So I tell them "Then fax it to me" because I don't have the time to explain why they are a 'tard for not knowing how to save a file as a "word 95" file.
No, you're the 'tard. Any of the newfangled.docx files come in, we just open them with O.o and then save them in a better format if it was really that important. Certainly not going to call them back and ask them to fax it instead. *shudder*
and faxing is easy, cheap and fast.
Maybe. Shame those operating the damn things are fucking clueless. Spent all day yesterday "receiving" an 80 page fax only to have it fail and then get it hand delivered to us. Madness.
As for checks/cheques, they will also be around for a long time as they are handy for a creating paper trail and delaying payment for a couple days. And you can fax them to the other party to show them that the check is in the mail, which doesn't make much sense as technically, it is in a fax machine, but it makes them feel good if you are a week behind on the payment for some reason. Then you wait another week, send the check, and blame the post office. I times are really hard, you can just seal an empty envelope, then use a letter opener to open the empty envelope, then mail that, then when the receiving party says the envelope was open and empty, tell them that someone must have stolen the check, so it isn't your fault, and that you will send another check TODAY, which you then fax a copy of, wait one week, then mail.
Oh man, you really are a 'tard. Glad I don't have to do business with you.
and I hope the congress has a vigerous debate about Afghan policy this time around.
Yeah, this is how that "vigorous" debate will go...
SENATOR ASSHAT: So, it seems the Afghan situation is far more complex than it initially seemed...
SENATOR LIEBERMAN: TERRORISM!
SENATOR STUPID: Right then, it's all settled. I'm off to lunch.
A conservative could be getting raped by a grizzly bear, and they'd cheer it on as long as it meant that a hippie was going to get punched in the face.
If I object to paying car insurance and don't want to be subject to criminal and civil liability for not having it, I have an obvious legal option: Don't drive. That might not be a practical option, but it's available.
Thanks for the laugh. Here's mine:
Hypothetical vs. fact
A litte boys goes to his father and asks him the difference between hypothetical and a fact.
His father tells him to go ask his mother if she would sleep with the mailman for a million dollars.
The boy asks his mother and she replies "Hell yeah."
He tells his father what she says and then his father tells him to go ask his sister if she would sleep with the principal for a million dollars.
He asks and his sister replies "Yes."
He again tells his father what the answer was. The little boy asks "So what's the difference?"
The father replied "Hypothetically we're rich, the fact is we're just living with a couple of whores."
To be fair though, at least your average liberal is upfront about it.
Liberals: "Less money for war and corporate profits, more for welfare queens and teachers!"
Conservatives: "Smaller government!" (Not said: "Except for religion, freedom of speech/freedom of the press, and beating the crap outta funny-sounding foreign countries! Also, letting women have the vote.")
No no, this is slashdot - stick to the theme. I propose:
-"It's just a PEBKAC"
-"Goddammit, one of the RAID drives died"
-"Aww fuck, the PHBs are switching us over to Outlook"
-"What do you mean, you typed rm -rf?"
-The Data Centre is now a swimming pool"
Here in America, we have politicians that tell us to grin and bear the gloved hand of tyranny up our metaphorical rectums. This past week has been a tumultuous time for our country with millions upon millions angry, demanding the end to the usurpation of our human rights. These calls have fallen on deaf ears.
Canada, the great untamed frontier, still seems to have politicians who put people over policy. What a topsy-turvy world we live in that we Americans finally look northward for leadership!
Maybe it's time we held our own Boxing Day.
You're both wrong. All my cats respond to voice and gesture commands, easily. The difference between them and dogs is a slightly longer training time and the realization that cats are only trying to please themselves, not both of you.

False equivalence. Thanks for playing.
Your convictions won't be enough to repel an invitation of this magnitude!
No, it just means he's not a redshirt and that we are, sadly, stuck with him.

Man, you get butthurt real easily. Pro tip: Slashdot ain't for you.
And they're cheering it on...

I would rather hand them a sack of 100 pennies :)
Always some motherfucker who wants to ice skate uphill.

Like OnStar?
I just wish that Timothy and the other editors would fact-check their editorializations before they get all those page views.
FTFY

Speaking as an old fart, humility is overrated. You younguns mistake it for weakness, go for the throat, and it gets real messy after that.
And all because I was trying to be nice. Fuck that.
So, you don't own or drive a car?

Funny you should mention that, because that's the outlook of This Fucking Discussion: Why is she still here?
Not unlike like the whole Apple/Beatles thing.
What was so disappointing about that? Not being able to buy singles? Did George Lucas rape your childhood?
And you think Canada is not spying on the US?
I'm sure there's a few Canadians who cross the border to do some price-checking, but other than that...
Seriously, a Canadian Spy Service? Next you'll be telling me the Mexicans have a Police Force!

No no no. Socialism is bad, mmmmmkay?
Doesn't matter. You've already pissed off the Breitling reps, and they're a vicious bunch.

Awesome! This just means higher adoption of encryption and more bodies on darknets!
Works for me, and, I suspect, most others here too.

This is coming out of your pay!
I mean, this Andreesen we're talking about. He's still looking to stay relevant when his best days are over 10 years behind him.
