  1. Whatever, this is MS fud! on Apple Faces Inquiries In the EU On iPhone Accidents · · Score: 2, Funny

    Obviously this strategic move by Apple to created a 7 in one device (phone, email, text, game platform, camera, photo album, grenade) and MS can't handle it.

    No. Your excuses are stupid.

    No, you're a big stupid head!

    Seriously, there's no need for name calling or putting down people. Your point is (somewhat) valid, you only weaken your position with derogatory remarks.

    "The country that has bought Sukhois, tanks and 100,000 AK-103's, is planning to build a manufacturing plant of Russian rifles, and oppresses peaceful marches has decided to ban 'violent' video games because they 'promote violence and can alter the behavior of children.'

  12. Re:Unnecessary on Clojure and Heroku Predict Flight Delays · · Score: 5, Funny

    This is unnecessary because they tell you at the airport if your flight is delayed.

    Back in my day you had to WALK over to a big sign and try to track down your flight information, or, even worse, you had to talk to the person standing behind the counter. And we all know that that ain't diet Dr Pepper they're drinking in that cup on their counter, no sir, that's 100% pureed baby souls. One time, I was taking a flight to Santa Barbara and I couldn't remember the airport code...well, that's not true. I could remember it, but I'd forgotten my tri-focals, so I couldn't read the blasted sign, and I had to go to that counter to find out about my flight. Well, after standing in line for close to 3 months, I finally get to the counter and the "lady" behind the counter shoots a 4 foot flame from her anus that burned my ticket to little cinders.

    Where was I? Oh yeah, I'm stoked for something like this. It beats havin' ta walk, sonny-Jim.

    ah yes, the infamous iWork program. I've heard good and bad things about this program.

    I have not updated to that level of iLife, thankfully.

    As far as spelling goes, how can you not learn to spell more correctly, as auto-correcting features SHOW you how to correctly spell what you're trying to spell?
