Penumbra Black Plague 

Possibly the best horror game on the planet working in five hours (unfortunately) of intelligent gameplay and brilliant story accompanied by a feeling of vulnerability as the only thing you can use is the ability to run from the skeletal monsters that _can and will kill you_. Lacking in some texture detail but excelling in every other aspect including but not limited to atmosphere, brilliant soundtrack, admirable voice acting, compelling story, very interactive physics, psychological destruction, and challenging puzzles, this game is simply amazing.

Orator non penum 

(Latin) Literally, "the speaker has no penis." In rhetoric, an unanswerable comeback to a nominally male opponent who believes in the magical powers of the so-called "logical fallacies" to replace the missing member and thereby to "win" an "argument."
A: Sometimes I wonder if Shakira really is as good as people say she is.
B (triumphantly): Argumentum ad populum!
A: Well met, good sir. However: Orator non penum.
Audience: (Raucous laughter).

A has won the argument.

Word of the Day on October 28, 2026
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.
