I'm sorry, but teamkilling is always funny. Posted by: The Apologist on November 11, 2005 11:42 AM
Don't do the game thingy... WFT is "teamkilling"? Posted by: Madfish Willie on November 11, 2005 12:20 PM
OK, I admit that I played Knights of the Old Republic and fell in love with Balista. So much so I had her play most of the game in her underwear. http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/original/1073488223-00.jpg Do you realize how hard it was to play that game one-handed? God I'm pathetic. Posted by: TomB on November 11, 2005 12:23 PM
"... Over 30". I'm over 60, are all those back in play now? Posted by: Retired Geezer on November 11, 2005 12:37 PM
Nevermind... I'm a dumbass..... Posted by: Madfish Willie on November 11, 2005 12:38 PM
I'm with the Warden. What do #6, #9, and #15 mean, anyway? Posted by: Steven Den Beste on November 11, 2005 12:40 PM
I am taking offense to # 11. Posted by: [DeathBy]Monkey on November 11, 2005 12:44 PM
Hadoken someone as a greeting, complete with hand motions and sound effects. C'mon, that's cool, right? Posted by: slickdpdx on November 11, 2005 12:49 PM
Check out the Urban Dictionary for "teabag." It has to do with nuts. Posted by: rd on November 11, 2005 12:51 PM
I do/have done 6 of the items on this list. I will not reveal which 6, though. I have my dignity. (Although, laughing myself silly over teamkilling is definitely one of them. No way that one's out of bounds.) Posted by: Phinn on November 11, 2005 01:24 PM
Hurray! A Friday geek thread. Confessions: -am way past 30 On the plus side. Did a twelve step program and have been "clean" for 6 months. Now tell me more about this Knights of the Old Republic, doh. Posted by: doc on November 11, 2005 01:24 PM
So where does scream-typing "stfu noOb" fall in? Or "wtf camping!" Posted by: Christopher Cross on November 11, 2005 01:38 PM
I only have this to add: Leeeee-roy illustrates a good way to get your team and yourself killed while acting like a total choad. Pretty funny if you're a gamer. Which I'm not. But it was still funny. Posted by: Monty on November 11, 2005 01:50 PM
Leeeee-roy illustrates a good way to get your team and yourself killed while acting like a total choad. OMFG!!!!one!!! "At least I have chicken." Posted by: S. Weasel on November 11, 2005 02:26 PM

I am pretty damn geeky, yes. I'm surprised I've restrained myself from gushing about the impending release of the XBOX 360... That day will come. Posted by: Harry Callahan on November 11, 2005 03:02 PM
So, 29 No-Nos for Gamers Over 30? Well here's a 30th: 30. Don't be a gamer over 30. Posted by: sandy burger on November 11, 2005 03:36 PM
OK Sandy Burger, admit that YOU are a gamer over 30!! Btw, I'm collecting mini card games for my site. Anybody have any good links? http://www.cardtoss.com Posted by: Liza on November 11, 2005 04:20 PM
OK Sandy Burger, admit that YOU are a gamer over 30!! No. But I am a lamer over 30. Posted by: sandy burger on November 11, 2005 04:33 PM
Maryland wants to make "upskirting" illegal. What's the world come to? Posted by: Steven Den Beste on November 11, 2005 05:02 PM
I must disagree with #9. It just shouldn't be overused. We all know there absolutely are situations where a teabagging is in order and I will continue to issue them as required. Carry On. Posted by: Silk on November 11, 2005 09:55 PM
I have won an argument in a game forum. It involved crafting a post just right that hit nearly everyone's funnybone hard, while making teh lam3 n00b look like a complete idiot, causing him to slink off, never to return. Hero for a day. Heh. Small victories. I'll take 'em where I can. Posted by: Desert Cat on November 11, 2005 11:36 PM
...lol...the only two I admit to doing on a regular basis is the teabag and 'pwnt.' But I usually reserve 'pwnt' with the following tea bag for the n00b campers who don't appreciate the finer aspects of strategy. I like to mix it with a gun salute and a good smack. ;) Posted by: mooseman on November 12, 2005 06:03 PM

George Clooney now looks like Bela Lugosi from Ed Wood
In this "interview," Jake Tapper claims that Clooney writing an op-ed at the instigation of Barack Obama was "brave," and Clooney returns the favor by telling Jake Tapper that "journalists" are brave and irreplaceable. It's the world's least enticing gay porn.
Prepare for a shock: Former (?) Handgun Control, Inc. spokesman Jake Tapper lies about the background of his hard-left political agitator guest, presenting him as merely an "FSU student" and allowing him to claim Republicans have blood on their hands for the recent school shooting
However, D'Onofrio isn't some dispassionate observer. He's not just some random FSU student. It doesn't sound like he was anywhere in the neighborhood of the shooting, either. He was brought on primarily to talk about the politics, but was presented as an FSU student to try and leverage sympathy for his position.
The Pope has died. [Weirddave]
The price of eggs has dropped from an average of $8/dozen to $3.13/dozen but Democrats are claiming Easter eggs prices are up. I guess all of the non- or anti-Christian "fact" checkers in the media are taking the day off, for some reason.
Trump offers Easter wishes
Happy Easter! BTW, I read that this is the first time in years the White House website has offered an Easter prayer. Every other religion and fake religion got promoted by Biden, but not Christianity. Oh, and NPR's Easter story is that "Trump seeks corporate sponsors for Easter egg roll." Obviously every president does this, but this communist propaganda organization only points it out now, after having denied the Biden's family influence-farming operations for a decade.
An idiot congressman tries to get us into a shooting war with Russia! Brian Fitzpatrick represents Pennsylvania... very, very poorly. [CBD]
Trump commented on the Biden Presidency: "Worst administration in our country's history. Jimmy Carter died a happy man. You know why? Because he wasn't the worst president, Joe Biden was."
Murderer in FSU shooting identified; he is the son of a sheriff's deputy who had access to his mother's guns
