Come on! Fire, water, and now beams of electricity! What could happen!

And also get a man-in-black-style earpiece. And then call everyone "Mr. Anderson".

Okay, so Gizmodo misses out on the industry trade show equivalent of the pride parade. So what?

No kidding

...the Pres. Carter speed limit...

You mean this Pres. Carter? *sigh* Just goes to show... And guess who was president when it was repealed. I mean, not that these little trivialities really make a difference.

I have proof that mole rats did, in fact, have sex with homo sapiens.

I present the proof.

Gentlemen, I await my much deserved Nobel Peace Prize, you can mail it to the usual address.

I am frightened by the replies I am getting from a community I assumed was logical at least to the point of reading my post and consulting with their brains before answering! I wasn't writing a paper on evolution, simply trying to point out that celebrating which gender you are attracted to is not going to garner much acceptance and to me doesn't make one bit more sense than a "straight pride parade" or a "diabetics pride parade". After all, diabetes is a disease that should have been cured decades ago (according to way smarter folks than me), but we are being discriminated against by money-grabbing pharmaceutical giants at the cost of limbs and life.

The whole point of my post was that homosexuals, bisexuals, blacks, whites, asians, diabetics are all different, and it doesn't matter!

What does matter though, is that claiming to work for equality and acceptance while dancing shit-faced drunk and concealed only by your pink underwear and purple feather boa in the gay pride parade because it is your "culture" doesn't seem very logical.

Until the minorities stop constantly screaming in my ear about them being minorities, how on earth am I supposed to forget and ignore their differences and just get on with my unbiased life? How can I ignore these differences when there are people shrieking about how different they are in every possible media outlet?

And by the way, I live in Norway. If you go out clubbing and you ask someone "Have you seen my friend? He's black and wears blue jeans." (because.. well.. he's black and wears blue jeans and that is fairly easily recognizable compared to eye-color, hairdo, etc.) and someone black (who is not your friend) hears you, you better have an impressive gift of speech to avoid a whopping!

you can upgrade video drivers in Vista (and above), or recover from a video display crash, without even closing and reopening your windows

Your are so mean! Why don't you just leave Linux alone!

|| for a date with Inara Serra / Morena Baccarin? Mmm.. don't know who THEY are; I just wanna marry Kirstie Allie! OK then; just a "date".
