"Months of diving courses"? I wonder what special courses he had to take? Here it only takes about a months worth of weekends to get your licence

"I'm a little taken aback by anyone calling himself an artist because of my feeling that that's the kind of designation that other people should give. You can be an artist in any field, but getting a degree to call yourself an artist would be like getting a diploma to call yourself a genius. If your work is good…

Which pixel is the fan?

Why the fuck do fans do shit like this? I've been to baseball games and been in the front row. It has never occurred to me to lean over and try to get a foul ball when the outfielder is bearing down on me. I can't even imagine trying to get a football like this jackass. Just spend the $20 and buy a fucking football at…

Do you have any idea of what you are actually talking about? As you said, you quit paying attention years ago. Apparently that was about 10 or more years ago.

The Pringles can is safe to store food if the can is at room temperature. That doesn't mean that it is safe at oven temperatures.

I'm always skeptical about anything posted on Lifehacker relating to foods. The Pringles can is not made for cooking. Is it safe? Are there any toxic chemicals that might come out of the can when it is heated to oven temperatures? Is the cooked food safe to eat?

Mr. sundrialdragon,

"The report claims that Google is building always-listening functionality into Android as a whole[.]"

I wish I could find the thread that had the counter for this argument, but basically if you do the math, the amount of extra fuel needed to land with rockets rather than parachutes is fairly negligible (again, I don't remember the exact number, but it was less than 10% of the total take-off weight.).

You neglected to back up either of your opinions...

"The luxurious seats are stuffed with eagle down, and the dashboard laced with the beaks of 1000 eagles. Also there are some eagles under the floorboards."
