    They are lazy.

    That is the best worst thing I've seen in a long time. I'm surprised they didn't sample Balmer yelling "Developers!"

    I think drinking enough soda to become obese is terrible for you whether its made with HFCS or sugar.

    Actually, about half the places you'd normally find free refills don't offer them in the city.

  6. Re:Whaaaa???? on General Motors: "Facebook Ads Aren't Worth It" · · Score: 1

    What does that have to do with anything?

    GP said a large demographic of FB users are married women 25-33 (and insinuated he meant largest, from the following sentence where he said the second largest is men the same age range) then he linked a citation that doesn't support his numbers, the article doesn't even mention marital status. While chastising GGP for being ignorant of the demographics. And he got modded 5 informative.

    And this doesn't even have anything to do with his argument that GM is somehow trying to sell a $40k car to Turks, when there is no indication of this. I assume FB ads can be targeted by at least country or some sort of demographic, but I dunno.

  7. Re:Whaaaa???? on General Motors: "Facebook Ads Aren't Worth It" · · Score: 1

    Your link says the largest demographic is women 18-25, followed closely by men 18-25.

    When you have nothing to add to the conversation, point out grammatical errors.

  15. Re:Typical on US Approves Two New Nuclear Reactors · · Score: 2

    Minneapolis has the worst winters *and* worst summers I've ever seen. The average high varies 60 degrees from January to July. And you play host to the most vicious mosquitos I've ever been attacked by.

    But Minnesota's pretty great besides all that.
