      I think that opinion in the United States is decidedly different from the rest of the world because we have a free press -- by free, I mean a virgorously presented right wing point of view on the air and available to all.- Ned

            ...when I was playing as Russia, Catherine ran off with some barbarian stud, leaving my capital in disorder.

            ...when I try to assign specialists, I only get unhappy slackers.

            ...whenever I enter a tribal village - even with a scout - the villagers are numerous and hostile.

            ...I get fungal blooms which wipe out my improvements and render the squares unworkable.

                  ...my levees always get washed away by floods.

                  ...even my inland cities not near any water have buildings that get washed away by floods.

                  ...if there's an oasis in my fat cross, it turns out to be a mirage.

                  ...my plantations have these strange little green patches in them; whenever a unit enters, it stops and loses a turn - then goes to the nearest city and eats all the food in the granary.

                          - My name is listed under Dan Quayle in the leadership ability list...

                          - I didn't realize that there was an option to win

                          - Instead of "autosaving" my screen says "why bother?"

                          - I thought the AI was cheating when it's army used weapons

                              ...my pals are all better comedians than players!

                              ...the tutorial taught me everything I know!

                              ...I go to 'girls playing Civ' for tips! I'll get in trouble for that.

                                ...my people forgot to buy food and all starved to death.

                                ...My great general deposed me, and made me serve in the army

                                ...After that, my clubmen beat me up, and made me work on one of my farms as a peasent.

                                ...then the great general who deposed me adopted the civic slavery, made me a slave, and then sold me to another civ

                                ...I then messed that up so badly that I made THAT civ lose.
