Sorry, but I lol'ed at "suffocating in their own farts". I know you were being serious, but there's enough schoolkid left in me to lose it when I read that.

I can't imagine how excited the teams are that are working on discovering these exoplanets. One of them is going to find a planet with life on it. I think it's safe to say now that it's a matter of when, not if.

Meanwhile, private VPN vendors are doing jigs as their torrent traffic doubles.

"Nicely worded, Tim. Everything's relative after all. It might dangerous and exploitative, but it's not as bad as our competitors!"

Uh, Skyrim? You know, the FREAKING PC GAME OF THE YEAR, 2011?

"Sorry, everyone, but last year I hired Nicolas Cage's former accountant. The money...it's gone."

Here you go. Paste this on your wall and scream at it for a while instead of us.

We in the States are equally baffled by the oppressive regulations you live under in Europe.

That's a lot of extra volume for something you could get in a compact victorinox swiss army knife. Plus, with it in your pocket, there'd be no sharp edges gouging your leg like this thing would.

Whoever that dude is cannot have a more awesomely and absurdly British name than Benedict Cumberbatch.

I want to know if this is also a PC title. A serious FPS demands serious controls, and the console controller is the Keyboard+Mouse's club-footed step-child.

Where's the brass rocket pack and helmet?

This year, with good behavior.

Booker's a he?

Yep, happening to me, too. Why do hackers insist upon attacking innocents? There's other ways to make a point.

Yep, that was it. Just looked it up: [en.wikipedia.org]

Does anyone remember the old TV series "Masquerade", where different "clans" of vampires ran mafia-like families like the Brouja and Nosferatu? I seem to recall the main character was named "Julian".
