Nobody believes the Earth is flat nowadays, surely? I know there are unbelievably stupid people around, but no-one is that dumb, right? Please?
Anyone caught on their phone while driving should face an immediate 3 month ban from driving, a big fine and have points put on their licence. If it ever happens again, then the ban becomes permanent. Zero tolerance time, no excuses, no ifs, ands or buts.
I feel very sorry for this woman's family as her air-headed negligence has robbed them of their loved one. I have sympathy for the woman to an extent - it's a shame she died - but the manner of her death was so easily prev...
While this doesn't offend me, it IS extra strength dumb. Gift from God my ass, it's a gift from extremely smart people...the kind of smart people who are often ridiculed by the more extremist religious types and would've been held back if not for the waning influence of religion over the years.
Religion has a capacity for good in terms of the ideas presented being able to influence people positively...but it's dogma and tradition is ultimately very backward and makes ...
Do the people saying "get rid of booth babes" have no consideration for the ladies losing a paying job because people who complain want to feel morally superior? Why not ask the women if they want the concept scrapped? Perhaps because the perpetually offended types might not like the answer, IMO.
When they advertised Diet Coke to women, there was a whole ad campaign full of hunky men to catch their attention. Sex sells - and by that, I mean it catches the attention, which...
Yes, but a Nike shirt doesn't collect data on you, and those around you when you wear it.
Anyone not wary of a camera being thrust in their face is a person a little too naive for their own good. A CCTV camera monitoring an area of a town centre is one thing, a camera attached to everyone's head that records all sorts of data on the user and those around them is quite another. The concept is similar, but the latter is far more invasive than the former.
Think logically for a second. You say nobody looks at the recordings unless you've done something wrong....how do they know that you've done something wrong unless they are, in fact, monitoring your recordings?
Progress should not infringe on the privacy of the individual. You say simple minded paranoia, I call your position simple minded acceptance. Why should large corporations have access to so much data on people? Crime prevention via CCTV in city centres is one thing,...
Congrats on being a moron. You WILL kill someone doing what you're doing...it's only a matter of time.
Besides, I wonder if your sentiment would be the same if a drunk driver or someone without insurance rear ended you. I mean, there's laws against those as well, and you're so sick of these laws....
Just came to post the same sentiment....wasting police time should be enough to charge this moron with.
"Ohhh, I'm a comedian and SOOOOO funny...let's screw with the police for the jollies".
Tool.
Why stop at 8k, why not 16k, or 32k? Oh, right, you need content first because without content, you just have a really expensive screen that will make 1080p content look worse than your current set up. Yay! Sign me up for that....can't wait to make my blu rays look mediocre!
If you want to censor the porn on your internet, you should have to put it in writing to your ISP that you want it blocked.
I'm sick of the lack of responsibility of a huge number of parents nowadays...they want everything to bend to their convenience rather than them having to do any leg work themselves. They don't like violent or sexual movies/TV shows? They want them all banned rather than actually taking steps to monitor what their kids are doing on a one to one level......
You'd need to be an absolute idiot to pay that amount of money when you could simply wait a couple of weeks. I'd like a PS4 for launch, but if I can't get it, I'd be fine with waiting a little while as I still have games to play on PS3, PC and Wii U.
There's absolutely no reason to be paying so much. The old saying proves true, "A fool and his money are soon parted".
The problem is, that's not what they said. They made up some BS about server side calculations being vital to running the game. They dressed it up as a service and "vision" to benefit gamers, but it was nothing of the sort....they blatantly lied about it.
If they'd have come out from the start and stated it was DRM and called it Sim City Online, then they wouldn't be in the mess they are now in terms of negative publicity over the botched launch, their terrible...
There will be some saying "Oh isn't this funny and quirky?", to which I say no. No it isn't. It's stupid and ridiculous beyond words.
Anybody donating to this deserves a punch in the face for being so blindingly stupid. Put the money towards a charity and do some damn good with it.
I don't agree with this notion of Tips being added as a standard charge. Tips should be earned by good, friendly service. It shouldn't be the customers job to pay the shortfall in a waiter/waitresses wage due to cheap employers.
See, you're just throwing out the label and providing no reasons to counter his argument. He said quite plainly why he feels that way...you simply responded with the equivalent of "nuh-uh!".
Build quality is one thing, but really, what are you doing with a laptop every day that necessitates such a premium? I've had several "creaky and plasticky" Windows laptops, used them everyday as you would use a laptop - moved it around from place to place et...
I liked the picture quality of plasma, but the image retention did start to bother me. It's only temporary, and much better than it used to be, but my eye seemed to constantly notice it and it distracted from what I was watching.
A decent LCD is my preferred choice now, preferably with backlit LED as Edge lit LED is often quite flakey and can provide unwanted effects. I have a decent edge lit LED at the moment, but the last two before that were uneven.

What makes you think that jack who wouldn't consider those who threatened Bush to be lowlifes too? He said nothing to indicate otherwise, so I wonder why you posted something like this at all?
Why go for the political divide when jack who made no indication of doing so?
Overly defensive?
The only arrests I've heard of in the UK for tweets and the like have come fairly recently, and it was for Troll behaviour such as targeting the relatives of dead children and mocking their deaths and things of that nature.
Do you have any links to stories about anti-war tweets getting people arrested?
Why on Earth should I click on an article that is THAT poorly written? Is it translated from a foreign language or something?
When you see legit stories of people going to back alley cosmetic surgeries to get a mixture of cement, mineral oil and flat-tyre sealant injected into their butt...someone having a 3rd boob fitted isn't completely unbelievable. Search for Oneal Ron Morris to find the above story.
No matter what is said in the article or by the first commenter, sometimes the truth is stranger than fiction.
