And there is no such thing as a NIC card, or for that matter a PIN number. Sigh. Sorry, its just irritating.
I agree. It's irritating to me, but I feel like a pedantic ass to be irritated. I wish people would just leave the base noun out when they invent acronyms and we could have things like AT machines, NI cards, and GN Unix (ha ha).
So if you browse the web on your Palm or a flat-panel monitor, the web gets cooler? How about projection screens? I've never seen anything projected except crappy Powerpoint slides, so I don't know.

Neither he nor any of his colleagues had any freaking idea people would go so far. They were placing bets that people would stop on the first or second level, but almost everyone went all the way.

No way, bro; Episode I is worse. I'm sure kids today see right through all the plot holes. They only buy the toys because LucasArts is so good at playing the nostagia card to make us buy in to the hype. George Lucas' muse left him a long time ago.

You probably know this by now, but they were having sex those Saturday mornings.
Yeah, because it was rerun last night.

It's spelled "Jesse". That is how men spell it. Ask King Solomon's grandfather.

Speedy means not 10 years later. Or infinity years. That's the kind of crap the really nasty governments pull.
He was exaggerating for comedic effect.
Yeah, and the retards spelled it wrong, too.
I don't see much Javascript, but I do take offense at the loud Flash intro. "ZERRROOOOM. ZERRROOOOOOM."
No, WWII was started by Hitler not getting into art school. Or maybe getting his penis bit by a goat.
Yeah, what's up with that? Can't people just look in the status bar? I know that IE, Netscape, and Opera all have that feature.
I check it for almost every link I click on, unless it's pretty obvious from the context I'm just going to another page on that site.

Wear a sweater.
Man, it's a rip-off; you only get the Horadric Staff for like, two minutes.
Yeah, my penis can cut silk.
Hey, where'd all the women go?
You couldn't. Then Microsoft decided it would be cool if your email client did whatever your incoming email told it to.

See! Some guy named Eskil modeled for that image! Yuck!
No wonder all you Swedes are so suicidal, all your hot naked chicks are really guys.

Did anyone else read that as the Slashdot-endorsed opposite of Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt?
Or am I on drugs?
