  1. Re:That's nice, but... on Iranian App Helps Users Avoid Morality Police (reuters.com) · · Score: 1

    Their revolution wasn't hijacked by lslamists, it was always from the Islamists.

  2. Someone with no kids on NASA Is Already Studying What Sort of Person Is Best Suited For Mars (blastingnews.com) · · Score: 1

    'Cause Mars ain't no kind of place to raise your kids.

  3. Re:Huh? on A Bot That Drives Robocallers Insane · · Score: 5, Funny

    "Have your robot call my robot."

  4. An Oscar in the works? on Filmmaker Forces Censors To Watch 10-Hour Movie of Paint Drying (ibtimes.co.uk) · · Score: 5, Funny

    It will probably sweep the Oscars... as long as it's white or beige paint.

  5. Re:Naughty cannabis on French Drug Trial Leaves One Brain Dead and Five Critically Ill (theguardian.com) · · Score: 2

    Simple misunderstanding. It wasn't a cannabis based drug, it was cannibal based.

  6. Re:Buying!! on Big Trouble for Bitcoin (medium.com) · · Score: 3, Funny

    I'm putting everything in Quatloos.

  7. Re:Already has photo attachments; why not text? on Twitter To Extend 140-Character Limit For Tweets (recode.net) · · Score: 1

    So basically email?

    LIke a "reply all" email. :)

  8. 2) Religious nutcases will lobby for a ban on this. Because God doesn't want you messing with genetics.... he only wants your donations.

    Why would this bother religious nutcases in particular? The last I saw, the anti-GMO crowd did not look particularly religious. (Well, not fundamentalist Christian, anyway. They might be new-age Gaia worshipers.)

  9. Re:The world is happy about Lucas not participatin on George Lucas Criticizes the Force Awakens (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    But Ian McDiarmid took Palpatine's ham-laden dialog and chewed on it with a side order of scenery, and it was delicious. :)

  10. Re: Yeah yeah [Jar Jar fan] on George Lucas Criticizes the Force Awakens (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    I'm also a Scooby and Shaggy fan for similar reasons...

    But do you go as far as being a Scrappy fan?

  11. Re:FORD? on Report: Google Partners With Ford To Make Self-Driving Cars (yahoo.com) · · Score: 4, Funny

    If it's Ford, I hope they're self-repairing as well.

  12. All criticism of Islam or resistance of Muslim immigration is hate speech. Modulate yourself, or else.

    So I guess your position is that you can be as free as you like to say stuff as long as it isn't "Praise Allah".

    How do you get that out of his/her comment?

  13. Re:Spike TV on Spike TV Is Turning Red Mars Into a TV Series (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    And not to forget, Spike TV was born out of "The National Network," which was a renamed "The Nashville Network." I remember a lot of ST:TNG in their "National" phase, if I remember. They still went by TNN, so I thought it was still "Nashville" at the time.

  14. Aabaco? That's genius! on Yahoo To Spin Off Everything That Makes It Yahoo (nytimes.com) · · Score: 1

    Meyer chose that name so that it will be in front of the phone book!

    This time it will be the Chinese beating them to the lunar surface, then building a Moon-base to dominate the inner planets with a vast array of Maglev launchers

    And an iPhone factory.

  17. Re:Very insensitive campaign! on New Campaign Features Internet Trolls On Roadside Billboards (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    That will teach them. If it's one thing trolls want to avoid, it's attention in a public forum.

  18. But your comment was strangely not too out of place. :)

  19. Re:Then what are they going to do with the extra t on TV Networks Cutting Back On Commercials (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    TV shows are now 23 minutes long.

    There can be only one answer to what they're going to do with the extra time: run miniature infomercials.

    "So, what is a 'miniature infomercial'?"

    "It's like a regular infomercial, just shorter. Say, 30 seconds."

  20. "Dammit..... Jim.... " *eyes close*

  21. It's one helluva form!

  22. Sorry, Scotty on That "Unbreakable" Glass That's "As Strong As Steel" Isn't Either · · Score: 1

    I went to MINIX.com, and found I could get an email address - that works right in my browser! - for only 35 dollars a year.

    Oh, minix CON.

    Nevermind

  24. Re:46:37 Says It All on The Return of OS/2 Warp Set For 2016 (techrepublic.com) · · Score: 1

    I've always said, where is the OS for the Transgendered African-American-Polynesian Differently-abled community?

  25. Re:Disruptive? on The Most Disruptive Technology of the Last 100 Years Isn't What You Think · · Score: 1

    Smoking = carcinogens Pickling = excessive salt Canning = Preservatives Refrigeration = lower temperature I choose refrigeration .

    Come on mods. "Insightful"? Bunch of stupid millennials ya'll are.

    Smoking is not the same as barbecue or burned meat juice/flesh and doesn't contain the same level alleged carcinogens.

    Maybe the OP thought that you made a smoked ham by getting the pig addicted to Marlboros.
