  1. Re:Your money is not yours on Long Odds For Online Gaming Legislation In US · · Score: 1

    Poker with your friends might be a game of skill. Poker with 4 other people who could all be in the same room together over the internet is not a game of skill, it's a sucker's bet.

  2. Online prostitution?!? on Long Odds For Online Gaming Legislation In US · · Score: 1

    How much bandwidth do you need to ship a prostitute through the 'net???

  3. Re:Punish the problems created by the vice on Long Odds For Online Gaming Legislation In US · · Score: 1

    For example, the fastest way to make people shape up in their use of intoxicants is to pass a law that says "no state of intoxication brought on by willing consumption or or exposure to intoxicating substances shall be a mitigating factor in the assessment of guilt for any felony offense or be used as a basis for reducing the sentence upon conviction.

    While I agree that "Hey, I was shitfaced at the time!" should never be a valid excuse, I think you are overestimating the ability of intoxicated people to make rational decisions about their own behavior!

  4. Cheek swabs on House Votes To Expand National DNA Arrest Database · · Score: 4, Funny

    Wouldn't the results from a DNA test of a cheek swab of someone arrested for prostitution be, uh, somewhat confusing?

  5. Re:What's the point? on Google TV Announced With Intel, Sony, and Logitech · · Score: 1

    My daughter has been switching inputs on the TV since she was 7 (we've got a Wii). She's been using the DVD player built into the other TV since she was 4. It is not clear that my wife knows how to do either of these. Necessity is the mother of figuring out how stuff works.

  6. One question on Google TV Announced With Intel, Sony, and Logitech · · Score: 1

    How does this service fix the problem that Bruce Springsteen first complained about 20 years ago?

  7. Re:Errr on Australia Air Travelers' Laptops To Be Searched For Porn · · Score: 1

    I hear it is pretty easy to move to Canada if you have $100,000 and agree to keep it in a Canadian bank... I've always thought the US should use that system as well.

  8. Re:We need a special Goatse for the occasion! on Australia Air Travelers' Laptops To Be Searched For Porn · · Score: 1

    Hey, if they didn't get off on pictures of morbidly obese men being fisted by dwarves in kangaroo outfits, they wouldn't be porn inspectors on the first place! This is kind of like wrestling a pig in the mud... it accomplishes nothing, and the pig likes it!

    Lolcats... I get off on Lolcats!

    We better hope the censoring officer swings both ways then, otherwise half the point out there isn't going to do it for him!

  11. Re:Think of the children and make them remember yo on Australia Air Travelers' Laptops To Be Searched For Porn · · Score: 1

    You seem to be confusing Urology with Proctology...

  12. Re:Wow... And all this is for our own good... on Australia Air Travelers' Laptops To Be Searched For Porn · · Score: 1

    Fascist leaders always want to keep all the really good stuff for themselves -- porn, guns, drugs, rentboys...

  13. Re:So... on Australia Air Travelers' Laptops To Be Searched For Porn · · Score: 1

    Fact is, a gun's primary (and arguably only real) function is to shoot (at) people, a motor vehicle's primary function isnt running people over.

    I don't know what kind of guns you own, by all my guns have a primary purpose of shooting at animals.

  14. Re:The label "mine" is mine. on Australian Women Fight Over "Geekgirl" Trademark · · Score: 1

    I just write "Property of Asshole" on everything I own. I have very few problems with other people claiming ownership. However, I do often get told, "This must be yours, asshole!"

  15. Re:Oil on Australian Women Fight Over "Geekgirl" Trademark · · Score: 1

    Neither one of you has any imagination. The optimum media for wrestling in is obviously strawberry Jello!

  16. Re:Why 'girl'? on Australian Women Fight Over "Geekgirl" Trademark · · Score: 1

    Why do rodeo contestants, even the most macho and mature ones, always calls themselves "cowboys"?

  17. Yo mamma! on Lingerie Store Required To Get Food Permit For Edible Undies · · Score: 1

    Yo mamma's butt so big, her edible undies could keep a family of 4 fed for a month!

  18. Re:How is the porn part relevant? on FTC Takes Out Porn- and Botnet-Spewing ISP · · Score: 1, Informative

    Right... like you have time to read every email all your children receive before they do. I barely have enough time to do that with my wife's email!

  19. Re:So be it. on Lingerie Store Required To Get Food Permit For Edible Undies · · Score: 2

    I hate to say this, but ANYTHING in an adult novelty store might be eaten by someone, depending on how perverse their tastes are. Especially the massage oil.

  20. Re:How is the porn part relevant? on FTC Takes Out Porn- and Botnet-Spewing ISP · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Free porn: good. Porn spam: very bad (my daughter has an email address too.)

  21. Archeologists' wild assumptions again on World's Oldest Sex Toy Was a Real Fire Starter · · Score: 1

    While the object being used as a fire striker is a fairly safe assumption, I see no logical reason for archeologists to always assume that any object that remotely resembles a phallus was actually used as a dildo. When archeologists 1000 years from now find a dong-shaped beer bong, I wonder what their conclusions as to it's use will be...

    No, scientists have been scientifically proven to cause cancer in laboratory mice.

  23. Re:Oh great on Researchers Restore Youthful Memory In Aging Mice · · Score: 4, Funny

    Two old men were out walking with their wives. The first man says to the other man, "I had a great dinner last night at... what was that place? Uh, what's the name of that red flower?" The second man suggests, "Rose?" The first goes on, "That's it." He then calls over to his wife, "Hey, Rose! What's the name of that restaurant we went to last night?"

  24. Your missing the benefits on Researchers Restore Youthful Memory In Aging Mice · · Score: 1

    You can hide your own Easter eggs, and you can laugh at the same joke every day! Of course they have problems too... like they forget to take their meds, and no one remembers to show up for the support group meetings.

    but I'll say it again: never before in our history has there been such a good time as now to be a mouse!
