Marian Bantjes's "crazy little backhand" writing is a darn sign easier to read than her 'true' handwriting! I couldn't even make out several words in the latter.
Funny, isn't it. They went to the trouble of making the site CSS-compliant, and now it looks like a 2-year-old is mucking around with the HTML randomly every few days. Taco, why the FUCK have you mucked up the CSS on Slashdot and designed idle. so badly?!!
The sad part is that all they have to do to get around this farcical "This bill is vital to the country! But I'll veto it without this unnecessary addendum..." bullshit is simply stand up to it.
But think about it. Then they might have to take responsibility if one of the stands they made backfired.
Wouldn't work. A significant number of Americans liked Bush enough to re-elect him 4 years ago. These people won't necessarily condemn idiocy or (true) evil.

Microsoft Comic Chat?
I think that's mostly because there's nothing to do but gambling and sex - and they banned gambling.
Sounds like Texas. Except for the sex.
On the contrary. I'm very much looking forward to a big hug from an animated Wang.
What about a downloaded-sharpie version and $19.50? :-)
In the same way that Walmart customers think all Walmart's products are 2nd rate since the cost is so much lower than elsewhere?
You must experience a lot of stupid people.
I usually hear it being used correctly; for example, "we need to tackle the problem of the population getting ill proactively".
Several new words in MW were pulled from geek culture?
Word.
Erik's sample is interesting to me because of the unconventional ampersand,
That's an ampersand? Looks a lot more like @ to me.
and how it is clear that he writes the stem of his "i" before dotting it
That's common. How do you think they got the phrase, "dotting the i's and crossing the t's"?
It's amazing how easy it is to find errors in your code when you execute it by hand on a piece of paper.
It's amazing how much easier it is to write it on a PC and let the compiler tell you.
Are you kidding? Marian's was the hardest to read of all. Why do people like that??
So THAT'S how we got Comic Sans MS.
Just scribble on it yourself. A court would be unable to tell the difference.

big enough to require its own zip code
Think that's big? Check out this baby.

No, what was it the US government always swore to defend, again?
The PURSUIT of happiness. They never said you could actually get it. ;-)
You didn't let the British get away with doing shit TO you. Why do you let the current administration, 'people'?
Or, how about this utter bullshit? link
Yes, its the ACLU and everyone seems to hate them
You misspelled Fox News.
Umm, no his opponent hasn't built a cult of personality around himself based on a belief that only He can change the system.
Oh, that's OK then. Let's all vote for crusty-dinosaur-man!! At least he's honestly shit.

However, the fact that Reiser was from this community means nothing.
Did he ever actually post on Slashdot?
How is it even relevant?
Now that the author's rightfully locked up, it's unlikely the FS will get much or any updating from now on.
More people use the ext file system than ever used ReiserFS, though.
