It has given me my favorite phrase to use on coworkers who are engaged in unnecessary work:
"The first step in [disguising yourself as] a man without a moustache, is not to construct a fake moustache."
- pimlottc 11y agoI miss Old Man Murray, they wrote some really wonderful (if not quite polite) scathing critiques. One of my favorites is when they savaged Origin for not having the server component finished by the retail ship date of an Ultima Online expansion: "In these two short paragraphs, Origin has effectively ended what will someday be known as the golden age of games. They've broken the sacred bond of trust between gamer and gaming mega-corporation: that there is actually a game in the box you're purchasing." http://www.oldmanmurray.com/news/288.html http://www.oldmanmurray.com/news/288.html
