If life were like IRC - Happy Holidays everyone! [By: phsspok / 2003-12-24]

If life was like IRC I could just tell all the (l)users who call me that alt+F4 will fix their problem and they would disconnect themselves. Or tell them to type "/s someother.net" heehee -FrontSideBus
I would hate it if life were like the IRC... not only would I have to pratically wear my age, gender, and location on my t-shirt, I'd be kickbanned without warning everywhere I went. But I will admit, there'd be a lot more nude people walking around in public (and more bisexual females!). :) -Mushroom
those bisexual females, are probably bi males wanting attention :P sorry t burst your bubble *pop* -MrThou

My wife is a bubble wrap nut. Maybe this will get her to stop playing the sims -FrontSideBus
goddamn the sims is a stupid game, the GF just loves it. its like trading spaces she says..... thuper. -putahtek
I knew people that played the sims more then left the house.. i have no need to control a little virtual life. i can barly control mine. -Harm
You realize, of course, that with a little creativity, you can kill sims, right? -obie099
i've seen this before but never remembered the link..good way to kill boredom.. we are sooo slow its ridiculous.. and note on the sims I must say I have stopped playing because I know as soon as I pick it up I can't put it down.. I think there is some sort of subliminal message in the program that tells you to keep playing. -kmonson
yes. you can kill sims. I could give you a list of amusing methods if you like. ;) I once had a couple that had a baby, and when the baby turned into a kid, i made her kill her parents (i removed the door from their bedroom). then I made her capture and kill anyone who walked by her house. She had a lovely little graveyard in the backyard. ;) She was a very morbid child, named "Alice Wonderland". I like the sims. It's a good stress-relief. Create a family called "Starfish" and torture them. I promise it is fun! >:D -mousie
I played the sims awhile ago. GOt married, then the Wench made dinner and burned the house down! ON THE SAME NIGHT THEY GOT MARRIED! -MrThou
That is farking hilarious! I love the noise when you click on 'fresh sheet' -CommanderData
I prefer my Rise of Nations, and the odd bit of Call of Duty. -Warrick

Well, it would be a problem for your average starfish, you know. Whenever something has to be opened they're actually not risking their property, but whatever is left of their sanity as well... why do you think Creative's Jukebox Zen has been redesigned so that the cover opens and the battery can be replaced manually?

Whilst this is an old article and aimed at just pissing people off (it's not a serious write up), but when the starfish read this they can't see the tounge in cheek humour... I showed this to my friends mother and she pretty much wanted me to rip out her AMD Athlon CPU. -fearmyroot
"Most American families use trusted and responsible Internet Service Providers, such as AOL." ROTFLMAO! !!! -LaserGuru
I sent this link to my dad because I thought he'd get a laugh out of it, and 2 minutes later my mom called all freaked because I gave my brother an athlon board and a "faster" video card! BWAhahahahaha! -ladysethos
LOL! Loved it! Bookmarked it! -Spyder19
OMG. This is yet another example of people who panic over things they don't understand. But then again, I have to laugh my ass off about "trusted ISP" and "AOL" used in the same sentence, and blaming hacker activies on Quake. And I'm loving this stereotype of how hackers dress...because they're uniformly dressing in bright, day-glo colors...oh gawd...glad that isn't my dad. -techiegoddess
And further yet...I need to drink heavily after I realized how extremely funny this was because it was a spoof...now it's even funnier! -techiegoddess

dude wish the starfish that have read the article would not believe the falacy that the starfish author has written to brainwash all the starfish around the world believe that people that have a slightly higher IQ are hackers. and kiddies need not use computer for their gaming pleasure.
Also the term "hackers" apply to all computer afficionados that have the ability to enhance the capability of their computer. So if overclock my processor. And delete all the shite that MS puts on your computer so it will be much efficient and would not hang just like every other windows OS. -kennz
that makes me a hacker - technically speaking . -kennz
Bonzi Buddy and Comet Curser are hacking tools?!!! I smell parody, Onion style! -billybien
LOL. He probably only had a DOS window open, and his dumb sister freaked. I've been accused of being a "hacker" (which as we all know isn't even the proper term) because I was using it to quickly format a floppy. Argh. Everything in this list can also be signs of normal teenage crap. (With the exception of the ISP, however, I've had kids call up just to ask the download/upload speed and the price so they can sell mommy and daddy on it). Hopefully this article is a spoof. But the whole article reminds me of GTA: Vice City "Signs your child is a 'Red', they read complicated literature, have concern for thier fellow man... " ect. Clicking on the linked words tells me this MUST be a spoof site.... i hope... but some might be dumb enough to believe it... eg. AOL subs. -Zentar
Hmmm, now I'm not sure, the author identifies himself in other posts as a "baptist"...I'll just leave it there because anything further I'll say will be inflammitory against that version of christianity. Hmmm, now I feel like renaming folders with my old DOS script... -Zentar

I just read that too and came here to post it. All I can say is, what a fucking joke. Hey, here's an idea: Let's legislate it and institute a mandatory minimum sentence of 5 years for any person who offends another person of a different race or religion. Fucking assholes. This jackass obviously has way too much time on his hands. -RiffRaff
Some specific program language is specifically assigned terms such as master and slave. It would take a monumental change on par with the Y2K joke to change every existing program to refer to the drives as something else. BIOS and startup programs use the master and slave terminology. This is not just a simple 1 -2 click thing. This would be like removing the term IP from programming. -suprtechy26
Errr... I posted this one two days ago. So- I guess webmasters, scoutmasters and harbor masters are out? The Army has to get rid of master sergeants and master gunners? Is Ticketmaster out? USNO Master Time Clock? Master Lock Co? Master and Commander movie? -LaserGuru
Why stop there: What about black and white wires in the electrical system- shouldn't we make them all equally gray? Our ethernet runs here use some blue wire and some gray wire- this is a definate problem here in the South. I guess they need to change error messages to get rid of 'abort' and 'invalid'. What about the 'kill' command? -LaserGuru
Person sending request to vendors says, "nothing more than a plea to vendors to see what they can do." So how about a request to the thick-headed, thin-skinned, whining shit-for-brains fishie that was so easily offended by standard industry terminology to just STFU and get over it? I get offended on just about a weekly basis, and so far the sun and moon have continued to rise and set at their predicted times. Jeez. -Skylark
But without terminology the (l)users understand, such as "master" and "slave" units, how will they understand computers in movies? ;) -snowcrash
I also read there that LA is offering monetary recompense for the descendants of slaves. I want my share -- my ancestors were slaves also, although it was 5000 years ago! Really, though, if we are to let mere words affect us then we are definitely one sick society. (I guess we are one sick society, then.) -Captain Trips
Don't forget Britney... She can't be a "slave 4 n e 1" now. :P -RCNitro
I saw this link last night (my sweetie saw it on a different forum). It's pretty ridiculous. Then, I've had customers in LA say to me "why is it when my tv isn't working it's a black screen?". So I can't say I'm that surprised. Some one mentioned the male/female connectors. I wouldn't be surprised if next people wanted to change that too. But almost everything invented by men (or humans for that matter) has some sexual connotation eg. hydrolics, pistons, connectors, cars (I would refer you to Ferrari)... So yes, if this logic was extended, probably we'd see non-gender-named connectors. I'd wish they'd be politically correct other ways. Like have more hunky half-nude men on tv, instead of always bikini girls. Lets have "affirmitive action" in that sense! Ladies... who's with me? -Zentar
I ain't female, Zentar, but I'm with you on that one -teivrann

Man sues church over ringing bells - Yet another glaring example of why I hate people so much. [By: nicky / 2003-11-21]
Comment on this Link

I understand his complaint, but he's being an @$$. I live near several churches, one has a large festival that lasts two weeks with Greek music from dawn until dusk. It's extremily irritating, as they play the same selections over and over. But I'm not going to complain to authorities, it's a celebration of thier heritage. Likewise, there is a Fire Hall down the road, evertime they have a call I can hear thier siren. And being higher up, only makes the noise louder as it resonates off the concrete, but I'm not going to write angry letters to the firemen. My suspicion is this man has something against the Church itself. Then again, I'm sure if he lived in the countryside, this scrooge woiuld be writing angry letters to the crows and other birds! -Zentar

Actually, you don't *have* to change computers all the time. At my workplace, the fastest machine is a Celeron 400MHz. The slowest is a P100. All running Win98. If it isn't broke, don't fix it. -mhesseltine
The old gray clone, oh she aint' what she used to be... She aint what she used to be... <ducks flying lart> -BunnieTechBabe
same with sewing machines. a brand new top-of-the-line computer will be bottom of the dirtpile within maybe 2 years. my sewing machine is 35 years old and is a disgusting putrid olive green. when my mom brought it, the color was the height of fashion and the machine itself was top-quality. the color may be out of date now, but you'd be hardpressed to get a better machine for the price she paid for it. in fact, you couldn't. it's still top-quality. go figure. :P -mousie
This guy is a whiny asswipe starfish. Just like every other starfish if they took the time to at least ATTEMPT to educate themselves and listen once in awhile, they'd have no problem. However this isnt the case. They want to have everything be perfect and have somone wipe their ass too. Horeshit</rant> -firebird2k2
What a prat. He claims that Bill Gates invented the computer, it's Bill's fault that the power button is in a different place on every computer he has bought. Anyone who actually researched their story would know otherwise. Noone forced him to buy a computer; if he loves his typewriter so much why doesnt he just use that instead. If that site ws a forum i'd call troll -maidtina

Good article but once a starfish, always a starfish. They can try to hide it but in the end they still come out as morons. However, if this were taught as much as basic manners it would make out lives easier. -suprtechy26
I agree suprtechy - most of it is just manners. I can't count the number of times people get riled up and bitch at me as though I'm their personal punching bag. -teivrann
(smiles) with Teivrann, I'll agree. Some people don't have manners. However, in the reverse , I have had a lot of customers call me their personal saviour for stuff which was so idiotically simple it ain't funny. -Warrick
Truer words I ain't heard spoke... -PaseoGuy
amen to that! -kennz
specially sin 6! -RTFM
I hear #2 and #4 repeatedly, every farking day.... I should mass forward that enonomously to every e-mail address in my company's domain... <eg> -RiffRaff
Rule 2 is my favorite. And I will not help you if you can't turn on the computer because the phone is down the road. -techiegoddess
Forget about those who complain about having to pay for support. I talk to enough starfish who call me about stuff I couldn't help them with if I wanted. Then they get upset when I tell them that they need to call a long distance number to talk with the right people. and, "NO I WILL NOT TRANSFER YOU" -daeglo

Dance, iPod boy! - Remember Steve Ballmer making a prat of himself in the infamous "Dance Monkey boy" video? Well, it turns out he has got himself an iPod, so some joker has taken the "Monkeyboy" dance & turned it into a iPod ad. (If ya wanna see the original monkeyboy stuff it is here:- http://jokke.dk/media/balmer.html) [By: lineswine / 2003-11-08]
