  1. "Am I the only one for whom this conjures up..." on Baked Apple · · Score: 1

    "...images of Shrinky Dinks?"

    Yes.

    Yes you are.

  2. Bart Sells His Soul... on 300 Episodes of the Simpsons · · Score: 3, Insightful

    is not on the list? Insanity!

    to quote Nate Patrin:
    This episode kicked hairy yellow butt, right from the In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida bit to the Uncle Moe's Family Feedbag bit...

  3. Re:MS Tech guy on Slammer Worm Slams Microsofts Own · · Score: 1

    Any spelling errors are not my fault.

  4. MS Tech guy on Slammer Worm Slams Microsofts Own · · Score: 5, Funny

    (found on another forum) 01/25/2003 1:04:37 PM

    "MSN was total messed up, I couldn't even log on to the net last night it said that my user name and passworded was invalid so I call them up and the tech guy says wow that's weird I can't ether."

  5. "Criminal? Click here!" on FBI To Use Ad Banners to Find Criminals · · Score: 2, Funny

    I can see it now

  6. Blame the shoes on Keeping Balance with Vibrating Shoes · · Score: 2, Funny

    Most old folks I know have no trouble making low-pitched vibrating sounds on thier own.

  7. Re:Great, except I don't want to make a Mac QWZX on Review: EyeTV · · Score: 1

    Why are you using Internet Explorer?

  8. Spam is a low-tech virus on The Economics of Spam · · Score: 1

    Spam wastes resources just like a virus. As far as I'm concerned spam *is* a virus and should be considered as such. E-mail software is most accessible virus creation tool there is.

  9. THE TEST FALIED! on Handshake via the Internet · · Score: 1

    Bwah-ha-ha-ha!

    No handjob for you!

  10. Re:IT -- successor of the banana peel on This is IT? · · Score: 1

  11. "Tell me if anything ever was done" on Da Vinci Bridge Built · · Score: 1

    thanks for the plug. our site is closed for remodeling. see you in a few months.

  13. Likewise hardcore Linux users on Palm To Purchase Be's IP · · Score: 1

    I've never understood hardcore Linux users. They're always blindly optimistic. There could be a headline stating "Earthquake Hits Be, Inc. Headquarters, All Employees Dead" and somebody at Slashdot will post "I bet their kernel has lots of goodness that could go into, say, Linux. Let's hope for the best."

  14. Re:Grammar Police: Coming Offline? on First Ever Webcam to Come Offline · · Score: 1

    Oh sure, change the headline on me. But it's not the first ever to come offline either. It's the first ever webcam and it's going offline.

  15. Re:Grammar police: "farther" not "further" on Pluto Mission Apparently Cancelled · · Score: 1
    D-oh!

    Actually I didn't do so bad. Thanks

  16. Grammar police: "farther" not "further" on Pluto Mission Apparently Cancelled · · Score: 1

    The phrase "... Pluto moves further from the Sun," should read "... Pluto moves farther from the Sun." Remember to use "farther" when referring to a physical distance. Now will someone please point out any errors I have just made in this reply? Thanks.

  17. chances are... on Where Is The Line Between Programmer And Artist? · · Score: 1
    The ones programming the game are probably putting much more art into it than the ones designing the maps, etc.

    Whereas the graphics people might be more artistic, or better artists, they are forced to work within tight constraints and act more as designers. They are just doing a job and have to set aside artistic ambitions.

    Programmers do their art of problem solving. The constraints are welcomed because without them they would not know where to begin. Programmers do not code for code's sake, but for a practical purpose.

    That is the line between artists and programmers. Artists will create art for the love of it. Programmers, however creative, will not code without a practical underlying purpose.

    Disclaimer: I am a programmer, graphic designer, musician, composer, martial arts practitioner, and artist.

  18. Re:Defer to Frank Zappa... on Where Is The Line Between Programmer And Artist? · · Score: 1
