Children should not play with matches’ is a well know cool saying that we all know maybe even from our grandparents. It really means the basic thing that little kids should not play with matches but it may also have a deeper meaning for instance that you were too young and too naive to cope with that situation and you shouldn’t have got involved in it. It will depend on the type of situation and to whom it is addressed. We know this saying by heart and surely we shall say it to our kids as well.

An interesting and cool saying is ‘If your friends decided to jump off a bridge, would you?’ and this one is mostly used on teenagers that are influenced by their friends in doing all sorts of things. It has a hidden meaning because this is a main reason that teenagers get in trouble nowadays, waiting to be cool and accepted by their gang and doing stuff that they would not ordinary do but if the other kids do it, then it is cool.

As a parent do try to explain the fact that if you follow a set of rules that some older kid/kids implemented in your group would you would not become more cool or interesting and also as a kid remember that you shall set yourself apart by being unique and developing your talents and trying to gain as much as experience and knowledge as you can because this will matter not all the stupid things that your fake friends will put you up to. Real friends will accept and love you the way you are.

‘I brought you into the world, I can take you out’ is a classic revenge cool saying that you surely have hard in the movies. It is quite possible that you have heard it also in real life and it is addressed to someone that took advantage of some skills or relations of another one and now he or she will surpass the ‘teacher’. This saying is full of resentment and with the knowledge that you can destroy a person if you would like because with your help he or she got here and if that person did not get your help then you would not have problems right now. It also means that the person we are talking about has made some mistakes or too some decisions of bad judgment that affected you directly and you did not expected this to happen.

For the ones that like to speak their mind we have the cool saying ‘Stop beating around the bush’. When you will hear this, it will surely mean that it is quite obvious that you do not want to hear the intro of the problem and all the false pretenses and to go straight to the problem. Usually the receiver of this saying tried to stall some time and to forge some excuses so that the problem will not seem that much deeper. Actually it is because this is why that person tries to invent or explain more the problem, feeling guilty and also vulnerable. Literally ‘beating around the bush’ means circling an issue, decision or a problem not knowing how to approach it.

When somebody is giving you the ‘cold shoulder’ this will mean that he or she is upset with you and tried to make a point. This is the fastest way to show that you are angry and upset without causing a scene that most probably no one would like. The person that got the cold should will surely notice a change in the behavior of the other parts involved and realize that something is wrong and hopefully it will all turn out well.

A fun game to play when deciding something is ‘I got the short end of the stick’. If you have a job or a chour or anything that you have to decide upon and you are a group then this will ease your decision, as the one that will take the shorter stick will do that annoying thing that everybody wants to run from. The main thing is that after deciding, you can’t contest the decision because you lost fair and square so do not be a cheater because this little game is all about luck. So, are you feeling lucky?

A cool saying that Murphy said is ‘Whatever can go wrong will go wrong’ and this was quoted as an universal law. You know the feeling when bad strikes keep on coming and they come all together? Well this is it, because it is a fundamental rule that this will happen at the very single sign of a little rain, if you allow it the storm will flood. It will only depend on you to get out of it and how much it will affect you. You have to be more optimistic and think positive by saying that this is just a minor set back and things will run to their natural course.

Having the idea that all will be wrong and everything is not chaos, you are going to focus only on the problem and maximize it, when you should focus on a solution and think of better ways to resolve the situation that occured. It is normal that we pass through life by having ups and downs because otherwise we will not appreciate the happy and joyful moments when we will have them. It will depend only on us and our powerful will to get out of the situation and create a solution. Do keep in mind the fact that the longer you complain and criticize yourself for ending up in this predicament, the longer your problem will persist because you are focusing on the wrong things.

We are going to present a list with the top world’s coolest games so that people will know what new or old game should they buy to have a very entertaining gaming experience.

Civilization by Sid Meier and Mircroprose which is one of the best addictive and coolest games invented having a sustained level of game play satisfaction and rich composure. Being augmented from the quintessential research and from the developing model also blends exploration with conquests and economics and also diplomacy. You will become excited more and more as you discover the gun powder or erect the Pyramids or even colonize spacecraft to the Alpha Centauri. What is very exciting about his game is the fact that when you think that you have it all out of control and that all is in your favor , you discover new technologies that you may not posses or new lands that have to be conquered and you keep telling yourself ‘just one hour more’. But we all know that never is the case.

The Red Baron from Sierra brought in 1990 has all the realistic features turned on. The rotary aircraft , machine guns everywhere, everything is just like it supposed to be. With the astonishing campaigns and the interesting missions tossed in together it is very unlikely that you will find a better experience for flying. It is selling on the market in spite of the old graphics for VGA. If you want the more modern option you could choose to buy the Red Baron II. For a flight fan, this is the best experience.

In 1993 appeared the best action game of all times, DOOM. It was an explosion on the market changing the PC into a very fast gaming machine although DOOM was not 3D.

When you think of the fact that Sim City from Maxis almost never got published on the grounds that the game will not satisfy the needs of the users it almost makes you laugh. You can build you city from scratch, continue the next day to ruin it or just discover all the new things and features that this game has to offer. You will evaluate your performances as you enjoy the game. Now, what would you like more from a game?

Interplay launched in 1991 Wasteland, an impressive story that is set in the post nuclear world with technology that disintegrates and a society full of mutant organisms that became dysfunctional. This was the first game that was every played with a party of members that were like real people and which replaced the old cabinets of inventory that had names and automatic skills from the start. If you ask to a party member to give you some ammo or to split the cash you will be surprised as you may get the ‘Hell-No!’ answer.

The first, coolest game that offered a realistic flying experience was the Falcon 3.0 introducing the first flight sim campaign. It is one of the top five games of the time that supported the feature of multi players and a testament to its design and quality is the fact that many people purchase it even today, so we recommended it too.

Psygnosis brought to you Lemmings, which is a diabolical puzzle game that starts with many simple challenges and works you firmly towards conundrums that will require your mouse to do split second timing. At its first release the version fro the PC had a very poor imitation of the Amiga predecessor but the 95 Windows updates included the Lemmings Paintball.
Zork that appeared in 1981 starts with a latter in the mailbox outside a white house and you start a magical journey from here into the the wonderful land of Frobozz. It has cute descriptive prose, combined challenges with puzzles with a bit of humor to make a rich and astonishing universe that will exist in your head not only in the SVGA graphics. All the users will spend all their time glued to the monitor trying to own the universe and protect it from dark Zork Nemesis. Beware, it’s a very addictive and cool game.

In 1988 Tetris appears on the market and we think that this was the last attempt of the Soviet Union to destroy America and the productivity from its market and it would have succeeded if personal computers would have been more common back then. It would become an obsessive game the simple task of matching falling blocks, that bad ,that users would even dream about it.

One of the best war games was Panzer General from SSI that appeared in 1994 and most of the gamers wanted to be Lee or Patton or even Rommel just for one day and this game was made with this exact purpose, giving the user exciting and touch scenarios and campaigns. But do keep in mind that this is a hard game and a very realistic one, so not anyone should play it. It kind of lack of historical facts but in makes up on the variety of the challenges. This game made war games to be more fun and very good on the market.

The haunting tale from the insightful Ann Rice of games, Jane Jensen mixes the supernatural element with the psychological one having a very good game adventure interface and equipped with motion video, Gabriel Knight 2: The Beast Within is one of those addictive games that will scare you and make you stay up nights in a row.

Sid Meier made another addictive and cool game named ‘Pirates!‘ in 1987, by Micropose. This is the better version of Amiga, with role playing and very smooth and combat ship control and the fastest sword playing that was ever on the market in those days.

If you are on the market for a good game and do not know what to buy do remember that one of the oldest games are the funniest and the most addictive. Enjoy!

In honor of Chrome OS, here BusinessInsider has collected a nice selection of obscure old operating systems that basically died on the vine.

Take BeOS, for example. Be was one of the most amazing OSes I’d ever seen, especially in about 1995. Then there were real clinkers like Inferno and Arthur, OSes that tried valiantly to fill holes that weren’t there. Interestingly most of these still are in production somewhere, idling away waiting for the right time to become sentient and strike.
