  1. Re:What the...??? on The Worst Foods to Eat Over a Keyboard · · Score: 1

    Ahh, is that what rice bubbles are supposed to be? If so, then I guess its for copyright reasons? Who knows.. Also, what the hell are flake bars? Sounds like a bar where people with dandruff hang out.

    just to be controversial, and just because censorship sucks fuck God. God damn.

  3. Re:Betta Fish Royale on Are Betas Taking On Lives of Their Own? · · Score: 1

    Ahh we stopped the fights before they got too hurt.. most of it is just them showing off their fins in their full splendor. No fishes died any time remotely close to after the battles. And their fins grow back. We all loved our fish enough to not want them to die.

  4. Re:agreed on Are Betas Taking On Lives of Their Own? · · Score: 1, Interesting

    we did that 2 years ago in freshman year in college. we had 4 fish, each fought, 1 on 1 until mine was crowned champion. We filmed it too. It was great.

  7. Re:First (ontopic) post? on Maine Court Hears Case On E-Mail Privacy · · Score: 1

    Good point, but I've constantly signed up for email addresses under other peoples names. Granted, I didn't do it with the intentions to pretend to be a specific Magic Johnson or Bill Clinton, but those were just names that popped into my head when I needed to create that temporary hotmail/yahoo/your_provider_here account to recieve some stupid email with a password... And boatloads of spam. Now, if he signed up under his name, using his ACCOUNT, then yes, I'd have to say that would be illegal, mainly due to somehow cracking his account or something. But if it's just another part of the joke of the comic, then where is the serious crime here? Doesn't it make it funnier if I send you a satirical comic about, lets say, Coyboy Neal, from a hotmail account who is registered to someone who provided their name as being Coyboy Neal, even though it's not really Coyboy Neal, but just some fanboy who made a stupid little comic about Coyboy Neal eating pie?

  10. Re:There's no Retard in Team on Don't Click Here For A Free iPod · · Score: 1

    Good points. But AFAIK, a pyramid scheme requires you to give up money. But thats just a technicality. And the people I asked to do this for me understood that they would probably get nothing out of it besides my gratitude. It's cool with all of them, they were willing to help a friend out without needing anything in return. That's just what friends do.

  11. There's no Retard in Team on Don't Click Here For A Free iPod · · Score: 1

    Anyone who has any common sense would read the terms/conditions for these things and see its not very hard to follow the *rules*. I've already gotten my free ipod. I of course, used a brand new yahoo account in order to prevent my mail email account from being spammed. I don't understand why articles come out about these things blasting them to pieces because a few people feel screwed over cause they didn't get something for FREE.

    Thats right, FREE. Unless you want to count the time it takes (sure sure, time is money, but when its your free time, its just that. Free. Or hell, do it while at work.. back to main post) then you really don't have a lay down a damn penny. I signed up for the free AOL trial and canceled my account within 20 days, after my referral had gone through. I got 5 of my bestest friends to help me out. a month later a nice brand new ipod was sitting on my desk. Sure, it took a bit of time to get it, but hell, I paid nothing for one of the hottest gadgets around.

    Just because you don't like Apple doesn't mean you should insult them, for they are defiantely one of the innovators in technology.

    Prices didn't really change - look at all the accessories removed from the 4th gens.. Some websites have done comparisons - its like a $4 difference between the 3rdgen ipod with standard accessories and 4gen ipod with seperately purchased matching accessories.

    As a NYC area citizen who was affected by that tragedy, I would like to point out that at no time during the day did the EAS even get used, at least in my view. I never saw it go off on any of the many channels we were flipping through.
