The point is that the purpose of an emoticon (see, the clue is in the name) was originally just to add some context, like "this is me joking, so don't take it seriously," which is needed in a sterile communications medium like monochromatically monospaced text. The latest incarnations are more "here's a funky thought to punctuate my proportionately less-than-funky text".

Or, more correctly, cruel and far too usual.

I suppose, if you take a detour on the Metropolitan Line, I can take a penalty over the Circle, via Liverpool Street. that way Steve would by stuck at Baron's Court for the duration.

Yes, but the process of transcribing the vortex of imagery that I like to consider as my (chain of) thoughts belies any attempt to consider it as mere "copying".

Well, they are compared to strong nuclear interactions (up above mass-energies of 1TeV, and below mass-energies of 10^15GeV, where strong and electroweak are Grandly Unified).

How would "it all ... be over" if Palpatine didn't have Anakin?

... And made watching them worthwhile.

They do mods...i read up to "no mods for xbox" and i stopped If you have modded your Xbox it is possible to load mods for games.

Bah, I have to keep knocking down all the statues that mobs of adoring fans keep erecting for me.

That's it! The number three is a bad omen!

And Walsh is trying to coerce me into a trip down the District Line (don't deny it!), which of course would leave the game open for you, Steve, to win.

Priests are arguably the most powerful class in the game. I'd never play one, as I have ethical issues with them.

There was a lot of anger in the Security industry when Microsoft kept their Vista kernel design so tightly under wraps from them; I think this may have been adjusted now, though, and it is likely that Microsoft was just trying to get to market before the competition. If a company has a Vista product, then it will have been re-engineered for Vista (unless it's a dodgy company).

Leprechaun? (I never said I was the fairy, I said let's let the fairy clean up. )

Was the animation up to the textual description? Cheers, Bok. But what framerate do you get? (And how does that compare to Legend?)

For the Hog, the Alabaman, Role-Player or Walsh?

Are you calling on the Northern Hemisphere seasonal exception? That hasn't been invoked since the Seven Years' War!

On the positive side, teams with excellent morale often can look upon outsiders in a hostile way; if you prove yourself worthy of inclusion then they initial hostility may well be metamorphosed into a protective loyalty.

Technically, the Sun does orbit around the Earth: just not to the exclusion of the Earth orbiting around the Sun, which can be clearly demonstrated via extra-terrestrial observations as well as being the simplest explanation for terrestrially-observable phenomena. Also, who would like to see Jupiter's magnetosphere? For context, here are Jupiter's rings and innermost satellites, inside Io:

That depends on the books; I have seen a lot of writing that doesn't deserve to be printed ...

Some of those scenes aren't in the original. (I didn't think this was due out yet.) What's it play like, Bok? Is it the same engine as Legend, or a newer, updated, more demanding one?
