  1. Re:Best skies I've ever seen. on Making War On Light Pollution · · Score: 0

    I was really depressed when I visited Las Vegas because the sky was so oppressive and black. Even here in Kansas City, there are starts, but so few that you can count them. I really want to move to the country when I grow older so I can live under the stars like we were before.

  2. Coincidence? on Sony Dismisses Critics of Lair · · Score: 4, Funny
    From the article:

    "That was the start of one catastrophe after the other -- deaths in the family at the worst time [and] sudden surgeries for key members, which bounced the technology off-track. And just in general, every single time there was a crucial delivery, something bizarre went wrong -- all the way to power outages when writing the master disks." Not to mention art directors eaten by dragons!
  3. Re:Except we can change the launch costs. on The Next Fifty Years In Space · · Score: 0

    Pollution is not a big problem in space? What are you talking about! If we pollute space, then where will we go when the Earth is toast from global warming when we have UNIVERSAL WARMING!!

  4. Re:Might I be the first to say... on Google Earth Flight Simulator · · Score: -1

    It's not, actually. Many of Blizzard's games are released on Mac and Windows simultaneously.

  5. Obligatory on Arm Wrestling Machine Recalled for Breaking Arms · · Score: -1, Redundant

    I, for one, welcome our new arm-breaking robot overlords.

  6. Re:Big ol' mug... on MIT Team Creates Cancer Stem Cells · · Score: 3, Funny

    "Hello, Husband. How was work? I made you a cup of your FAVORITE COFFEE. It's fresh... Now drink up. Drink it ALL... Feel anything? No? You will in a few years."

  7. Re:Sigh on MySpace Age Verification - for Parents · · Score: 1

    I'm 14, and from what I understand, my parents don't spy on me. They don't need to because I'm honest, and tell the truth when they ask. Neither do I do anything bad. Also, I'd hardly call it "spying." Parents have a right to know what their child is doing. But what the children don't know is that they can avoid being pried upon if they tell the truth and not be so secretive when asked.

  8. Doesn't Matter on NASA Can't Pay for Killer Asteroid Hunt · · Score: 1

    Whether or not we find the asteroids, there's nothing we can do it about them if one is going to hit us.

  9. Re:Ok, so in layman's terms... on Does the Internet Need a Major Capacity Upgrade? · · Score: 1

    That's right. It's not a big truck, we just can't dump all the YouTube videos we want on it.

  10. Re:"God Says it" on Kansas Adopts New Science Standards · · Score: 1

    "And let's not even get started on the fact that the bible Americans read has been translated. There are many phrases which can be translated multiple ways. Plus with the old testiment the English language can't properly represent the multiple meanings of Hebrew words, and so much is lost in translation." Being the nephew of two Lutheran pastors, I know that to become a pastor you must be able to read the dialects of greek and hebrew that the Holy Bible are written in. So, if you want to see the Holy Bible untranslated so you can read it without confusion, ask a pastor (or, at least, a Lutheran Missouri Synod pastor, which I think my uncles are) or learn hebrew and greek. If you're not willing to, then please don't go around saying "It's wrong because it's translated." Also, most Bibles have footnotes listing other alternative meanings to words and often rephrase entire verses in the other possible translation.

  11. Re:Sex or violence? on FCC Report - TV Violence Should be Regulated · · Score: 1

    No, we call them something worse.

  12. Re:Please take care of Linus on Godwin's Law Invoked in Linus/Gnome Spat · · Score: 1

    The mom said fuck...

  13. Re:Choose wisely on Scientists Expose Weak DNA in HIV · · Score: 1

    No, we must seek to understand it, and see if we can co-exist peacefully. Perhaps come to a compromise.

  14. Re:Shhhhhhh on Iraq Study Group Reaches Concensus · · Score: 1

    Actually, I think making Iraq the 51st state is a good idea.

    Oh, and maybe Afghanistan, too. And maybe if we go into Iran, make them the 53rd.

  15. Re:The religious right is against Homeric themes on Illinois Ban On Explicit Video Games Is Unconstitutional · · Score: 1

    If you ask me, this bill was used to get the Christian vote by whatever politician who proposed it.
