'Typing of the Dead' Mods to 'How Girls Get Pregnant' and Other Classic Yahoo!

When Yahoo closes Yahoo Answers on May 4, a truly irreplaceable collection of human knowledge and comedy will be lost forever. Yahoo Answers will include "How Baby is Formed?" , "Did I See a Man So Beautiful He Made Me Cry?" and "Do spiders have pus?" provided a platform for questions such as these, giving us a deeper look into the human experience.

Thousands of messages as confusing, brilliant, and hilarious as these will disappear next month, but at least 500 will be laid to rest where they will remain forever.

"Typing of the Dead" is a spin-off of Sega's 1996 light gun-shooting game "The House of the Dead." Instead of pointing a gun at an arcade screen, players type in words or phrases such as "unicorn" or "for thyself" to blast undead running toward the screen. It might be the best idea ever for a video game; the Twitter account YahooAnswers.txt has been tweeting random quotes from Yahoo Answers for years. To use the RIP Yahoo Answers mod, just click the Subscribe button It is.

Just by looking at these four screenshots, it is clear that there is a real winner in this collection.

This mod could also be used as a hard mode for the pros of Typing of the Dead. There are sure to be many typos lurking in this archive that will drive your WPM crazy.

Bless you, YahooAnswers.txt, for this important and hilarious preservation work.
