    Yeah, but what has increasing worker productivity gained us?
    TL;DR - since ~1973, diddly-squat if you're a worker, pretty sweet if you own the place. Let's give those heroic jerb creators another tax break!

    oh come on, someone with the handle bickerdyke obviously knows what "flaming oil train" and "derail in your backyard" are euphemisms for.
    I was merely wishing Karl Cocknozzle a enjoyable Monday evening.

    Right up there with Lay's WOW chips and Haribo sugar free gummy bears (read the reviews, they're hilarious and disgusting)

  12. ALL YOUR PACKETS ARE BELONG TO NSA

    Because Google.
    And Facebook.


    I have found a way around the lameness filter, but the code is too big to fit in this margine

  13. I heard you like exploits, so we didn't secure our webcams so you can be part of a DDOS botnet while random people on teh intarwebs spy on your baby.

    1. A good, long exposure to a good, hard vacuum should kill off a lot of undesirable flora.

    2. Next Hollywood blockbuster, ISIS sneaks a module with a bomb aboard the ISS. A ragtag team of astronauts from various nations must come together to take the station back and save it from falling on the Whitehouse. Onboard political officer from the NSA turns out to be a good guy in the end. Uh, maybe this more a Ben Stiller movie, Tropic Thunder in space.

  18. BIG ROCK CANDY MOUNTAIN on Barack Obama: America Will Take the Giant Leap To Mars, To Send People There by the 2030s (cnn.com) · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Every outgoing presimadent since the Reagan, blessings upon him, makes the same grandiose claims that we'll put a Man on Mars real soon now.

    Just like Lucy tricking Charlie Brown into thinking she's not going to yank the football away this time.

  19. I think needing to concern yourself with money to fulfill your basic needs grounds you in reality a bit compared to living off of some giant nest egg managed by your accountant.

    Wow man, careful with your phrasing there.
    How about something along the lines of "having to constantly work in order to merely survive doesn't leave much time for philosophical vaporings".
