Law enforcement has contacted Microsoft about this matter
Oh great .. now I have the potential to be harrased by the police because some nub in a game does something wrong IRL.It is possible that police will ask Microsoft to divulge the list of players with whom Brandon Crisp has played recently
Yes officer, I saw him run of with a gnome... oh about 3 foot tall, female, with pink hair in two pony tails, yes she was into demonic things, called herself a warlock, definate devil worship - had some big guy with an axe following her....
And if my thought-dreams could be seen
They'd probably put my head in a guillotine
But it's alright, Ma, it's life, and life only.

Haha, if only this was possibly every time someone got scammed in WoW!:

The caption is what makes it for me.
Who do you think you are? If you'd stopped winning, you could have been the Biggest Loser, if you gave up, you could have been a Survivor, if you'd stopped reading Orwell, you could have been on Big Brother!

"Tests find poo in Coogee Bay Hotel ice cream sample"
http://www.news.com.au/story/0,27574,24 ... 21,00.html
* Tests reveal traces of poo in ice cream
* Not yet known if it's human or animal
* Coogee Bay Hotel staff to give samples
That line requires context fixing because, despite the offer, I will pass on a sample of poo laced ice-cream even if it's free.

Science: Every time you misuse it, a baby dies.
Basically, the family involved, I'll call them Whiny White Trash have had tests done on their sample, but not supplied that sample to the hotel or anyone else (other than the people who lab tested theirs).
That test has shown up positive for bilirubin, which I guess is found in high concentrations in number twos. Or something.
First I've heard of it, but then I'm no poopologist.
Anyways, while the family's test has naturally condemned the restaurant, the restaurant's own test, on their tub 'o' (already suspiciously poo-coloured) icecream has, surprise surprise, come up negative for pooping.
My guess? The woman in question was being a dick and whining too much, and some staff member decided to take a dump and pass the savings along to the customer.
It's like trickle-down economics (Piss on the Bastards economics) except more viscous.
The lesson:
Treat your wait staff with respect, you obnoxious apes, they're serving you things that you put in your mouth.
Same goes for anyone else who puts things in your mouth. Trust me.

BECAUSE CELEBRITIES HAVE NEVER HAD THEIR PRIVATE LIVES EXPOSED UNTIL NOW, AMIRITE?

Rubbish Psych Provides Mixed Messages
Actually, I can't tell if it's the awful journalism, or just the badly presented research.
*Men are more likely to cheat
*They're more precise at picking when partners cheat
*But they have more false positives
Uh huh.
No wait - better headline:
Slow news week produces pointless articles about sex, facebook
