"Pay to play" games... (seriously, why pay money for the game, and then pay again to actually play it :S - it's not like you have a choice or something)
Something tells me you don't understand the cost of running the servers and the amount of content developed for games like World of Warcraft, the money doesnt appear out of thin air, selling copies of the game without a subscription fee would never upkeep WoW, and it would end up relying on micro transactions and have no or very few updates.
Guild Wars is my most favorite MMO of all time, and it seems to do fine without monthly fees :)

- as a matter of fact, it is so successful that a sequel is coming, and that doesn't have monthly fees either ;)
It's also about a hundreth the size of Warcraft and relies on instanced maps rather than player interaction (and before you say it, I don't give a shit that you hate people and are glad you can play on your own, MMORPGs are designed to be played with other people)

OT - The Numpad AND the number bar on the same keyboard. I... I don't understand why there's a need for two...

Brand value. Both stated and independently perceived.

To the person above me. You're seeing it wrong - it's the symbol bar, with numbers on it as a bonus. The bonus being the default state is insignificant.

snuggie, the backwards ass-robe
I have to agree with you, and I didn't even think of it as a backwards robe! But it really is! That is just so dumb!

Also, I'd have to say putting a camera on everything is dumb. Making everything music/movie/game/phone/texting compatible is dumb.

I'd say shoe umbrellas are pretty dumb, and pointless, and retarded, and stuff. Take a look for yourself and imagine trying to not looking and feeling like a complete tool wearing them.

The Pen!

It's a pencil that you can't erase, runs out and leaks everywhere, it also can't work in space! Why do we use it?
actually I believe they made a pen that can work in space

The thing that holds your bagel for you while you cut it. This is despite the fact that I cut my left middle finger while trying to cut through a frozen bagel. But see, I learned my lesson, let the bagel thaw first.

NASA spending thousands on a pen that would work in space.
But realising that a bic pen already works in space.
That's a myth, NASA was using pencils, however, an independent company developed pens that would work in space, and approached NASA with the final product. Due to the fact that a broken pencil tip can cause a lot of grief in space, as well as the danger of flammable wood, NASA accepted the pen, I believe that Roskosmos uses them as well nowadays.

I have already been called out on this, I mean without having to spend thousands of dollards on making a pen that works in space.

I'm tired of all these people complaining about P2P games. YOU SAVE MONEY BY PLAYING THEM.

Most people who play WoW play ONLY WoW. Let me do some 1st grade math for you here.

WoW = 10 dollars/month
New game = 50-60 dollars (I believe, I'm not American, please correct me)

Most gamers will need a new game atleast every two months (talking about GAMERS here, people who play for atleast 3-4 hours every day).

Over the course of two months:

WoW: 10x2 = 20 bucks
Other game: 50-60 bucks. Average = 55 dollars

55-20 = 25 dollars.

So by playing other games instead of playing just WoW, you're actually SAVING 25 dollars every two months.


Also: I don't like presliced bread. They slice it way too thin. I think it's to sell more ham and cheese or whatever.
