    Holocaust jokes acceptable?

    Thread Examples of the "humor" in the thread. Mockery of genocide and deaths of millions based on their religion, race, moral beliefs, cultures and any number of other "undesirable" traits is just revolting, in my opinion.

    My laptop just farted on me.

    Browsing ATOT and someone signed off of gaim. It does a little tooter off a noise. The speaker was on my thigh near the goodies and I *felt* it. My first reaction? "WTF it just farted on me??!?!?"

    A weeks worth of pointlessness...pics included

    So yesterday, a lady walked into work trailing her poop behind her on the sidewalk (she had corn the night before, btw) up into the store, found the womens room locked, inquired about it, continued to dribble poo everywhere, patiently waited her turn, smeared some on the seat, and then left...

    Chaintech GeForce 6600 $145 + $5 shipping at Newegg

    Linky Seems pretty good combination of price, memory (and bandwidth) and AGP. EDIT: As the thread shows, it is unknown if this is a 64 or 128-bit part. Picture of the box at Newegg shows both, the description does state 128 though. Just a warning. Manufacturer's website is rather useless.

    My Computer acting silly...

    How to select a different soundcard?

    Newegg and Fedex really rule.

    And the shipping was FREE! Got the NEC DVD-RW ND-3520A for $59.99 with free shipping. Received EXACTLY 64 hours later. That is actually somewhat incredible to me, and is one reason why I will keep shopping at Newegg. Other reasons: 4 emails for the order process keeping me updated, the...

    So are there any good books that the people here would recommend on webdesign? Hopefully including CSS (Cascading Style Sheets--not CS:S) information.

    Sucky for livejournal

    Quoted: Our data center (Internap) lost all its power, including redundant backup power. We're currently dealing with bringing our 100+ servers back online. Not fun. We're not happy about this. Sorry... :-/ More details later. Oh, EDIT: [Nelson laugh] HAAA-HAAAAAAAAA [/Nelson laugh]

    Detroit Lions

    This is ridiculous. I don't think I'll watch any more of their games this year. They were up 13-0. Lost 16-13. Packers didn't take the lead until 2 seconds left in the game. This after the Minnesota game they choked on a few weeks ago.
