  1. Bedazzled? on Total Solar Eclipse Bedazzles Northern Australians · · Score: 2

    "Hey, look a solar eclipse! Wait, why is my jean jacket now covered in rhinestones?"

  2. Re:No on Do Recreational Drugs Help Programmers? · · Score: 3, Funny

    I always thought that minified javascript was run through a minification program to do that, but it was actually being handwritten by Cheech & Chong.

  3. Re:Needs a Catchy Name... on The Survival Machine Farm · · Score: 1

    How about the Mid-American Body Odor Repository and Parasite Farm?

  4. You're trying too hard on The Survival Machine Farm · · Score: 1

    Just get you a cardboard sign and live under an overpass. You can keep your agile development techniques too. Heck, I saw a guy having a stand up scrum meeting by himself on a street corner just this morning.

  5. Chip fabs huh? on The Survival Machine Farm · · Score: 3, Funny

    I took a look at the picture on the first page and your clean room needs a little work

  6. Re:Undecoded? on WW2 Carrier Pigeon and Undecoded Message Found In Chimney · · Score: 4, Funny

    I prefer the doubly redundant not not undecoded. Oh well, back to my technical writing job.

  7. Re:And what do you do with... on Boeing Proposes Using Gas Clouds To Bring Down Orbital Debris · · Score: 2

    That's the equivalent of having one trash truck for every house and then just driving it into the landfill instead of dumping it. Good plan.

  8. That's a problem but, on Apple Acknowledges iPhone 5 Camera Flaw · · Score: 1

    Did they correct the issue that makes women above the age of 15 appear to have a duck mouth in iphone photos?

  9. Reading between the lines on MPAA Boss Admits SOPA and PIPA Are Dead, Not Coming Back · · Score: 2

    This is going to require a much less direct approach and a larger bag of money

  10. Re:eBay on NASA Ponders What To Do With a Pair of Free Space Telescopes · · Score: 3, Funny

    Let me guess, local pickup only.

  11. Easy. on NASA Ponders What To Do With a Pair of Free Space Telescopes · · Score: 5, Funny

    Make the first set of space binoculars

  12. Re:Let Them Eat Cake on Sweet Times For Cows As Gummy Worms Replace Corn Feed · · Score: 5, Insightful

    It's by far easier to get the food to the cows. Feeding most of those who die of malnutrition involves the following:

    1. Get together enough food.
    2. Send an armed force to overthrow the government or local warlord who is ruling the area where people are dying of malnutrition. If not, the ruling party will simply claim the food or stop the aid.
    3. Deliver the food
    4. Remain in the region indefinitely to keep the peace all the while the local region becomes more and more dissatisfied with the outside invaders and the casualties continue to mount.
    5. Eventually leave the region and watch the warlords / corrupt governments return or civil war breaks out.

    So in this case, feeding the cows gummy worms doesn't sound like that bad of a deal.

  13. Re:At My New Hospital... on Why Non-Coders Shouldn't Write Code · · Score: 1

    We give them very detailed diagrams. It will be fine.

  14. Re:Misleading headline on "Out of Africa" Theory Called Into Question By Originator · · Score: 2

    You wouldn't happen to operate a church do you? Because this sounds AWESOME. Especially, if you offer a large over-salted popcorn and 50 ounces of soda with every collection plate contribution over 15 dollars. 3-D glasses would be a nice touch too.

  15. Re:Think Different on Apple Confirms iPhone 5 Preorders Top 2 Million In 24 Hours · · Score: 2

    They are all thinking different together

  16. Come on on Foxconn Says Vocational Students Aren't Being 'Forced' To Work · · Score: 1

    That guy behind them with the gun is just a coincidence

  17. Re:This reminds me of a movie... on Researchers Create Short-term Memories In Rat Brains · · Score: 1

    So did the mutant rat have a 13th boob

  19. Great article.. on Leak Shows What Could Be Nokia's New Windows Phone 8 Devices · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Except looking at a picture of cell phone is about the same as looking at a generic ATX case and saying "Look at how fast this computer is!"

    Let's get Clint Eastwood to steal that bad boy.

  21. We're taking pair programming to the next level on The Programmers Go Coding Two-by-Two — Hurrah? · · Score: 3, Funny

    We have one big cube with one computer and we put all of the programmers in there. We call it the stable and the programmers are now just referred to as the herd.

  22. Re:Cost of geek food going up on Bad Software Runs the World · · Score: 4, Funny

    I always assumed that Taco Bell's product was consumed as a laxative, of which they produce a highly effective product.

    The NBA star trend of wearing fake glasses will have an actual purpose.
