  1. Exposed on Game Boy Zelda Comes With Source, Sort Of · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Is there a draft? I feel exposed. (See my username.)

  2. Re:Wow! on Takin' Care of Business and Working Paid Overtime · · Score: 1

    Besides working as a consultant, one can work as an employee that is represented by a collective bargaining association. There are thousands of represented engineers and scientists who negotiate together. Many of these unions have contracts with fully paid overtime. We're professionals, like doctors and lawyers, who get paid for every hour worked.

  3. Re:Gotta love the scroll wheel. on New 'Mighty Mouse' Formula Found · · Score: 1

    A new Mighty Mouse formula? Could this be a third button?

  4. Re:Major bugfix? on PSP 2.0 Update Finally Released · · Score: 1
    remember, japan has a huge appetite for things cute and neat that flop BIG time here in the us.

    You mean like Pokémon?

  5. Going Dual on Apple Moves to All Dual-Processor Power Mac Lineup · · Score: 5, Funny

    We're still waiting on that dual-button mouse.

  6. Re:How about a game PLAYERS union? on Game Developers Unionize? · · Score: 1
    They're offering free beer at council meetings if we give up our dental plan.

    So long, dental plan!

    ("Dental plan!" ... "Lisa needs braces." .... "Dental plan!" ... "Lisa needs braces." ...)

  7. Re:What about Beakman's World? on The Science Guy Returns · · Score: 1

    I heard Nye speak at Cornell (he's an alum), and he noted that unlike Beakman, he deliberately avoided drama and plotlines on his show.

  8. Re:Good on IE7 Announced for Longhorn and WinXP · · Score: 1

    See, with this move, Firefox has won. The goal of Mozilla isn't to have 90% market share, it's to goad competition for better browsers and universal web standards. Forcing MS's hand to improve IE, after it had said "no more", is actually its surrender announcement in the browser wars.

  9. It looks like you're writing an iLetter on Apple iWork Screenshots · · Score: 5, Funny

    Without Clippy, Pages just doesn't seem as user-friendly.

  10. Re:Answers on SMS Text Messaging & Youth Debt One · · Score: 1
    > SMS's are silent and can be made discreetly (not discretely kiddies).

    Right, for that, you'll want to try Bender's Dating Service - Discreet and Discrete. Now with more discretion!

  11. Feynman's right... on What Do You Believe Even If You Can't Prove It? · · Score: 1
  12. Re:unexpected limelight? on Ubisoft CEO Speaks out Against EA Move · · Score: 1
    > Being French, I expected them to surrender...

    How does one say, "Your participle is dangling," in French?

  13. Dare to Be Stupid on The Battle Over Candidates' Wikipedia Entries · · Score: 3, Funny

    What about the great injustice over the Wikipedia "Weird Al" Yankovic entry?

  14. Re:The Killer App Would be... on Rumors of Next Generation of Ipods · · Score: 1

    True, without a killer SideTalkin' feature, a video iPod is doomed to fail shortly after an embarrasing launch.

  15. Re:There is a God on PSP Delayed Into 2005? · · Score: 1
    There is a God ... as far as Nintendo is concerned.

    Obviously. "Nintendo" translates literally to "leave luck to heaven".

  16. Re:Links? on When Games Become Comics · · Score: 1

    The Super Metroid comics are available on the Metroid Database, and I Googled to find the Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past series over at Zelda Central.
