ZOMG!
When I was growing up, I had an aweful overbite, that was from sucking my thumb when I was younger I suppose. Freddy Mercury was the first person I ever saw out in public that had a worse overbite and by seeing what he did and how he looked it was the first time I wasn't self-concious about my own "buck teeth".

EvE Offline
I was playing EvE Online and enjoying it somewhat - figuring out the game system - but as I was playing I realized there is a severe imbalance in the game play for new players, including the sales of in game currency by out of game purchasing using real world cash.
So I canceled my subscription.
I know many other games choose a micro payment model and have done even better than their initial monthly charge fees by going "free" + micro payments for in game items, but I think there are many times where this is destructive to the game play. Especially when it comes to play balance against other players.
The game suffers from other issues as well, including a bad attempt at trying to copy Blizzard and other "login portal news and hey-why-don't-you-buy-this!" issues, but I did really enjoy looking at the stars and space simulation.

I'm off FaceBook. What a lousy messaging system they have seem to implemented. Not only that I think they lack any sense of decency in using phrases like "user xyz found you via friendfinder" and other statements, including when I was closing my account "user xyz (with your picture) will miss you! Are you sure...".
I'm pretty sure my friends won't miss me. I'm pretty sure representing the people they showed me as actively missing my account on facebook was a lie. I'm pretty sure I couldn't put up with that damn design another fifteen minutes...

Do I Hafta?
Do I have to go to work?
Do I? No. I'm reminded I probably don't have to get paid, either.
