My mother used to extract mine and my siblings' teeth with pliers (once they were loose enough). We didn't like it, but I never thought it was dangerous. She would be careful, too. Then at 43 she started dental school and nowadays she pulls people's teeth out to her heart's content (with proper pliers) and gets paid…

Android user? right....

No, I actually meant what I said: check [en.wikipedia.org] and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ugly_Betty, compare the dates

I know exactly what you mean. Sometimes I will start exactly at the point I'm trying to make, then I have to rewind and explain how I got there. I think it makes people think I'm stupid or something.

I REALLY doubt he is being paid to sort the stuff. If he is a government worker at all, he is probably selecting a few to save for his own use. Same thing that happens here in Brazil...

Then it would be a ripoff of a ripoff. Check your sources.

I want one!

I agree with ct323i below, I used to be one of those kids who were too shy or embarassed to say what I thought. Also, there's the "teacher's pet" type of person, who will never give other people the chance to answer, and the teacher can't even pretend he didn't hear the question/comment.

I totally agree with you there, I used to be one of those kids who were too shy or embarassed to say what I thought.

Me likes the gizmodo font!

And in these days of emails, word processors and instant messaging, when people are writing with pen and paper less and less, it wouldn't be a bad idea to practice your handwriting skills a bit. While your card probably would 'stand out' with bad handwriting, it would only make me think: "this one I can toss, I can't…
