Cheat.
Argh.
Never knew you learnt so much stuff being a designer!?!
That is one detailed history you know there, unless you cheated and copied it!
Still, anything that doesn't resemble Englsih is just a load of random text to me.

Contrary to popular belief, Lipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...", can be read out of a line from section 1.10.32, reproduced above.
The standard chunk of Lipsum used since the 1500s is reproduced below for those interested. Sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 from "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" by Cicero are also reproduced in their exact original form, accompanied by english versions from the 1914 translation by H. Rackham.

Heh yes.
I've not been in the FOGs for about a year now. I post around elections usually to highlight the sheer stupidity of a lot of people and excercise my vote, but else, not much. To be honest I've dropped out of the console, and even gaming, scene at the moment. I just don' have enough money to keep it up, I prefer to enhance this computer and use it for 3D and stuff, with the odd bit of CS/UT, you know? It keeps me happy.

I know you got bored but how long you been bored with them? You could show Sony fanboy newbies how to argue for it as opposed to them currently posting gamecube = crap in the Nintendo forum. It was brutal...
Someone asked me this the other day.
I got bored of the lamers in the other forums.

It's neither Latin nor Greek nor anything, it's just random text that graphics people use to fill spaces as an example. Google for lorem ipsum and you can get the whole thing.
