ridiculous amounts to order restore disks if they didn't remember to do it themselves
What, are you working as a WalMart greeter, or still living in your mama's basement?
"ridiculous?" Well, yeah, if you're used to getting everything for free. Hundred bucks or so for an XP 'upgrade' if you have some previous disc.
Whoop-de-fricken' do. I'll get over it. I pretty much expect I gotta buy a license, whenever I buy a new box. Hundred bucks. "ridiculous". Hate to hang with you, you cheap bastard. I spend a hundred bucks on dinner sometimes, and that's just for me, not including the babe or the vino. Sheesh.
Buttering toast requires more difficult decisions than World of Warcraft has ever presented.
One on one, and in hindsight, yes, the decisions are easy. But try that with a fifty man raid, with that many monsters, and you'll find the decisions become a little less trivial.
Howzabout shutting the fuck up. The world is already brutal enough without assholes like you disparaging how people choose to enjoy themselves on their off-time.
and now I have to get a gun because people I don't know enough to trust have guns, etc.
That would be my advice. It's a great attribute to have; being able to lob 240 grain lobs of lead at the speed of sound. To be able to put nice,.44 inch round holes into someone who would dare molest me or those that I care about. It gives me the warm and fuzzies, and yes, it makes me feel more of a man.
As a wise man once said, "No one NEEDS a gun. Until they really REALLY need one."
I pity the fool who tries to kill ME or anyone I care about. I pack iron every day, and as long as I have a say in the matter, anyone who tries to fuck with us is going to develop an acute case of lead poisoning.
So MY fucking gun makes it HARDER for J. Random Asshole to kill people.
More importantly, where are all the eucher players? It used to be all the rage. I know a lot of card players, but not one of them are still playing eucher.
+5 Insightful? Unbelievable. A perfect example of what is broken with the moderation system.
That was a fine piece of investigatave journalism Denver's 7 did. I'd trust THEM before the Times or the Post whose reporters have a history of falsification.
Breaking into a computer should be considered as serious as breaking into one's home. Enough of the "kids will be kids" stuff, and lets have our government go after the zombie masters as the scum that they are: invaders into our lives and our stuff.
However, I find myself bored at night since I never take any work home (as per the boss's orders).
You are bored, because your boss won't let you take work home. You're kidding, right?
OMFG. What are you working for, anyway? Jesus H. Christ! Go out and HAVE SOME FUN. Meet a WOMAN (or a man, if that's your thing).. Go out and DANCE. Go to a production of something. Take some music lessons. See a provocative movie about provocative people with provocative people. Learn how to play bridge, backgammon, how to take pictures, how to bluff a Texan out of a pot. But for fuck's sake DO SOMETHING. EXPAND YOUR HORIZIONS.
Kids these days. Ay carrumba!
Since I'm not capable of working without some kind of motivation, I'm trying to find some kind of a side job t
Working? WORKING? What are you, a retard? This is your SPARE TIME. YOUR TIME OFF.
Find the nearest tall building, and jump. That's my advice, for you are not living and I see very little hope for you.
Oh! Thank you, kind citizen! I was not aware that alcohol could hurt me, until your insightful comment! How can I ever repay you? You are a true humanitarian, and your wisdom knows no bounds! You have re-affirmed my faith in humanity!
Thank YOU. For a moment, I thought I might have 'coined a phrase'. But a quick Google showed me that that phrase has been used before.
Oh well. I guess I'll just have to keep working and waiting on the perfect, unique phrase to come up which gets me into "Bartlett's Familiar Quotations"
Wasn't a COMPLETE waste of time. Had fun, got some karma points out of the deal, and I managed to piss some people off. People of the sort I ENJOY pissing off.
BTW, I was referring to the the AC who called me an idiot.
Indeed it is. Indeed it is. But who was it that said, "words have meaning"? One does not go lightly casting such phrases. One had best not be idiomatic if one is invoking God. That was my point. Anyone who goes saying "God bless" this and that is a piker. A fool. The sort who knows not, and believes not, in what they speak.
Hey, fuckwit, who are YOU to tell God what to do? DEMANDING of God something? The PROPER phrase is, "MAY God bless XXX".
That is key. Anyone who demands things of God is a shithead. Whenever you see someone saying "God bless" without the proper qualification... well, you can safely discard anything else they have to say, for they are truly spiritually retarded, and are probably nothing more than a drone.
It'd be funny if it wasn't so sad that someone's life was that pathetic.
What planet did YOU come from? 95+% of the people who walk THIS planet are pathetic and lead pathetic lives. Slashdot readership is no exception. Whether they admit it or not, the average human finds great satisfaction in knowing others suffer more than they, and are very envious of anyone who is happier than they are. The only reason they 'act' anything resembling civilized is because someone is watching them.
Combine this natual tendency with the anonymity of mod points and I'm surprise there are not MORE mod stalkers.

'The drop in driving was small -- the average American drove 13,657 miles (21,978.8 km) per year in 2005, down from 13,711 miles in 2004.

But in the industry, it's pronounced "DEE bold".
I mean the Founder's name is jimbo... and he used to run a cheap porn site.
Sounds like my kinda people. I'd go to his barbecue.

I sincerely apologize.
I could blame the wine I had at the time, but that is no excuse. I could have made my point without being so inflammatory.
However, I find myself bored at night since I never take any work home (as per the boss's orders).

people who spell "fantastical" should attend to english lessons
"Fantastical" is a word.
What a douche.

BTW, I was referring to the the AC who called me an idiot.
Well, at least I know how to use a comma.
It's what is known as an idiom.
Indeed it is. Indeed it is. But who was it that said, "words have meaning"? One does not go lightly casting such phrases. One had best not be idiomatic if one is invoking God. That was my point. Anyone who goes saying "God bless" this and that is a piker. A fool. The sort who knows not, and believes not, in what they speak.
God Bless George W. Bush. God Bless America.

So this "good news" is that people are getting laid off at a slightly lower rate?
You are right. That is horrible news. It would be much better if the layoff rate were increasing exponentially. Nitwit.
