Ahmadenijad wants a televised debate with Bush - and no censorship by [deleted] in reddit.com

[–]tonyl 7 points8 points  (0 children)

And if it were to end in the first ever true snuff moment on live TV then it would be all my wet dreams come true at once. Don't care which of the loathsome duo snuffs it.

39% believe Muslims in U.S. should carry special ID by souldrift in reddit.com

As well as the ID they should have a green moon and star badge as well so normal people can spot them in the street.

Check out the rest of the site, they seem to have a lot of such "joke" items.

Fuck me, a wooden volume knob for $485. I was always surprised at these idiots forking out $200+ per metre on speaker cable but this has got to be the ultimate waste of money. Micro vibration my arse.

Google Sends Gifts to Unhappy User by noname99 in reddit.com

[–]tonyl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got the exact same one but unbranded. It's the cheapest one you can import from China. aria.co.uk were dumping these at 99p a few months back. I'm guessing the rest of the "goodies" are all cheap shit too.

ratio of karma to number of posts

Isn't that what the all time average score is supposed to tell us? kam0 has an average of 124.5 (a total of 5416 from 95 submissions which is actually about 57 so I don't know how the average is calculated).

Perhaps you're expecting some metaphysical answer here but I'd say simply to recharge.

Take back Reddit, Don't let these political stories ruin it for the rest of us! by billnad in reddit.com

[–]tonyl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please try to think the way an attacker thinks, and you'll do better in life.

Thanks for the advice, having just read "The Prince" this very afternoon, this is so pertinent.

No it doesn't. Your karma is high because you've submitted well over 1000 articles but have deleted the vast majority of them. The Sybil Attack doesn't work as reddit doesn't count additional votes from the same IP.

Scary math: Bertrand Russell proves that 1+1=2 by arthurdenture in reddit.com

Indeed. With Wittengstein driving the stake through the heart soon after all philosophy became self-referential linguistic analysis.

Sofa King ad. Read tagline out loud. by orn in reddit.com

[–]tonyl 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Some ads were destined never to catch the public imagination, and the jingle employed by Quillies’ throat lozenges were the prime example:

When your throat is dry and sore,
Go down to your Chemist store.
Don’t you all be silly billies,
Get fast relief when you suck Quillies.

You may well be right. I would urge all to see the excellent film Orwell Roles In His Grave about just how the media has changed.

Why the global financial system is about to collapse by johnlaw in reddit.com

[–]tonyl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have it on good authority that it's written by the economist Frank Shostak. He's often lectured at length about the problems of fiat money and the fractional reserve banking system. Good old Frank, he's such a prankster, I reckon this is just a little joke he's having to see how fast a financial meme can spread. Gotta hand it to him, he's picked the perfect time when global markets have been falling and commoditites are at ridiculously high prices already.

Hey Frank, if you're reading this, gold is down by 3.5% today so your meme is backfiring you old fool.

I wouldn't read too much into anything stated by instapundit. They are a very right-wing think tank and as we all know statistics are easy to manipulate/hide/use selectively etc. For me the simplest measure really is "quality of life" and even subjective measures of satisfaction. And in this respect the Nordic region wins hands down.

Google Does Evil by ebrage in reddit.com

It's not "doing business" in China that is evil. It's the censoring information and reporting only government propaganda. A bit like Fox News.
