Oh, I honestly don't think you can expect parents to be that responsible in our society today. But I do agree with your point about school as it is being a waste, and higher education starting at age 12 sounds like a plan.
There aren't any square monitors. You probably mean a 4:3 width:height ratio. You see that as a square (because human brains are fsked up like that). A real square you'd see as a tall rectangle:)
It's all those stupid folks driving SUVs, yapping on their cell phones, trying to take advantage of their rollover minutes! Jeez...
It's not news that SUVs are easier to roll over. Newton could have told you that (except they were called Sports Utility Chariots back then). It's just news to all the people who use their "common" sense instead of observations and logic.
Too bad he's not required to work, right? Can he get away with finding someone to stay with for free in exchange for house work or something and just sit on his lazy ass for the rest of his life?
In that case, his penalty is: mandatory vacation for life!
I have no sympathy for this guy, and I nope the other spammers will take this as a hint. Every time I receive an e-mail offering me Viagra I take it as a personal insult;)
I've had to learn at work that "I don't know" is not accepted for a time estimate. People don't want to take responsibility. They want you to give a figure and then hold you to it.
People's worldviews are fragile. They have a notion of how things "should" be. And experts "should" always give estimates.
Am I off my rocker? That's just how it seems to me.

Yes, quite a few LCDs for some reason came out in 5:4 ratio. And then people wonder why their 1024x758 backgrounds don't look quite right ;)
You sure he didn't mean one of these?
"A protective covering, structure, or organ of an animal or a plant, such as teeth, claws, thorns, or the shell of a turtle."
"A framework serving as a supporting core for clay sculpture."
"The moving part of an electromagnetic device such as a relay, buzzer, or loudspeaker."

Haha, now he won't be able to unsubscribe to those bills he'll be getting in the mail!
Withdrawal isn't all that teh fun either. Be careful what you wish for :)

I'm not 100% sure, but I think the parent poster meant that as a parody of the original article's bias ;)

Actually, the breakdown is:
$379 999 999.00: production/marketing/advertising/other overhead
$1.00: script
In case no one said it yet, no they are not related.

Yeah, that's what happens when you search a site for a keyword and post the first link that comes up :)
I think they meant to post this link instead.
