29 No-Nos for Gamers Over 30Shamelessly stolen from Joystiq: 1. Participate in LAN parties with minors 11. Choose a gamer handle including any form of the words “hell,” “killer,” “death,” or ”-inator” posted by Harry Callahan at 11:00 AM
CommentsI'm grateful that I understood very little of that. I must be doing something right. Posted by: The Warden on November 11, 2005 11:19 AM
Oh yeah, well.... http://picard.ytmnd.com/ Picard would so pwn Chuck Norris and you all know it! Posted by: isayalotofthings on November 11, 2005 11:38 AM
Challenging Ace for the geek of the year award, Harry? Posted by: JFH on November 11, 2005 11:40 AM
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

Somebody should write a book about the greatest drinking stories of O'Toole, Burton, Harris, and Caine. One of my faves was Richard Harris went on a six week bender in the South of France without telling wifey. Upon return, she's screaming, and he simply replied "why didn't you pay the ransom"?
