One Ring Rules the MIT Dome

Patiwat Panurach writes "The Great Dome of MIT was overtaken on the morning of Monday the 17th by a great golden ring, inscribed in red Elvish with text that translates to: "One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them, One Ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them." The hackers were apparently not completely successful, for neither the Great Dome nor Building 10 managed to vanish into the realm of shadows."

  5. ITS NO STAR TREK by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    tar trek is the best, and the best captain of the
    enterprise ever is Kirk. Here are my reasons for this decision:

    1) I am pretty sure Picard is gay.

    2) Sisco is cool sometimes, but he wasn't
    captain of the Enterprise (even though the
    Defiant is pretty cool).

    3) Riker wtf is wrong with you? You had the
    chance to bang Counseller Troy but you didn't
    take it. Idiot.

    4) Janeway needs to take some lessons on
    navigating a star ship. When they passed through
    the plasma wave that took the ship across the
    galaxy it took approximately 14 seconds for
    the ship to traverse the entire distance. This
    is physically impossible, as muons and neutrinos
    can not traverse a strong tachyon field quickly
    enough to cause this velocity.

    5) Pike is a complete idiot. He didn't do very
    good on that machine with the two little lights
    on it.

    6) It's to soon to tell about Archer in the
    new Enterprise, but he should get it on with
    that Vulcan girl, that is the only reason I watch
    this show, I'm hoping for it to happen. They
    should put Quantum Leap back on the air.

    7) Kirk is a badass. When the shit starts to go
    down, Kirk isn't going anywhere until its over.
    Plus Kirk is a player, each episode Kirk is
    slamming some new alien chick.

    8) Spock is sexy.

    PS here are my favorite Star Trek Quotes:

    WARP SPEED AHEAD, SULU!

    STAND BY FOR SAUCER SEPERATION.

    TEA, EARL GREY, HOT.

    ENTER.

    SHUTUP WESLEY.
