  1. P.T. Barnum would be proud. on Dutch Artist Admits Faking Viral 'Human Bird Wing' Video · · Score: 0

    P.T. Barnum made his living doing hoaxes like this one, and is probably looking down and clapping for these guys. Barnum had so many people wanting to get in to see his museum in NYC, but the people already inside wouldn't leave fast enough. That's when he installed a sign over by the exit door, "This way to see the Egress". When people went through and found themselves on the street, they'd have a laugh, saying, "Ole' P.T. got us again!" And although attributed with saying, "There's a sucker born every minute!", here's the real story... http://www.historybuff.com/library/refbarnum.html

  2. Re:iPhone users on Sprint CEO Defends Company's Decision To Bet It All On the iPhone · · Score: 0

    I should by an iPhone then. I will get more chicks, for sure!

    I should "buy" an iPhone... Proper spelling and word usage. Pet peeve of mine. History judges a society by how well it treats its women.

  3. Re:yeah, just use monster cables. on Why Distributing Music As 24-bit/192kHz Downloads Is Pointless · · Score: -1

    'Monster' cables do not do anything to improve analog sound quality, that's been proven in lab testing. All they really do is let the person who laid out the extra money for them feel superior, so he can brag about how his cables are gold plated. It's still just the same electrical signal being transmitted through metal wire.

  4. Re:Can we stop using the word "truthiness," please on Why Distributing Music As 24-bit/192kHz Downloads Is Pointless · · Score: 3, Funny

    If George Carlin were still alive, he would mod you up right now.

  5. Re:poverty line on Nearly Half of American Adults Are Smartphone Owners · · Score: 0

    The goverment gives celphones away too poorer people because, statistcally, guess who commit more crimes? Low income people! Now, it's a simple matter for police to find out who was at the scene of a crime using cellphone tracking tech. Hell, some of these morons even 'tweet' their no morals, "shiny" coveting asses right to jail, where they rightfully belong. The govt. gives them away to so low level, some violent and pedophiliac types can be removed from further harming the good people of this life. An extra benefit too is the good low income, vulnerable women, men & children now can get help at the press of a few buttons. And what's wrong with that???

  6. Re:Been around the computer block... on Nearly Half of American Adults Are Smartphone Owners · · Score: 0

    I have a VM Optimus phone, and it is the way to go today. Everyone bitching about high data prices are still stuck in the 2000's! or locked into idiotic, high priced, low value phone plans. $35 a month gets unlimited 3g, texting, and a wonder phone of modern technology. Come out of your caves! New tech awaits you! And the OptimusV is a Linux based system which you can learn to "root", and put any operating system you like on. Grumpy old dudes, stay in your caves and moan, but at least disinfect your nasty old keyboards. The rest of us are walking around in the sunshine, digging this amazing life and time we're in. Much to do, all while mobile... Oh, and stop farting in that chair and get out of your four walled prison you keep yourself in. C'mon, the sun feels good! Thanks, Slashdot dudes. Glad I got that off my chest!

  7. Re:Is you is, or is you ain't, a black people? on New Exoplanet Is Best Yet Candidate For Supporting Life · · Score: -1

    First off, you show yourself to be a race-baiting foolish coward, anonymous or not. That post is spam, and secondly, your lack of spelling skills tells me you don't have enough world experience yet. Come back after you've learned how and why we are all one and the same people. Don't be a hater. It really does lead to the dark side. Go back and watch Star Wars in the order in which they are meant to be seen. It might get you some much needed wisdom. When you point our finger at someone else, there are always three more pointing right back at you. Try it! GOD bless.
