The kind of heathen who copy edits for a living. As someone else said, if you use double spaces in a piece that’s going to be professionally edited or typeset, someone like me has to remove them all (whatever we think of them personally, the major style guides made a hard and fast decision on the issue a long time…

good lord someone just tell me what to do. yes? no?

Let me make sure I got this right....

I appreciate the knowledge imparted from this source, but I was hoping there was a better trick than just find dry wood and oh, also have special matches.

One way to test if a site can withstand heavy traffic. Post it on lifehacker :)

So I’m reading this and the wording doesn’t sound any different than when they said if you have a pirated version of Windows 7 or 8 you will be included in the upgrade path as well.

Here's my personal solution. No, it's not a mintyboost. Just four AA batteries in series. $1.50 total to build plus the cost of the altoids and batteries. Works great, almost got me kicked off a flight.

The difference is that George Carlin was a comedian. Not a philosopher, not your coworker, not your best friend.

I'd be willing to bet that outside of his acts - George Carlin was a pretty nice guy. It is one thing to speak your mind.

@michaelper22: Can I just say, it drives me nuts how Macheads refer to any non-Apple hardware as "bootleg". As if Apple invented everything and everybody else makes cheap knockoffs...
