<Psychofreak> I have a kid (3 yo) with toys that do stuff and/or beep. Easily 100 AA batteries in JUST her toys. (although she does not play with many anymore so they are getting packed up for donation) Funny thing is we got her a wooden train set, no batteries at all, and now almost all the fancy electronic toys are left alone! We will see if this holds true for more than a few weeks.
<Psychofreak> Amazing how much more powerful imagination is than batteries.
<Anonymous Coward> Try telling that to my wife.

My one year old nephew's favorite toys are two stones and a cowrie shell.

[MyOtheHedgeFox]

Make the most of what the game hands you, but do it Cave Johnson style: don't make lemonade with the lemons, burn down the bastard's house with exploding lemons instead.

Now you're thinking with Passages of Golburia.

Basically, you somehow manipulate with the Fourier row or something which is very colourful and addicting. I know a lot of people are into math and science (filthy humanitarian here), so you might enjoy this to a larger extent than I have.

lol, remind me of Progress Quest... or am I missing something here?

[mageykun]

It's kind of like an inverse progress quest. It's still an rpg stripped down to it's basics, with a heavy focus on grinding. The big difference is progress quest cuts out the player, while this requires frenzied clicking and mouse wiggling for an hour. It cuts out game side interactions with the player (descriptions, graphics, plot, etc) instead of player side interactions with the game.

...and I suppose the goal is a little different. Here, the goal is to beat all the bosses. Progress quest is more about the perpetual quest to afford better gear.

Personally I'm not much of that. I find the obligatory emo-ness of many animes VERY annoying. Just like going through a stack of photographs, any ways of peering into our past tends to makes us more sad than happy. I don't think one should really do that often, still things that remind you of ages past (like this video) are sometimes nice imo. A bitter sweet feeling, let's say.

GOOGLE SEARCH FOR "zerg rush"

[Jabberwocky]

That's really kind of fun. Try do a barrel roll, or ASCII art.

[BlackSheep]

...or "askew"

...or "giordano bruno"

You know you play too much console Crawl when you see the Google Zerg rush and the first thing you think is "ooh, pack of orcs and orc warriors".

The Trees
by Philip Larkin

The trees are coming into leaf
Like something almost being said;
The recent buds relax and spread,
Their greenness is a kind of grief.

Is it that they are born again
And we grow old? No, they die too,
Their yearly trick of looking new
Is written down in rings of grain.

Yet still the unresting castles thresh
In fullgrown thickness every May.
Last year is dead, they seem to say,
Begin afresh, afresh, afresh.

[Confidence Interval]

Larkin is often very good. He missed out any mention of spriggan druids making trees attack you, though.

[PerverseSuffering]

Lyrically NSFW (as in "lyrics"). Old as heck, but just... this thing's catchy.

Just... just how did he get Timberlake involved?

[Grimm]

Larkin is often very good. He missed out any mention of spriggan druids making trees attack you, though.

The trees are reaching to attack
And strangle you to painful death.
A spriggan druid cast a spell,
And animated them to fight.

Is there a chance that you will win
Against these trees? No, you are f***ed.
The spriggan's got your number, chief,
And soon your game will reach its end.

Probably only relevant to Americans who lived through the 80's, but just as insane for everyone.

Against these trees? No, you are f***ed.
The spriggan's got your number, chief,
And soon your game will reach its end.

The branches scramble, brambles scratch,
A measly spriggan's will fulfilled:
He waves his hands, your blood is spilled,
Your bar is red, your limbs detach.

The potent plants begin to grab,
Constrict like octopodes. It's plain:
You're screwed; your spirit will remain,
A tepid testament to Tab.

You wield your whip, you fiercely flog -
To no avail. The branded bark
Retaliates - and all is dark:
Begin with Trog, with Trog, with Trog.

(I tabbed some green rats in the L8 spriggan forest on my DrWz. Missed the druid entering the scene, and tab stopped with my HP at 3. Great character down the toilet )

One of the most unusual creations not only in classical music, but simply in music. For some, it is very insightful, for some, revolting, for some, blatantly hilarious.
