Yeah! Get some roomates who play StarCraft instead, that ought to get you som peace and quiet.

You don't "measure" your birthday, your birthday is a date and you measure your age by the passing of time. Yes, I did fill in "years old" because when you leave something out of a sentence, you've got to expect to be able to fill in the norm or you fail at communication. What's he suppoed to turn, 6 birthdays? 6 double rainbows?

It's a joke, but the joke is flawed in much the same way as saying "See you in a year" instead of "see you next year" at a new years eve party is flawed. I actually had several guys telling me "See you in a thousand years" december 31st 1999.

A year is a period of time, not the occurrence of a specific date.

It didn't fail, it worked perfectly for five years. Surgery adjusts the current state of the eyes, but your eyes may continue changing the same way your body does during your lifetime. That is why it's recommended that your vision has been stable - that is, you have had the same set of glasses without your vision getting worse - for at least two years. Normally, vision degradation over time follows an S-curve and flattens out after a couple of years. Only then does it make sense to consider laser eye surgery.

Imagine a body builder getting a tattoo on his chest. Then he stops training, muscles turns into fat and the tattoo starts looking like nothing at all. Did the tattoo "fail"? Your friend seems to have picked an appropriate time, but his body changed. One just needs to be aware of that, you can't put the blame on the surgery.

Ok, but BESIDES Alien Swarm, Borderlands, Left 4 Dead, Left 4 Dead 2, Magicka, Serious Sam HD First and second encounter, Sol Survivor, Call of Duty World at War, Rainbow Six Vegas, Rainbow Six Vegas 2, Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light, Shank, Deathspank, Trine and Resident Evil 5... WHAT have the Rehashes Of Manshoots And Needforspeeds ever done for US?

Close, it's the vertical lines. Hence the 800 pixel width of the screen is divided in two: 400 pixels per eye.
