From Urban Dictionary: 2. SCOTUS SCOTUS (n) A highly sensitive patch of skin between the legs running from the genitalia to the anus. Yo bitch! Lick my scotus.

The red ring of death, the Zune, and now the Surface. Microsoft can't make hardware. Considering Windows Vista, Windows 8 and the ribbon in Office, they aren't very good at software either.

"Stark Trek Luminaries?" was my first thought. Best I can tell, Marc Zicree only wrote two treatments (a detailed outline) for all of Trek. One episode for TNG, and one (bad) one for DS9. He didn't write the script for either. That means he was a freelancer, not a staff writer, and the writing staff didn't like his treatments enough to let him write the scripts. He only has one credit for Babylon 5 and his five credits for Sliders came at the end of the show, when it was garbage.

I wouldn't bet on much quality coming out of this "legendary sci-fi writer". That's a joke. Did Marc Zicree send this in himself or something?

Doug Drexler's resume is hardly legendary either.

Marvel Comics has been Mickey Moused!

"Common sense" is a big misnomer. Sense has never been common. Most people have none, and did even before gadgets.

Mac users swear by their computers. PC users swear at their computers.

If she doesn't get this done really quickly, Mattel will make a Caribou Barbie doll before she gets a chance to stop them.

If the scammer uses the right approach, anyone can be conned. The ones who think they are too smart are usually easy marks.

Most YouTube videos are 360P at 330 Kbps, topping out at 720P at 2.25 Mbps. But I hear 720P is very rare. (Source)

That project in Alaska burned me up. $5.2 million to bring broadband to 60 people when my county's application only wanted about $4.1 million to bring broadband to *40,000* people. What's wrong with that picture?

I hope you don't take this the wrong way, but I hope it doesn't. I'll be extremely upset if it does. This money isn't for you. You've got broadband, I don't. Nobody around here does. No 2Mbps DSL, no 30Mbps cable, no wireless, not anything.

This money is supposed to go to underserved and unserved areas, not make your existing connection faster. If you want a faster connection, complain to your provider. I don't even have that luxury because there are no providers here.

What part of that don't people get? Why would it ever be acceptable to spend millions of dollars cranking up the speed of an existing connection "just a faster connection for day to day stuff" when there are millions of people that don't have anything at all?

To hell with that. I'm sorry your DSL isn't as fast as you want, but least you've got it.

I think a clown suit would be better. He looks like Zippy The Pinhead.

Domino Sugar sued Domino's Pizza for trademark infringement. For a while, they changed their name to Pizza Dispatch. The courts eventually ruled that the products were so dissimilar that no confusion in the marketplace was likely to occur, therefore no infringement. A vaguely similar phrase describing a fictional product would probably be considered non-infringing as well, but think geek does not have the kind of money to defend itself like Domino's did. It is a shame that frivolous cease and desist letters and lawsuits aren't a criminal offense.
