Given the poster's username, he was probably thinking of Ernest Rutherford's quote: "Physics is the only real science, the rest are just stamp collecting.":-)
That's pretty impressive. My only bird story is of the parakeet I had when I was young, who was smart enough to open the door of her cage from the inside. I had to keep it tied shut with a wire tie.
The Thought Police aren't coming to kill you, they are coming to enslave you. Feel like running now? No? Did I mention they are IMAGINARY? Now what are you going to do? How do you fight that which is only in your mind?
You're thinking of the Dream Police - they live inside of your head.
I've been wearing glasses with photogrey lenses since I was about 8, so 35 years or so. I've never noticed a problem with them failing to darken in hot weather.
As for myself, I've bought only used CDs for the last 10 years or so (with the exception of Weird Al's and Rush's new stuff - and a couple of CDs purchased directly from local performers).
My movie-going declined very sharply 5 or so years ago when commercials (for shoes, cars, drinks, etc - I'm not talking about coming attractions/trailers) began being played before movies. I began going to a restaurant-theater which didn't do that, but they're dead to me now too since they recently began playing loud voice-over advertising before the movie starts. So, I'll probably never set foot in a cinema again. I do rent stuff through Netflix.
I listen to probably 50% music and 50% NPR on the radio. The RIAA companies don't really benefit from me doing this.

Also, in paintball, bushes are cover :-).
You're right, I don't know what I was thinking - I shouldn't have included Warcraft in that.
If anything, Rogue-likes inspired Diablo, which in turn has influenced Warcraft, which begat WoW.
In keeping with the spirit of Borland nostalgia from another story:
I got either Angband or Moria, I forget which, to compile and run in TurboC under DOS back in 1989 or so. So many hours gone...
My personal nemesis was poltergeists and other invisible monsters; I never seemed to get See Invisibility.
Or Quarterdeck...
That's "The Cross-Time Engineer" series, by Leo Frankowski.

If your computer thrusts IE8 upon you with a "By your command", then you should start worrying.
Worst. Thread. Ever.
This kind, of course.
You're thinking too small. When dealing with IE6, to be safe you should smash the planet between two inertialess planets with opposing inert orbits.
And another innocent poster has his "< - >" eaten.
What's the current dollargold piece conversion rate?

Reminds me of a .sig I used to see on Usenet:
ESCHEW OBFUSCATION!
ESPOUSE ELUCIDATION!

I'm telling you why:

Well, if Khan was a genius and his tactical planning was limited to two dimensions, who are the game designers to try to work in 3?

Someone's taking Time Cube too seriously. :-)
Don't worry. Alles klar, Herr Kommissar.
At a gathering at a friend's house many years ago, the cat was sitting on the table, licking his own genitalia.
Friend1: "God, I wish I could do that."
Friend2: "You should probably start out scratching him behind the ears and see where it goes."
I've rarely laughed so hard.
Oh, no - not another nacho vs. cheeto flame war! :-(.
If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.
