Who says kids need to be supervised? I was left without supervision as a young adult on lots of occasions. I still have all 10 fingers and toes.
But then again, my parents gave me repsonsibility and consequences for my actions from a very young age. It's time to stop treating young adults as toddlers, and give them a bit of leeway to be just what they are. Young Adults.
You know what? I probably would have begrudgingly paid for the DLC for Fallout, but unfortunately the game crashed the second that I launched it. I'm talking title screen. Apparently it is quite a known problem for a large range of video cards. http://www.tech-forums.net/pc/f15/fallout-3-crash-desktop-solution-here-189880/
Always funny how they work so damn hard to milk every last dime out of the consumer, but then release a shonky, half tested pile of steaming crap to the consumer. And to add insult ot injury, if their genius money making schemes don't work, then blame it on the pirates. DRM for everyone!!! Yay!!!
Psychopathy can be easily trained into humans. All it takes is for societal restrictions to be removed from the mind. The US Marines have been doing this for decades.
Why is the parent modded troll? This is the concensus even amongst wine connoisseurs. There is a huge difference between a very high end wine such as a Grange Hermitage, and say a lowly poets corner, but that difference is still smaller than $12 compared to $599 (2000 vintage).
And what's the difference between a Grange and a Mouton Rothschild? Very subtle differences in pallete flavour etc, but quite a bit of price difference. $1107 for a 2000 vintage, (one of the best since 1986).
Seriously. You show me someone who says that a Mouton Rothschild is twice as good as a Grange, and 100 times as good as a poets corner, and I'll show you a person that likes to pretend he knows wine.
For that matter, since when have software vendors been willing to pay architects/designers/engineers etc to optimise their software to milk every cycle from the available CPUs and provide useful output with the minimum of effort? They don't, they just wait for hardware to get faster to keep up with code.
The only company that I have personally been exposed to that gives half a hoot about efficient performance is Google. It annoys me beyond belief that other companies think it's acceptable to make the user wait for minutes whilst the system recalculates data derived from a large data set, and doing those calculations multiple times just because a binding gets invoked.
I figured that marathons are just running on a much higher level. Makes sense when you think that the sport was invented by some Greek guy running towards Sparta with an army of soldier with pointy spears chasing after him. That sort of thing would make anyone run long and hard.

I am Homerclees.
Being a Roman god, he would have thrown it up afterwards.
Must have given him some pretty bad gas, considering the amount of methane.

I never used to kick into gear until about 11 am as a schoolkid. Even at university this didn't happen. I was just never a morning person.
Now that I'm a working stiff, I get up at 6am every morning, but *believe* me, I'd prefer to mosey on in to work at 10 am and work later.

doing a good job around dating Pamela Anderson
He MUST be telling the truth. Who'd want to date a broke over the hill soft pr0n actress?
For an extra $50k, I am sure they would be willing to push you out into open space.
Who wants to start the collection?
Hell, they'll do it for free. Just sign right here on this life insurance policy.
My wife's like that too. She loves having the heater and the air conditioner running at the same time.
Apparently it takes the humidity out of the air.
What? he card read good!
Buy a bunch of expensive wine
Carbon date a small sample.
Have giant pissup
Some days I'm proud to be an Australian.
Fixed that for ya.

Isn't it funny how wine connoisseurs play this weird guessing game.
"Can you guess what wine it is?"
"Chateu Latour 1986?"
"Nooooo! 1985!!!"
"Damn! So close!!!"
I mean, you don't exactly hear winos on the street going...
"Yes, fantastic vintage!" "About four O'Clock!"
"Goes well with the carcass of KFC, from bin number four..."
Come on. He can't smell *that* bad to them!

My kingdom for mod points...
Actually, usually for database designers it's a one to zero relationship.
No I didn't! Just grandma.
Hurrawh!!! I'm useful!!!
I took a photo of my ass crack using my phone, and the next day I had and extra $10,000 in my account.
If it would withdraw $10k from your account, it would be considered a feature.
You got a warm meal? You can share with old Zoidberg... hmmmm?!?
But it's a garden of eden post! LIAR!!!

Exactly. I would never believe a statistic that I did not make up myself!
