Two dumb questions this time.
Who is Gordon Freeman?
and what does FTW stand for?

:idea:
Who wants to play the 'What time is at where you are' game?
Copy the last posts post time
e.g. It says yvaN_ehT_nioJ posted "Mario is awesome" etc

on my computer, what time does it say on yours?
Except each succesive poster compare the previous poster.
Anybody?
I am in Australia BTW.


Gordon Freeman is a theoretical physicist that is the main charater in the Half life series of videogames.

FTW means for the win.

Well, Master Chief (Halo) and/or Commander Shepard (Mass Effect) would definitely bring down Gordon Freeman.

Well, the character isn't the only reason why my name is Yoshi. The character's name is the closest to my real name. I won't say the rest. :oops:

My guess concerning the end of the world:

The polar caps will melt and an army of penguins and seals will come unexpectedly and hack ice axes at us. :lol:


We humans are very good at exterminating things, penguins with ice axes are probably no problem for Mcdonald's. They'll just have Ronald McDonald bore them to death and then make penguin hamburgers. :twisted:

McDonald's = expert on destroying the environment, including armed penguins.

I bet my money on the humans (unless, of course, the penguins arm themselves with bazookas. In that case I just might join them).

The only thing I will ever eat from McDonald's is their chicken tenders/nuggets and fries. Nothing else.

The last thing I want to talk about is politics, economy, and religion (I remember how that went). :roll:

Ok, I can agree about that. A discussion about politics could very well become endless, but would not be fun. What other topics are endless?

One Wall at a time topic

If Chinese are at least 1.5 billion in the world (not just in China), then at least one of every six humans is Chinese, not counting those of different parentage.

A way^ to do it. :wink:

Thing with America though, being that our nation is "Ex pluribus unum" - out of many one - that we can't count by race.
Yes, the Chinese are 1 out of 6. However the USA still accounts for 1 out of 20 of the people on Earth.

If we were to include the ancestor nations of all the citizens in the USA, how many would there be in the world?

The original 13 colonies came from Britain basically. If we were to include all the populations of the USA, Canada, Britain, and Australia, what would be the headcount?

About a billion, I suppose?

Anyway, as I see it, 19th century was Pax Brittanica. The 20th century was Pax Americana. Will the 21st century become Pax Chinensis?
