I was going to say, "you're confusing it with Galaxy Quest," but then I clicked your link and it pretty much ruined my joke.

The US Government protected all of its military members from the evil past tense flying pigs!!
In other words, I'm safe.
I am pretty sure that if there were tech support for Ubuntu, you would hear the same sorts of things.
If I had mod points, I'd be at a toss-up whether to mod you funny or insightful. But I don't so I'll just say that I find this to be both funny and insightful.
Bill Gates must be God?
We are witnessing the birth of a new dogma: the Holy Quaternity.
You're late to the party, Bro.
Catholics have been doing that with Mary for centuries now.
Top-down shooter. Pretty fun and challenging too.
So al-Qaeda won't sue for trademark infringement?
Nope. The name al-Qaeda is licensed under Creative Commons.
...if the reason Apple wants to patent this is to sit it on the shelf with the threat of a lawsuit to anyone who cripples cell phones in the future? Think about it: Apple can cripple phones because only they can.
As a result, Verizon, AT&T, et al. all now have to have their phones open and able to allow the consumer to do absolutely anything and everything they could ever want to do with their phones. Now, would Apple continue to have the only restricted phone on the market? I doubt it. They'd lose too much money competing against all the unlocked phones they created.
Hurry up and do it, Apple. I want a new browser on my LG env2.
Coca Cola has different flavors around the world, often due to the preferences of the local consumers. If you imported Coke from somewhere else and resold it, and it wasn't clear to the consumer what exactly they were buying, they could very well think Coke wronged them when their drink tastes a little off.
Coca Cola tastes different everywhere else in the world but America because we use High Fructose Corn Syrup instead of pure cane sugar. The taste difference between the two is so much better when real sugar is used, but this is America where capitalism rules and the bottom line is most important. The bottom line is the following: HFCS is much cheaper to create and use than cane sugar.
If you get the chance to try a sugar-based soda and its HFCS equivalent, you'll be in awe of the difference. Taste for profit. I'd rather pay a few cents more for real sugar over HFCS.
This is one of those things where I would say, "that's pretty cool you made it, but why?"
I think using the web site and seeing the trends over in the right column is good enough for probably 99.8% of Twitter users. Even the geeks like us.
I like this one better:
There as 1 girl.
She was 16.
She did a 69.
3 times.
Know what she was?
11669*3=35007
Anyone know where I can rent a donkey costume?
Kinky Kelly? Is that you?
Taco bell? In some parts of the country, there is a place called White Castles. And let me tell you, they don't call them slyders for nothing.
I make it a general rule to avoid eating something that smells the same going in as it does going out.
Would you be happier if they were using the term oligopoly? Then you could chuck Apple in with MS and it would be blazingly accurate.
Like many of us, I'm sure, I'm not even sure why it even had to be an issue in the first place.
