172) You are taking the biology exam. Lecture gives you the following questions on a sheet of paper:

1. Why do a badger has multiple ways to get out of his burrow?
2. Why are some lizards able to regenerate their tales, if cut off?
3. Why did the dinosaurus die long long ago?
4. Why do bears sleep in winter?
5. Why do little cats are used to turn around trying to catch their tale?
6. Why do chameleons change their skin colour?
7. Why do hares change their fur in winter/summer time?
8. Why can't penguins fly?
9. Why do frogs always catch an insect with their tongue?
10. Why do cangaroos have a pouch?

These questions seem no problem for you. Here goes the answers:

1) If a badger suspects one way is mined, it uses another to go to the shop and purchase the minesweeper.
2) They have got an organic armor.
3) Because of plague. They didn't possess the medical bay technology.
4) Just mothballing maintainance costs.
5) Little cats are learning the function "Repeat Orders" .
6) Cloaking.
7) Retrofitting armor.
8) Their engines doesn't store enough suply to lift the weight of a penguin off the ground.
9) They have the religious talisman.
10) In order to have a possibility to transport extra population.

The next day you come to know exam rezults. You find your paper and... get amased. Slightly. Your mark is nine. The fifth answer is striked out in red with the following comment nearby: All units have "Repeat Orders" available at once when created. The correct answer should be: Little cats are getting used to deal with newly acquired scanning technology; scanning surroundings.

#172 LOL

But you are really addicted if you 'choose' a prof on the basis that he plays SE4.

Hmmmm

Does selecting a prof on the basis that he plays SE4 count as #174?

175. Your windows background is starmap.bmp
176. If you are not playing SE:IV, you're modding it.
177. Your wife growls whenever she sees a putrid green-brown website on the computer.

#178 The most exciting thing to happen over the holidays was not the gifts, the big x-mas dinner with family, or watching how exciting the nephews were, or meeting old friends and relatives you haven't seen for a while, but sneaking a cloaked fleet into the enemies home system and glassing his homeworld.
