How would I protect millions of people? Simple. Fire the screeners and install a sturdy locked door on the cockpit of all the planes. Money and time are now saved!

We are building a fighting force... of extraordinary magnitude.

Cast-iron tea set, huh? Do I detect the sound of someone who got scammed a couple hundred bucks by Teavana with their made-up pitch about the benefits of their $200 cast-iron teapots?

Yeah, I'm gonna go with Fox here and suggest that you get someone to talk to about that. The games aren't going to help you with your problems, and neither will internet people. Making friends can be learned, but just plopping yourself in a club may not be the best first step towards that.

Sure can. Player A did not receive his stuff back. Player A is still alive today. That's 100% evidence that he in fact did not kill himself 4 realz if he didn't get his stuff back.

Ugh, Jesus. You people are supposed to be gamers, I shouldn't have to spell this out for you. THERE WAS NEVER A REAL SUICIDE THREAT. IT WAS A CON. I will now explain in the easiest possible manner that I can think of.

Okay, no. This guy didn't run in front of the group of people and tell them that he was depressed only to be met with laughter. His in-game text messages where he contacted the person who blew up his ship and took the cargo were displayed to the crowd, in which he threatened to kill himself if the other person…

No, what was shown was a player sending a whine about how having their virtual spaceship blown up was going to make them kill themselves. While playing a game where virtual spaceships blow each other up. This is not a new phenomenon in online PvP games, ever since Ultima Online and maybe even before, you'd find…

No, he's right. The bottoms of sleeping bags don't perform as well. I was camping on snow once with scouts as a teenager, and the snow under most of the tents was melted in the morning, in patches that corresponded to the sleeping bag placements inside the tents. The only one who hadn't done so was one scout who,…

Yeah, if you don't have an ipad already the new one looks dandy. But if you already owned the ipad 2, it's more of a sidegrade than upgrade; you pay in size and weight for the boosted screen resolution.

No, that's not what they got. The battery life isn't longer. The processor isn't faster. The graphics chip is faster, but has to push four times the pixels, so the end result is probably a wash. The screen is definitely better, but like I mentioned elsewhere, you probably can't see all those extra pixels from more…

At fifteen inches from my eyes, I can't see the difference between my retina ipod and older not-retina ipod. Most people use the ipad either on a lap or on a table, even further away from their eyes. I can't believe that the new screen is visibly different at that range.

This is why it's a lie:

Bear in mind, that's how it looks with your eye about an inch from the screen. Those sprites are small. Sit about three feet back from your monitor to get a better impression of how it would actually look for most ipad users. Can you see a difference? Sorta. Can you see it while the sprites are running around on…

It looks like (from my admittedly brief reading) they've anticipated that by never having the file requester connect directly to the file hoster. If George has a file and Tom wants it, the request is first routed through Sam and Harry and baton-passed back and forth. That way if 'George' is actually Agent George,…

Yeah. That's not a typo.

Why would anyone want to play Civ V? Upgrade to IV and you get not only a better game, but Leonard Nimoy.

Step 1: Get a cheap netbook.

Admittedly, saying that letting your girlfriend win will have her giving you a blowjob is setting the bar pretty low as far as transgressive humor goes. Gilbert Gottfried wouldn't even slow his car down if he saw the guy crossing the street. If he really wanted to impress, he should have said that letting your…

There's this thing known as transgressive humor. It may not be for everyone, but I do wish that the people who didn't get it would stop trying to ruin things for those who do. As a bit of free advice, if you go to see a comedian and they say something about selling babies to gypsies to get money to pay off jews to…
