  1. This song came out in 1978. I was about 2 years old at the time and I am 40 years old. I am surprised they did not find anything more contemporary than this,

  2. You know what is even more obscene? Parents getting upset over this instead of bands of kids setting sleeping homeless men and women on fire for the thrill of it, something that happens in both the US and the UK

  3. How about I make a one zillion dollar bill out of partialy used toilet paper and mail it to them??

  4. Of course social programs get slashed on The People GoFundMe Leaves Behind (theoutline.com) · · Score: 1

    gotta build warplanes whose specs read like something out of Star Trek: The Next Generation and cost trillions to build. Fuck the poor, we gotta go kill, kill and kill people all over the world. Oh, God and Jesus is with us

    I just asked my dog if he wanted a hug. He gives awesome hugs.

    mine gives me awesome tongue kisses.....deep deep tongue kisses.....

    Now go over there and talk to those 2 very big nice gentlemen in the white coats......

  7. Re:My job is horrible. on Linus Torvalds Says Linux Still Surprises and Motivates Him (linux.com) · · Score: 1

    Wow, this reads exactly like a classic abusive domestic abuse situation (even if the 'beatings' are not literal), just replace "HR" with "husband" or "wife" "Every morning, I wake up with a sinking heart as I realize I'm about to endure another day of getting pressured and threatened by my husband to try to squeeze more house work out of me. Every time I do everything he asks, he piles on more chores for me to do. Outwardly, he asks for ideas and feedback, but if I ever provide any, he immediately labels me as 'negative' and 'combative' and threatens to divorce me and find someone else. I am made to feel inferior and getting any time to relax takes an act of god... the whole time I wonder if my husband is now cheating on me and if a new woman will take my place........"

  8. Because it's hard to have ransomware running on a shit toy gimped OS that very few people want to use and thus not in any kind of widespread use.

  9. Phone manufactures might as well do away with the screen, radio and cpu components and just sell a fancy little box/pretend phone with little Christmas lights inside, like those fake choke hazard toy phones you find at the dollar store. I bet plenty of hipster morons would buy it.

    This shit is making me want to go back to the clunky old WM Treo 650. As bad as that interface was, at least there were no secret handshakes and other stupid weird bullshit just to perform basic functions.

  11. See Apple, do like Apple..... on HTC Launches 'U11' Squeezable Smartphone With Snapdragon 835 CPU, No Headphone Jack (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    No headphone jeck, another bad idea out of many copied from Apple. Having to use a dongle which *will* get broken/lost, and possibly no being able to charge and use a wired headset at the same time? No thanks. Its time to put Apole to pasture. Maybe they were cool and cutting edge in 2007, but now its like the annoying grandfather who tries to be hip by doing rap very poorly and generating groans, and has now degenerated into doing stupid Jackass-style shit

    I had a 486 dx2/66 in 1997 (a Packard Smell :) Spent countless hours playing Doom 2 mods on it. Fun times.

    Yes, there are more super high tech warplanes to build and more cops to hasrass and beat up the homeless to hire!

    Too bad in most places it is illegal to just lock them in a room. If it were legal, that's what I would do.

    I was with you till the last item. Being transgender is a helluva lot more involved than just "changing your name to a woman's name" I don't like Caitlyn Jenner, because she did not earn her transition and instead bought her way through it. She did not have to face being abandoned by her entite family, or have to face threats and violence, or have severe depreesion and suicidal thoughts which are often followed by self harm (cutting, etc...), or be denied employment and be forced to do degrading sex work where you have to worry if you will be beaten, tortured, or killed by your client AND getting caught by the police, just to survive. This is what most transgender women and men who don't have $100 million sitting in their bank accounts have to go through. To me, she is just as alien and out of touch as any big celebrity or politician.

  17. What, give internet away for FREE, and in the Deep South? Why that is SOCIALIST and will make the Soviets invade us!

    ...like iOS but much less popular. Yawn.

  20. This is why I prefer to just do most things alone. Too many chefs spoil the souffle

  21. I've seen idiot patents let toddlers roam free at the end of the Santa Monica pier, jumping up and down on the seats/steps there shaking everybody up, and climb on and around complete strangers! If one of these kids gets snatched up, I hope both the perp and the idiot parent(s) both go to prison

    ...if an airport opens up in his area, and the Dutch gov't uses whatever kind of Eminent Domain laws they have over there to make way for this new runway.

    Really, you need a thumbscan to call 911 (or 999)? I understand locking out non emergency numbers and other phone functions, but this could have very easily cost this woman her life (I am impressed 4 year old could do this but OTOH, I think back to 1982 and being able to figure out how to work my older brother's high end for the time Casio digital watch when I was around this kid's age) digitalwatch

  25. How about firing this at the sleazeshitbags who cause people to be homeless, and those who harass and torment the homeless?
