@imaeffinginger: A well equipped photographer, huh? You'd think it would hurt more when he got his monopod broken.

@linuxpirates: Ha! That's awesome.

@socket7: Exactly. Ok, it's probably not actually illegal to possess a copy of that document, but your average cop is not going to make the distinction, and you're going to have to explain it after you've been booked and thrown in the tank.

@WheresWinPho: Actually, I was thinking that the second you show this secret document, which clearly states that civilians should not be informed of its contents, to a law enforcement official, you are going to federal prison for violation of state secrets.

@linuxpirates: That is so romantic. No wonder the Greeks are so well known for their lovemaking skills. Hey, who can wait 5 whole months without getting some, amirite?

@cicadymn: Too right! If Obama wanted to end pat-downs, he could just order it right now.

@bombastinator: I certainly hope it turns out like that. I missed out on the CGI revolution, so this is my next chance. Remember, while those early and late 90's were going on, those companies were raking in the dough.

@wætherman: I've only had WD-40, but immediately after that I decided I wanted to learn about molecular gastronomy and the number for poison control.

@Aristeia: I've heard worse, so why not? I promise to use it at least once more.

@Mutsumi Mitsuba: That telemarketer listened to porno for 10 minutes? That's some pretty good stamina. I mean, if I could make it 10 minutes I'd be pretty happy with that, you know? Unless it was the part where the cable went out, then I could probably last a while. Unless it was Fox News that went out, then I'd be…

@BIGE1312: There are parts of Mongolia, and probably Russia, that could easily substitute for Mars. Put some limits on them such as air supply for their suits, and they'd be able to immerse themselves (that is, pretend very well) in the experience.

@muyiwa: I have several large boxes of stored power bricks. I'd much rather have a limited number of transformer sources where I can power DC devices more efficiently from a single multi-output station. Think of all that power being lost during conversion.

@FriedPeeps will kill for a CR-48: Wait, what? Oh man, spoiler that! Aw, damn, now I'm just depressed.

@minibeardeath: That bugged me too, but I think what he meant was that Google has a soft spot for search, not that search was their soft spot. Bad writing, reasonable sentiment.

@komododave: Afterwards they can tell fortunes from the remains.

I'm thinking "worst device, most intentional device" meant it was pretty mean-spirited even for a bomb meant to harm civilians. Something like packed with broken glass and rusty nails or drill bits (like Eraser). Or maybe full of sharpened Pokemon.

@Myrna Minkoff (nontaxable preposition): I'm not passing judgement, but this part "it'll pay for itself quickly" sets off my govdar (radar for government abuse).

@chaboud: It's quite the opposite in my world. I've seen grown men back away from a fight when they were both completely in the right and could almost certainly win it. Why? Because they don't believe conflict solves things.

@SkipErnst: Not intentionally, but the thought was certainly something that could be in the book, yes.

@Dogen: You wouldn't be allowed to embarrass the TSA. You would only be allowed to test the OTHERS, such as airlines, airports, passengers, and vendors.
