  1. Re:Screamapiller is not a troll on White Dolphin Functionally Extict · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    The Simpsons hasn't been worth the cellulose it's drawn on since the mid nineties.

  2. What? on The Dutch Kill Analog TV Nationwide · · Score: 2, Informative
    So what about cars...

    Umm, what about 'em? I've been to Holland and I didn't see too many cars with analog televisions installed. Does it mean limos? Well that's a small luxury market that can afford digital receivers. Or did they also switch to all didgital radio and is that what it means?

  3. Again? on How To Choose Archival CD/DVD Media · · Score: 1

    Is it just me or does this subject come up once a month or so?

  4. Re:Pinstripes on Apple's Illuminous (Aqua v2) to Compete with Aero · · Score: 3, Funny

    Huh, but then wouldn't you just be looking at the inside of the monitor?

  5. Re:Not gonna happen on Vista the End of An Era? · · Score: 1

    You wanna know what's really ridiculous? That you think ten years is a long time. Companies and individuals that plan in the long term win.

  6. Re:I'm not so sure about that... on Unsuggester: Finding the Book You'll Never Want · · Score: 1

    I put in Gravity's Rainbow and it gave me all manor of books about Christianity. Seems to work pretty good to me.

  7. Re:I win on What's the Coolest Thing You've Ever Built? · · Score: 1

    We stole one of the plastic flats that the bottles are shipped in, I think it held 24 bottles. We used plastic tubing to route the smoke through each bottle in series. It took a long time to get the thing going but as you say, hilarity ensued.

  8. I win on What's the Coolest Thing You've Ever Built? · · Score: 4, Funny

    Back in high school I made a really huge bong out of 1 liter soda bottles and aquarium tubing.

  9. Oh you bunch of wieners on Plastic Packages Cause Injuries, Revolt · · Score: 1

    If you have a good sharp knife and more than 6 brain cells operating in concert you can open these things pretty easily. The problem is that people try to pierce it with a butter knife or something and then pry it open with main force. If you stick a knife with a good, sharp edge in you can then slice all the way around the perimeter of the plastic and open a large flap like a door.

  10. Re:To Doug Morris... on Universal Wants a Slice of Apple's iPod Pie · · Score: 1

    Print that out and sign it, then send it to him. If enough people do that then there's a chance that this ass and others like him will get the message. But ranting on ./ won't achieve much I'm afraid, we already all agree with you.

  11. Re:That's hilarious on History Proves That Videogame Ads Are Awful · · Score: 1

    Well if they're both a chance for sex I say get of ./ and go pretend that you really like Charmed.

  12. Re:Most commercials from the 80's... on History Proves That Videogame Ads Are Awful · · Score: 1

    Yeah I couldn't get through that last one either. And why exactly do we all love youtube so much? If it wasn't around I wouldn't have had to look at those.

  13. Re:That's hilarious on History Proves That Videogame Ads Are Awful · · Score: 1

    Bewitched DVD-athon? Go ahead and kill them both, no jury in the world would convict.

  14. Re:Another study... on History Proves That Videogame Ads Are Awful · · Score: 1

    You've obviously never seen me after watching a commercial break. Sometimes I get so angry I turn green and bust out of my clothes.

  15. Re:More hardware = More infrastructure on Thailand Government Cancels OLPC Participation · · Score: 1

    Do we really need to have this thread again? WHy don't you just stick to the topic at hand?

  16. Re:The Zune is brown on iPod Has Nothing To Fear From Slow-Starting Zune · · Score: 1

    Yes but the Zune, like a turd, is also small, and stinky. Brown people are large and bipedal, so it's easy to distinguish the two.

  17. Re:No business case for TV on No Business Case for HDTV? · · Score: 1

    What sport are you talking about?

  18. Re:Woo-Hoo! on Healthcare Giant Faces IT Nightmare · · Score: 1

    I didn't say none I just said local is usually enough.

  19. Re:Woo-Hoo! on Healthcare Giant Faces IT Nightmare · · Score: 2, Insightful

    My medical paid all but $10 to have my wisdoms pulled. Of course I'm not a baby that wants general anesthetic and NO2 either.

  20. Re:FUD! on Zune Not Compatible With Windows Vista · · Score: 4, Funny

    A small but hardcore minority are actually dorks.

  21. I got news for these people on Report Blasts "Peak Oil" Theory · · Score: 4, Insightful
    122 years ain't shit. The way things are going with medical research we might all still be around and wanting to gas up our Hummers in 122 years won't these guys be pissed then.

    Alternate energy sources and fuel conservation are a good idea under any conditions.

  22. Re:I suspect on Internet Only 1% Porn · · Score: 1

    Why would you store porn? You can easily go back and look at it again or find some new stuff and if your viewing online you need only get rid of your browser history to prevent embarrassing discoveries when others use your machine.

  23. Re:I hope they trade their 360s in.. on PS3 and Wii — Head To Head · · Score: 4, Funny
    You're such a flaming cocktard.

    P.S. Cocktard is not covered by the FF spell checker.

  24. Re:I just don't get it on Variable Star By Heinlein and Robinson · · Score: 1

    Thank you very much, that's exactly the sort of answer I was hoping for. It sounds to me that Heinlein was for you what Clarke was for me (although I still enjoy a lot of his stuff).

  25. Re:I just don't get it on Variable Star By Heinlein and Robinson · · Score: 1

    Of course it's a matter of taste, and if my earlier post made it sound as though I think his fans are doing something wrong or have wrong opinions that was not my intention. If you like it, that's cool enjoy. I'm just saying I don't like and I was wondering why others do.
