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

Lost Seventies Mystery Click: The Darkest Song Ever Recorded?
I think Professor of Rock (on YouTube) claimed this song was so upsetting that people used to pull over to the side of the road when it came on the radio. It's about a fatal plane crash, but obviously it suggests a fatal car crash too, which could wig out a driver. It's like one of those nasty 70s anti-war body horror movies. Not for the squeamish. I'm not even going to post the lyrics because they're upsetting too.
