  1. let me assure you... on Another Way the LHC Could Self-Destruct · · Score: 5, Funny

    Let me assure you, there is nothing to be worried about. I'm watching a couple of guys fiddle with some of the magnets right now and they assure me that nothing can go wro

  2. important question on Be Part of the 2008 Presidential Youth Debate · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Do you believe that a supreme being has influence over your day to day affairs?

  3. Crysis, the affirmative answer to the old question on Review: Crysis Warhead · · Score: 5, Funny

    Could God create a game with such steep requirements that he, himself, could not run it?

  4. hmm on Kuwait Issues Order To Block YouTube · · Score: 4, Funny

    Funny thing is, those videos they refer to have been removed and I can't reach them anymore

    Do you by any chance live in Kuwait?

  5. since when... on US Congress Funds Laser Weapons · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Since when is "truck" military jargon for "shark?"

  6. mod parent up on Judge Munley is So Out of My Top 8 · · Score: 1

    GParent does not seem to understand freedom of speech.

  7. I'll stick with PbZep on Japanese Begin Working On Space Elevator · · Score: 4, Funny

    I'm always afraid of getting stuck halfway up on a space elevator (one bustle in your hedgerow and the whole thing gets jammed up). I'll just take a Stairway to Heaven, there's a lady I've heard good things about that is buying one.

  8. they deserve a break on LHC Shut Down By Transformer Malfunction · · Score: 3, Funny

    Being able to MacGyver that thing at all without a DHD is impressive, let's not be so hard on them.

  9. Re:Substances on Gamers Are Fitter (and Sadder) Than You Think · · Score: 1

    Substances like soda and frosting

    ...says the guy with the username pizza_milkshake.

  10. really old and really geeky on Any Suggestions For a Meaningful Geeky Wedding Band? · · Score: 1

    Mammoth bone ring! I'm sure you can find someone to make one, though it would be brutally expensive. Some chess sets are made out of the stuff.

  11. Re:Hahahah on McCain Picks Gov. Palin As Running Mate · · Score: 1

    Pardon, but I think perhaps you may not be qualified to speak for "the social conservatives".

    Not qualified to speak, why? Because you think that the thread's parent is a woman ;-)?

  12. Re:Hahahah on McCain Picks Gov. Palin As Running Mate · · Score: 1

    I find that hard to believe, "Democrat" has changed by about 180 degrees in the past 50-60 years. If anything was going to change her mind, I can't believe that it would be this (if she were that racist/sexist/whatever she would have gone Republican during the past at some other point).

  13. Re:Good choice on McCain Picks Gov. Palin As Running Mate · · Score: 1

    IAAPS (I Am A Political Scientist)

    Assuming that the Republicans didn't overlook something, she will probably turn out to be a pretty good choice (that is, assuming that any skeletons in her closet will remain buried). Despite this, it would be an anomaly to see McCain elected. He has too much stacked against him, the main two things are the incumbent's approval rating and that his party is trying to have three Presidents in a row, which very rarely happens (Bush is no Reagan).

    What I can see happening, is something to McCain just prior to the election in order to run Palin for President. Palin for President as an October surprise is the strongest hand that the Republicans are hinting at, thus far.

  14. last I checked... on Hashing Email Addresses For Web Considered Harmful · · Score: 1

    Slashdot uses an e-mail scheme like that. Yeah, there it is, right there ^^^.

  15. Re:they don't plan on being a "wiki" anymore anywa on Wikileaks To Sell Hugo Chavez' Email · · Score: 1

    They will end up giving open source politics a bad name at the first scandal.

    Yes, but who will be there to break the first scandal?

  16. Re:Bart vs the Hamster on Genetic Glitch May Prevent Kids From Learning From Their Mistakes · · Score: 5, Informative

    That's not entirely true. There was an abortion joke in Treehouse of Horror VII in the short "Citizen Kang." Kang and Kodos assume the identities of presidential candidates Bill Clinton and Bob Dole. While at a rally, under the guise of Bob Dole, the alien proclaims "Abortions for everyone!" which is met with boos from the crowd, he then proclaims "Abortions for no one!" which is also met with boos from the crowd. Finally he proclaims something along the lines of "Abortions for some, tiny American flags for others!" and is met with loud applause.

  17. too late on Google Earth Used To Predict Electrical Problems · · Score: 3, Funny

    The LHC goes online in just under a day; Google Earth is going to be obsolete, so how is this newsworthy?

  18. piracy and eve on Interview With an EVE Pirate · · Score: 2, Informative

    Most pirates in EVE, including VETO, are not generally regarded as very good players. They spend most of their time in systems with "low" security status rather than systems with "zero" security status. This amounts to the same as PVPing in the beginner zones of other MMOs, as the game prohibits fighting in "high" security systems. Low security systems still provides some automated defenses for a player that does not initiate combat, tends to have NPC stations (a place in which a player can dock up to hide or repair) and does not allow some of the more advanced ships to operate. These guys are roughly equal to mid-to-high-level horde players that hang out in Redridge.

  19. ah, for a moon landing flame war... on NASA Turns 50 · · Score: 3, Funny

    I'll go ahead and start us off.

    We obviously didn't land on the moon, check out the alleged videos, the astronauts jump but don't fly away. Learn some science, you people are sheep.

    That should do it, please discuss.

  20. now this!? on Nukes Not the Best Way To Stop Asteroids, Says Apollo Astronaut · · Score: 4, Funny

    First an Apollo Astronaut says that the government has covered up Alien contact, now this!?

  21. Let me be the first to say... on Talent Build Examples for Blizzard's New Death Knight · · Score: 5, Funny

    Deathknight needs a nerf.

  22. The comments on this one... on Clove 2 Bluetooth Dataglove For One-Handed Typing · · Score: 1

    ...are going to be all kinds of classy. I'm sure the one-handed typing is for the disabled... yeah, i'm going to stick with that.

  23. of course... on Best Way To Put a Monitor On a Robot? · · Score: 1

    Carefully.
