  1. "Vaccine" on Anti-Smoking Vaccine Is Nearing the Market · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Another useful word lost: "vaccine".

  2. Ludacris on Response To California's Large-Screen TV Regulation · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Shut the hell up, all you fat asses with your ludakris-size TVs. Fat ass.

  3. Re:What is an OS anyway? on Google Releases Source To Chromium OS · · Score: 1

    Where's the beef?

    The network doesn't have enough beef. Godzilla data center don't mean squat with the uncertainty of network.

  4. Re:Not a government site on Accountability of the Scientific Stimulus Funding · · Score: 1

    The website contents reflect your claim. It mostly lists schools, total funding, and news reporting a few projects being funded. As to what those projects are about, not much if at all.

    It's a PR website, not very informative.

  5. Re:Patent troll or genuis (or both ?) on Former Microsoft CTO Builds Kitchen Laboratory · · Score: 1

    The troll will try to patent every god damn "dish" he and his chefs would cook up, both literally and figuratively.

  6. Re:Gee, it's almost like they have a monopoly or s on Less Than Free · · Score: 1

    Same with Microsoft in the '90s. Same shit over and over.

  7. Re:Next level stuff on Engineered Bacteria Glows To Reveal Land Mines · · Score: 1

    You could be wrong.

  8. Next level stuff on Engineered Bacteria Glows To Reveal Land Mines · · Score: 1

    I really like us to come up with better debugging techniques before we go further into these bio-engineering stuff.

  9. Re:"Everyone knows maintenance is boring" on We Really Don't Know Jack About Maintenance · · Score: 1

    You don't tell them you're doing that ... you just do it. It's quicker anyway...

    You could have made the wrong call, chasing dead end, the time is up and what was required is not done. Happens as often as not, though experiences improve your percentage.

    Yours is a utopian scenario.

  10. Re:The comment may also be complex.. on If the Comments Are Ugly, the Code Is Ugly · · Score: 1

    The code worked, but I didn't understand why and said so. Is that bad coding? It worked!

    Are you kidding? If it somehow stops "working" and they come to you (the author) to fix it, how will you fix it?

  11. Major douchebag on Mark Cuban's Plan To Kill Google · · Score: 1

    I'm puzzled by all the attention paid to that guy. From what I can see, the dude's a serial hustler who got lucky once (and big time) during dot-bomb bubble, and have been milking it ever since. At least other douches like Marc Andressen actually developed something of great signficance. What exactly has Cuban brought to the table?

  12. Fucking bullshit on Public School Teachers Selling Lesson Plans Online · · Score: 1

    I'd rather have the teachers teach our kids better and get fat, I mean FAT, bonuses, rather than peddling lesson plans for extra cash. The shit is seriously outta whack.

  13. Russian to me on Free Software For All Russian Schools In Jeopardy · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    At least have someone translate the piece before we can start waging verbal jihad, slashdot style. It could be talking about vodkas and hookers for all we know.

  14. Re:It's a trick question on Are You a Blue-Collar Or White-Collar Developer? · · Score: 1

    Oh yeah? You're fat.

  15. Re:It's a trick question on Are You a Blue-Collar Or White-Collar Developer? · · Score: 1

    A blue collar worker usually does manual labor and earns a wage, two things none of the developers I know do/get.

    What, you type with your nose and don't get no wage?

  16. Re:Is it such a bad thing? on Environmental Chemicals Are Feminizing Boys · · Score: 1

    Impossible. If you get down to it, life indeed is about busting each others' heads to survive/get ahead.

    Besides, what we consider "fair" is pretty damn arbitrary and gives "unfair" advantage to those who are more smart/hard-working/strong.

  17. Re:Is it such a bad thing? on Environmental Chemicals Are Feminizing Boys · · Score: 2, Funny

    "You forgot the two-faced backstabbing, the bald-faced lies, etc."

    Even worse, they nag. It even wears down my tinfoil helmet.

  18. Re:Dolls and tea sets? on Environmental Chemicals Are Feminizing Boys · · Score: 1

    "This article makes far reaching 'guesses' without any hard science to back it up."

    That's because it's a social science hiding behind irrelevant chemical stats to pretend that it's a science.

  19. Re:Solution on Environmental Chemicals Are Feminizing Boys · · Score: 1

    Sorry Chuck! I've been using moisturizer since hitting 40. All the hard drinking has been taking a toll on my skin, you see.

    I repent. But in, you know, manly way.

  20. Re:Rednecks? on Environmental Chemicals Are Feminizing Boys · · Score: 1

    Everyone think they and their kids are so special. If we only provided them with private tutoring, they'd be the next Einsteins, eh.

    Uniform education for K-12 gets East Asian kids to whip our kids' (and everyone else') butt.

  21. Re:The names alone should be enough for a ban on Caffeinated Alcoholic Drinks May Be Illegal · · Score: 1

    Pan-galactic Gargle Blaster, that's a good one. Make sure they cut it with Good Ol' Janx Spirit.

  22. Re:Mines a vodka and red bull... on Caffeinated Alcoholic Drinks May Be Illegal · · Score: 1

    Drug war produces its sidekick gang war. It also financed the drug cartels, civil wars in some Latin America (FARK, Sandinista, etc.). The collateral damage is arguably worse than the harm of drug use.

    Not to mention overcrowding prisons in CA, helping the state go bankrupt even faster.

  23. Sarcasm on The Languages of "The Office" · · Score: 1

    It has been a way for powerless losers to get back at uppity assholes. Doesn't work quite so well with group-think delivery, though.

  24. Re:Even Hollywood lawyers are out of ideas on MPAA Asks Again For Control Of TV Analog Ports · · Score: 1

    Seriously. FCC has no business deciding TV feature set. But FCC really should mandate all TVs sold to lawyers have circular screens with rabbit antenna.

  25. Kommie Abomination on China Lauds iPhone App That Spreads Gov't Views · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    You'll burn in hell for this, Apple!
