@FrankN.Stein: You might want to refine your statement about religion and politics in Ireland to the North. It really isn't an issue in the Republic. One of the leading senators, and a potential candidate for President, is an openly gay Protestant...

@b.picolo: The Galactic Empire begs to differ...

@Chris Braak: Maybe not a full robot. Let's take it one step at a time - people need to adjust to the idea...

@RandomThought: Angela Merkel is chairman of the Christian Democratic Union, if I remember correctly.

"To show the extent of the character's Muppet origins, Rinzler showed a photo of Yoda hanging out with Kermit and Miss Piggy in the swamps of Dagobah."

@parkpy: To be fair any of the cooked ROMs from XDA are pretty good, and quite a jump over stock.

@screemname: [maps.google.com]

@hawkeye18: Mobilespeedhumplopnik.

@ModernBawhair: Yeah, if it finds that, it'll end up living in its dark basement, glued to the internet, shunning social contact and relying on its parents for support...

@That-One-Person: Ah right, the woman that found out about it.

@Ash78, Jalopnik's new weekend beer drinker: True. The A4 had a lot of influence in the look, too.

@◄DЯӘω αлd nø╥ Џ►: Wow - your positive energy punched straight through the right border!

@Ash78, Jalopnik's new weekend beer drinker: Quality-wise, yep, agree 100%.

@SeraphX2: What if I just want the Android smartphone best whose hardware and software are best suited to me? The carriers are secondary to that.

@Ash78, Jalopnik's new weekend beer drinker: Timeless, due to the fact that Volkswagens, like Porsches, have never changed.

The chart seems to fall down if you have no provider restrictions - i.e. no preexisting contract...

They all look reasonable, except for the markings for turning right from the outside lane. They seem to put you into the same piece of road as the car inside you...

@krypterband: COTD - put it better than I ever could. I'll let its granddaddy (who thought along much the same lines) have the last say though..
