The thing that annoys me is when someone ELSE posts my picture on the internet. It takes a community to keep an individual safe, and the facebook community is quite security inept.

man, I must have spent a whole summer in halo 2 superbouncing and rocketlauncher-sword zooming (I forget what we called that) to see where I could get on maps. I hated it when people did that in ranked matches though.
I think we do these things because it's a new way to play a familiar game. Games get old and new games can be fun - especially when all your friends are already playing them - and you're tired of the "real" game.
Take a game like halo: standard shoot-em-up. Now you're practically free-running with superhero-like glitches flying you around the map juuuuust short of that one ledge. *runs around and tries it again*
It's just a matter of time before someone mentions machinima. Machinima is awesome. Most noteable is Red vs. Blue (another halo ref, I'm sorry) - a fan machinima that's been going for YEARS and even got it's most recent full-length film put into CANON. I couldn't believe that when I heard it. You know what, I just tried to get a citation and couldn't (going off of what my friend said). Who can confirm/deny that claim? I'd appreciate it.
Tricks and machinima. I think game developers (at least at Bethesda(spelling) and Rockstar games) are quickly realizing that sandboxy games are an easy way to let the gamers' imaginations add 100s of playing hours.
Now's the part where you get hit on. They'll get their ass kicked for THAT. As gbarules said,

True statement. My God, discrete math has scarred me!
The bottom line is that it's unprofessional to hold up others at work when you want to take a vacation. Either he's hoping to get a promotion, momentary lapse of reason, or the company-who-must-not-be-named has kidnapped him.
I wonder who gets all three of those refs...

The irony of your username is hilarious.
Do what makes you happy, man. If you wanted to do management like you said, then go for it. The only reason people want money is for happiness. Getting happiness out of the job is a bonus.
