Nor was it specifically an Apple. All translations I've read refer to a forbidden "fruit." As usual interpretation is whatever you find useful at the time.

Really?

Reading this thread has been a pleasure. Your belligerent technophobic replies to all these rational verifiable arguments against your asinine fear of nukes is laughable. It's like watching a drooling retard punch himself in the dick because a uncircumcised homosexual South African man might get AIDS when he ass rapes a dormitory of AIDS infected male prostitutes without protection.

And trust me that analogy is bang on (pun intended). Because, like Chernobyl, there is no containment, there is a predisposition for disaster, and the at-risk party is engaging in exceedingly dangerous behavior. Which, by your logic, proves safe sex is imaginary.

Great, let's all start quoting a magazine that has been criticized for its "level of scientific illiteracy" and that had the audacity to print "Darwin was wrong" on its cover. By the way, I looked over the reports from MEXT and never found mention of "kilobecquerels," in fact all the measurements I found were in microsievert. From what I could gather most were only a few times greater than background radiation. So please kindly explain this to me or link to a comprehensible article that references reports from MEXT that I can actually verify.

If you think those numbers are significant, by all means produce them.

In Arizona the 3,875 MW Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station cost $5.9 billion. I think your numbers are off!

Yes, but Jack Bauer was too busy making his TV show and couldn't hand deliver the letter. Ask again in 24 hours.

Quick, we need to redefine the meaning of "planet" yet again.

Insensitive cod! *drum sound punctuating lame joke*

is finders, keepers...but that doesn't fly in the real world.

No, that is the model identifier and doesn't have much to do with the generation of a product. I never said it was formal designation either. It's only confusing if you make it confusing.

iPhone = 1G, iPhone 3G = 2G, iPhone 3GS = 3G, next iPhone = 4G, for values of G equal to Generation. Hint #G doesn't have to refer to the network. Apple products have traditionally been referred to by the generation scheme as in: "I have a 5th generation iPod," or " I have a 3rd generation MacBook."

Nah. It's called the DSi XL. I think that means dual screen with an 'i' as in an eye (a camera) and it is now extra large. Maybe they could change it to iDSXL or WiiDSXL or WiiLSX (Will Suck haha). Personally I already own two Lites, does that make it a QS Lite?

Haha, if you only knew...

Me: *double tap home*
Me: *touch girlfriend's name*
Girly: *slides to answer*
Girly: Hi honey.
Me: Hey babe, ever have a problem making a call with you're iPhone?
Girly: No never, why do you ask?
Me: Some guy on /. says he tried to make a call and "ooops".
Girly: What? Is he retarded? Both our Moms and your little sister -- a cheerleader I might add -- have never had a problem with their iPhones.
Me: I know right. They've asked us for help with every other device they've owned, but not once with the iPhone.
Girly: So true. How is the CS project going?
Me: So, so. I keep reading /. ...
Girly: I don't know why you waste your time with that site.
Me: Me either. How is grading going?
Girly: Well you know these intro to CS kids...
Me: ha, bet they could make phone calls on their iPhones?
Girly: Your cat can make a call on an iPhone.
Me: Alright I'd better get back to work. Bye babe.
Girly: Bye.
Me: *end call*

Yeah real fucking oops! I don't know where this nonsense comes from about the iPhone not being a usable phone. Newsflash: it's a great phone and so much more.

Sure, maybe it has some comedic value:
Comedian: Did you see the new iPhone from Apple?
Person: No.
Comedian: Well it does everything except make phone calls. Harhar.
Person: What?

Then everyone who as ever touched an iPhone just stares at the you (the comedian) wondering how you managed to get your shoes on the right feet.
