  1. Re:Wall Street Journal, Check your FACTS. on Downloaded Music Gets More Expensive · · Score: 1

    there are still other $16.99 albums on iTunes. Take a look at Coldplay Live, Best of Bonnie Raitt, etc.

  2. Re:Ethan needs to check his facts... on Downloaded Music Gets More Expensive · · Score: 1

    Actually that price dropped the day the article came out--but not all the $17 albums did. Take a look at Coldplay Live, Best of Bonnie Raitt, etc.

  3. Re:Wall Street Journal, Check your FACTS. on Downloaded Music Gets More Expensive · · Score: 1

    iTunes lowered the price the day after the article came out, Einstein

  4. Take that, on Google Patents Search Algorithm · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    exoticleatherwear.com !

  5. A professional reviewer...barely on Should You Trust Website Customer Reviews? · · Score: 1

    I have a Nexis subscription. This lady seems to publish a book review in the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel about every six months. The best part is her bio-tagline-"sig file" (for lack of a better term): "Gail Cooke, who lives in Fort Worth, Texas, reviews books for a number of newspapers."

    Technically true...but the "number" is one! (and frankly, as someone who writes book and record reviews for a living, I do find it incredibly bizarre that someone would spend that much time just giving it away.)

  6. To quote Jimmy Fallon... on The Evolution Of The Cost-Effective TrainCam · · Score: 1

    NERD ALERT!!!! Exhibit A: The corkboard. Certificates from mathematics contests and Canadian flags (yes, flagS). Look no further.

  7. Re:hehe, nippon on Exchange Email Addresses With A Handshake · · Score: 1
    You're probably one of those people who thinks that "Cheese Nips" are the most hillariously named snack ever.

    And says stuff like, on a chilly day, "As they said at Pearl Harbor, there's a nip in the air!" You bastard!

  8. Origin of "Wog" on Exchange Email Addresses With A Handshake · · Score: 1

    I always heard it was an acronym for "Westernized Oriental Gentleman." In a sarcastic way (the implication being that no "oriental gentleman" could be truly westernized, and therefore attempts to be so were pathetic and worthy of derision. Really nice.

  9. Beautiful logic! on New Scientist: Venus' Atmosphere Implies Life · · Score: 3, Funny
    Highlight of the report:
    This gas is so difficult to produce inorganically that it is sometimes considered an unambiguous indicator of biological activity.
    But sometimes *not* an unambiguous indicator? Could that make it...let's see... *always* an *ambiguous* indicator?
