Hehe :) "Real-world". Your worlds are each limited to 1 cubic "foot" 
volume surrounding your dicks. That's your world!

The real world is being explored inside universities, morons.

"Engineer" stench's so abundant here in this hellhole it stinks of old

your computers. Vote a thug into White House with it.

Fucking idiots.
