Yeah, he could've at least tried to hide as many things in his jacket as this kid does into his baggy levies -

How the hell did this make the front page?

We gotta find out how to get more meaningless crap like this to make the front page, and work out how we can do that for PROFIT!

Then my evil plan will be complete!

BUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Lotus Notes?!!!?! ... Your post almost seemed coherent, but then you ended it with ... LOTUS NOTES!?!!

Speaking of pretending we are still living in the 90's... why don't you plug that first-rate, extendible, user-friendly email software into your brand new Novel network, and ask to be paid more money than your boss!

While you're programming in Notes, why don't you brush up on your COBOL skills to make sure you're employable well into the future!

I did this for my wedding, everyone loved it.

I must warn you though, it's not easy and you will be bloody sick of it by the time you've made 80 of them.

You sir, made my day.

I bet the GP poster is fat and ugly and stinks like shit. He probably has delusions of adequacy though.

In the infamous scene at Flexicorp in 1986?

I guess the Trek databases didn't teach him the difference between an iPhone 4S and a Macintosh Classic...

"I've been a nerd since I was 13 and I want a uni degree but I won't want to have to learn about stuff that doesn't relate to my narrow field of interest"

University isn't about giving you skills to be a better computer programmer. The gen-ed courses are the most important - they force you to learn about how the rest of the world works, and how nobody in the real world gives a rats arse about the differences between .NET and perl.

If you want to be a computer programmer for the rest of your life, why are you going to uni in the first place? Just go and hit the job market until you find someone who will employ you on your programming skills.

Look on the bright side - Those annoying gen-ed classes (especially the ones in the art faculty) are likely to have some girls in `em. And as any uni-grad will tell you - THAT is what university is really about.

Even back in the days of kingdoms the rich tycoons didn't pay taxes.

Taxes are a way for the king (now government) to get income back from the individuals in the kingdom who don't naturally contribute (on balance) to the kingdom.

The likes of Microsoft, Google, Warren Buffett and Donald Trump don't have to pay taxes and shouldn't pay taxes because their contribution to society is giving others thousands of others jobs - and those thousands of others pay taxes - in essence they don't have to pay tax themselves because they have _CREATED_ wealth for the kingdom.

Company taxes are immoral and sneaky, because it is a double tax - shareholders and employees pay taxes when they selfishly earn income that they have a tendency to not share with others (by saving).

The moral to the story is stop bitching about the fact that you are paying taxes, and do something for society and try to become one of the people who employs thousands of others - and thus deserves the right not to pay taxes, rather than sitting on a wage, saving every penny you can, and bitching that the government is forcibly taking 30% of that to pay for services that you have otherwise done nothing to fund.

These loopholes are just a modern day incarnation of what used to be a gentlemen's agreement with the king.

> Why bother with a constitution if there is no way to enforce it?

ooohhh, I know the answer to this one!

Without an unenforceable constitution we wouldn't have the European Union we have today!
