Blasphemy! May the Lord strike thee down with a mighty vengeance! May His turtleneck-clad arm rain righteous retribution down upon thee, and may all thy children and thy children's children be cast into the fiery pits of Unpopularity!
To be precise, there is no theory that says your grandfather was a monkey. The religious nuts made that straw-man up all on their own.:P
I beg to differ. Although still struggling for broad acceptance, the theory that you are the retarded offspring of 5 monkeys and a fish-squirrel is being taught in our schools.
I never knew the full depth of Jack Chick's disconnect with reality until now... 7 gamers - 4 of them attractive girls and not a single one - of any them - overweight!
As I read your post I'm really not sure whether some Apple version of Poe's Law best describes any attempt to assess the nature of your post(parody vs true believer). You could have just as easily been modded funny, like this earlier post.
Where do I get one? Is there a code word I have to use at the Apple store? When I get it home, will it, like, you know, do "stuff" to me?
In answer to your questions:
1) At the Apple Store.
2) Code Phrase: "I have a prototype iSlate back at my place".
3) It will, but the "stuff" it does may not be what you're thinking. Think "Different".
...it's a safe bet that more than a few of the people he stabbed in the back were planning to stab him in the back if he hadn't acted first.
Hear, hear! It's a little known fact that the switchblade knife industry skyrocketed in Ukraine before Stalin got wise to their plans, and preemptively struck at over 6 million would-be backstabbers.
The humans had a huge mineshaft gap over the neanderthals, and were smart enough to keep 10 women for every one man in their mines!
Are you saying that the cavemen weren't smart enough to provide themselves with any kind of survivability insurance? Sounds like they could've used Geico.
More likely they just want some money. Bill Gates did the same thing when he started his charitable organization, so maybe they are planning on starting a charity. Or maybe they want to buy some islands somewhere. Or a small country.
It's just that they tunnel lobbying founds in a way that has a chance to appear more, in each case, to those who are tricked into existence of real two party system.
I tried to parse this sentence for over a minute before figuring out the misspelled funds. Unfortunately, that discovery has contributed little-to-nothing to my comprehension of the sentence, so I'm just gonna give up and assume it was about some kind of big-business/shadow-government conspiracy theory.

With the ability to alternate between a black-and-white as-readable-in-direct-light-as-eInk mode and a standard color LCD mode, both with fast (normal LCD) refresh rates, and cost to manufacture on par with current LCD displays, this technology is the future of tablets (which will subsume the eReader market). And the first product, the Notion Ink Adam, is coming out this year.

Wow, that's the first time I've seen that used where ???? has about eighty possible inputs, all of which make sense.
And yet none of them...

...in favor of a biography of the ancient philosopher Confucius starring Chow-Yun Fat
I expect an outpouring of sympathy from the international community at such a flagrant disregard of the basic human right to not suffer through another Chow Yun Fat performance.
I don't know why this is currently modded OT. Although I believe that China's socio-politico-economic situation is very different (and less conducive to capitalism and the innovation that comes with some form of intellectual property protection) from Japan's circa 1970, I still find your observation about the similarity in the stages of each of their industrial/commercial progress to be interesting. Hopefully some mods will come along to rectify your current moderation and consequently encourage discussion.
It's exactly this kind of Terran-centric Isolationism that has retarded the development of diplomatic relations with our closest neighbor. Reacting with fear to their obviously friendly overtures, doesn't help either.

Don't feed the troll!
You, sir, have just fed the troll. Congratulations, you're an idiot.
If irony were strawberries we'd all be feeding the trolls smoothies right now.
To be fair, though, they have been saving a crapload on bandwidth costs.

You are imagining a vast conspiracy of secrecy where there is none.

I'd like to take this Opportunity to, say, Europa.
The funds are tunneled through lobbyists in a way that has a greater chance of being tolerated, maybe.
Good enough?
Yes. This makes your point quite clear to me. Thank you.
