  1. Re:I for one am shocked on Bill Gates Doesn't Work At Microsoft Anymore · · Score: 2, Funny

    Well, he did make those commercials...

  2. Re:Parodies of trademarks are not protected on ThinkGeek's Best Ever Cease-and-Desist Letter · · Score: 2, Funny

    I agree, trademark laws should be loosened, or lost altogether. I'm at a loss to explain how I came to that decision though... I may just lose my mind. If that should happen, I pray they don't turn me loose on the unsuspecting public.

  3. Re:24 hours straight? Dangerous! on Solar-Powered Ultralight To Try 24-Hour Flight · · Score: 1

    Not enough to keep hundreds of thousands of motorists awake each year, why would it be different for this bloke?

  4. Re:They should switch to FMRI. on The Truth About the Polygraph, According To the NSA · · Score: 3, Informative

    Tighten that sphincter.

  5. Re:Polygraph on The Truth About the Polygraph, According To the NSA · · Score: 1

    Sounds like Colonel Flagg

  6. Re:Eventually they'll get it right on Second Straight Rocket Failure For South Korea · · Score: 1

    Once, during the cold war, it meant non-aligned nation. Now it means the under-developed world, the have-nots. The point that you're taking offense to is that if SK can't do it, the 3rd world dictators shouldn't be able to as well.

  7. Re:You mean THAT'S what the game is all about? on Theremin Guitar Hero · · Score: 1

    I may have been too young at the time, but I never could get the one-liners to work...

  9. Re:At first I wondered if it was real... on Steak-Scented Billboard Entices Drivers · · Score: 1

    Driving a steak through somethings heart would take some mighty doings, or a freezer...

  10. Re: Air Pollution on Steak-Scented Billboard Entices Drivers · · Score: 2, Insightful

    It's called a craving, it only feels bad because your body chemistry is messed up from eating too much processed soy products. Also in your head, like the difference between being tickled and .... aroused.

  11. Re:I have [a] few friends on Study Finds That "Extreme Gamers" Play 48 Hours a Week · · Score: 1

    Hardly any console games are actually rendered at 720p... (claim to support != rendered at)

  12. Re:I have [a] few friends on Study Finds That "Extreme Gamers" Play 48 Hours a Week · · Score: 1

    I use a 5.1 surround headset, specifically the Razer Barracuda HP-1.

  13. Re:Pfft. on Video Gamers Have Power Over Their Dreams · · Score: 1

    Both.

  14. Re:Conspiracy Theories on Gulf Oil Leak Plugged? · · Score: 1

    Also, what is a coat card cutter?

  15. Re:Won't see 1000x for a few years. on Titanium Oxide For High-Density Optical Storage · · Score: 2, Funny

    Go go personal anecdote, I had a 486SX33 with 24MB RAM 210MB HDD and 4xCDROM drive.

  16. Re:Competition on Google PAC-MAN Cost 4.8M Person-Hours · · Score: 1

    Or you need to take Dumbo out of the DVD player and put in some good ol' Backdraft

  17. Re:Gaps between monitors on AMD Multi-Display Tech Has Problems, Potential · · Score: 1
  18. Re:Woa No gmod mention! on How PC Game Modders Are Evolving · · Score: 1

    Also, a tetris clone.

  19. Re:The article draws weird conclusions. on Black Duck Eggs and Other Secrets of Chinese Hacks · · Score: 1

    What does cured salmon have to do with bagels?

  20. Re:Gaps between monitors on AMD Multi-Display Tech Has Problems, Potential · · Score: 1

    Be sure to get the kind that can flip the image left-right and a nice clean white semisheer bedsheet to project onto from behind.

  21. Re:Pirates! Yarrr! on Rockstar Ships Max Payne 2 Cracked By Pirates · · Score: 2, Informative

    Pirates and privateers are similar but distinctly different. One group are thieves on the sea, and the others are thieves on the sea with permission from the king of one country to attack the vessels of another country.

  22. Re:Achievement: on Civilization V To Use Steamworks · · Score: 1

    Not much of an achievement. That happens all the time. IIRC, all a battleship can do against an enemy land tile is bombard it, which never results in unit death. Now if you meant gunship, that's different.

  23. Re:Wrong on Estimating Game Piracy More Accurately · · Score: 1

    I didn't know that the state fair was THE place you had to get rid of your badgers to.

  24. Re:Moot point on GIMP Resynth vs. Photoshop Content Aware · · Score: 1

    Didn't that change recently?

  25. Re:Signed int on Man Spends 2,200 Hours Defeating Bejeweled 2 · · Score: 1

    I thought Sarah Palin was just one of Fey's characters...
