    even when you are busy doing very important stuff with your phone!

    I know, man! If I stop now, I lose all my points! Just gimme a second, okay?

    Some of those calls aren't related to the meeting? Or are they just 'hooking up'? Not everyone can be there, you know. Just asking...

  3. I can only hold a conversation on LeBron or Beyonce for about two minutes before I am bored.

    Just go out and visit with the chauffeur... The 'fresh air' will pep you right up. You'll want to talk to everybody.

  4. You are stealing souls!

  5. I remember a similar scam on Countries Gaming Carbon Offsets May Have Dramatically Increased Emissions · · Score: 3, Insightful

    "Cash for Clunkers". It made the absolute most out the broken window fallacy. As long as pollution is profitable, there will always be plenty to spread around.

    You better throw the new Bay Bridge into the discount bin. It's hardly worth a wooden nickle.

  7. Whoops! Didn't see THAT coming, did we? on Countries Gaming Carbon Offsets May Have Dramatically Increased Emissions · · Score: 1

    People are making money. The system is working exactly as designed. Corruption and deceit is rewarded, as always.

    The wind will carry it off. Has the potential to be very embarrassing.

    How? If I gave permission with the order, they can land on my property. They just have to hover down from 350 feet.

    And they'll still work when there's no power for that ridiculous 3D printer

    Oh shit! *Solar panels not included*? Send it back! Damn vulture capitalists... They should just open a 7/11 and sell speculums there. Buy two, get one free..

    Well, you know, a doctor with his bag of tricks could wander by and give a hand. In a country like India, with its heavily suppressed wages, there has to be a demand that the government fill in (yeah, I know, commies). Of course that same popular demand could fix a whole bunch of much more basic problems, but what the hell, start small.

    they cost about $0.90 each at retail

    A day's wages in some places. The community printer can make a bunch to give away... Oops! I know what you're thinkin'... Those damn commies are at it again! Pretty sneaky, huh?

  16. What 'commodities' were they using? Gold and platinum, with a dash of uranium?

    Government subsidies are what keep petroleum 'competitive'. Where would we have been without them?

    amsung managed to create a useless feature, with no backup plan in case of failure.

    That's where you're wrong. The 'backup' plan is to get you to trade up to a phone with an asymmetrical pen, which only costs 50 dollars more

    This is precisely what I am addressing. Renting out a cereal bowl because you're not using it at the moment is not 'sharing'. Sharing is supposed to be an offering, not an exchange. Madison Avenue has a different opinion. Same thing happened to the 'Cloud'. Aw, what the hell, where do I sign up? How much do cereal bowls rent for these days?

    These are the kind of people that we are suppose to seek out to make public policy (try to imagine a congress/parliament full of them), instead of the spoon fed sociopathic carny hucksters that make their (and our) lives so difficult. We give power to the wrong people.
