  If you pay me $50,000, I promise I can clone your dog. No guarantee on how old it'll be when I get it to you though. Isn't that a great rate?...
• Commented on Beautiful transparent sea-cucumber from the ocean depths
  What a beautiful animal. This is why I find it absurd that we spend more money on NASA than on ocean exploration. We want to know if there's life in space but there's definitely life down there! We got excited...
• Commented on Augmented reality rig that turns you into a character in a third-person game
  "The system potentially allows for a diminished sense of social responsibility, and could lead the user to demonstrate behaviors normally reserved for the gaming environment." Goddamn team killers......
• Commented on Demi claims missing hipflesh is for real. But $5,000 says it's Moore photoshopping.
  I agree with #2. When the story first broke it was just a little more evidence for something everyone already knew. It should have ended with that. This is absolutely meaningless and insignificant....
• Commented on Taste Test: natto, gooey fermented soy beans
  Of course natto reduces disease. You put that stuff in your body and everything else is going to get as far away from it as possible. :D...

  I have a spray-on paleness....
• Commented on Plaices of Death
  I don't think there's any justification for eating a live fish in this situation and I agree with you, that this is cruelty. I will ask however, is it really evil? Is it evil when a bear catches a jumping...
• Commented on People speak out on library censorship incident: “It’s dangerous to democracy when an interest group imposes its views on another.”
  No one ever defends pornography. They argue that their art is not pornography without questioning the assertion that pornography is intrinsically bad....

  Kind of like a panda bear. So cute and cuddly. Except also HOLY CRAP IT'S A BEAR....
• Commented on Jacques Vallee: Waterboarding's curious corollaries

  Pirate gals know a thing or two about barnacles....
• Commented on Conservative children's book vilifies Nancy Pelosi
  Got to get them early, before they realize that not everything you tell them is the indisputable truth. Hate conservative children's books. Hate liberal ones too. Hate all indoctrination. It's morally wrong to twist a child's mind like that....
• Commented on Goldwag: The Sarah Palin Conspiracies
  Of all the reasons to dislike Palin, just who bore what child is absolutely the least important. I don't care if she had another kid or if she was covering for her daughter. That's her own business. What I care...
• Commented on The Edge Case: Indies Rally To Raise Copyfight Awareness
  As much as I like Spelunky, I've heard Yu is in talks wih Microsoft to make an XBLA version. I know he'd have to be stupid to throw that back in their face but MS is one of the vanguards...
• Commented on Woman accidentally buys wrapping paper covered with swastikas
  That's the thing about symbolism. Its meaning is what it means to people. You can talk about what it "really" means all you like; it doesn't mean that anymore, for Westerners....

  I used to have spectacular hair. Now at age 27, it's thinning like crazy. :(...

  If they blessed the stuff how can it carry disease, which is supposedly caused by sin?...
• Commented on An evening of confusion with Dell customer service
  If you think this was a waste of space, it helps to remember that the internet is effectively infinite and there are much stupider things on it....
• Commented on Goldwag: I Was A Teenaged Straussian
  I agree that it is a really big stretch to say people attacked the neo-cons because so many of them were Jewish, particularly since they also attacked the ones that weren't Jewish, and didn't attack Jewish politicians that weren't neo-cons....
• Commented on School sells test scores to students
  That's an important lesson to learn, which is why I don't believe this is what they're actually doing. All federally funded schools are prohibited by law from teaching children important lessons....

  Ooh, a piece of candy. Ooh, a piece of candy. Ooh, a piece of candy....
• Commented on New antitrust suit against Intel, this time from NY State AG Cuomo
  I'm not sure about this. AMD used to be a strong competitor and in some ways still is, but they really allowed Intel to take over. It's not reasonable to ask Intel to step back and yield part of the...
