I'm glad you were. I was too busy losing all the time. I still can't finish the last level, and getting through Silly (I think that was the name of it; the reversed gravity level) is still a bitch...
Then please explain how this ridiculous "overlord" cliché can be rocketed to +5 Funny for certain topics but will be shot down to -1 Redundant for others
Perhaps the fact that there's more than one person with moderation points?
I didn't expect my half-joking remark to be taken so seriously. Nor did I expect it to be misinterpreted that badly.
I wasn't mocking kind, humane behavior. I'm simply surprised that anyone expects it anymore. I agree that it should be normal enough to expect it, but in all but the smallest towns I've lived in, I've found that it's simply not common at all.
I believe the rationale behind it is that such remarks are made here all the time, so they're redundant on the five hundredth time they're posted, even if it's only the first post on a specific topic.
I understand that it's not a viable solution for everyone, but it is entirely reasonable for a large number of people.
I'm not asking people who live in the middle of nowhere to walk fifteen miles to and from work every single day, I'm just suggesting that people walk to wherever they're going when it's reasonable to do so. It varies based on their health, but I'd think that a half-hour walk is a reasonable guideline to start with.
For a lot of people, this would be very easy, yet I've seen very few people walk anywhere.
I walk, largely because I don't want to pay the gas and insurance prices. My blind eye has something to do with it, too.
It seems like a really easy solution to me. Fifteen minutes each way to and from work. Half an hour (mostly uphill) to Wal-Mart and the surrounding shopping center. Five minutes to Food Lion. 45 minutes to the other end of town, in the event that I need something in that area.
And I do all of this with breathing problems, it's really not hard. Even though a lot of people have further to get where they need to, in most cases they should be able to find a way there without paying for gas. Public transportation, or bicycles perhaps? Admittedly, neither's a very good solution for grocery shopping, but for everything else it's easily workable if you're willing to expend a bit of energy.
Of course, the energy expenditure is probably the biggest problem for a lot of people...
If the car had "won", would everyone want to adopt Linux? No.
Putting your product, name or cause on a racecar is exactly why you don't see a "Windows" racecar.
Every time that car had a mishap, lots of jokes would be forthcoming.
This is the internet. We'll joke about everything, including the death of your great grandmother.

You definitely win this exchange. I can't top that.
I heard the distinctive "whoosh" of a joke sailing far above someone's head and came as fast as I could.
We were impressed by marble madness fake 3d,
I'm glad you were. I was too busy losing all the time. I still can't finish the last level, and getting through Silly (I think that was the name of it; the reversed gravity level) is still a bitch...
But if we do meet one, will we meet the one you think we'll meet?
Buying it.
While that may be true, I'm much more interested in matches between two humans rather than a human against AI.
Slashdot spam content is like the tide. Sometimes it's high, sometimes it's low, but it's always there.
Of course, we will not really know how accurate that prediction is until in about 20 to 40 million years. We might know sooner, if they screwed up.
And prosecuting her didn't ruin the life of her older self?

Does any rational person really give a fuck about such petty semantics?

But maybe Virginia just sucks.
Was your hometown smaller than 300 people by any chance?
That's not new.

Right or wrong, how does their track record of horrendous failures in security qualify them to tell someone else how to do it right?
Well, even if they don't know how to properly secure something, I giuess they at least know improper security when they see it.

If this isn't a parody then we need to get all the people with IQ >120 together and get them to start making babies
You know what? Let's start doing that anyway. I'm tired of being left out, damn it!
I haven't even seen it and I know where it's from!

Protesting declining literacy by... burning things people would read?
It'd make more sense to destroy televisions or something. At least make your publicity stunts not look self-defeating.
Reason 1: Because if the students end up losing all their money, they can't pay more tuition.
Reason 2: Because sometimes when hatred for the RIAA and reason get into a fight, reason gets its ass kicked.
Pick one, or both. Personally, I'm going with the second one.
Amusing that someone would spam with the subject "Re:Anti-spam".
Or maybe I'm just too easily amused by stupidity.
