Remember ElfBowling.exe?! It was one of those .exe's that all IT people just love their users executing. Yes this was a really long time ago & we were all having fun with it until that email came that said it was a VIRUS & would CRASH YOUR HARD DRIVE on XMAS DAY! I replied, with links & even the number to the software dev that made the game. Of course they had a message right off about the hoax when you called.

Even after all the proof that the game was harmless I overheard someone warning someone else to that it was a virus. I confronted him & he said "you don't know for sure it's not a virus". My point is, the people that post, send, promote these stupid hoaxes don't care if they are true or not. They believe & that is all that matters to them.

Side note, sanity prevailed & we removed all those cool little games. They were fun while they lasted. Snowcraft.exe! I've played that one (at home) not all that long ago. We had to stop playing Quake 2 during lunch around that same time.

True. But you make it sound like centuries are a long time.

Some actually like the taste of vegetables. However, you actually make a great point here. 10,000 years ago like bears, people ate mostly grubs, edible plants/fruits (nasty compared to what we get today). We lived on that crap & when lucky we got meat/honey to fatten us up to prepare for when there was little to nothing to gather. What we lived on as staples might be good for us but what really tastes great fattens us up to survive the winter.

Could be a customer of the disgruntled kind. At least that was my first thought.

Make better movies. Yep, that's it. Imagine. Better movies. I was standing in the cold in front of a Redbox just yesterday. I've not seen a movie in months & there was still nothing that I wanted to see. Just crap movies. They even had sequels of crap movies!

Good thing there are still writers writing new good books to read. Kina makes me wonder why we still have good writers & good actors, but they can't seem to make good movies.

Would one of these cards fix my billing errors? We just changed our service to a better & cheaper plan holding the "change to another provider club" over their head. It helps a little but we still pay too much IMO. They came in with the new X1 boxes with a new DVR & gateway & all installed by a typical cable guy. Internet lasted a few hours & started failing. I figured it was a bad box, went to a center & changed it out to a non-X1 gateway & it worked. 6 days later a new tech comes & adds a amplifier so the X1 box would work. Long story longer, they charged us for the installation & service call.

After a long talk with the CS guy, they promise to fix it on the next statement. Yeah OK, yep heard that before. Fucking Comcrap! My very long history of problems with them could fill a notebook. My current alternative is Uverse.... oh god no.

The new X1 UI? Comcrap finally updated their UI that was pretty much the same since the 1980s. It's shit, nothing like intuitive, but it's an improvement. I don't know who they get to design these things but they might wanna run it by some focus groups now & then to see how usable it is.

Decades?

Trillions spent on it? And I can still go down the street & score. Why are people crossing into Colorado to score when Billy next door grows it? This really makes no sense.

Stressing their law enforcement resources my ass... Nebraska is making money on these busts, we know that. Now they want to double dip & get some of Colorado's tax windfall.

Yep, my total cost of healthcare here went up by about 40% but not as a result of the ACA. My employer's raised it but not because their costs went up my 40%. They raised it because they could. We are a Fortune 500 company & are self-insured. Their costs did not rise by anything close to 40%. OH, the HR asshole brought up the ACA, hinting around about reasons why we got such a huge increase, but when I brought up current healthcare inflation, he had no straight answer.

A fast search led me to factcheck.org where they disagree with you. Anecdotally I know of not one single case where this is true. Everyone I know got a better deal under Obamacare. Some stories are remarkable how much Obamacare helped them. This is personal experience only. But after a decade of alarming inflation of health care premiums, we are finally seeing it slow (4%).

The Affordable Care Act has it's problems. It could be fixed. But return to lifetime caps, dumping high risk clients, & no coverage for existing conditions, no thanks. & yes, we did have "skyrocketing premiums" regardless. Become a cancer survivor & your opinion will change.

What models? Computer models from the 70s? Citation please. Or did you mean the pop science in the media? It was never a real theory, it was entertainment.

Killing a rabbit likely was done with the cooperation of a few people to corner it & hitting it in the head with a rock. Plus thanks to our sweat glands humans are the only creatures that can run for hours & hours in 90+ heat. That is how you catch an antelope! & hit in the head with a rock.

Yes, if that antelope was female & had milk, we consumed it.

Depends on who you ask. Those whom get there main income from Big Pharma will say eggs are bad. Others seem to be saying they are good. Still others are saying they are bad unless the are free range organic.

I say they are good! I just had three & they tasted delicious! They just happened to be organic as my wife bought them. Personally I would balk at the price & buy the factory eggs. But that makes her unhappy so I opt for the expensive ones. Happy wife=happy me.

If a state wants to actually help their local retail businesses, then they should eliminate sales tax.

I've done the same thing to Comcast/Uverse/WideOpenWest lots of times for the last ten years. They never take me seriously until I call for the disconnect! TOO LATE! The new service is installed. Damn I am happy to have three providers!

It seems that most are missing the point here. It's not just student loans, it's GI Bill money & other grants going to waste on bullshit colleges/trade schools. The potential student is sucked in by the intense marketing (ITT Tech & be a GAME DESIGNER!!) & goes to see the sales person...(counselor) & they hard sell them on some useless program & set up all the financing for them. Just sign here...!!!! RTFA

Quite often jobs listings actually specify bachelors degree from an accredited college. Phoenix University degrees SUCK! A waste of all our money, not just student loans.
