  1. Re:Degrees? on The Mathematics of Futurama · · Score: 0

    judging from the other replys to this post, i'd have to say:

    most ungotten joke ever!

  2. Re:i've done this myself and I offer these tips on LA to Oregon at Mach 9 · · Score: 1
    BTW: This also works well for filming Ballroom Dancing. It looks hillarious and cool at the same time. Try overlaying multiple segments of the dance at different oppacities and adding a black and white or sepiatone filter and playing witht the white balance for a great ghostly look.

    sweet! now i can host my own 'swinging wake'! Is this room actually stretching................?

  4. Re:Astroturf... on Cellphone as Virtual Mouse, Keyboard · · Score: 1

    oh, ok... i guess it was just the "wow! gee-wiz! cool" tone of the post, it just seemed.... fake i guess

  5. Re:wow! that's great!!!! on Cellphone as Virtual Mouse, Keyboard · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    why was i modded offtopic? the way the post is written sounds like someone trying to drum up 'buzz' about it, hence the very definition of astroturf, sheesh!

  6. wow! that's great!!!! on Cellphone as Virtual Mouse, Keyboard · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    anyone else smell astroturf?

    no, but i found the bordello!

  8. Re:The best thing about the TG16 on NEC's Turbografx-16 History Recounted · · Score: 3, Funny

    it wasn't just you

    kids were adamnant back then about their favorite system, i remember the arguments we all had about the TG16 being '16 bit' or not, problem was, we as 12 year olds had NO IDEA what a 16 bit processor was, of course that didn't stop anyone from getting into PHYSICALLY VIOLENT FIGHTS over the issue. I think that the general consensus at my junior highschool was "instead of using a 16 bit processor, it uses two 8-bit ones", whatever that was suppsoed to mean

  9. Re:Original Star Wars like the Beatles on Can Star Wars Episode III Be Saved? · · Score: 1

    after rereading this post a few times, i figured it out, this is one of the most masterfull trolls i've ever read, just brilliant

    little ape men? amakin? queen armadillo? did you even WATCH these movies?

  12. Re:Class vs. Camp on Star Wars Episode III : Birth Of The Empire · · Score: 1

    um, wrong
    anything in the OT Novels that doesn't contradict the movies outright is officially considered canon by Lucasfilm. Hell, George even WROTE the first novel himself. The RotJ novel briefly describes the lava fight, as Lucas had instructed to the author.

    so i'm afraid, dear AC, YOU are the idiot

  13. Re:Wierd on Star Wars Episode III : Birth Of The Empire · · Score: 1

    i mean EU... what the hell is OU?

  14. Re:Wierd on Star Wars Episode III : Birth Of The Empire · · Score: 1

    OU is inadmissible in a court of canon, sorry

  15. Re:Class vs. Camp on Star Wars Episode III : Birth Of The Empire · · Score: 1

    yeah, knocked off into the lava, but... it doesn't say from what

    personally, i always envisioned Anakin and Obiwan fighting on a bridge over the lava, echoing the father revalation scene in Empire when Luke lets go and alows himself to fall down the air shaft... THAT would have the 'class' that the grandparent post is talking about

    but instead we get floating surfboards.........

  16. Re:In the land of empty tanks on Out of Gas · · Score: 1

    dont get me wrong, i try to buy organic whenever i can, my girlfriend and i go to our local farmer's market every saturday to do our grocery shopping (Lancaster PA) but the average american doesn't do this, i would wager that some vegetarians don't even do this
    and while i may have the benefit of buying from local Amish farmers who still plow their fields with mules, most farmers are still burning more gasoline in their tractors
    i guess i'm saying, yes, organic is a great idea, but it has to move from the "fad" stage to something more rooted in the culture

  17. Re:In the land of empty tanks on Out of Gas · · Score: 1

    how many gallons of gas does it take to produce one pound of vegetables?
    there's petrochemical fertilizer, pesticides, etc... not to mention the cost of shipping it to the store just like all foods

    sure Clippy was (and still is) annoying, but you could change him into something else... i use Rocky the dog at work in Outlook... i mean, who doesn't want an animated golden retriever puppy on their screen?!

  24. Calculus II on Math And The Computer Science Major · · Score: 1

    At Millersville University, we were required to take Calculus I and II. Calc II was nearly impossible, it was notorious for stopping CS majors dead in our tracks. I took it 3 times before passing, and knew several other CS majors who had every single requirement filled EXCEPT for that class, and couldn't graduate because of it.
