Some everquest player committed suicide about 6-8 months ago. It got worse when his mom sued Verrant/SOE (and lost).
The 'toilet' joke is a referrence to the guy who died in the Korean Internet cafe a few days ago... He had been gaming for like 80+ hours straight and they found him dead on the toilet of the establishment.
They are all labled as to what the basis of the information is. There are basically 4 types: "Confirmed", "Unconfirmed", "Personal Account", and "Urban Legend".
I will still stick to my point. If you wanted to lose weight, you would. An hour a day? That's decent, but not much. Is it truly excercise? Are you really eating as healthily as you could be?
No one ever said it wasn't starcraft. It's a game in the starcraft universe for sure. But it's not "Starcraft 2", which by all accounts should and WILL be another RTS. It's just too soon for them to release another RTS to compete with WC3.
No, that game is under way. A few years ago Blizzard was working on an... *cough* animated adventure *cough* game that got canned, called Warcraft Adventures.
Q: Will there be a StarCraft II? When?
A: Although we have not made any announcements and do not have a development or release timeline, we do fully intend to revisit the world of StarCraft on PC at some point in the future.

They are developing Starcraft: Ghost for the PS2, XBox, as well as the cube. It's not really a Microsoft conspiracy then, is it? It's better than their normal games which are released only to Windows PCs and Macs (2 architectures 3).
Warcraft Adventures or something like that. It was supposed to be an RPG/Action type of game featuring a young orc. They ended up using a lot of the storyline in WC3.
You could just make millions by writing a book to get Americans to stop eating Twinkies and McDonalds. On my college campus, every day I see fat people and skinny people. I swear to god the fat ones are always carring some horrible "food" like McDonalds or a candy bar or a shake. People are fat because they want to be, and then they go and cry about it.
aha! But that metaphor doesn't quite fit -- it implies that two people were sitting there at once at brought their nodes up at the same time. This situation is better modeled as follows: one guy is sitting there with his finger extended, and someone else comes along later and touches it.

Did you mean, a "Brave GNU World"? I'm sorry Mr. Huxley, but it's just so appropriate.

if you still find Q3A fun, I'm surprised you haven't died from staring at your hamster go around in his wheel. Or... maybe going around in your own.

He's right. That's blatant plagiarism, man. Don't make a habit of that. It could get you killed, or worse.
That's funny, since it was designed as a teaching language.
