Much Love! :ultrahappy:

My favourite part of the article :
Oh, but wait, such a hypocrite I am! I've claimed your article is silly, yet I've provided no evidence. It is at this point that I would like to analyse your article in segments.

It seems to be sort of a draft of an email. The guy seems to have some knowledge of what is talking about and is well wrote. He was a good point I'd didn't think about. Rovio shouldn't be happy about it. Imagine if Rovio had public stock offering? Will mommies confiscate their children mobiles afraid of virus ported in Angry Virus?

It's times like this that make you wish Fox News was a person so you can walk up to him and punch him directly in the face. I'm just waiting for the first unknowing individual to come out and try and ban Angry Birds just because of its unfair association.

I wonder if this puts me on any terrorist watch lists or no-fly lists. What do FBI trucks look like again?

Pshh...it's not the trucks you should worry about. It's those damn stealth black helicopters lowering the infiltration team onto your roof that you should be concerned with.

Also interesting: apart from the title, the phrase "Angry Birds" is only used once, and that's in the introductory paragraph. That's basically admitting "yeah, we link-baited you all. We're Fox News, deal with it."

Of course, that does not stop people from forming the association, if only subconsciously.

Hi. I'm new here. I just want to know why Love2d.org uses Lua instead of other scripting language. Is it really that simple to learn? Thanks.
