Made the mistake of saying Godzilla had been spotted, and was heading their way. There was a lot of screaming and they dropped the phone and ran. My ANI has been blocked from calling any phone number in Japan ever since.
...what happens if I switch my battery or plug it into my car lighter...
Well, if it's a battery that provides profit to MS, probably nothing. But, if it's a competetively-priced aftermarket battery, or different belt-clip, or one of those candy-colored covers, it may set off the magnesium microcharge inside and burn through the circuit board. On the other hand, it's an MS product, so the charge will most likely not work, so go nuts!
"Hello. It seems you are trying to make a call. Would you like some hints on dialing your phone? Did you know that you can change the ring on your phone to 24 gratingly annoying, off-key tunes?
To shut down your phone, please press the TALK button."
That can't be right. To quote Roy Munson: Who's done more research than the good people at the American Tobacco Industry? They say its harmless. Why would they lie? If you're dead, you can't smoke.
Anyway, what will happen when the sensors catch someone picking in the nose?
Never mind that, imagine that Taco gets one to watch over meetings of the/. editors. What does it do when it catches someone pouring hot grits in their pants, or "doing the goatse"?
Cool! Once this is out, the "Double Anchovy and White Castle only" add-on will be at the top of every BOFH's Christmas list, right behind Ye Olde Etherkiller.

Basically, as I understand it, it allows closer to 100% use of your CPU at any time.
Sssoooo... Dr. Watson will use 99.5% of my CPU, rather than just 99%?
The FCC made some arbitrary rules? What are the chances of THAT happening?

Was ANYBODY able to find Al Gore in those clips?

How is this [microsoft.com] a "familiar Windows environment", other than a vaguely-XP scheme?
Lots of blue, and Teletubby-ish theming.

At least from me, anyways.
Sigh. Not even a tank, I suppose.
Quiet! I'm trying to watch the Super Bowl. If people don't support this thing, it might not catch on.
But does it keep Major League Baseball from spying on us from space?
Give me 10 dozen nippers for a nickel, we would say...
But the important thing was, I had an onion on my belt. We couldn't get white onions, because of the war and all...

Good news boy! I found an electronics store that carries leeches. Well, actually, it was more of a bait shop...

Huh. No wonder that lady was carrying on about someone named Fluffy. What was I smoking?
A boring movie titled "Itanic", starring an effeminate man-boy and a chubby love interest.
Ouch! Wouldn't that hurt your arm? How well do wristwatches burn, anyway?
Walt Disney is dead, you hear me? Dead. Not frozen, not with Elvis: dead and buried.
Why not with Elvis? Elvis IS dead, you know.
I was in Nashville last summer, and almost saw Elvis, but my shovel broke.
I don't care how low your uid is, I still find your referring to employees as drones to be patronising and arrogant.
That's right. Please refer to them more accurately. Call them "lusers".
