This is disgusting. If I found out someone I knew was doing this, I would disassociate from them.

It took ten months, uncountable phone calls to the Philippines and 5 service visits for my ISP to properly install a single phone and ethernet jack in my house, ten months during which I had multiple daily outages while everyone else around me, most of whom have the same provider, had normal service. So, complete…

Everybody I know who is overweight lies about what and how much they eat. My mother eats chocolate bars anytime she has to drive more than 20 minutes, hides salted nuts in her desk drawer that she munches on all day between meals and guzzles wine with nearly every meal so, despite going to the gym 6 days a week, only…

Is your family friend Janeane Garofalo in 1993?

The closest Best Buy to where I live right now is easily a half hour drive from my house, more in rush hour, but an hour in the car is still faster than 48 hours and would be the route I'd take for anything I felt I needed urgently, even with sales tax and likely a slightly higher price.

I've done it that way but it hurt my hands to try to husk it while it was hot from being cooked. It also seemed completely illogical and was so wet that I got no char.

I just don't see what you (someone) could possibly need so urgently that you don't need it urgently enough to run out to Best Buy or wherever that day to get it. Either it's urgent or you can wait 2-5 days. A friend of mine who has Prime was completely unaware that there even was free shipping on orders $25 and up for…

What did people do before dental floss?

This is not a potato hack.

No, it's 2 day shipping for $80 a year versus 2-5 day shipping for free. You're paying $80 a year for what is already free. Maybe you live in some really remote part of the world like Nunavut, but in both the major cities and small towns I've lived in shipping has never taken longer than 5 days and most often arrives…

I really don't understand the lure of Prime for those who have it. Everything I buy from Amazon already costs more than $25 so I get free shipping anyway. Why would you pay for what's already free? Things that cost less than $25 that I might need or want are easily available from any drugstore, grocery store or gas…

Yeah, that would be terrible for my body. I have compression fractures and herniated discs in my neck and to have my neck craned back like that to look UP at a screen all the time would land me in the ER. Much better to have the screen at eye level so your neck is not straining at all.

My desk is a fully adjustable, ergonomic sit or stand desk made out real wood by a guy in Michigan. It's awesome and you should get one, too. His website is a bit dated, but the products are great. The hutch shelves hold my 6 2TB drives and my Mac Mini and Blu-Ray burner. The top desk has my speakers, modem/router and…

Up until now, I've used Dealzmodo and Deals @ Kinja.com for many purchases. I'm fed up with Adam Clark Estes biased, ignorant, completely factually incorrect propaganda masquerading as tech blogging and I will no longer click on any links to sales advertised by Gawker/Gizmodo/Kinja until Estes is either fired or…

How can we change that, though?

The amount of self-delusion and wilfull denial of obvious facts in so many of the comments here is just pathetic.

I liked Piper. I loathe Larry and her idiot best friend whatever her name was.

Too bad all their clothes are all too gigantic they don't fit slim women.

The interviewer said 'went' instead of 'gone'? I would have ended it there.

Most lung, throat and mouth cancers are caused by HPV...which smokers are statistically more likely to get because they engage in 'risky' behaviors such as oral sex.
