Infantry

On the eight day, God created Infantry. He sayeth "let there be a game fit for Man, who was created in my image, and for me when I am bored" and thusly Infantry rose from the sea of binary code, a testament to divine power and the coolness of developer Harmless Games. But Man became sinful and an asshole (no surprise there), and God decided to destroy what he created. "Man has gone wrong," God said, "and I shall destroy these sinful men and bring about the ruination of their great game." And verily, He flooded the earth for 40 days and 40 nights, and made HG sell Infantry to Sonly Online Entertainment who promptly ruined it on divine order (not that they needed any help though).

Luckily for mankind Noah was allowed to build an ark and save his family and the animals, but God was swift and merciless with Infantry. After SOE completed its task, what remained of the once mighty game was set upon by all manner of demons, hackers, script kiddies, and nade lamers. And when the dust settled, Infantry was leveled, laid low by the hand that rent Sodom and Gomorrah, then banished to the underworld to be lorded over by Satan's assistant Joe for all of eternity.
And that is the story of the rise and fall of the greatest game ever.

beer taxi

When you're happily drinking with friends and rest your eyes for a second at the local pub, and suddenly wake up to find yourself sprawled across the steps of your house or in some alley in the middle of nowhere, then you my friend have just taken a ride in the beer taxi.

Bill Gates

One of the founders of Microsoft and formerly the world's richest man (passed by the founder of Ikea). People like to blame him for everything, because he's rich and part of human nature is blaming rich people for all your problems.
Car won't start?

Got fired from work?

Your candidate got owned in the election?

Blame Bill Gates!! Everyone's doing it, it's the new national pastime.

Windows XP

Fairly decent OS from Microsoft. More stable than most Windows versions, but has a number of privacy and end-user-rights issues that are questionable at best. Like all Windows builds, is often blindly flamed by idiots with no clue what an OS is or how it works, thinking MS sucks but not having any ideas how they would do it better.

Its Fisher-Price looking graphics do however fit in well, considering MS's tech support usually treats you like a toddler.
Its better than Win ME, thats for sure.

paratrooper

Soldier who is trained to jump out of perfectly good airplanes, for the purpose of inserting in enemy territory away from the heavy defenses around national borders and the front lines.
Paratroopers are pretty helpless during the airdrop, but their strength is in putting force in an area that isn't expecting it or prepared to react.

dumbolic

To be so wrapped up in your own Kool-Aid agenda that you have no clue that you are really talking out of your ass. The word was invented by pundit Joe Klien in a rant about how Matt Drudge sucks, but the part of the original article he quoted to support his case actually validated the Drudge headline so Klien was clearly referring to himself.
Did you catch that Senator on TV the other night going on about how earmarks are bad but his own pet projects were special? How dumbolic.
