Man Sues Neighbor For Not Turning Off His Wi-Fi
Scyth3 writes "A man is suing his neighbor for not turning off his cell phone or wireless router. He claims it affects his 'electromagnetic allergies,' and has resorted to being homeless. So, why doesn't he check into a hotel? Because hotels typically have wireless internet for free. I wonder if a tinfoil hat would help his cause?"
And stop eating meat OR veggies -- I can hear the carrots scream!
Generally, bash is superior to python in those environments where python is not installed.
Is he crazy? I wanna sue my neighbour for not turning his WiFi back on!
If you aren't suspicious of your government's actions, you aren't doing your job as a responsible citizen.
Your neighbor's dog doesn't radiate through the walls though. :P
There seems to be a desperate need for Faraday Burka. That way they can feel safe and we don't have to look at them. Also they'll have the added benefit of it protecting them from the sun's rays which I'm sure most sufferers aren't used to seeing. A mesh lined Burka has got to be more stylish than walking around in tin foil.
That can't stop you from suing. Look at Jonathan Lee Riches. This is a guy who sued the Guinness Book of World Records for listing him as the man who's filed the most lawsuits in the history of mankind. ;) He's among others, he's sued Bill Belichick, George W. Bush, Martha Stewart, Jeff Gordon, Michael Vick, Steve Jobs, Perez Hilton, Somali pirates, Britney Spears, Benazir Bhutto, Pervez Musharraf, the Immigration and Naturalization Service, Adolf Hitler's National Socialist Party, the 13 tribes of Israel, Plato, Nostradamus, Che Guevara, James Hoffa, "Various Buddhist Monks", the Lincoln Memorial, the Eiffel Tower, the USS Cole, the book Mein Kampf, the Garden of Eden, the Roman Empire, the Appalachian Trail, Plymouth Rock, the Holy Grail, the dwarf planet Pluto, and the entire Three Mile Island.
Stop it, stop it, it's fine. I will *destroy* you.
Ferrets are widely known to promote blood circulation, asshole. One of the landmark studies compared the orgonocephalic health of a man with a ferret strapped to his head against that of a control subject*, with many interesting results.

Literalism isn't a form of humor, it's you being irritating.
But he should really watch out for doubles.

Bullshit. I know the dog radiates because of my allergy to thermal radiation.
That's what you get when you read /. at 2 am and you are falling asleep on the keyboard...
In other news, the Prime Minister released a press release today, explaining that recent government scandals were the result of "problems with the WiFi" which caused "mass delusions among Parliamentarians" which "made them do it." Mr. Brown promises that henceforth that the Parliamentary floor, retreats and other events will be WiFi-free in order to combat corruption. No word on Browning Street.
It's worth noting that the French, acting on behalf of the Eiffel tower, settled out of court for an undisclosed sum of money.
How is a story of the French surrendering worth noting? :)
Why is it so hard to only have politicians for a few years, then have them go away?
It is suspected that this lawsuit was really a conspiracy just designed to get all named plantiffs one degree of separation away from Kevin Bacon (also named in the suit).

Is there a term for when you make a joke on /., someone responds by making the joke more obvious, and then they get the funny mod instead of you? Maybe "whooshmodded?"
Anyway, two can play at that game:

Frenchman: "Who is there? NEVERMIND WE SURRENDER BECAUSE WE'RE FRENCH AND EAT CHEESE!"

No, it seems like a constant high-pitched whine to me...

He's only homeless in that he moved out of his house into his car to get away from the EMF.
That's unbelievable.
Everybody loves EMF
Reminds me of a joke: Q: Why are French boulevards lined with trees? A: So invading forces can walk in the shade.
If I point out that you are incorrect, making me a foe does not make you any more correct.
It will star a Navvi' lawyer who gains fame suing the entire planet earth for deforestation of his planet and other environmental disasters caused by by 'drive by' visits by earthlings.
Budget for this mix of "Philadelhia" meet "Avatar" is estimated at over 330,000,000 and will use up the worlds' entire supply of "green screen" drop cloths, as soon as he learns how Cristo wrapped the Reichstag.

The fun part is that in Europe all those jokes feature the Italians instead.
What's the perfect war?
German comman
British soldiers
US supplies
in Russian amounts
and Italian enemies.
What's the three thinnest books?
The book of delicious British food.
The US-american "how to behave abroad" book.
The book about Italian war heroes.
Why don't the Italians fight harder?
Because they know they'll switch sides half way and don't want to have to do the work twice.
Why do Italians build foxholes with sandbags on both sides? Because it's more work to move them every time they switch sides.
And so on. Granted, most of those jokes come from Germany, maybe they're still bitter that the Italians switched sides in BOTH major wars in last century...
We used to have a Bill of Rights. Now, with the rights gone, all we have left is the bill.

It's because they're fat, stupid Americans.
