  1. Re:Metric 'Tons'? on North Korea Agrees To Suspend Nuclear Activities · · Score: 1

    Show me/demonstrate to me/explain to me a metric inch; a metric ounce; a metric mile; a metric pint; a metric mile. Car analogy: How many metric miles can you get from your leeeeter of, like gas? Fucked up US. Fucked up /. A lot of clever people with limited focus. Widen it people. Seriously.

    That's what I thought!

  6. Re:Body language is an effective tool on How To Sneak In To a Security Conference · · Score: 1

    So you're saying that sometimes you do wear the store uniform? I don't know, that sound like imposture to me. You might want to stop doing that!

    It wasn't just any old 'badge though, it was psychic paper...

  9. Re:Hey, the pirates can help on Master Engineer: Apple's "Mastered For iTunes" No Better Than AAC-Encoded Music · · Score: 1

    Hah! You're telling an Irish guy what ommadawn is? Funny! So why the needless insult - oh, of course this is /. but more importantly why the pointless reference to Mike Oldfield and Jethro Tull? Trying to tell us how old you are? I don't get it.

  10. Re:Hey, the pirates can help on Master Engineer: Apple's "Mastered For iTunes" No Better Than AAC-Encoded Music · · Score: 0

    Do you mean 12" singles? I never heard of LP singles before.

  11. Re:Of, if you DON'T pick just new releases... on RapidShare Fighting Piracy By Slowing Download Speeds · · Score: 4, Funny

    I strongly disagree with your use of the word 'meal' to describe MacDonald's food product.

  12. Re:Robert Putnam's Study on Book Review: Liars and Outliers · · Score: 1

    The word is drivel. Common mistake on /. for some reason.

  14. Re:Is that so? on Obayashi To Build Space Elevator By 2050 · · Score: 1

    Well, I don't speak Japanese either but I have heard an awful lot of it spoken. Worked for a Japanese company for ten years. Married to a half Japanese woman for 18 years. So yeah, you guys must be right.

  15. Re:Is that so? on Obayashi To Build Space Elevator By 2050 · · Score: 1

    Me neither, but I think it would be even more like SHI-tsumi with the stress on the shi.

  16. Missing Ingredient in the lunch? on School Sends Child's Lunch Home After Determining it Unhealthy · · Score: 1

    A vegetable of some sort. If only mom had slathered tomato flavored high-fructose corn syrup (ketchup) on everything it would have passed inspection. Silly mom! When will parents ever learn?

  17. No!!!!! on Man Digs Out Basement Using Radio Controlled Toy Tractors · · Score: 1

    I refuse to RTFA or summary and am content with vizualizing young Timmy's mom giving him an ultimatum. "Either you clean up my basement right now, or you move out! I mean it young man! What am I saying? You're 45 years old, for crying out loud!" "But mom, it will take me a week at least to program the tractors!"

  18. Sorry to shout, but on Ask Slashdot: Dividing Digital Assets In Divorce? · · Score: 1

    YOU SHOULD NOT HAVE SHARED THOSE THINGS IN THE FIRST PLACE!!! Otherwise, I hope you get over the divorce soon. It sucks but it gets better. Good luck.

  19. Re:Glad to hear they've figured it out on Hotmail's Spam Filter: The Best In the Business? · · Score: 1

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that text documents, especially resumes (and estimates in my case) should be sent as PDFs whenever possible. Something fixed, that will not reformat when opened on another computer. Never as Word documents. And I agree that mail received from hotmail, yahoo and AOL definitely lowers my opinion of the person who sent the mail.

  20. Re:yet more biblical contradictions on Why People Don't Live Past 114 · · Score: 1

    No belly buttons though, apparently.

    The word I was looking for was mediocre. Will that suffice?
