If you reach into the freezer without really looking, thinking that you are grabbing a freezer-pop, and get an 8 month old leg of lamb instead, are you going to shrug and eat the lamb anyway?
Why is a non-zero failure rate such an abominable thing? At some times, maybe finding something you weren't expecting is a positive. Perhaps a search engine with a "fooling around" mode using a more heuristic search method (which still excludes keyword floods)?
Parent is the victim of moderators who did not even bother to look at the link. Clearly, the parent is not a troll, but an attempt to be funny. Mark the moderation as unfair.
If I'm not going to get karma, I'll stand up for those who should (or at the very least not lose any).
The only time you use "were" as a singular is for "you."
Incorrect. See here, or look higher up on this post's hierarchy.
Oh, and moderators: Stop wasting your mod points on OT'ing these subjunctive posts of mine (and others); it sends the wrong message to these people who don't know English. So if YOU'RE not going to keep them in line, I will. This, after all, is more important than my personal karma.
Nah, I actually kind of laughed at the goatse guy. I mean, it's disgusting, and I don't like it, but it sure beats some of the other disgusting stuff out there, like in this troll's post. It's the one below the goatse.cx link.
How about this: I'll have goatse as my home page in Mozilla for the REST OF ETERNITY. After all, if I do it in one long session, I'll become desensitized to it; this way, the mental anguish reaches a comparable order of magnitude to the advertisement.
---WARNING! TROLL ALERT!--- It's not the government we should be worried about. They're all too concerned about being re-elected to do the big-brother act themselves. It's the corporate scumbags in the search for more money who have me wary of this. They just use the government as a tool.
What was National Semiconductor trying to tell us? That the Device Girls had some "powerful hardware?" No thanks, I think I'll pass. It would have made me feel bad about my own puny hardware.

Coincidentally, I was just eating a freezer-pop.

And I'm still waiting for the doggy treat. [wimper]
Did anybody read that word as "snort" instead of "short?" I thought for a moment that I was losing my mind.

Oh, wait...

Verifying... done.
Now, where's my doggy treat?

You would think that somebody at the MTA would know about the patch, but no.
You still need a competent person to maintain the machines, no matter what software you go with.

I hate to inform you, but "were" is the correct form here. "Were" is the singular and plural form of the past subjunctive.
Excuse me, but around here, we're geeks. That means we always use the subjunctive properly, but we screw spelling and the rest of those silly rules.
BTW; I like semi-colons;

So, in conclusion:

The fatal mistake of linking to a video has been made.

Hmm... you have a good point there.

I'm sorry, but I appear to have run dry. I must have dissipated my anger at all the stupidity for this topic.

Check the "Code of Conduct" on the first link (empasis mine):
We, as manufacturers and suppliers of RFID technology, agree that we have a responsibility to our industry...
As usual, loyalty is first to the industry, and not the consumer. I mean, it is an industry web site, but still...
What, you mean these reports?
I'm a closet extrovert.
See a related argument I had with someone over this topic.
I've used a coulple of programs where, if you put the cursor over the horizontal bar, the wheel moves things in a left-right manner.
Or is that still too much movement. Are the lusers THAT lazy?
