  1. Drones? on Ask Slashdot: Time To Regulate Domestic Drones? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    So, basically, any machine that flies and is remotely operated is a drone nowadays? This 'drone' word is being way overused.

  2. Re:Megalomanic on New Unix Implementation Turns 30 · · Score: 1, Troll

    I think maybe you mean dyslexia judging by your spelling...

  3. Re:Could it be something more basic? on Humans Choose Friends With Similar DNA · · Score: 1

    Belgians. King Leopold and all that...

  4. Re:WW on New Doctor Who Actor To Be Revealed This Sunday · · Score: 1

    With butter on them.

  5. Re:Needs New Writer Instead on New Doctor Who Actor To Be Revealed This Sunday · · Score: 1

    I wholeheartedly agree with this astute assessment.

  6. Re:Rupert Grint? on New Doctor Who Actor To Be Revealed This Sunday · · Score: 1

    You trust Stephen Moffat? Did you not notice how utterly crap the most recent series was? He has exhausted whatever usefulness he supposedly had...

  7. Re:No Monty Python reference yet? on Humans Have Been Eating Cheese For At Least 7,500 Years · · Score: 1

    John Cleese's actual family name was originally Cheese. His father changed it.

  8. Re:Irony on Disney to Acquire Lucasfilm, Star Wars Episode 7 Due In 2015 · · Score: 1

    The Black Hole was actually a pretty dark film so my guess at why it failed at the time was that it really wasn't good for kids. I watched it recently and it stands up reasonably well. I watched the first three Star Wars films fairly recently and guess what? They stood up reasonably well - with the emphasis on reasonably!

  9. Re:Pandora's Problem is repetition on Pandora Shares Artist Payment Figures · · Score: 1

    Sorry, no. Prefer this from the 70s: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mTKCKBu8CLI

  10. Re:Eh, maybe... on The Futility of the Ongoing Piracy War · · Score: 1

    Ah, those prating knaves at PrateBay!

  11. Re:Malcolm Clarke was right on BBC Radiophonic Workshop Revived Online · · Score: 1

    That is indeed a great documentary. I have watched it twice already and no doubt will be watching it again soon.

  12. Re:Pratchett does not translate to screen on Discworld Fan Film Possibly the Largest Scale Fan Film Ever · · Score: 1

    Going Postal was not great but it was a decent effort and quite watchable. And I'm really picky about that kind of thing.

  13. Re:First Step: ban tv on The Fight To Reform Forensic Science · · Score: 1

    Is there really a TV show by that name? How about 'Redundancy Department: Department of Redundancy'? I'd watch that, watch that I would.

  14. Re:Mormon's are Terrorists on Following FEMA's Zombie Preparedness Plan Could Land You On Terrorist List · · Score: 1

    I do consider most if not all religious organizations akin to terrorists, but maybe that is just me!

  15. So t-shirts are OK? I'm so relieved.

  16. Re:Obvious joke here on Message In Bottle Found After 98 Years Near Shetland · · Score: 1

    You mean in a van by the river like Chris Farley?

  17. Re:Obvious joke here on Message In Bottle Found After 98 Years Near Shetland · · Score: 1

    Well out of that lot IMHO only JB and maybe Run DMC are worth bothering with.

  18. Re:Obvious joke here on Message In Bottle Found After 98 Years Near Shetland · · Score: 1

    Hope not. Rubbish band.

  19. Re:Neat on Message In Bottle Found After 98 Years Near Shetland · · Score: 1

    LSD. Librae, solidi, denarii. Pounds, shillings and pence.

  20. Re:What's a 'shinny' ? on Side-Effect of the Apple v. Samsung Trial: Increased Sales for Samsung · · Score: 1

    Everybody knows it should be Apple's new iShinny. Jeez.

  21. Re:Lies on US Doctors Back Circumcision · · Score: 0

    Not at all. You're still replying to the wrong post. Fool. Abstinence only is idiotic. Obvious. I really don't know who you are flailing against. Not me! Have a lovely evening...

  22. Re:Lies on US Doctors Back Circumcision · · Score: 1

    I rest my case.

  23. Re:Lies on US Doctors Back Circumcision · · Score: 1

    What you said there makes absolutely no sense. I think you are replying illiterately to the wrong post. But no, I do not adhere to any arguments - or more correctly ideas or ways of doing things than those that I have thoroughly thought about. I'm no 'prefect' and not perfect either, but not sure what that has to do with your nonsense. You know what makes a fool of me? Replying to to the likes of you.

  24. Re:Winkle on US Doctors Back Circumcision · · Score: 1

    Likely come from the writing of Ben Elton, himself son of Jewish immigrants to England. Weakest part of the whole thing really...

  25. Re:The problem isn't circumcision on US Doctors Back Circumcision · · Score: 1

    no it's jewish
