"The maguro bōchō is a longer knife with a blade length of 40 cm (16 inches) to 150 cm (60 inches) in addition to a long handle. It can fillet a tuna in a single cut, although usually two people are needed to handle the knife and the tuna." - Gabe

The problem with solving world hunger is that the people who are no longer hungry will start reproducing until there are too many people to feed again.
Education lowers birth rates IIRC. Could that break the cycle? Also, isn't most starvation due to political problem, not agricultural? - Bruce Lewis

A 14-year-old runaway was picked up by police and gave a fake name and age. Somehow she picked the name of a 22-year-old illegal immigrant, and even though she's black and speaks no Spanish, ICE deported her to Colombia! - Gabe
As far as I know she hasn't been to Columbia, because she's been stuck in Colombia since April. - Gabe
When did Google decide to turn to shit? They may not be evil, but who cares about evil if they suck?
I'm looking at you, Gmail! - Gabe
The problem isn't that they make new interfaces every so often, it's that they don't let you stay with the old one, and the new one sucks. In this case, uses a lot more CPU (even when not doing anything) and memory, is harder to use (lower contrast, meaningless icons), and yet it appears to have no additional features. Gmail has been around for nearly 8 years and it still doesn't have real folders or the ability to sort? WTF kind of a mail reader doesn't let you sort messages? - Gabe
Gay community apologizes to Amy Koch for ruining her marriage - http://blogs.citypages.com/blotter...
"Forgive us. As you know, we are not church-going people, so we are unable to fully appreciate that "gay marriage" is incompatible with Christian values, despite the fact that those values carry a biblical tradition of adultery such as yours. We applaud you for keeping that tradition going." - Gabe
Minesota's Republican Senate Majority leader Amu Koch shows that male Republicans have no monopoly on swarmy sexual liasons with an employee. Everybody in Minnesota Republican establishment feeling good about Amy, she was fucking a guy after all Family values #ftw - WarLord

There's an infomercial on TV that showed "888 ???-????" as the phone number for the first 10 minutes. It didn't switch to a real phone number until after the guy said "Phones are ringing off the hook!".
Is it wrong to refer to my baby's crib as a "hoosegow"?

What could POSSIBLY make my cable box take nearly 10 MINUTES to boot up?
Further investigation has revealed that being a piece of shit is what makes it take so long. - Gabe
Makes sense. - Paul Buchheit
if you kick it, will it boot faster? - imabonehead
i don't have direct experience of cable tv boxes, but i have some of sat tv boxes. mine (sky italia) takes a lot of time (not 10 minutes, but anyway minutes) to apparently boot after a power failure or if it had been unplugged. if i just turn it off from the remote, then on, it's pretty fast. i imagine that since the box is supposed to be always on (e.g. to receive updates OTA) the boot time didn't mattered much. anyway, when we had two provider of pay tv in italy we could buy our own boxes, and we could get nice hardware (i had a nokia sat tv box), now we have just one provider (sky) with 'free', subsidized boxes, and these are authentic pieces of shit - Alb.

Do our children really love us, or are they just exhibiting Stockholm Syndrome? - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki...
I think it's a little bit of both... - April Buchheit
Yes, Gabe, I think that's what Tudor is saying. And I think I agree. They've captivated us with their cuteness so by the time they're surly adolescents/adults, we're sufficiently hooked. :) - April Buchheit
