  1. This happens all the time on Garlic Farmer Wards Off High-Speed Internet · · Score: 1

    This kind of stuff happens all of the time. Anyone remember "Attack of the killer tomatos", "them", "Godzilla", ...
    Everyone should know of this great menace before we are attacked by giant mutant killer zombie garlic. We don't want to be replaced by a more intelligent invasive species like this!

  2. Re:I also saw this with great skepticism, but... on Transforming Waste Plastic Into $10/Barrel Fuel · · Score: 1

    What happens if this fuel turns back into plastic after sitting in a fuel tank for a while?

  3. Yet again on Transforming Waste Plastic Into $10/Barrel Fuel · · Score: 0

    Just another way to convert food into fuel... Now they are going to convert all my twinkies into diesel.

    Oh, Beardo is kind of quiet and smart. Perhaps he'll be a good scientist, sitting alone in a lab all day.

    We were all surprised by what they found in his basement. You usually don't hear about that kind of stuff around here.

    Hay, I'm throwing in a set of knives. Well, one knife anyway. You shouldn't expect such quality service for free!

  6. Why? on (Near) Constant Internet While RV'ing? · · Score: 1

    Why bother driving away from your network connections, when all you want to do is use the internet? Park your RV behind your house, then you can use your WiFi to your hearts content, without needing expensive equipment, or needing to waste a lot of gas going somewhere you don't care to be.

  7. Re:No moral fibre on Mafia Sinks Ships Containing Toxic Waste · · Score: 1

    Fuck. Me. I sometimes wonder what it must be like to be a person with no moral fibre at all. I can't imagine it, must be weird.

    They're usually called lawyers, or congressmen.

  8. Grand Tradition on First Rocky Exoplanet Confirmed · · Score: 2, Funny

    In the grand tradition of selling things you don't own, like the names of stars and acres on the moon, I hereby offer to sell 40 acre lots on this planet for a mere $10,000 each. That's cheaper than a lot this size would cost in any large city here on earth. Imagine what you could do with your lot. Since there isn't any law enforcement there yet, you could grow illegal crops, build a manufacturing plant without any polution controls, or just use it to test your nuclear bombs. This is a limited time offering, and quantities are limited, so don't delay. And if you order today, we'll include the plans for a trebuchet so you can fling dead animals onto your neighbors property.But wait, order during this program, and we'll include a set of ginzu knives (shipping, handling, and other fees are an additional charge) which can cut through the toughest tomato without the need for a hammer, but you'll want to use one anyway just for the splattering fun.

  9. Re:Eat less, asshole. on Heart Monitors In Middle School Gym Class? · · Score: 1

    It used to be that during PE you would do assoerted types of exercise that the kids would enjoy. Now most of the fun stuff is gone, like dodgeball, because gettig hit by a large soft ball is considered just too dangerous. Noe PE is as boring as memorizing dates for a history class. Any surprise that it's not doing much good?

  12. Re:Claymore mine on A Tour of Taser HQ · · Score: 0, Troll

    You'd definitely want to use a real claymore instead of one of these dangerous things.

    Let's do a comparison: You stand in front of a real claymore, and I'll stand in front of one of these. After firing them, you'll have your proof of their deadliness compared to a claymore.

  13. Re:Tasers are lethal on A Tour of Taser HQ · · Score: 0, Troll

    The police should thus avoid using tasers, and resort to the more politically correct shotgun blast to the face. This should prove a much more suitable method of handling aggressive combatants than the excessively deadly taser. No sane person would choose a taser when they could receive a shotgun blast to their face.

  14. Re:Insoluble ? on Bacteria Used To Make Radioactive Metals Inert · · Score: 1

    It's like the difference between flammable and inflammable. If you developed a bacteria that took a flammable substance, and made it inflammable, the world would beat a mousetrap to your door.

  15. Be careful on New Unmanned Japanese Re-Supply Vessel For the ISS · · Score: 1

    you have to be very careful with these Japanese spacecraft. They have a habit of bringing back monsters from outer space, or crashing and waking up those existing on Earth.

  16. Re:He's missing the point on Teenager Invents Cheap Solar Panel From Human Hair · · Score: 0, Troll

    Obama could get his SS (acorn) to skin them, and use the hitler youths (americore) to locate them. Maybe he already is, because his predecesor (hitler) did a lot of that in secret from his people too.

    What type of vegetarians are they? Many of them will happily eat eggs and fish. Others won't even touch milk.
    Me, I'm a vegetarian that will eat anything that doesn't attack me from the air with flaming breath. Then again, maybe I'd eat that too.
