With great difficulty.

Not to worry, after a few weeks they stop talking and close their blinds instead.

I don't think that'd be a drinking game so much as an effective method of causing acute liver failure.

Maybe he's a LARPer who saw its reflection in his shield.

I've taken the liberty of making the correction on your behalf.

Survival based on traits that were randomly mutated is adaptation.

Or rather, adaptation is "a change by which an organism or species becomes better suited to its environment"; the reason doesn't matter.

The downside is that CNet is deliberately preying on users' ignorance and installing software they don't want as well.

I fully believe users should take responsibility for what they install on their systems by at least looking at what they're installing but that doesn't preclude companies from leaving that crap out in the first place.

The theory is that acquaintance X would answer everyone faster than acquaintance Y, not just you. Basically, regardless of how fast someone responds on average they're still going to have some people they respond to sooner and some they respond to later.

I DMed for a while and really enjoyed the "me versus everyone else" aspect of it. It was a constant cat and mouse game of me trying to keep a band of yahoos on track and them doing everything in their power to derail every part of my campaign. Some stuff the players did was just inspired (all but one person jumping into a bag of holding so the last person could carry them across a rickety bridge) and some was just plain stupid (casting fireball while trapped in a giant spider's web. It torched half the party...) but never knowing what was going to happen next was what made it so fun.

ASCII porn certainly isn't what it used to be.

You pretty much just chew on it until you've managed to get all the honey out then spit out the blob of wax.

They'd probably just make you put it in your checked luggage. Problem solved!

It's only foolish if you buy something without considering whether it it has value to you. Even if I had a quarter of a million burning a hole in my pocket it would still be foolish for me to buy such a watch because it doesn't have the features I want. It would be just as foolish for me to spend ten dollars on a Justin Bieber CD because that doesn't have any value to me either.

We're whalers on the Moon, we carry a harpoon. But there ain't no whales so we tell tall tales and sing our whaling tune.

There's one thing about that watch that really bothers me: it's only water resistant to 25M (~82ft). If you're going to try selling me a watch that costs more than I make in a year I'd better be able to drop that fucking thing in a volcano before it breaks.
