    Worst. Moment Ever.

    Her singing "Fuel" on a Metallica tribute show on MTV. It sucked worse than you think it did. No, worse than that. It was worse than I thought it was, too, and I fscking loathed it.

  11. Re:Blurry tracers on GTA To Appear On Xbox and Gamecube In 2004 · · Score: 1

    According to one of the GTA:VC sites I read, it was to simulate the Miami swimming-in-the-bathtub humidity. :)

  12. Re:First of all on Slashback: Hawash, Monomania, Rocketships · · Score: 1

    Depends on which Kong you're talking about. The original 1933 version was that size. Here's an illustration of the original versus what he looked like in this one from King Kong versus Godzilla.

  15. Re:We *are* genetically engineered to be intellige on Double Helix: 50 Years of DNA · · Score: 1

    but the only new ingredient we add is time

    If you add a grain or two of sand to your soup, you are unlikely to notice it.

    Now add a handful of sand. You begin to notice the grittiness.

    Now dump an entire beach of sand onto your dining room table.

    Adding ingredients is relative, even if it is only one new one.

    Now, I know you're a troll (even if you may not realize it), but go read this, take a look at the image it talks about, then have a little sit down and realize that this planet we're on (and all of your "intelligent designs") are more meaningless than one microscopic speck of silica in the entire ocean.

    (Where's a Total Perspective Vortex when you need one....)

  16. Re:Why? on The Future of Leap Seconds · · Score: 2, Insightful

    First of all, whether or not an observer can tell how many matches are in a matchbox is immaterial--nay, completely unrelated to the fact that there is a particular number of matches in the box, a precise number that can be determined.

    Secondly, time needs not be exact for most people most of the time, but perhaps you can recognize that there are certain applications, especially scientific and technological, for which a measure of exactitude is quite necessary.

    Thirdly, I would venture to say that the society depicted in 1984 would rather that people be unable to tell what time it was.

    Lastly, all these fitful worries are meaningless, because my man Flavor Flav always knows what time it is. Word.

  17. Re:bored with first person shoot em ups on Carmack On Doom III And The Evolution Of Graphics · · Score: 1

    Yeah, I don't think in my wildest nightmares (and I've had a few lately, what with wearing a nic patch to bed; don't get me started) that Carmack/Id will bungie himself/itself. 'Course, I never thought Bungie would either. :) Point being, I've had to take most Mac game product announcements with a few packetfuls of salt for the past four years, especially the ones made during keynotes.

    "There is no spoon" indeed. Bleh. Have you ever tried to eat Grape Nuts with a knife and fork? Or even better, chopsticks???

    I think trying to eat chopsticks would be hard no matter what you used. ;)
