  2. Sad News... Filthy Critic dead at 54 by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    I just heard some sad news on talk radio - movie review writer The Filthy Critic was found dead outside the Arvada Tavern last Thursday. He died the way he lived--wobbling aimlessly in the slow lane. I'm sure everyone in the Slashdot community will miss him - even if you didn't enjoy his work, there's no denying his contributions to popular culture. Truly an American icon.

    Is that @ really necessary? You save almost no space, and still have to press two keys.

      Its not that hard to type @. The @ key is just next to the shift key so its quite easy to press both at the same time.

    I predict a earthquake in Utah near end of the SCO/IBM trial and some company there will be completely dusted.

    Unless they were being fed hot grits.

    Or being walked by a petrified Natalie Portman.

    Or being sued by SCO.

    P.S. Please come up with a new slashdot meme.

  7. morons anticipating unprecedented changes by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    it's won of the known ways to disempower unprecedented evile.

    you can anticipate all you want. our advise is to be as far away from the walking dead contingent as possible, when the big flash occurs. you wouldn't want to get any of that evile on you.

    as to the free unlimited energy plan, as the lights come up, more&more folks will stop being misled into sucking up more&more of the infant killing barrolls of crudeness, & learn that it's more than ok to use newclear power generated by natural (hydro, solar, etc...)methods. of course more information about not wasting anything/behaving less frivolously is bound to show up, here&there.

    cyphering how many babies it costs for a barroll of crudeness, we've decided to cut back, a lot, on wasteful things like giving monIE to felons, to help them destroy the planet/population.

    no matter. the #1 task is planet/population rescue. the lights are coming up. we're in crisis mode. you can help.

    the unlimited power (such as has never been seen before) is freely available to all, with the possible exception of the aforementioned walking dead.

    consult with/trust in yOUR creator. more breathing. vote with yOUR wallet. seek others of non-aggressive intentions/behaviours. that's the spirit, moving you.

    pay no heed/monIE to the greed/fear based walking dead.

    each harmed innocent carries with it a bad toll. it will be repaid by you/us. the Godless felons will not be available to make reparations.

    pay attention. that's definitely affordable, plus you might develop skills which could prevent you from being misled any further by phonIE ?pr? ?firm? generated misinformation.

    good work so far. there's still much to be done. see you there. tell 'em robbIE.

    the rest of the wwworld is laughing/crying at/for US in sympathy/disgust, as we fall/jump into the daze of the georgewellian corepirate nazi life0cide, whilst criticizing their ip gangsters, which are also members of the walking dead.

    as for va lairIE's patentdead PostBlock(tm) devise, a 'product' of the SourceForgerIE(tm) hedgemonIE no DOWt, it just doesn't work.

  8. Sad news, Stephen King dead at 55 by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    I just heard some sad news on talk radio - horror/fiction writer Stephen King was found dead in his Maine home this morning. There weren't any more details yet. I'm sure we'll all miss him, even if you weren't a fan of his work there's no denying his contribution to popular culture. Truly an American icon.
