I love how you calmly assert that there IS PROOF that some guy didn't heal anyone or walk on water while defending your belief in little green men. However, I'm going to have to disagree with your self-assessment, based on this staggering display of logical prowess.
Consider the source. Win2k is really not terribly slow for most people, but you must take into consideration the attention span of the average Slashdot poster... (not to mention the pedestal that MS products are held on around here)
I almost forgot -- I did want to add that someone really should explain to her that superlatives are like racial slurs and epithets in that they are only meaningful inversely proportionally to frequency of use. If she seems receptive, I'd even venture into the concept that they make you sound like you think you're the ultimate authority, and you're not. I am.:)
I don't know which is more disturbing: the fact that this made news somewhere or the fact that it showed up here. This is really simple shit, don't you think? Most of my friends don't even have to be stoned to run on with such theories.
But more to the point, let me ask how often most of you recall seeing an interview with a dignitary of the male persuasion where, say, two-thirds of the way through, the interviewer asks, "How about you, Rick? What are you 'up to' at the moment?" *wink-wink*
Doesn't this get on your fucking nerves? No, not that hot chicks' opinions are relevant, but rather that at first glance we're likely to agree! Don't agree with her? Hell, chances are she's probably not your type. If she's your type, she could be telling you how much better off we'd be with Leiberman as a VP and you'd fucking agree in a heartbeat.
Then, what do I know. I'm here late in the day on a Friday when I should be at happy hour looking for organic material to attempt gene mutations with. All I'm saying is, you could be half as smart and twice as rich if you were a hot chick. Call me misogynistic, stoned or whatever.
