Meh. Just as bad as *cough* DC Comics *cough* letting go of Superman in a garish, vulgar, transparent attempt to drum up business....then bringing him back, essentially, untouched.
If I ever get a new ID card I think I'll toss it in the microwave the day I get it
Oh my evil doppelganger strikes 'gain. Ummm...stupid much? You give out your DL number & social at least once a week. How is this different? Oh yes. That's right. Anonymous will read it from a distance. Uh huh.
You know what I like? When people download a 700MB.avi file of say....a full-length movie...and then drag-n-drop it onto a flash drive. And then they play it with Media player and ear buds.
Well amphetamines I can see, but weed? It doesn't exactly make your reflexes better and it's hard to pay attention when you laugh incessantly for no apparent reason. But I suppose it could help you focus more intently if... man my hands are HUGE... wait, what was I saying again?...
It'll be an old-fashioned Lan party lock-in. Just think: the Bloods and Crips will finally be forced to make peace with each other after decades of bloody street warfare. By morning, all will hug and gang violence will be relegated to the history books.
Nah. Just kidding; hire bikers with sawed-off pool cues and at the slightest provocation, start fracturing mandibles. And, in greater numbers, too.
(Or you could just let in people you know and trust. Who are those, you may ask? Hint: only the people you haven't met yet.)
Jebus, what a stupid site. These appear to be the rules:
1. Women do it = bad
2. Teamwork = bad
3. Metric system = bad
4. Being born not the largest man in the world = bad
5. Some kinds of judging (as of going out of bounds in track) = good, judging of other kinds (as of going out of bounds in gymnastics) = bad
6. Using muscles for brute force = good, using muscles for optimized technique = bad
I repeat: what a stupid site. The fact that this is the second time I've seen this crap modded up to +3, Insightful or better in two days does not speak well of Slashdot.
I disagree. If the IOC was truly the custodian of the spirit of peaceful international competition, as you imply with the above poorly-worded comment, it would not have awarded the games to China until its human rights record was much improved. The video is a commentary on this: it implies that awarding the games to China was *not* in keeping with the Olympic spirit. That being said, I fail to see how this video would not be considered fair use of the copyright (not to mention that I also find it hard to believe that the rings are copyrighted, rather than trademarked.) I suppose it's not worth the video producers' time to fight it.

You are in a "web" of computers all linked together. It is getting dark. You are likely to be eaten by a Linux sys admin.

When you reply to anomnomnomymous do you check the post anonymous box yourself?

Yeah, because a manned Mars mission is much more cost-effective than sending equipment one-way. Oh, I'm kidding; you, sir, are an idiot.
