Or that when you're not the one cheating, you trust your partner.
It's only in retrospect that you can see how everything had one, simpler, explanation. It just didn't make sense at the time.

By placing this virus into Monsanto's Family-Friendly (TM) products, we ensure that a robust resistance to viruses is present not only in our corn, but in the very bodies of the children you love -- and Monsanto love -- so dearly. We've shown that this genetic profile is safe in the lab, safe in the field, and safe in the human body.
Monsanto. Family Friendly. (TM)

No, this was redlit on the geek tab at fark.
Today, I want to cut somebody.
I'm in. Let's "hack" something.
And finally...real geeks don't exercise.
A real geek will understand that without regular exercise, their brain will not run at optimal speeds and efficiency.
Being sedentary is how you underclock your brain and reduce your lifespan.
As a separated guy with two kids, they make games for kids too.
"Ready to pwn some boglins, Dad?"
This is really, really interesting.
I haven't had the flu. Not ever. I've got two dehumidifiers running full time to keep my house at 60% humidity. I pull several gallons of water out of the air every day. With them off (if I forget to empty the tanks before I leave for work) it'll creep up to 90% humidity.
...and that dinosaurs were vegens until the apple incident.
Don't you dare drag vegans into this.
I also totally want my cell -- which is linked to my real name, credit card, and address -- to be required to log in to post something snarky on Slashdot.
They can put their phone on silent or buzz, and will do so. Jamming all phones so nobody can get any calls is inexcusable and dangerous. If it goes off, it takes just a few moments to head outside to take the call.
Anyway, there's something to be said for a job where when someone asks you what you do you can reply, "Me? I'm the guy 9-1-1 calls for help."
I meant members of parliament, but let's say you were a military policeman watching a movie when someone attacked the US.
They'd want you at the base PDQ.
It was a long space strategy game, and instead of ganking the huge fleet everyone else was attacking, I went zig instead and wiped out the home planet of the guy with the most victory points. I had quietly upgraded my ships to go further than anyone else, so it was seriously out of nowhere.
They're illegal for good reason.
Perhaps you've never had an important call before. One of the jobs I interviewed for was Communication Engineer for the Ambulance Service. That job required 24/7/365.24 on-call duties because
when 911 stops working, it has to get the fuck up fucking fast.
Sometimes doctors go home, sometimes MPs will go to a movie.
Point taken.
My Board Game Geek badge says "RANDOM TACTICS".
Confuse, deflate, conquer. It's worked very well for me. Nobody can anticipate your moves if you're not even sure what you're going to do next.
I've actually had one game where everyone else at the table just stopped, stared at the board, and one guy said quietly, "I really wasn't expecting you to do that."
HOST SYSTEM NOT RESPONDING, PROBABLY DOWN. DO YOU WANT TO WAIT? (Y/N)
