Default Computer Cults

Today's Post brought to you by: Pimpburger!

"Visit our new family location: PIMPLAND! While Mom and/or Dad visit our wonderous 1-hour hotel rooms, the kids can be entertained by our very own puppetshow! Now featuring "Helen the Hoe", "Barbie da bitch", "Paulie the Pissed-Off Pimp" and the ever popular "John Smith"!
------------------------------
COMPUTER CULTS!

Yes, a new cabal has risen. five new cults involving dark and evil powers... they are as follows:

1. The Follows of Macintosh:

The Followers of Macintosh started early, and tend to appeal to people who need to feel superior for no good reason. They tend to believe stability should be handed to them. They also believe they are the best simply because of style.

Traits; Fanatical, relentless.
Strength: Charisma
Weaknesses: Membership dues are high
Motto: Think Different, or thou shalt be slain!

2. "Gates" of Hell

A very dangerous cult following a demented and evil demigod. Employing massive reasources and power, he
exerts demonic will over his followers. The "Gates" of Hell cult
currently has the most members, and will immediately
challenge a "Follower of Macintosh" on sight (or site, depending).

Traits: Anything to win
Strength: Numbers
Weaknesses: Every man for himself...
Motto: We own you ALL!

3. Penguins of the Underworld

One of the most organized of cults, but it's follower base is small as well as scattered between the different beliefs of the Penguin... Dreams of world domination are deemed attainable,
but they're still a small fish in a big pond.

Traits; Logically... we're superior.
Strengths: Stable followers.
Weaknesses: Small, scattered following. The "Gates" of Hell have been trying to wipe out this resistance for years.
Motto: World Domination through World Cooperation!

4. The Code of Unix

An old and powerful cult. The followers usually sneer at most of the others as using the bastard offspring of their power.
The Gates of Hell stand in awe of these people, the Followers of Macintosh have tried to return to the "One God" and The Penguins of the Underworld have been deemed a splinter faction.

Traits: Arrogance in the face of the "enemy"
Strengths: Old, stable roots
Weaknesses: No tolerance for new ideas
Motto: "You use what... WAHAHAHAHAHAAA!"

5. The Masters of DOS

An ancient sect, built back in the 80s. This cult will NOT tolerate new ideas, and does NOT forgive ANY mistakes.
The "Masters of DOS" has a VERY small following as most of it's members joined The "Gates of Hell". DOS cultists are
ridiculed for their antique beliefs, but they hold their head high as they can fix problems that the others can't even begin to understand.

Traits: Tend to see things in Black and White
Strengths: Able to get to the root of things quickly
Weaknesses: Does not adapt to change... they have been abandoned for support.
Motto: "You'll be back... You'll ALL be back!"


TERM OF THE DAY: BLOG

Blogs are those on-line diary deals. Unlike your actual diary, it already has emoticons, legible handwriting and the like. Still, havin' your life on the internet is like spray-painting your own name on the proverbial bathroom wall, as usually several people can see it.

Not to be a prick or anything, that is funny, but I don't think someone had their caffeine.

Hmmm... this gives me an idea on ressurecting a thread I did months ago.

Ben, you're being too literal. What you just experienced was a "Classic" Samurai post.

If Friends can do it, why can't he?

Give a pimp a break ben - Darksam is merely trying to protect the environment by recycling.
Do you know how many electrons it takes to craft a new article ?

LOL, dammit... thought enough time had passed...

But yeah, I've been out of caffeine for about two days now... I passed out for roughly ten hours last night (for me, I think that's a record), and I'm still freakin' tired...

I'd kill or be killed for a case of Red Bull right now...

No offense Ben... I was actually kinda curious if I'd get busted for rehashin' some old stuff....

I actually pulled it for a week on some of my very first posts... nobody noticed. Since my brain does NOT wanna work this morning, I figured I'd try again.

Should have gone back further

Regardless, there IS a coupla new things... Pimpburger and the term of the day (woohoo).

I DID have about 75% of an article that is going to appear tomorrow when my Shockwave install shut down every page I had open (I was pretty pissed). I keep swearing I'm gonna write my article in Notepad...

Tomorrow's post is probably going to be what was supposed to be up today (Time-Wasters I've found that were kind of cool)
