD, well fuck you very much but BSD don't need any stinking GNU tools aiight, well except for GCC, erm, well you know what i mean. A Debian BSD is sooo stupid! BSD systems release stable and up to date version every 6 months to a year while debian releases an old and crusty version ever 2-3 years. Gee should I just use a real BSD os or some gay bastardization of Debian GNU/BSD! That is so fucking gay.

    Just stick to working on Debian GNU/Linux ok dirtbags, before I have grandchildren I'd like to experience this new fangled kde 3 thing that just got released only a short 18 months ago!

    It's good to see that a child actors career hasn't spiraled into oblivion. Had no idea he created the SIM Line amazing, he most have been like 12 when the first in the series came out.

  5. Will Wright, software mogul, dead at 55 by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Troll

    I just heard some sad news on talk radio - Sims creator Will Wright was found dead in the outside hot tub near his alabaster palace this morning. There weren't any more details. I'm sure everyone in the Slashdot community will miss him - even if you didn't enjoy his work, there's no denying his contributions to virtually living life. Truly an American icon.
