  1. It IS kinda colorful on Diablo III Designer Defends New Look and Feel · · Score: 1

    It's like Tim Burton did Diablo I and II, and fucking Joel Schumacher took over for Diablo III. Kinda. I'm reserving judgment until I actually play the game, though.

  2. Veni, vidi, vici on Knights Templar Sue the Pope · · Score: 1

    Yeah yeah, Assassin's Creed.. played it, beat it.

  3. Evil plot on 2008 Mozilla Summit Affected By Rock Slide · · Score: 1

    Immediately after the rock slide, several figures were seen at the top of the mountain, cackling evilly. They wore shirts with a strange blue lowercase "e" on them.

  4. Re:The worst part on DHS Allowed To Take Laptops Indefinitely · · Score: 1

    I dunno, man. If I had a device I was building that looks like putty/plastic with a circuit board and a battery attached to it, I'd have the common sense to NOT bring it on board a flight. It really does look suspicious as hell.

  5. Re:Sex is bad, mmkay? on Spore Almost Ready for Production, Complete With "Sporn" · · Score: 1

    Oh for sure, the US is better than some Islamic countries. But we still suck. Europe has the right idea.

  6. Sex is bad, mmkay? on Spore Almost Ready for Production, Complete With "Sporn" · · Score: 1

    Welcome to the uptight U.S. of A. This is still mostly a puritan country as far as sex is concerned, nowhere near as sexually progressive as, say, The Netherlands. I agree, the whole "sex is as bad as violence" shit has always bugged the hell out of me. Maybe as future generations grow up and have their own kids, we'll collectively start to move away from that mindset.

  7. Re:Does that qualify as irony? on Red Hat Bets Big On Cloud Target · · Score: 2, Informative

    Well, a bunch of Wiki editors agreed on a definition.

  8. Re:You wonder? on Citizens Spy On Big Brother · · Score: 5, Funny

    I personally am tired of the discrimination against left-handed people.

  9. Re:Where's the pictures? on Caltech Shows Off a Lensless, Miniaturized Microscope · · Score: 1

    Sorry, but the new microscope is too small to photograph, even by another microscope. In a few years, we'll have another new microscope that will be able to photograph this current new microscope, which will at that point be obsolete.

  10. I can't log off! I'll lose my OS! on Windows Is Dead – Long Live Midori? · · Score: 1

    Parent: "Timmy, I'm grounding you from the Internet! You can still use your computer for other stuff, just no more surfing and online games." Timmy: "B-but.. that's impossible!" Parent: "No, it's not! Your grades have dropped, you--" Timmy: "No, I mean it's literally impossible!"

  11. Did he take it well? on DNS Attack Writer a Victim of His Own Creation · · Score: 5, Funny

    I wonder if, when he got attacked, he just leaned back in his big leather chair, and chuckled, "Well played, sir, well played."

  12. This won't work on Police Shame Pranksters On YouTube · · Score: 1

    Like situations with pranksters and bullies alike, you're just giving them what they want: attention. If I came up with some hilarious script to use to prank 999, and it made it to YouTube, I'd be thrilled! The only people who will feel ashamed are those who placed legit calls that got misinterpreted as pranks (e.g. "help, I got raped by a donkey while wanking in a field").

  13. Re:Looks Lame on Leaked Wolverine Origin Trailer Makes the Rounds · · Score: 1

    They didn't want to take over the world, from what I remember. They basically put themselves in charge of cleansing Gotham from time to time. A noble intention, just carried out the wrong way. Seriously, did you even watch the movie?

  14. Re:Looks Lame on Leaked Wolverine Origin Trailer Makes the Rounds · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Yeah, so? We had how many films about Batman? Then, "Batman Begins" dives into Wayne's past, similarly as this movie is diving into Logan's, and is a huge hit.

  15. I had an "experiment" in the Mojave too on Microsoft's "Mojave Experiment" Teaser Site Goes Live · · Score: 1

    And I still get weird flashbacks of me crawling naked through the desert with a tribe chief on my back.

  16. Re:WHAT? on Critiquing Claims of an Open Source Jobs Boom · · Score: 1

    Ah crap, you beat me to it, I see. ;) Well-played..

  17. Well, good for Apple on Critiquing Claims of an Open Source Jobs Boom · · Score: 1

    I'm glad Steve Jobs finally decided to open source everything. Boom!

  18. Re:No, you must be clueless on Pittsburgh Cancer Center Warns of Cell Phone Risks · · Score: 5, Funny

    I dunno, man, I don't have to worry about this stuff at all. I have a buddy with no balls who carries my cell phone for me, and a guy with no brain takes all my calls. Incidentally, the guy with no balls comes in handy when people want to roshambo me for something.

  19. No, you must be clueless on Pittsburgh Cancer Center Warns of Cell Phone Risks · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Bluetooth RF emissions are way way way lower than cell phones. Give it some thought. Bluetooth has an operating range of about 30-50 feet or so. Cell phones can reach cell towers that are miles away.

  20. Re:I could never use Drupal on Building Powerful and Robust Websites With Drupal 6 · · Score: 1

    Not really. Drupal is pronounced "DROO-puhl," sounds a bit like "ruble."

  21. Sue-happy on Metallica May Follow In Footsteps of Radiohead, NIN · · Score: 1

    Regardless of where anyone stands on the P2P issue, Metallica is a bunch of money-grubbing whores. Remember this?: http://music.yahoo.com/read/news/12044721
