  1. That's too bad... on Best Buy CEO Brian Dunn Resigns After $1.7 Billion Loss · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I worked for Best Buy from 1999 to 2001. They were a pretty good company back then. The only thing they really pushed us to sell was the extended warranties... excuse me, protection plans. I really enjoyed working for the company. I stayed in touch with my former co-workers that stayed on with them for many years after I left. According to them, Best Buy's policies got worse and they became a pretty bad company to work for. They got super high pressure with everything. I actually interviewed with them again in 2009 but ended up turning down the job offer. I didn't like what the company had become.

  2. When are we going to realize... on Doctors Recommend Against TV For Kids Under 2 · · Score: 1

    That all kids are different. Some kids can eat an entire jar of peanut butter, other kids break out in hives if they touch something that was covered in peanut butter last week. Some kids can play video games and be perfectly fine, others play Doom and then shoot up a school. A part of being a parent is observing and providing for the individual needs of the kids. Some kids may learn and benefit from a little TV, others may suffer for it. You just gotta pay attention and figure out whats right for your kid. If your kid goes nuts after watching Sponge Bob, then its probably best to stop letting them watch it.

    Apparently it does.

  4. But... on Nanomaterial May Allow Devices to Rewire Themselves · · Score: 0

    Will it allow subject lines to correct themselves?

  5. Re:Recommendation: Buy Up Rights to Make New Class on Netflix To Start Creating Original Content · · Score: 1

    I was wondering how many comments it would take before someone raised the "BRING BACK FIREFLY!!!" banner.

  6. Social Nudity on Julian Assange's Online Dating Profile Leaked · · Score: 1

    I get the feeling that he won't be too upset by this coming to light. Someone like Assange probably posts things online with the full knowledge that they could (and probably will) be exposed for the world to see.

  7. In love... on Google Asks Users To Complain Against Facebook · · Score: 1

    That warning page makes me want to move to Japan and marry Google.

  8. *Buzz, buzz, followed by a lurch foward* on Segway UK Boss Dies After Driving Off Cliff · · Score: 1

    "Damnit, I dont think I will ever figure this bloody thing ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut!"

  9. This is why... on Twitter Hit With Second Worm In a Week · · Score: 5, Funny

    It took me awhile to realize what was going on. This is pretty much what I post about on Twitter anyway.

  10. The Spice... on First Human-Powered Ornithopter · · Score: 5, Funny

    Must flow.

  11. When I was in grade school... on Senate Approves the ______Act Of____ · · Score: 1

    If I forgot to put my name or a title on a paper, I would not get credit on it. Or the teacher would put it in the lost and found box. Solution... With so many unemployed teachers out there, assign a group of them to proof read bills in congress.

  12. THIS ISN'T NEWS!!! on Dog Eats Man's Toe and Saves His Life · · Score: 1

    "Man eats dog's toe and saves his life". Now THATS news.

    You dont understand. I saw Vanguard!!! We played clever word games!!!
