Yes, Trolltech includes any and all employees of any company that has anything to do with Trolltech as 'employees'. That's 67.4% of TROLLTECH employees, not 'anyone who is employed'.
Ah, if only people in general thought that way. When someone flashes a $20 to pay for something, then replaces it with a $1 while the cashier is looking away, most won't notice because NOBODY, except maybe bartenders, pays attention to denominations. Having different colors would probably help minimise instances such as that.
Roll them and take them to the bank. They'll count it up and put the money in an account. If they give you any shit, just tell them you run a bunch of arcade machines in prime areas.;-)
More creative than 'dollar'? What kind of stupid statement is that? "Well, we've been called Euros for a couple of hundred years... let's use that word!" It symbolizes nothing but a contraction of the word European.
There are many levels of incarceration. They don't usually put the squishy white computer geeks in with the hardcore gang bangers.Unless they're bored.;)
That isn't 170 million in damages, dude. That's 170 million in FINES. Each count has a maximum penalty both in jail time and in monetary fines. It's not a civil case so damages are not rewarded.
Nope, not in the UK. I just keep my spellings mixed up to confuse all those around me.;) Really, I just don't limit myself to what is 'correct' for where I live (I'm in the US, BTW). I simply happen to think that colour and humour look better than color and humor.
Your ignorance of the importance of George Carlin's work is astounding. Carlin's 'cheap scatalogical humor', such as his fart jokes, have always been minor bits. Anyone that thinks he can't do a set on topics such as politics, religion, and literature obviously hasn't seen a damn thing he's done BEYOND the 'seven deadly words', which in itself is an important social commentary.
MiB didn't work? The ALIENS weren't realistic? HUH? I think MiB is a great example of the direction I see HHGTTG going, although I don't think it would be to such an insane extent. You have to remember that MiB was based on a comic book and while it had its followers, they don't come anywhere close to the number or rabidity of HHG fans. With something like HHGTTG you HAVE to stick close to the books, like with LotR, or you have a few MILLION pissed off geeks ready to kick your ass.
Bleh. Some things don't translate well to audio, some doesn't work on video, and some don't work in print. You're going to miss out on some jokes, but others might come across as funnier.
Such as a whale and a vase plummeting to the surface of Magrathea.;D
Whether you want to admit it or not, there isn't much different between British and American sense of humour. Funny things are funny no matter the location.
Fight Club is an excellent example. I saw the movie for the first time last year and read the book a few months ago. What struck me was how the book and movie complement each other so well. Parts that one missed or didn't make clear were basically spelled out in the other. That's how you do it right there.
Yeah, those few million kids that read Harry Potter books are sitting there thinking "Where are the pictures?" Kids can use their imagination, it's just that most books written today are total shit and given the garbage that they're forced to read in school, I can't say I blame them for not picking up another book in their life.

Simple. Bruce Campbell has a habit of just being a genreral badass in whatever he does. How many other actors do you know of that can fight their own hand, and make it look REAL?:D

Did you bother reading the fucking aticle? Obviously not. Learn to read, then post again later.
Because paper sucks and is way the fuck easier to lose.
Why the hell would you want to do PDA type stuff on a PHONE that is the size of a peanut with a screen the size of a stamp?

I've never found money confusing. Then again, I can read and tend to PAY ATTENTION to how much money I'm handing someone.

I've heard stories similar to that. The best way to find out is to close your eyes, open your wallet, and grab a couple of bills.
I'd do it but I think all I have is a couple of ones...

Yeah, we can't have any of those pesky JOKES around, can we?
Think before you flame? You do realise how stupid that statement is upon further review, correct? ;-)
When you track down the spammers that sent the mail and sue their ass for using your address. Pretty fucking obvious answer.

Might want to dab a corner with cyanide, for that matter.
So? You can't really do Chuck Jones style wild takes in print, but that doesn't make the cartoons any less funny. Different medium = different jokes

Funny thing is, most American spellings are the older ones. There was a discussion about that not too long ago.
