Code:
public static volatile Muffin muffin = new BlueberryMuffin();
public static Forum forum = new Forum("http://www.miraigamer.net/");
public static ForumThread ft;

public static void main(String[] args){
muffin.popular = true;
forum.enterSubforum("Satellite Lounge");
forum.enterSubforum("Forum-Based Games");
ft = forum.getThread("Questions and answers");
Thread t = new Thread(){
void run(){
while(ft.getPost(ft.postQty()-1).getUser() != forum.getUser("wedge of cheese"));
muffin.popular = false;
}
}
while(muffin.popular);
t.stop();
System.out.println("Evidently wedges of cheese are more delicious than blueberry muffins.");
System.out.println("Go figure...");
}

What does the above code do (assuming I understand multi-threading correctly and that I defined the classes Forum, ForumThread, Muffin, and BlueberryMuffin elsewhere)?

I'm guessing it is an overly-complicated attempt at dividing by zero.
Or that it check to see if the last post in this thread is by wedge of cheese, and if it isn't, spreads propaganda about cheese being better than muffins.

I'm at a loss for synonyms for stupid. Suggestions?

Pretty close. It was actually meant to wait until the last post in this thread is by me and then spread propaganda.

Almost exactly the same way you play a piano, except that it involves less music and more sex.

How to you play a piano?

You stick it in.

Texas Hold 'Em

1.) Initial blinds are posted.
2.) Each player is dealt two cards face down.
3.) Players place bets (with a minimum of matching the blinds) on the initial strength, with 4.) the option of folding.
5.) The dealer discards the top card of the deck and reveals the top three.
6.) Players re-analyze and re-bet on their hands.
7.) The dealer discards the top card again and reveals one more card.
8.) Another round of betting follows.
9.) The dealer discards the top card and reveals the final card.
10.) Players make final bets on their hands.
11.) Players reveal their hands and the best combination wins.

- If at any point all except 1 player folds, that player is the winner.
- Ties result in the pot being split by the winning players.
- The last player to have chips is the game winner.
- Cards are valued at numerical value with face cards being of the greatest value (J<Q<K), with aces being both one and one higher than a king (as needed).

Hands
High Card: The highest value card if no other hands are possible.
Pair: Two cards of the same value (K-K, 2-2).
Two Pair: 4 cards of 2 different values (2-2 & 3-3, A-A & K-K)
Three of a Kind: 3 cards of the same value
Straight: 5 cards in sequential order
Flush: 5 cards of the same suit
Full House: A pair and a three of a kind
Four of a Kind: 4 cards of the same value
Straight Flush: A straight, but with all cards in the same suit
Royal Flush: 5 cards - A,K,Q,J,10 - All in the same suit.

I don't know, but I do know....

Odds of Poker Hands

Royal Flush - 649,739:1
Straight Flush - 72,192:1
4 of a Kind - 4,164:1
Full House - 693:1
Flush - 508:1
Straight - 254:1
3 of a Kind - 56:1
Two pair - 20:1
One pair - 1.37:1

Not sure if this applies to texas hold 'em or the other version, but they're probably similar.




Which type of poker do these odds apply to?

Five card poker.

Why can't you do trivial five-second Google searches yourself?

I never take you seriously.

Has anyone ever picked up a soking piece of paper on it and you unfolded it to find out that it was a scrap of someone's diary who died of drug overdose?

Also, Does anyone know what Mustang Ranch is?

Do you think at some point I worked there?

No (answer to both your questions).

Why is it that whenever I think I'm supposed to be really busy, I actually end up really bored?

Because you're always busy with boring stuff. Why do you do that?

Because sometimes having sex with your girlfriend gets tedious, but it's still totally worth it.

Why use condoms?
