  1. Hey baby, sorry about beating you up on GameStop Offers $50 Certificate For Coupon Fiasco · · Score: 1

    I've totally changed though. Just don't leave, is all I'm asking, give me another chance. If you stay, I totally guarantee that I won't beat you up again, much, for at least a week, unless you do something dumb and get me mad again, or I have a drink, or I want to.

  2. Re:I Was a Victim of a Series of Accidents ... on Rob "CmdrTaco" Malda Resigns From Slashdot · · Score: 2

    Holy Carp, well reminded. It's been years since I've read any [url=http://www.nytimes.com/2001/11/29/technology/afghan-e-mail-seen-as-too-geek-to-be-true.html?src=pm]Katz vomit[/url]. I almost - almost - feel nostalgic for his deluded ramblings.

  3. Re:Wow on NASA Discovers 7th Closest Star · · Score: 1

    It's not, in any meaningful sense. This is Science By Headline.

  4. Re:They're doing it wrong on Humanoid Robot Wakes In Space, Tweets · · Score: 1

    Agreed, they've got no respect for the classics. Although I'd likely have gone with "Crush! Kill! Destroy!"

  5. Re:Wow... on More Schools Go To 4-Day Week To Cut Costs · · Score: 1

    Maybe fewer hours in school will make the kids smarter.

    Fixed that for you, courtesy of a Scottish education.

    Unless your intention was to redefine the hour, which I can't entirely rule out.

  6. Re:What about Star Trek? on Samsung Cites 2001: A Space Odyssey In Apple Patent Case · · Score: 1

    Pathetic trolling attempt, and a risible comparison. Vulcans get laid every 7 years.

  7. Re:all of the bible should be taken as a metaphor? on Evangelical Scientists Debate Creation Story · · Score: 1

    Trivia question! Name a word which occurs exactly once in the entire Bible!

    Sure, which one? There are, what, 450 versions in English alone, although you cannot truly appreciate it until you read it in the original Klingon.

  8. Re:Anybody else? on Teachers, Students Fight To Be Facebook Friends · · Score: 1

    Drama teachers. Always hotties. Always.

  9. Battery capacity and real life endurance? on PS Vita Specs Announced · · Score: 1

    Shush, heathen! Look at the flashy pictures!

  10. Dear Joe McShill on Coming Soon, Shorter Video Games · · Score: 1

    I want to cut back on content so that I can hire more hookers to crew my yacht. How would you feel about admitting to being lazy slob Joe? You'd feel just peachy keen, huh? You'd be happy putting your name to a ridiculous strawman about choosing between 10 hours of good content and 20 hours of sucky content, because apparently that's the only options available to $60 AAA titles? Well, thanks Joe, you just sign there while I sliiiiide this paper bag under the table.

    Really, games industry? This is the best that you can come up with? "We're giving you exactly what we wish you wanted!"

    Are you following this, Ford? Meet the 2012 Fusion: we listened(*), and it's now 100% free of A/C or heating across the range, at no extra cost!

    (*) To Mandy Frozenpants, Anchorage, and Bob Sweatyballs, Phoenix.

  11. From irrelevant to obsolete in one fell swoop? on GPGPU Bitcoin Mining Trojan · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I'm sure the crackers will enjoy spending their virtual pennies on any of the varied goods and services available within the Bitcoin economy: herpes, home brewed acid, and yaoi themed web sites.

  12. Re:But... on Navy Bomb Squads Get a Solar Power Upgrade · · Score: 1

    Near my work is a skyscraper with five tiny wind turbines on the roof. I read in the local paper that they could, in theory, if operating at peak efficiency while fully load balanced with the building's requirements, which they'll never be because wind, durrrr, changes provide 4% of the building's power on windy days.

    EFA. Small wind turbines are in almost every case a complete crock, sold by scammers and thieves.

  13. Well, the ruling is on the books on Righthaven Loses Again · · Score: 1

    Now let's see if it's enforced. I doubt that any winning defendant will ever see a red cent from Righthaven, before the profits get syphoned to Bermuda and the empty shell goes bankrupt.

  14. Re:artificial on Jupiter-Sized Alien Planet Is Darkest Ever (Barely) Seen · · Score: 1

    The "boonies"? Right now, today, if you've got an internet connection, how much does it matter where you live?

    Extrapolate to a Dyson sphere capable civilisation.

  15. Ice may be melting 100 TIMES AS FAST as predicted on UN Climate Report Fails To Capture Arctic Ice: MIT · · Score: 2
    It's on this spreadsheet that I totally have on my other laptop. There's an official looking logo on it and everything. The logo has an eagle, that's how serious I am.

    Now, give me funding or else your children will be raped to death by walruses.

  16. Re:Wrong on Pastafarian Wins Right To Wear Colander In License Photo · · Score: 1

    Religions shouldn't get special treatment, it's moronic.

    Gee willikers, if only there were some way to demonstrate how ludicrous it is to give special treatment to religionists? You know, making some sort of mockery of the whole system, using a method that you'd have to be a complete retard not to recognise as a smart, effective protest? Can you think of anything like that, maybe something that you've heard in the news very, very recently?

  17. Celibate pimp on Man With 10 Million Air Miles Gets Plane Named After Him · · Score: 1

    A car salesman who only flies? Must be pretty good on the theory.

  18. Re:There's blood in the water.... on News of the World Investigation Expanded to 9/11 Victims · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Oh, pfft, Murdoch could eat an orphan live on Sky 1, and he'd still be feted and fawned over come the next general election. Keeping that harridan Rebekah Brooks on-board is a clear F-U to the peons (in which I include such non-entities as mere Prime Ministers).

  19. Get a job in an air conditioned office on Ask Slashdot: Large-Scale DIY Outdoor Cooling of Cairo's Tahrir Square? · · Score: 3, Funny

    And be part of the solution, you lazy smelly hippies.

  20. Blah pointless blah blah just a scrap of nylon on Apollo 11 Flag Swatch Goes Unsold At L.A. Auction · · Score: 1

    On an objective scale, nothing bigger than a subatomic particle has any intrinsic value.

    Going to the moon was essentially pointless, frivolous and meaningless.

    And yet millions of people around the world watched it, and wept for joy because for one brief moment, our reach did not exceed our grasp, and we touched the heavens.

    If the thought of having a connection to that astonishing moment - and the men involved in it, the frail apes who walked on another planet - doesn't embiggen your soul, then honestly, I pity you. You may one day have $100,000 in your pocket, but if you can't envision spending it on something like this, then you'll always be impoverished.

  21. Re:Who cares? on Apollo 11 Flag Swatch Goes Unsold At L.A. Auction · · Score: 1

    nylon isn't quite renowned for sustaining UV and cosmic radiation + over 100 degrees variation of temperature

    Neither is photographic film, and yet some sheeple still believe all those moon pictures are real. [gets into flame-proof suit]

  22. Dear topless woman: I can see your tits. on Harvard's Privacy Meltdown · · Score: 1

    Topless woman: EEK! A PERVERT!

    What a world we've come to, when simply looking at or commenting on what you've explicitly chosen to waggle in my face is a violation of your, uh... privacy.

  23. Attention baying mob: note the convictions on UK Police Database Abuse 'Hugely Intrusive' · · Score: 3

    The system works. Access is logged and monitored, and the villains do get caught at it. They're not the sharpest truncheons in the box, to be honest.

  24. Re:I'm not too good for code reviews on Are You Too Good For Code Reviews? · · Score: 1

    I'm too busy because I don't do code reviews.

    Fixed that for you. You can be a whiny bitch and blame everything on management, or you can explain to them that you can't row because you're too busy bailing, and maybe taking the time to stick a few corks in the boat now and again would help them to earn their bonuses.

  25. The money's in the moichandising on RIAA Math: Sell 1 Million Albums, Still Owe $500k · · Score: 1

    Rapmasta F-U the lunchbox, Rapmasta F-U the colouring book, Rapmasta F-U the flamethrower.

    Well, t-shirt sales at concerts anyway, books, movie rights, that jazz. If you're too dumb to know that before you take an "advance" from a label, then you're going to get ripped off by a 419 scam sooner or later anyway.
