  4. Mad libs [was Celebrity Wines] on Skywalker Ranch Wines · · Score: 1, Funny

    You know, if you blank out every instance of the word wine in the above comment, it makes a great mad lib. Replace it with movie(s). Then try it with baby(ies).

  7. Look at him... on Star Wars Sequel Trilogy Rumors · · Score: 4, Funny

    he's heading for that small movie.

    H: I think I can get him before he gets there...he's almost in range.

    (the small movie begins to take on the appearance of another trilogy)

    B: That's no movie. It's Episode III.

    H: The trailer's too good to be Episode III.

    L: I have a very bad feeling about this.

    H: Yeah, I think you're right. Full reverse! Chewie, lock in the auxiliary power. (the ship begins to shudder) Chewie, lock in the auxiliary power!

    L: Why are we still moving towards it?

    H: We're caught in the Lucas beam! It's pulling us in!

    L: But there's gotta be something you can do!

    H: There's nothing I can do about it, kid, I've already seen Episodes I and II. I'm going to have to shut down. But they're not going to get me without a fight!

  8. Liar! on Ward Hunt Ice Shelf Breaks In Two · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Sonny, breaking up is truly hard to do. But that's not what he said. He distinctly said, "to blave," and as we all know "to blave" means, "to bluff." So you were probably playing Sink the Schooner and he cheated!

  9. Re:Knowspam on Comparison of Bayesian POP3 Spam Filters · · Score: 1

    In its essence, the article concerns itself with fighting spam, not just Bayesian filters for the sake of Bayesian filters. Likewise, the resulting forum has evolved into a discussion about reducing or ridding ourselves of spam.

    Knowspam is an excellent solution and a good alternative to filtering: 100% effectiveness as opposed to writing 98%-effective algorithms that spammers will eventually work around.

    If I wrote an article about curing world hunger with dog food and used the article to compare several popular brands, would you be offended if someone piped in to suggest an alternate solution?

    Would you say, "Wait, the article is about dog food!!!"?

  10. Knowspam on Comparison of Bayesian POP3 Spam Filters · · Score: 1, Informative

    No one appears to have mentioned Knowspam yet. 100% spam blocking. No filters. Just a simple "prove you're human" auto-reply sent to the sender and a "friends" list. http://knowspam.net/

  11. Wait, 34? on Ageism in IT? · · Score: 0

    A 34-year-old coder? You should have gone to Carousel four years ago. Does that mean you're a runner? Call in the sandmen! Renew! Renew!!!
