@Settings: No. I politely disagree (this is all opinion anyway). I feel that you're using weird when you should be using unnatural. Nothing in nature is unnatural for the reasons you stated. But weird is just what deviates from your own perception of all that you perceive is not weird.

@Zachonium: I know right! I'm not sure if I can cope with that. Control the Ducks!?

@Settings: Weird and Normal are subjective qualifications of observable and conceivable reality, which he admits "exists only in our minds".

@macpatrik: Yeah.. it looks like it tires itself out just by being on. Everything looks slow and awkward.

Wait, won't painting everything white raise the Earth's... um... albed... no.. libedo? And then the Earth will start acting like a real sex-crazed jerk and none of the female planets will want anything to do with it. And even Venus will give Earth the ol' cold shoulder and usher in a new ice age?

Definitely cool, but where on a daily basis could I get away with wearing glowing neon circles on my wrist? Whether at work or driving home at night, it would just be too distracting.

Has this been addressed somewhere else or is this the standard these days? What's with the smiley button? Given the space constraints it seems like an odd choice to designate one button for emoticons. Would have seemed more logical to make that button the @ symbol and add smileys as a 2nd function elsewhere. Or am…

@melonade97: This

42, or 4 and 2

@ScarSquirrel: You heard me. I put some burnt toast with peanut butter out on the back porch this morning by the big oak tree. And now it's gone.

@Super Gizmodoman: Don't worry. The adhesive used is mostly C4 based. All the scientists have to do it push one little button and then all the probes will blow themselves off the seal's heads and float to the surface. It isn't as if the seals will have this stuff glued to their foreheads' forever.

@alek2407: All right... I'm not spending anymore time on this.

@gigabrain: HA HA!! Secret's out Gigabrain. You fell square into my trap... a Squirrel trap to be precise.

@gigabrain: Parents! Who are you kidding Gigabrain? Your parents were a hypodermic needle and a clip board. You appear to me be some sort of T-shirted Hamster super demon (who may or may not have a price tag clipped to his ear).

@Willard Fillmore: No. That's the point. Mac users are far too public. I mean... what's the point of owning a Mac if people don't see you using it, right?

No!

My TI-86 is right here next to me as I type this. Had to buy it for a freshman Calc course far too long ago. It's been living in my bag for 13 years. (Bags have changed, it hasn't). Been all around the world with me.

@TangoTL: It's called a laser ring gyro and utilizes the Sagnac affect .

@Facebook: This is not the exact same type of thing because the services provided by Geico and the fire department are completely different.

@Trebuchet: Or! They could have put out the fire and sent them a bill for $75 since that was the initial sum of money in dispute. It's the government so they could have tossed in a few late fees to bump it up to an even $100. You know... to teach those Cranicks a lesson.
