Seattle Monorail & California High Speed Rail Move Forward
bscottid writes "Woo-hoo! The monorail passed in Seattle!. And, it was driven by an amazing grass-roots effort of people who saw a way to use technology to get us moving again here in The Emerald City. Everyone mark your calendars, because in 2007 you're invited up here to take a quick, scenic ride around the beautiful city of Seattle! (Begin Simpsons references now)" It's also worth pointing out that in the recent california election, a pair of bills were passed which put aside approximately $10b for the construction of California's high speed rail project.
We must move forward, not backward
Upwards, not forwards,
and always twirling, twirling, twirling...
Ok, slashdot was down for a bit, so I go over to slashdot.jp, the japanese slashdot. NOW LISTEN: THERE ARE NO TROLLS THERE. Oh yes its true, no one claiming first post, no links to goatse, no fucking troll tuesday! Its like a virgin walking down a dark alley at night! Please, my troll brothers, go, go and teach them, teach them to troll! Troll a man's website, annoy him for a day. Teach him how to troll and he'll annoy other for a lifetime.
No, you're thinking of our dumbfuck of a
president dumbfuck.
oh shit man you are killing the simpsons. seriously, i liked the simpsons better before it was popular and had a large following.
every article on slashdot about monorails has had this quote. please let it never happen again.
if you truely love the simpsons please stop posting their quotes and ruin a cartoon that has already been ruined, (like south park).
thank you. and mods, mod parent down please. thank you.
i saw a goatse link comment but now it is gone. have the scientologists finally won?
Oh come on now moderators, you should be ashamed! An obvious troll and you mod him up to 5? Are you guys moderating drunk again? Tsk tsk tsk.
... while you get all the really good parking spots at the mall.
/., its not important eh? : )
See, sentences like this:
to all of you driving those stupid little Neighborhood Electric Vehichle
Are an obvious sign of trolling. Also, since he isn't stating anything actually relevant in this case (he names 7 forms of power generation and still doesn't mention the one actually used for seattle), modding him +1 Informative is a clear sign of moderating under the influence.
Sigh, and the metamoderation system won't spot this since they won't see the context...ah well, its just
You can't take the sky from me...
"God bless Washington--a place where a man can stand tall and pump his own damn gas!"
You must have an SUV. I have to stoop over to pump my gas.
Or, perhaps I am of average height with really short arms. hehe.
