9. Save The Lazy Smiley Face from Doom

The game has an underlying humanitarian plot by including a face that just sits there making faces at you the whole time. While you're in the process of clicking,it has a surprised, scared look on his face. He doesn't know whether his ass is about to be grass or whether he'll be alive and kicking when you let go of your mouse button. If he's still breathing, he'll go back to smiling, but if not, he'll frown and his eyes will go from being two circular dots to being two X's. Seeing that nobody planned a funeral for his dead face, he just waits patiently for you to start a new game.

10. Straight Outta Wikipedia

X was a country in Southeast Europe during most of the 20th century. It came into existence after World War I in 1918 under the name of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes by the merger of the provisional State of Slovenes, Croats and Serbs (itself formed from territories of the former Austro-Hungarian Empire) with the formerly independent Kingdom of Serbia. The Serbian royal House of Karađorđević became the Y royal dynasty. X gained international recognition on 13 July 1922 at the Conference of Ambassadors in Paris. The country was named after the South Slavic peoples and constituted their first union, following centuries in which the territories had been part of the Ottoman Empire and Austria-Hungary.

X mascot, Octocat, is an anthropomorphized female cat with five octopus-like arms. The character was created by graphic designer Simon Oxley as clip art to sell on iStock, a website that enables designers to market royalty-free digital images.

X became interested in Oxley's work after Y selected a bird that he designed for their own logo. The illustration GitHub chose was a character that Oxley had named Octopuss. Since GitHub wanted Octopuss for their logo (a use that the iStock license disallows), they negotiated with Oxley to buy exclusive rights to the image.

15. Back to the pavilion

In cricket, the term X refers to an opening batsman who is not dismissed ("not out") when the team innings is closed.

The term is mainly used when the innings closes after all 10 wickets have fallen; that is, the other 10 players in the team have all been dismissed ("out"). It may also be used in situations where one or more of these players retire out or are unable to bat through injury or illness, and the remaining players are all dismissed normally. It is not used, however, in any other situation where the innings closes before all 10 wickets have fallen, such as when it is declared closed, or when the team successfully chases a set run target to win the match.

It has been speculated that sailors who often went above and below deck might have needed to keep one eye adjusted to the darkness below decks.The strong sunlight while above deck on an oceangoing vessel could require minutes of adaptation to the dim lighting below deck. With virtually no light sources below deck, sailors would have to rely heavily upon their eyes to adjust. In the critical moments of modifying the rigging, navigating, and especially during battle, those minutes were too precious. This is the reason behind a popular culture happening.

Syldavia is a fictional country in X, the comics series by European cartoonist Y. It is located in the Balkans and has a rivalry with the fictional neighbouring country of Borduria. The Sprodj Atomic Research Centre, seen in P and Q, is located in Syldavia. The sprawling complex is located in the Zymylpathian Mountains of Syldavia (a play on the Carpathian Mountains), located close to rich deposits of uranium. The Centre is secretive and has very tightly-guarded security, including a large number of security checkpoints, helicopter surveillance, anti-aircraft artillery, and a squadron of fighter aircraft based at the facility. Work at the centre, carried out by a large team of international physicists recruited by the Syldavian government, involves research into protection from the effects of nuclear weapons, and is the base for the Syldavian space program. The facility, which seems to be entirely self-sufficient, is administered by the Director, Mr. Baxter. The Sprodj Centre has its own atomic pile for processing uranium into plutonium, and has vast facilities for the research and construction of the rocket-ship which carries R and his colleagues to the moon. The gargantuan complex is last seen at the end of Explorers on the Moon, and is never again seen in the R series. In P, the Sprodj Atomic Research Centre invites S to head its space division, and later R and T to be part of the moon mission. In U, Syldavia's secret agents compete with archrival Bordurian agents to kidnap S and obtain the secrets to develop sound-based weapons.

From Eros and X came the race of birds

In Greek mythology, X, according to Hesiod, was the first thing to exist: "at first X came to be" (or was) "but next" (possibly out of X) came Gaia, Tartarus, and Eros (elsewhere the son of Aphrodite). Unambiguously born "from X" were Erebus (Darkness) and Nyx (Night).

The Greek word "X", a neuter noun, means "yawning" or "gap", but what, if anything, was located on either side of this chasm is unclear. For Hesiod, X, like Tartarus, though personified enough to have borne children, was also a place, far away, underground and "gloomy", beyond which lived the Titans. And, like the earth, the ocean, and the upper air, it was also capable of being affected by Zeus' thunderbolts.

It seemed urban civilisation was doomed.
