A term coined by Sony Online Entertainment; specifically, the developers of the now-defunct MMORPG Star Wars Galaxies. SOE claimed that they were attempting to make the game more "star-warsy" (that is, similar to what is portrayed in the movies) when they instituted the CU (Combat Upgrade) and NGE (New Game Enhancements) early in the game's lifespan; however, these "upgrades" only resulted in making all non-combat professions and skills essentially useless, thereby ruining the in-game economy, as well as leading to thousands of anachronistic Jedi roaming around the galaxy at the time of the Galactic Civil War, less than twenty years after they were supposed to have been wiped out by the Empire.
SWG Player A: Why have you made Jedi a starting profession? There were no Jedi at this time in the movies.
SOE: We wanted to make the game more star-warsy.
SWG Player B: I'm a crafter, and your NGE has essentially made my profession useless. Why do you not consider non-combat professions important?
SOE: We wanted to make the game more star-warsy.

The existence of warning labels is proof that Darwin was right, this sticky piece of paper keeps Americans from going extinct.
(Since most ACME props lack warning labels, the coyote has a pretty rough time.)

Get the warner vegas mug.Fates Warning was founded as a heavy metal band, but after a few albums, their progressive rock tendencies started to emerge. Based in Connecticut, USA, the band's current lineup consists of Jim Matheos (Guitar), Ray Alder (Vocals) Joey Vera (Bass), and Mark Zonder (Drums).
Their first three albums are best known for lead singer John Arch's unusual vocal approach, and the lyrics deal mainly with fantasy themes. John Arch left after the third album and a new vocalist Ray Alder joined the band. Thereafter the lyrics took a more introspective turn. Their later works (post 1989) go more in a progressive rock direction.
While retaining elements of their metal heritage, Fates Warning grew increasingly complex, with much longer tracks and interesting interwoven melodic elements added after they developed a progressive edge. They merged their love of Yes and Rush, by combining elements of pure metal, classically inspired crescendos and interludes with jazz fusion like chops. Fates Warning has been largely responsible for the infusion of progressive thinking into heavy metal music, despite never attaining mainstream appeal, but a loyal following amongst prog fans.
Fates Warning now has 12 studio albums to their name, namely:
Night on Brocken (1984)
The Spectre Within (1985)
Awaken the Guardian (1986)
No Exit (1988)
Perfect Symmetry (1989)
Parallels (1991)
Inside Out (1994)
Chasing Time (compilation) (1995)
A Pleasant Shade of Gray (1997)
Still Life (live) (1998)
Disconnected (2000)

Get the Fates Warning mug.A gigantic rotund man that tends to be a suckup to anyone who is his superior and will stab anyone in the back to make himself look better or get ahead. He is hated and dis-trusted by anyone who know him and is really a true weasil. He is a cherry picker and tends to borrow other people's ideas only to make them appear as his own, and his superiors are the only people that don't have him figured out. He is a disgusting human being who pays strippers for favors obviously because thats the only way he'll get any action, Realistically I bet his own wife can't even stand him. He has zero integrity and kharma is aching to catch up to him.
