Six Monkeys And An Old Saw

Posted by timothy on from the hard-to-disprove-the-infinite dept.

Sayten241 writes "They say that an infinite amount of monkeys typing at an infinite amount of typewriters will produce literature greater than Shakespeare. Well, it has been proven that six monkeys and one computer will produce a computer that has been smashed with a rock, urinated upon, and four pages worth of the letter 's.' The end of the article states that scientifically this does prove that monkeys are more complex than random generators."

  4. Fuck Slashdot and its DDoS attacks by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    It's been 6 hours since the Gobo Linux story went up and I still can't get the the page.

    You guys are real assholes, why don't you ask permission before you release your DDoS attack on these poor sites. The GoboLinux project is(was) fairly small, and there are no mirrors.

    Now I bet the site will never come back after having to pay its bandwidth bill.

    Way to go Slashbots, you just killed one of your own, you must be proud.

    Shitheads.

    Dear Father O'Day:

    Thanks for your letter. Being Catholic myself, I know exactly what you're talking about! It has always been our plan here at Apple Computer Inc to revolutionize personal computing with our high-quality and highly gay products.

    I'm happy to answer your letter by letting you know that YES we will be releasing an entire hLife ("homo-life") software line. You'll be able to recognize it in stores by the small stylized logo depicting a large cock entering a tight anus with an Apple logo on it. ("Suddenly it all comes together" indeed!).

    Anyway, I hope you and other members of our community will join us on our mission, and purchase the exciting new hLife boxed set. Only the boxed set comes with translucent cock rings!

    Sincerely,

    Harry Rodman
    Vice-president
