  1. Who can I switch to? on Time Warner Expanding Internet Transfer Caps To New Markets · · Score: 1

    Who can I switch to? I live in Rochester and the phone company apparently has crappy DSL service, and we have no FIOS. I was thinking of going to Speakeasy.net but my recent research is showing that Speakeasy has gotten quite bad in the last year or two. Anybody have any recommendation?

  2. Linux smells.. on Linux Needs Critics · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Linux smells of elderberries.

  3. Re:Is this it? on Online Banking Customers Migrating To Lynx · · Score: 1

    I agree.

  4. Re:Justice on Kremlin-Backed Nashi Admits Cyberattacking Estonia · · Score: 1

    That is only what THEY want you to think.

  5. Re:Best reply on DHS To Use Body Odor As a Lie Detector · · Score: 1

    I believe more treaties recognize "He who smelt it, dealt it."

  6. Re:Horse Shit on Global Warming Irreversible, NOAA Scientist Finds · · Score: 1

    I would hate to see how you react to the blue-footed booby.

  7. Cthulhu on Mediterranean Undersea Cables Cut, Again · · Score: 4, Funny

    Cthulhu needed something to floss his teeth with.

  8. Re:Let's cut the conspiracy theory on When Teachers Are Obstacles To Linux In Education · · Score: 1

    I agree. Stupidity is far easier to achieve than a vast conspiracy.

  9. Re:"Please do not turn off the system" on Players Furious Over Buggy GTA IV PC Release · · Score: 3, Funny

    My brother died that way you insensitive clod.

  10. Re:Oblig. on Teacher Sells Ads On Tests · · Score: 1

    You want me to drink what is in toilets?

  11. Re:Overrated: same as all other music on Techniques and Styles of Video Game Music · · Score: 1

    You can try Ishkur's Guide to Electronic Music.
    http://techno.org/electronic-music-guide/music.swf
    It is a bit old, but it has multiple samples of different genres, and it is pretty thorough.

  12. Re:That's a terrible headline? on Oldest Nuclear Family Found Murdered In Germany · · Score: 1

    Killer strikes! Whole family found massacred in Nazi Birthplace; had known nuclear connections.

  13. Re:Trailer to a movie? on 40 Years Ago, the US Lost a Nuclear Bomb · · Score: 5, Funny

    Gjordzilla??

  14. Re:That's 'cause... on Smarter Teens Have Less Sex · · Score: 1

    Well the chicks do dig a good barbershop quartet.

  15. Re:My review on the Poop Coffee (Kopi Luwak) on What is Your Favorite Way to Make Coffee? · · Score: 1

    There was some sort of link between civets and SARS but I don't think anything was proven, especially from civet crap coffee.

  16. Re:Big bargining chip against Apple? on Amazon to Open DRM-Free MP3 Music Download Store · · Score: 1

    Cowon made an iPod with those features, but they called it the Cowon iAUDIO X5. It does drag and drop, has no DRM, plays MP3, OGG, FLAC, WAV, etc, you can even reflash the player with the RockBox firmware. It just doesn't have the iPod look, or play Apple DRM (which you don't seem to care about anyway). http://www.cowonamerica.com/products/iaudio/x5/

  17. Re:You forgot one on The Air Car Nears Completion · · Score: 1
  18. Re:Oh, shit . . . on Genetically Modified Maize Is Toxic — Greenpeace · · Score: 1

    Monkeys & Gorillas are both primates, but they don't produce offspring. Even if they managed to cross polinate with the corn, it's unlikely that the hybrid would be fertile & reproduce.

    A monkey/corn hybrid would be disgusting, I am glad they can't reproduce.

  19. Re:Good ol' U of R on Videogames Sharpen Player Vision · · Score: 1

    I moved to Rochester from Southern California. I am not impressed. This only fun thing to do is urban explore all the abandoned buildings that are cropping up due to the city dying.

  20. Re:Who cares on Your House Is About To Be Photographed · · Score: 1

    Even if the dogs shot bees out of their mouths when they barked, having sharks with lasers on their heads in a moat would be better.

  21. Re:Driving in southern California on Running Your Electric Meter Backwards · · Score: 1

    Having grown up in Southern California let me explain. People in SoCal don't like the rain and are scared of it, and the dangers it poses. So the best solution is to drive around as fast as possible, thus limiting the amount of time you are on the road and out in the rain. Thereby cutting your risk of a rain related danger. I live in upstate NY now and people drive just as bad here if not worse. My theory is that people in upstate NY are accustomed to having the lines in the road and road signs covered in snow. So they drive without obeying them...all the time.

  22. Re:Mornings on What Breakfast Gets You Going? · · Score: 1

    Be cautious with Imitrex because the known side effects (which happened to me) are a worse headache and an upset stomach which makes you want to barf.

  23. Re:Yikes on Deleting Online Predators Act - R.I.P. · · Score: 1

    That is a sure way to leverage your synergy.

  24. Re:Not news to me on Human Sense of Smell Underestimated · · Score: 1

    Go back for a refund. The 25 piece bucket meal should have 10 biscuits, 2 mashed potatoes & gravy and 3 beaks.

  25. Re:sad on If Next-Gen Is Too Pricey Go Retro · · Score: 1

    Emulator!!! I hardly knew her!
