sure, i'll meet you at starbucks in.... about ten minutes?
Euh... It will take more than 10 minutes to convince the US Custom agent to let me enter US.
So you have priors?
nah, they're just so understaffed that the line's longer than ten minutes.
I had to change brothels for the exact same reason.

QFT. Last time I flew back into the US, it took about an hour of standing in line just to reach the point where I could spend about 1 minute going through customs.

Underoos, skirts, tutus, shorts, and bikini bottoms are all acceptable items that obey the letter of the "no pants" rule, if not the spirit.
"Shorts" were originally referred to as "short pants," but English speakers (especially Americans) are lazy and dropped the "pants" part. You might want to rethink whether or not that particular article of clothing really obeys the letter of your rule or not β¦
But hey, it is your rule, so whatever.

"No Pants" doesn't mean "naked below the waist" it just means "No Pants"

Audiophiles are people with lots of money who listen to music with their eyes.

Only if you're not from one of those places like Warrington that calls them pants.

As a woman, you are encouraged to go commando anytime you wish.

Sorry. trousers are a sub category of pants. OFF WITH THEM!

Correction noted.
Shorts are out, but Kilts, which were previously filed under the category of "skirt" are now in as their own separate category.

@accalia What about the skort?

Skorts should only be worn by young children who are still learning how to sit properly in a skirt.

Answer unclear, ask again later.

Up with war, down with skirts!

I worked that one out the first time I wore one: knees together. Less of an issue with a circle, but necessary with a skater, which is the cut I prefer.

Trust me, as a parent of 4 girls, three who are old enough to show a preference toward skirts, it doesn't come naturally to young children.

It's times like these I don't envy people who have children :P

There are days that we don't envy ourselves either.

How about a $40 phone charger that stops charging when your device is full?
I could actually see a use for a charger which only charges when your device is below an arbitrary percentage (say, 80%) and then only charges up to an arbitrary percentage (e.g. 90%). This does prolong battery life because the last 10% are the most "damaging".

@anonymous234 that marketing team needs to die a particularly horrible death.

@anonymous234 what is up with that growing pillar of rectangular white shit that was in the video? Toward the end they broke something out of it, but we cannot see what it is.

How can you add all the functionality found in Android to your dumbed-down iPhone ?
Add an Android phone to it. Genius !!!

@TimeBandit I wonder if they make an additional case to protect the case?

No, no, no. There is a limit to how dumb they are willing to go

Now you are just being ridiculous. No one uses Windows Phone.

Blackberry OS.

Also, when did this shit start?
It's been doing that a while now. Something to do with the browser and the server having not quite matching times.

Fuck knows. Apparently using server time for both 'now' and 'post time' is difficult.

@Polygeekery said in Dumb things being crowdfunded.:

not more than a minute from now, that's for sure

Blackberry OS.
The case hierarchy goes iOS -> Android -> Windows Phone -> Blackberry OS -> Tizen -> MeeGo -> Symbian -> Windows Mobile 6 -> PalmOS -> Newton OS -> Psion Series 3 -> LG webOS

@TimeBandit You must be one of those Ubuntu Touch/Firefox OS fans.
-
@anonymous234 You've put Windows Mobile 6 before
PalmOSNewton OSany other OS
-
@TimeBandit You have a point. But I weighed them by both popularity and quality, and it was very popular.
-
@TimeBandit Windows Mobile 6 should be higher.
-
@anonymous234 Tizen is in the middle?
-
@loopback0 On the scale of crappyness, it should be at the top
-
@dcon I mean, realistically, if you had to choose today between a Tizen phone or a Symbian/Windows Mobile 6 phone, you'd pick the Tizen one.
