  1. Re:If you think thats rare.. on New Study Shows Solar System Is Uncommon · · Score: 0

    Like these guys? Vocal communication can be "a muffled musical piping, he said, not unlike that of the wind in the mountain caves, yet somehow disturbingly different."

  2. Re:Exactly! on New Study Shows Solar System Is Uncommon · · Score: 0

    I don't know the question (nobody does) but I do know the answer. It ain't 1:10, 1:1000, 1:1000000? or 1:1000000000 but a nice 42. Pretty improbable, isn't it?

  3. Re:Where's the fire? on China Sets Sights On Rail Record · · Score: 0

    Pauvre con, mÃme les franÃais ont battu les us-asians avec le TGV.

  6. Re:I use Paytrust on Pitfalls of Automated Bill Payment · · Score: 0

    Expected? Like the Spanish Inquisition?

    That would explain a lot...

  7. Re:News for nerds huh? on Mayor Orders Mandatory Evacuation of New Orleans · · Score: 0

    Naa, we're talking about a Disaster Area. Making it nerdy would be like this:

    The City officials of New Orleans are fans of the Guide. They advice regular concert goers that the best sound balance is usually to be heard from within large concrete bunkers some thirty-seven miles from the stage.

  8. Re:Thanks, washington on US No Longer the World's Internet Hub · · Score: 0

    For those who're intrigued by the high-speed pizza delivery line, there's a book you ought to read :)

  9. Re:Imagine their meetings! on Founder of the Secret Society of Mathematicians · · Score: 1, Funny

    Imagine wanting to write it down but finding that the margin of the book you're using is way too small...

    Besides, the solution for (and cause of) all the problems of the world is beer!

  10. Re:The Netherlands on Programming Jobs Abroad For a US Citizen? · · Score: 0

    If you're willing to hop over the border into Belgium that is :):)

  11. Re:It's like, how much more black could this be? on Black Screens For Unauthorized Copies of Windows · · Score: 5, Funny

    I'd mod your comment all the way up to six if I could!

    Nigel Tufnel: The numbers all go to 6. Look, right across the board, 6, 6 and...

    Marty DiBergi: Oh, I see. And most slashdot comments go up to 5?

    Nigel Tufnel: Exactly.

    Marty DiBergi: Does that mean it's funnier? Is it any funnier?

    Nigel Tufnel: Well, it's one funnier, isn't it? It's not 5. You see, most blokes, you know, will be modding at 5. You're on 5 here, all the way up, all the way up, all the way up, you're on 5 on your original posting. Where can you go from there? Where?

    Marty DiBergi: I don't know.

    Nigel Tufnel: Nowhere. Exactly. What we do is, if we need that extra push over the cliff, you know what we do?

    Marty DiBergi: Put it up to 6.

    Nigel Tufnel: 6. Exactly. One funnier.

    Marty DiBergi: Why don't you just make 5 funnier and make 5 be the top number and make that a little funnier?

    Nigel Tufnel: [pause] These go to 6.

  12. Re:Shows what competion can do. on IE8 Beta Released To Public · · Score: 3, Funny

    It's an insider joke: Die IE8, Die IE8!

  13. Re:Lego People? on 30 Years of the Lego Minifig · · Score: 0

    Pfffffff, youngsters... Get of my lawn... I'm an elder one, my generation didn't have any lego people, hell, we had non euclidean lego!

    and we liked it that way!

  14. Re:so what we're really celebrating on 30 Years of the Lego Minifig · · Score: 0

    Must be typical of slashdot to mod the parent as funny and not insightful!

  15. Re:Only 2000 Years? Pffft on Rosetta Disk Designed For 2,000 Years Archive · · Score: 1, Funny

    All right, but apart from the sanitation, the medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, a fresh water system, public health, and the preservation of their language, what have the Romans ever done for us?

  16. Re:Damn! on Study Concludes "Planet" Was Just Stellar Spots · · Score: 5, Funny

    My friend is a telephone sanitizer as well, care to share the name of the holiday agency?

  20. Re:One MAJOR item missing from do not call lists on FTC Bans Prerecorded Telemarketing Drivel · · Score: 0

    and that is the ability to opt out of ANY kind of call you receive.

    Come on, this is slashdot!, just disable the speaker on your phone! Can't you turn it's volume all down?

  21. Re:Apocalyps Now! on The Duke Is Finally Back, For Real · · Score: 1

    Shouldn't that have been napalm instead of pipe bombs?

    You know I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed, for 12 hours. When it was all over, I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' dink body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like... victory. Someday this war's gonna end...

  22. Re:Hell has frozen over on The Duke Is Finally Back, For Real · · Score: 1

    Haven't you seen the movie?

    I fart in your general direction! Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!

    Now go away or I shall taunt you a second time.

  23. Apocalyps Now! on The Duke Is Finally Back, For Real · · Score: 2, Funny

    w00sh, w00sh, w00sh, w00sh, w00sh...

    Xbox 360... shit; I'm still only coding for Xbox 360... Every time I think I'm gonna wake up back behind my pc coding Duke Nukem Forever forever. When I was home after my first checkin it was worse. I'd wake up and there'd be nothing. I hardly said a word to my wife, until I said "yes" to a divorce. When I was here, I wanted to be there; when I was there, all I could think of was getting back into the source code. I'm here a week now... waiting for a lock... getting softer; every minute I stay in this room, I get weaker, and every minute Microsoft squats in the log files, he gets stronger. Each time I looked around, the walls moved in a little tighter.

    No no no, the slashdot editor mixed up with the european and african pig!

  25. Re:Hell has frozen over on The Duke Is Finally Back, For Real · · Score: 5, Funny

    You should have taken a picture and posted it on the net. It would have become an instant shock site classic!
