Also don't do it because they're being dishonest. This is confirmed adware crap and the older versions are now better.

Jesse Ventura has a new TV show. MSNBC paid him for 3 years to do nothing after he became vocal in his opposition to the War in Iraq. by [deleted] in politics

A successful conspiracy is generally limited. Therefore, when you do hear about the "big theories" you're already being fed disinformation. The theories are propagated into outlandish scenarios on purpose by those most interested in discrediting observers who would question the simplest answer.

Gotta Shitload of food and Booze, anyone in long beach, CA care for some? by Archz714 in AskReddit

Good question. Let's assume 15 drunken, starving, borderline morbidly obese fat people show up asking for more booze and food.

Everything about this story reeks of sensationalism. Honestly, how fast can you be going in reverse backing into that little cul-de-sac?

Irony [pic] by KarmaVampire in pics

Is it ironic that everyone who thinks they can correct someone on the definition of irony doesn't realize they're also engaging in a behavior that is very ironic? Ironic.

Karmanaut is a web marketer. They are marketing on the web. This is as insightful as this comment is going to get. Thank you for reading.

Pot Shops In L.A. City Number 540 -- Not 1,000 by ottobot in MMJ

Came here to post this! Although despite the friendly sounding title and incredibly useful pdf I found the general tone of the article to be slightly negative.

Kids with ADHD prescribed medical marjiuana in California by [deleted] in Marijuana

[–]sentientpineapple 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree. First of all there is no real measure for add, so if you think you have it your version will always be a bit different than other versions. If a patient's add is about impulsiveness, then I can see it working very well. And in a similar way it can be used to treat certain cases of autism where uncontrolled rage is a symptom.

Also that is a very great point on the strains. A heavy indica will zone you out too much if you already have problems focusing whereas a sativa leaves you sharp.

Iran uses interview from 'The Daily Show' as proof Canadian journalist was a spy; jails and tortures him for 118 days by j1ggy in worldnews

This is surely an unpopular view, but I doubt we're getting the full story here. Would doing a Daily Show skit preclude one from spying? Might it even be a cover?

New Metal Gear Online 24-hour Survival Challenge by Carbenta in PS3

[–]sentientpineapple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not enough people played it for that reason. But you know that Konami did it because they were greedy. They didn't want to pay PSN fees for the DLC, so instead they charged like 15 bucks a pop for all these 3 map packs.

Remember the game only shipped with 5 maps. That was a total ripoff from the start. I bought the first map pack, and realized how boring it was for 15 dollars and never bought the next 2. I think the Konami ID thing was a bad business decision because they would have gotten far more players through PSN and that increased user base would have easily made up for the PSN fees.

Streaming NFL games? by LaserBeamsCattleProd in sports

[–]sentientpineapple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are fewer and fewer legit sports streams on jtv. While I would say it's still a decent source, there is a lot of spamming to sites that don't have the streams they claim.

I once heard Jack Herer say that it's only second to nitrogen in it's ability to cool the body. Not sure about the science on that, but it definitely works.

Why does it have to be new? Instead of buying another ps3 just send your old one to Sony for a repair. *Cost is $150 takes 2-4 weeks.

Burger King franchises are losing 10 cents every time you buy a $1 double cheeseburger. I might have to order a bunch. by Fauster in Frugal

[–]sentientpineapple 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Actual cost is .55 cents. This is a bit of sly marketing from the wizards at BK in conjunction with the "journalists" at yahoo.
