I imaging a room that looks like this: () The TV and Couch are on the curved walls and the corners are to the right and left. Maybe a Frank Lloyd Wright design or something.
Thank you for putting the Comic Book Guy image in my head. I re-read the review and it was much more enjoyable with the Comic Book Guy voice in my head.
They take great care of you, the pay is good, and the benefits are extraordinary and last long after you leave the service.

Second time today I've quoted this movie on slashdot. He's actually referring to joining the CIA but the sentiment is the same.
Over 40 blocks of high-speed cab? Reminds me of a scene from The In-Laws where Sheldon and Vince are in a speeding cab in New York: Sheldon: Are we stopped? Vince: Yes, we're stopped. Sheldon: Did we hit the little boy on 6th Avenue? Vince: No, we missed him by a good foot and a half.
The White House and Supreme Court haven't been mosaic'd but the House and Senate office buildings have. Guess someone only cares about the Legislative branch.
I don't know. Three devices were originally built. Trinity ("The Gadget") was the original device that was tested but was attached to a rig in the desert and not a deployable bomb of any kind. Little Boy and Fat Man were built but that was it for atomic bombs at the time (and were not the same bomb design). There were two different designs because there were two research paths in the Manhattan Project. Little Boy was a uranium-235 bomb and Fat Man was plutonium-239. Given the pace of the Manhattan Project they probably only had enough uranium-235 and plutonium-239 prepared for the three bombs. The US made more Fat Man bombs after the war (but not too many due to it's delicate nature) but probably couldn't have produced a third deployable bomb in the time frame necessary for the Japan bombings (Hiroshima and Nagasaki were three days apart).
The other interesting thing is that Fat Man (the bomb dropped on Nagasaki) was the last atomic device the US had. If Japan hadn't surrendered there was no third atomic option.
I second the "what point am I missing here?" question...campusfood.com has been around here for a number of years now. Maybe I missed something in skimming TFA.

You're not going to get the game free when you buy Windows (unless you pirate, but then you could do that for Linux too).
In which case you're probably not buying Windows, either.
And what does 1082 books equal measured in Libraries of Congress?
You know, that one almost makes sense.

Some think it the perfect place for a Mars moonbase."
Don't they remember what happened the last time we put a base on Phobos?
No, I didn't miss it. I was bringing some relevant humor to the conversation. Go see the movie, it's a funny one.

90% of the people on this planet are employed to clean up problems created by other people.
Being in the other 10% must be a lot of fun.

What if all of the spyware companies submitted high recommendations on their links?
But those spyware companies aren't in your circle of trust so it doesn't matter what they think about their websites.

I had the Monty Python song "Decomposing Composers" stuck it my head all yesterday and you just brought it back. Thanks.

This article is not about Henry Ford's assembly line, it's about the guy who built an assembly line after the Model-A was released. AKA "not news".
Frankly it's a brilliant idea.
And completely unoriginal.
I miss Kozmo. It was great when I was stuck in my freshman dorm with no car and no nearby retail establishments of any quality.

Stewie: From Dharma and Greg.
Brian: Hmm, I'm surprised there's anything left in it.
