12/3    So my little sister is asking for an Xbox 360 for Christmas. I
        sked her if she meant the new Kinect controller one and she said
        no, just the regular controllers. What exactly is she asking for
        here? -not really a gaming geek anymore
        \_ She's asking for an Xbox 360. Is there anything complicated about
           that? Don't bother getting the Kinect, but ideally don't go cheapo

7/3     ARG 0 - 4 GER!  That's a huge spread.  What was wrong with Argentina?
        \_ You give a damn about soccer?  What's wrong with you?
           \_ Giving a damn about the World Cup != giving a damn about soccer.
              This has been an exciting, topsy-turvy tournament. Maradona must
              be tearing his (incredibly absurdly dyed) hair out.
        \- re: "what is wrong with ARG" ... against a good team you need

6/9     Synchronized Macarana-esque dance after first 2010 World Cup goal.

        Oh no, the same disease that has plagued football here at home is now
        spreading to soccer abroad.
        \- You may be too young to remember ROGER MILLA and the DANCE OF THE
           CORNER. Did you see BISHOP D.TUTU dancing? That was pretty funny.

1/25    Seymour Cray's UCB Lecture on the Cray-1:
        http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vtOA1vuoDgQ
        \_ this is VERY BORING. Why should we care? UCB is dead.

1/26    Wozniak says the the Steve Jobs movie clip is historically inaccurate,
        that Jobs was not so much a visionaire that Jobs claimed to be, as Jobs
        was just looking to make a few quick bucks. Why should we trust
        Woz's words over Jobs'?
        \_ Seriously? Read both the Steve Jobs biography and Woz's autobiography.
           Nobody contests that Jobs was a scumbag. Also: the lounge in Soda Hall.

1/3     I declare LG LED is amazing. I switched.
             -long time Sony owner, no longer have any faith in Sony
        \_ How does sports look on it? -Old Skool Plasma Screen Guy
           \_ I don't watch sports. Dumb people with a lot of loyalty
              watch sports. You drink beer too?
              \_ Loyalty is a good thing. Do you cheat on your g/f too?

12/6    Lesson learned: don't talk about Monty Python on a date. Women just
        don't seem to get it.
        \_ You are dating the wrong women (for you) then. My sister-in-law
           loves it and yet I don't find it all that funny. It's not a
           gender thing.
           \_ is she a nerd? does she laugh funny? is she actually decent looking?

10/17   Cloud Atlas Shrugged.
        \_ How is this movie? Did you see it?
           \_ Cloud Atlas is a movie. Atlas Shrugged is a movie.
              Cloud Atlas Shrugged is a made-up name.
              \_ How was Cloud Atlas?

8/2     Where's the closest Chick-Fil-A to San Francisco? I need to
        go there and make out with my boyfriend.        -gay
        \_ Chick-Fil-A is a place for people who want to Fil(l)-A-Chick. :-)
        \_ Why do you want to watch a bunch of fat White Trash eating
           greasy food?
