            Funnily enough, I counted before saying that & there are 8 letters in crickets & chirping. I was very disappointed. :/

          Are you saying that Gordon Freeman and Gabe Newell are one and the same?

            YES! That is why we cannot have Half Life 3! Because you know, no one would believe an overweight guy such as Gabe can swing a crowbar with such viciousness, nevermind save the world!
            And I am not fat hating or anything. I am speaking from 100 % experience here.

        No idea.
        Most of the family on my father’s side are quite serious so I don’t think it was much of a problem.

        The kids at school and the people in university though…
