    So if PETA condones eating artificially grown animal tissue, would they condone eating artificially grown human meat?

  5. Re:That's what you get with corrupt democrats... on Chicago's Camera Network Is Everywhere · · Score: 1

    Dude, I wasn't arguing with you. I was saying whether or not someone who's killed by a gun is a child is irrelevant. Guns are for killing things and deterrence (and to give some guys and galls ego a stroke). I happen to be satisfied with the status quo, at least where I live. Concealed permits are pretty easy to get.

    jbengt wasn't really going for the "kids fuck up and shoot each other" argument methinks... was saying people use guns to shoot other people. A point you inadvertently echoed. The difference is they think the answer is less guns, you think the answer is more guns.

  8. Re:Can we stop with the anti-ad sentiment? on Can We Really Tell Lossless From MP3? · · Score: 1

    "If you want to control every aspect of 'consumption', then take your crud offline and push it on television. There, you can 'maximize profit' by making your presentation as annoying as possible to your intended audience." You don't see the identical nature of advertising on the interwebs and on television? Maybe you aren't from the US or don't have cable, but I pay for internet AND television... on the same bill as a matter of fact. imo, ads on television are just intrusive (see: product placement). Quit bitching and ignore it like everyone else.

    MSFT in fact closed up 2.89% today. You're right that people forget, but that implies they knew in the first place. This summary seems a little overstated.

    "it seems certain that its relationship with T-Mobile will have taken a major knock"... mmhmmm. BAD Microsoft subsidiary; don't do that anymore.

  14. Re:Its justified price on Why Games Cost $60 · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    One person simply not buying a game may not do much to bring down prices. It takes complaining sometimes to get others on your side and assist in a boycott; which may or may not get results.

  15. Same Sandwich on FDA OKs First Human Trial of Neural Stem Cell Therapy · · Score: 1

    WTF are you kidding?

    Pick up a 50 cent roll from the bakery. Get individual (free) packets of condiments from the deli. Say you need 1/4 of ham (you don't): $1.5. 1 lb of tomatoes and a head of lettuce will just go bad, don't buy them. Maybe get a small side salad from Wendy's for $1.50 and use the lettuce and tomato from that, and eliminate... cottage cheese and fruit (applying these to sandwich cost is ridiculous *sigh*, you give a mouse a cookie...).

    $3.50 for a sandwich and salad. You don't need dressing, fatty.

    The HD is very, extremely real and even tangible. It's a ruby aura of beauty and contentment that is soft to the touch and fills your heart with joy (available only in select models-while synced with W7 in the presence of Steve Balmer-and God).

    This is what he was refering to. Do some research before you blaspheme the most glorious product God gave MS the divine wisdom to create... geez.
