New to South Park, are we?

Because the world doesn't hate hate, it hates inequality.

There is no excuse for raping anyone, but especially a child. Period.

Pony? I love ponies!

Luckily I had a meeting I absolutely could not get out of. It kept me safe in Burnaby. I wouldn't try getting down there now if you paid me. Also, I don't wish to experience the ambiance of broken glass and burning metal.

I have never in my entire lifetime been so embarrassed to be a Canadian attached to a particular city. And I thought the "Rivers of vomit and urine" era of the Olympics last year was the worst low: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_riots#2011

I am un-proud to have attention drawn to my resident city on this happy occasion. And before you ask, this is the real face of Vancouver coming out. If you visit here, you will see a lot of mentally absent, seemingly flaky happy people, who hide THIS sort of thing inside of them. Is it any...

I don't know about you sods, but I was named after a type of freaking Greek column. I hope your name stories are better than mine.

You know, a colleague and I had this discussion in reference to WoW. A friend of his theorized that nerds get addicted to it because you put in effort and always get something. Since this is in direct opposition to reality, it possibly explains their rampant freakishness at losing accounts and...

Reading the (now locked) discussion about people freaking out, whinging, etc after having their accounts banned from XBL, I was thinking; why do people get so desperate to have their game accounts restored? What type or depth of emotional investment are these hours of strafing around shooting at...
