- All artists who love to work in darkness will probably develop severe eye problems within the next 20 years.

As someone who has worked in darkness for the last 10 years and has perfect 20/20 vision, and aware of the fact that you wear glasses, how can I trust you with this prediction?

- Buy a neat and geek Tetris-themed coffee mug and take it to the office. See coworkers getting crazy about it while you receive a boost in popularity. See some disrespectful fool use your mug days later and mask your anger. Take it back to your home to avoid getting stolen. See your mug broken on the sink. Cries.

- Work at a game company. Design games. Receive complaints that what you designed looks a lot like games. Try to keep your faith in humanity. Fail.
