How very eloquent AC. I suppose your next comment will explain how you are going to mod me into oblivion, and that you fucked my mother last night. I'm glad to know I'm not wrong about the sorry state of this world. Now take your hand off your johnson and type your brilliant reply.
I don't feel sorry for myself, and I don't feel sorrow nor joy for Jimbo's supposed success. I am sick of all these recovering addicts' stories. "It's a miracle, I had it so hard, I pulled myself up out of addiction, blah blah blah". It's just another way for them to rationalize how fucked up they are. "I pay my bills and run a business now, just like millions of other people have been doing for years, but it's more special in my case because I am a recovering addict." Bullshit, fuck them, and fuck you. I give credit to the people who have been working their asses off their whole lives, NOT to some drunk who finally decided to get his shit together.
Well how great it must be for the recovering alcoholic to finally make it big. I'm so happy that you've never had to bow to the powers that be in your entrepreneurial endeavors. You should write a book to share your knowledge with the several million other people who also worked hard, had great ideas, and tried and tried again and again only to be foiled by some government interference. But, of course, you are the rule and not the exception. Or are you something "extra special" because you are successful in a dog-eat-dog world? You basically state on one hand that anyone who doesn't make it on their own doesn't have what it takes, but then you state that you have made it against all odds and statistics.
Make up your mind, Jimbo, your little amusing but heart-felt anecdote aside, are you special or not?
I set my parents up with an Ubuntu machine. On the desktop are icons for: Solitaire, Google, and Yahoo! Mail. They have not had a problem since I moved them to this setup.
6)Has to be able to support thousands of pounds while filled with liquid without breaking or deforming (this isn't an exaggeration. Cases of water will be stacked 6 or 7 tall on a pallet then two or three more full pallets will be stacked on top of that.)
A friend of mine owns the local Culligan water business. I have been in the warehouse many times and have NEVER seen one water bottle holding up 5 or 6 layers of cases of water on its own. In fact, each layer of the pallets have always contained [gasp] the SAME NUMBER OF WATER BOTTLES, which means if the cases are stacked 7 high, each bottle on the bottom only needs to hold up the weight of 6 water bottles and a little extra weight from cardboard and plastic packaging, which doesn't amount to much. Even if you do stack pallets 3 high of 7 layers, each bottle on the bottom layers is probably holding up roughly 30 lbs, which is much less than your "thousands of pounds" claim.
I should probably tell my friend to let the rest of the bottled water industry know that they no longer have to balance 6 layers of cases of water onto a single bottle. It gets tricky moving those stacks around with a skid loader.

Ok, please explain the previous sentence to me. Make me understand how pastries could ever be legally banned if the sentence in italics above was an amendment to the Constitution.

All good /.'ers seek knowledge. Whether we ever get to *use* that knowledge is another discussion.
Enough with the Rubik's cube junk, someone please tell us how to unhook a bra with *1* move.

"At least in a capitalism you can have a real go at it on your own without having to bow to the powers that be."
And just where exactly might this magical land be, because it sure as fuck isn't the United States.
Not only that, but didn't Carl pump some sort of explosive chemical down through the gopher tunnels as well?
The Aqueduct? No, wait...sorry, wrong sketch.
Someone please mod parent "-1 True, but just not nice"
Ah, yes, context is important. Sorry 'bout that.
Since when is iTunes "Windows Only?"
Would you care to explain why you think that?

Nope, it was a Bob Marley solo gig. Sorry.

Try this:

Also, human language is vague.

Hopefully humans are smarter by then.
Trust me, Snake, they aren't.

THAT WAS GREAT! Thank you!

Absolutely. Every time you take a piss a Viagra ad will pop up.
