  1. Well... if this were adopted worldwide... on Should We Eat Invasive Species? · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    ..white people would have been extinct centuries ago.

  2. Perplexing headline on Woman Successfully Grows Ear From Arm · · Score: 0

    I find it amusing that the converse of that headline would read "Ear Doesn't Grow On Woman's Arm." Nothing to see here. Please keep moving.

  3. Re:He Did Appear to Make a Threat Actually on Teenager Arrested In England For Criticizing Olympic Athlete On Twitter · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Fucking hell. I don't know whether I'm proud or ashamed that in America it's not illegal to be an asshole.

  4. Who decides? on New Rules Bring a "Credit Rating" For Users of Chinese Social Network · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I suppose here if your facts are different than the "official government facts" you're guilty of spreading falsehoods.

  5. IANAL equivalent on North Carolina Threatens To Shut Down Nutrition Blogger · · Score: 1

    Seems to me if he just included the dietary equivalent of IANAL in his signature he could sidestep most of this criticism. Such as: "I am not a licensed nutritional expert, but I do have experience and common sense, and I think..."

  6. Maybe we can combine some ideas here.. on Marketing Agency Uses Homeless As Wi-Fi Hotspots · · Score: 1

    Does the hotspot come with attachments so the homeless can strap them to their rickshaws?

  7. Baseball? on NASA To Investigate Mysterious 'Space Ball' · · Score: 1

    Strike one. Groan.

  8. Re:apple shmapple on iPhone 4 Prototype Finder Gets Probation · · Score: 1

    I was playing devil's advocate in the same stylistic fashion as another commenter. Would you like eggs with that hate?

  9. apple shmapple on iPhone 4 Prototype Finder Gets Probation · · Score: 1

    If you are a gigantic corporation that doesn't give two shits about anyone who doesn't invest in your corporation and you entrust a prototype of a forthcoming product to a nincompoop lackey who loses it in a fucking BAR, you bring the full force of your influence over the local police department right down on the head of the stupid sonofabitch who finds said prototype. High profile embarrassments demand ACTION! NOW! HARDER! GET HIM!

  10. If you care, do something about it. on Ask Slashdot: What To Do With Other People's Email? · · Score: 1

    Sure, you could just delete them or filter them and leave it be. But if you want to do something nice for a stranger (but a stranger who shares your name, which kinda puts you in a special club), why not perpetrate some special trickery in order to determine the person to whom the emails are intended so you may contact them to inform you're receiving mail intended for them. It's really a shame that you can't simply mark emails with "return to sender, addressee not known." It's easy to not care. I'm not suggesting making this your life's effort, but doing something nice for someone you don't know is always a good way to please the cosmos.

  11. Read it? on New Book Reports Soviets Behind Roswell UFO Scare · · Score: -1

    I wish there were a tick box beside each comment's subject reading thusly: __ I have read the book. __I have not read the book. It's important to categorize the debunkers.

  12. They have a record of doing this... on Japanese Government Will Censor Fukushima "Illegal Information" · · Score: 1, Insightful

    And so the official underreporting and censorship of the magnitude of the Fukushima incident by official governmental agencies begins. Or, really, continues. And all I got was this irradiated tee-shirt.

  13. Gimme a break... on Fellow Hackers Blast Geohot For Sony Settlement · · Score: 0, Troll

    An indignant hacker? What's next? Shoplifters of the world uniting?

  14. ehhhhhhhh on SlashTweaks Let YOU Micro-Edit Slashdot · · Score: 1

    I don't like this.

  15. Steve Jobs Mansion on Ask Slashdot: Is the Recycle Bin a Good GUI Metaphor? · · Score: 1, Funny

    Rename the Recycle Bin "Steve Jobs Mansion" and a committee will prevent you from emptying it for 10 years.

  16. No. on Egyptian Father Names His Daughter "Facebook" · · Score: 1

    Someone tell New York Times Johnson he ain't trending no more.

  17. hmm on Play Pacman, Pinball, and Pong With a Paramecium · · Score: 1

    If I said "duck vaginas" would anyone know to what I'm referring?

  18. Well hey now... on Nobel Prize Winner Says DNA Performs Quantum Teleportation · · Score: 1

    Looks like I've got some new ammo for those paternity test results. Those little quantum-tunneling buggers! Nothing in space-time could have held them back!

  19. So long future Apple licensing, Gearzap. on Covert Video of Apple IPad 2 Just Released · · Score: 1

    TSIA

  20. You gotta love the polls. on Survey Shows That Fox News Makes You Less Informed · · Score: 1

    My favorite part of Fox News is the polls they conduct, and how they are always very skewed toward the conservative angle. Because liberals DON'T WATCH FOX NEWS. The only liberals watching Fox News are comedy writers.

  21. oh puleeze on Learning From Gawker's Failure · · Score: 1

    Thinking any password sacrosanct on this here interwebs is ridiculous. The self-satisfied Gawker-enthusiast is the very type of person who should know better.

  22. smarter who? on Oxford Scientists Say Dogs Are Smarter Than Cats · · Score: 2, Interesting

    The co-evolution of humans and dogs is so wonderfully intertwined that canines are the only animals in the kingdom that can follow an extended finger to see where a person is pointing, rather than just staring at an extended finger. But if you point at a cat it quickly runs away. So, smarter who?

  23. catch 22 on Kindle Allowing Chinese Unfettered Access To Web · · Score: 1

    It's a catch 22. How else are people going to learn about it if nobody talks about it and if people talk about it it's gonna get yanked. Wow. I read that sentence and realized how depressingly accurately it describes truth in American politics.

  24. wax off, wane on on US Negotiators Cave On Internet Provisions To ACTA · · Score: 1

    It kills me to realize that US power and influence is justifiably minuscule. My cun (-try) my cun (same), what have we done. But we're such a noble country. We invaded Iraq to unseat a ruthless tyrant. Is it our fault we didn't bother to formulate a plan that dealt with protecting the Iraqi people after the collapse of their government? We gotta do every little thing? It's not our fault we lied about intelligence reports and totally made up a pretense to justify invading a country that had absolutely nothing to do with the assault on the Twin Towers. So we undermined the leadership of so many countries in order to prop up pro-US leaders. What me worry. I just don't understand why the US isn't worshiped as a god. Like, totally.

  25. white holes... black holes... on Hawking Radiation Claimed Created In a Lab · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I can't fucking stand the racism in scientific research these days. They are ALL holes. Your momma taught you better....
