  7. Penis on Auto Incorrect · · Score: 1

    when I first got my iPhone, I was typing a message and the autocorrect changed one word to penis. The strange thing was that the word I was trying to type did not bear any resemblance to penis. I thought I had found some sort of strange easter egg, but could not reproduce the error.

  14. If you are paying for pirated movies... on RIAA, MPAA Recruit MasterCard As Internet Police · · Score: 1

  17. NOT gay on New Tech Promises Cheap Gene Sequencing In Minutes · · Score: 1, Insightful

  25. Re:What will they eat... on Iron-Eating Bug Is Gobbling Up the Titanic · · Score: 1
    This was exactly my point. These critters did not magically appear on the titanic. They just happened to show up where we are already looking.

    More importantly, I think this underscores once again the fact that there are multitudes of life forms under the sea that remain undiscovered yet we keep blasting all the big bucks into cold dark space.
