you think washers are bad? go to a local megamart that uses self-scan lanes when they're having a huge special on say, kool-aid.
*disclaimer*: i work as a cashier at a local megamart. i've run the u-scans. people are only slightly smarter than the ground upon which they stand while using uscan.
the scale has problems picking up kool-aid, greeting cards, light packets of sauce mixes, anything that weighs 2 oz. and yet, people will try to go through with 30 packets of kool-aid "because it's faster."
No, you start slitting other people's wrists, and possibly throats, in an attempt to drive that percentage UP. besides, the world might just be better off without some of these people.
No offence, your honor, but my client never laid his lightsabre upon the poor, defenceless, and mostly dead tauntaun. I believe, if you go back and review the video evidence, it was the man known as 'Han Solo' who eviscerated the poor, defenceless creature. And if you insist on blaming my client, I am going to have to roll out the Chewbacca defence. and you call your selves nerds. *shakes head in shame*
oddly enough, here would be a good reason for ani to have gone to the dark side..he 'accidentally' offed jarjar, and is now haunted by him, a'la luke and obi-wan.. Just the thought of a ghost jar jar that never goes away should be enough to make someone exceptionally pissed off...
*Bzzzt!* Sorry, you're wrong. If you had bothered to RTFA, you would know that the PSP is actually powered by 14 extremely tiny, very angry weasels. Noone is sure how Sony has managed to harness the power of the weasels for good, but I, for one, welcome our new micro-weasel overlords.
But, as a parting gift, I give to you the knowledge that the people have been sacked. And I, for one welcome our new posting overlords!
If by recent, you mean 1836, then, yeah, technology IS getting to that point. Other than that, I agree with the parent post. People suck, and there's not alot we can do about it.
God himself could descend down upon gaming forums populated entirely by evangelicals in console launch years and declare his preference, backed up by Jesus and the holy ghost, and this is still how it would happen.
Well...duh...You should KNOW that you cant side with Jesus on anything...he's a sore winner...
don't do it, it's like a drug addiction...you start with the ipod, and it's great...you get a great buzz, and dont feel any harm...next you decide to see what the OSX experience is all about, so you grab a Mac Mini (with additional RAM, of course)... next thing you know, you're living in a shabby flat in the cheapest part of town with no utilities (save electricity and internet) to help pay for your dual g5 tower of doom. it's a slippery slope.
due to the arrogance of a small group of people in Washington.
Now, now, I'm sure that the 'small group of people' had very worth-wile reasons for doing what they did such as... OH MY GOD!!!! LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THAT DISTRACTION!!!!
But it's entirely possible that a deity created the universe as it is such that science reports these results, and science is too small in scope to be able to refute that possibility.
It's also entirely possible that in the next five minutes I'm going to start shitting 20 pound gold bricks until I have enough to build an apartment building.
Disclaimer: If I do start shitting gold bricks, I'm not going to look for explainations, I'm just going to move to a tropical country.
everyone should just start wearing masks. I understand that they're terribly comfortable, and in the future, everyone would be wearing them. Now we have a reason!
... they just didn't do it in the "average computer users" tongue.
No, no they didnt. but using two pages just to print "IE is teh ghey" or "Firefox is doubleplus good" somehow lacks style...and style counts for something nowadays...
So how are you supposed to comment on a site which gets Slashdotted in seconds?
What? you really think that not being able to RTFA is going to slow down the people we have here? I'm fairly sure that at LEAST 20% of the people who post here are not aware that there really ARE article posted here....
and this just in, other sources say that 78.3% of all statistics quoted are made up on the spot...film at eleven...
or, from a more interesting standpoint, how long until "they" go "We did a trial, it worked well...can we do this with embedded rfid tags? on the right hand would be about perfect"....
...I found out earlier today (saturday evening) that if you happen to mention to a best buy employee that the game in your hand isnt supposed to be out for another 3 days, they happen to flip the fuck out....
Best of all would be to transplant our consciousness into durable robotic chassis with interchangeable/hot-swappable components so that we can effectively live forever and survive anywhere.
Yes! I want a robot body! With chainsaw hands!! BzzzzZZzzz!!! (with all respect to the Sealab 2021 crew...)

If Darwinizing the xbox fanboys/girls isn't the answer, you've very obviously not asking the right questions.
that's simple. it's indie when referring to anything Independant, and Indy when referring to Dr. Jones.
(though artist (Click link for more info and facts about Paul Steed) Paul Steed, one of the instigators, was fired in retaliation)
and here, I thought it was bad when people didnt read the FA in the story.

You know, that's a very excellent idea. I'll do it, but MacGyver's on next, and I can't miss it...
Nice. But what did you need a donkey for?

...you mean to tell me that HAARP really does exist and wasnt just invented for the X-Men Legends video game? i need to get out more often...
Well...duh...You should KNOW that you cant side with Jesus on anything...he's a sore winner...
yeah, nice, and for those of us who DIDN'T RTFA, we now know about Fink. stop being a dick, plzkthx.
