33 CMC blue sorcery.

That's pretty overpowered TBH.

It seems to cost a crapton of resources to play.

If you COULD cast it, and had all the mana ever, you could combine it with a Meekstone and ruin your opponent's day.

My favourite is still the one that had "5B, Tap, sacrifice a player:"

[pisskop]

I havent played since . . . 15 years ago?  maybe?

I remember everyone carping their pants over drakes.

My favorite recent one is "Teferi's Curse":  1W, enchantment, each player gains 5 life every turn.

Honorable mentions to:
A pricey zombie who lets you (or your friends) draw a card every time you cast a spell.
A human barbarian insect who gives all slivers the ability to pay 1 life, where X is the number of poison counters on it.  Yeah so, the ability to just die.
Rooting Cyclops can become "a Plant Wall creature that's attacking you" until end of turn.
A green instant that... uh...  "Players can't exile its controller's library.  If they do, shuffle your library." 
And lastly, a Nampire [sic] Goblin who you can pay 1 mana and tap to have "Players shuffles his or her library in any order."  Grammar aside, possibly obscenely overpowered of course

Don't know what's more scary, the idea that it might not be a hoax, or the idea that some decks could still play it regularly

Oh that twitter is pretty neat, if you don't know it.  It's all fake cards, randomly generated daily by an algorithm.  Sometimes they can't work, like this one.  Sometimes the sentences don't even make any grammatical sense, which is a bit disappointing.  But some of them are fun.

Sometimes they even have their flavor in their ability text.

What makes ME WTF is that the keyboard on my laptop lights up.... For all of five seconds when I turn it on and then stays turned off all the time.  It's like, why bother?

Probably has the lights off by default. They illuminate on startup while the software is booting, then the settings kick in and they turn off, or whatever. Gotta change them if you want them to be on in use.

As for me, I've got a keyboard that can be set to selectively illuminate any grouping of keys you want. I use WASD+1-6 when I'm playing at night.

"Shuffle" vs "Sort" has always been iffy for me.

Since I'm going to be teaching Python to first year students next year, I qualify as lecturer/lector/whateverthefuckIshouldcallitinenglish. Not actually giving lectures though.

This means I have access to a portion of everyones data through the university information system. I can pick a random person and just look at everything they have registered for in the next semester. Don't have access to personal details though, which is good.

Somebody embedded dozens of links to a hentai site into the Wikipedia page for the RPG-7 antitank rocket launcher. I understand the concept of burying links to affect search engines, but that's a very odd page to do so with.

[Shadowlord]

Clearly they should have done it to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Day_of_the_Tentacle instead!

They must be trying to offend ISIS followers so bad that they suffer an aneurysm.
Good ol' Wikipedia editors, fighting the good fight!

Yeah, sure offend. 'Sir, I was just doing research on rocket launchers to better fight the infidels and it just popped up on my screen, I swear!'. Wikipedia confirmed for infiltrated by ISIS

You are misreading the fake card. It says target attacking creature gains +2/+2. What that means is that the casting player picks a single target to affect when the spell is cast. So - it's not all creatures, it's not even all attacking creatures. It's just one creature that happens to be attacking.

That's part of why this card is so lulzy. Costs a ton, can't be cast. Does fuck all even if you could cast it.

Hydroponic Dragon, which lets you play sorceries like instants. The synergy is obvious.

The RNN stuff is really interesting, and there's a whole boatload of cards made with networks. It takes some combing through, but there's a thread here that has a few dumps. It also has a whole bunch of process stuff, plus some forays into flavor text and art generation

It also has a tutorial, if you want to generate some of your own.
