  1. mmmmm...... caaaaaake. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  2. Yeah, and that's what's really stupid about this whole escalation. Don't call me a tree-huggin' hippy or anything, but do that many people really need to die (on both sides) because we *think* he *might* have WMD and *might* use them? So, if that's really our intent - to rid the world of Saddam Hussien (don't get me started on how irritating it is for everyone to be calling him Saddam) - you're saying the lives of a few hundred special forces are worth more than 10,000 civies in Iraq, and a couple thousand proud young Americans? I won't even count the Iraqi soldiers, we'll just pretend they're worthless. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  3. Yep...get the hell out of the region. If we're ignoring oil and all that other bs, what do we need to be there for? Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Why do we need to be there? We're there because we're afraid he's going to make chem/bio attacks on the US? He wants to make attacks on the US because we're there! So leave! What we're doing now is just giving him a reason - 'look at the western pigs! They destroy our country, we are merely fighting back!' So leave. He has no reason. It would be stupid of him to do anything then, because he has no reason! If he just up and attacked the US for no good reason, I'm pretty sure the wrath of half the world would come down on him - not to mention having a "war" that the US people would have no problem getting behind. Hell, his own people might even say "Why the hell did he do that?!" And no one would question us parking a couple aircraft carriers nearby and beating the shit out of him. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  4. Something like this? it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  5. I really really hope Bush is just trying to intimidate. It's stupid. He can't really be serious about putting ground troops in there. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  6. Here's a hint - it really helps if you can determine in the first two measurements, if the defective one is lighter or heavier. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  7. If I remember right, and this was a long time ago I went through it, the cool part about the problem is that the diameter of the hole isn't important. If you had a speher that was, let's say 2.5 inches in diamter, the diameter of the hole isn't going to be that big, and you haven't drilled that much out. Now, if you have something a basketball, the diameter of the hole you drilled is going to have to be huge to make the length of it only 2 inches - you've taken a huge chunk out, and what's left will be the same as the spehere of 2.5 inches, speaking in volumes. edit: you can use what I just told you to figure out an answer. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  8. You mean 131221? Kris You left out a 1 I bought my boss that t-shirt
  9. you got it!! nicely done. The funny thing, even with you adding that line, most people out there still won't be able to give you the next line it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  10. I went through this one before, it's harder than that because the radius of the sphere isn't 1, it's slightly more than that. If you drilled through a flat surface, that'd be correct, but you have a cylinder with a length of 2 that is missing, as well as the two caps on each end, or partial spheres. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  11. jesus christ that is mean... hang on, let me PM you my answer, see if anyone else can figure it out.... edit: nevermind, foudn a case where it doesn't work. edit #2: I think I have it now! I'll send you the revised solution it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  12. Didn't we do this one on here before? For the light switch one - flip any two switches, wait awhile, flip one of the switches back off, go in the room. The bulb that's warm is the one you flipped off, the one that's on is the sitch you left on, the one that's off and cold goes to the switch you didn't touch. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  13. You've got the U2 one right. Still don't have the next one right. And yes, I have it written correctly. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  14. Yeah, I'm a brain teaser junkie. Here's another one - I'd say a good 75% of the people I've shown it to, don't figure it out without some kind of help. 1 11 21 1211 111221 What's the next line? it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  15. Speaking of interview questions - this is supposedly one Microsoft has been known to ask: "U2" has a concert that starts in 17 minutes and they must all cross a bridge to get there. All four men begin on the same side of the bridge. You must help them across to the other side. It is night. There is one flashlight. A maximum of two people can cross at one time. Any party who crosses, either 1 or 2 people, must have the flashlight with them. The flashlight must be walked back and forth, it cannot be thrown, etc. Each band member walks at a different speed. A pair must walk together at the rate of the slower man's pace: Bono:- 1 minute to cross Edge:- 2 minutes to cross Adam:- 5 minutes to cross Larry:-10 minutes to cross it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  16. Because man-holes are round. Why would you put a square cover on a round hole? Actually, that is a common interview question, and there's a lot of right answers. It's more to see how you think than anything. Possible answers I've heard: So it doesn't fall through (and probably the most correct) Because the holes are round (easier to make circle than a square/more efficient use of space and material/whatever) So you can handle the cover better - roll it to move it if you have to Less possibility of snaging something (corners of a square could pinch something) Couple others that I can't think of at the moment... it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  17. I found a card key outside a hotel once... just tried it in the nearby doors - you'd never guess what I found! I guess you could call that a date... hmmm... well, at any rate, it was a lot of fun! it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  18. Yep, you're this weeks loser. Buh-bye. The tribe has spoken. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  19. You should come over - I've got the electronic dart board up in there now. As if packing and gear storage wasn't enough "useful" use of that room, now you can drink and play darts in there too! Don't worry, you throw away from the gear, and they're plastic darts. You'd have to be really really hammered to do any damage. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  20. I built a rack and shelf on the wall in the dining room. It hangs there, or sits on the floor under there, or if I just packed it, sits in the middle of the floor. Like we actually use our dining room anyway... it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  21. Me too! Let's say, 5:30 Bytch time. I'm in the terrible twos of my jumping career. No wonder I'm so bad at it. It's 8:30 bytch time - where is everyone?!?! it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality

    Gross Pic

    That is disgusting, and has been around awhile. This is the first I've seen it called a motorcycle accident - usually people say it's a botched suicide. I'd say that, or the guy held an M80 in his mouth for giggles. It sure looks real if it's a photoshop job - but how the hell is he breathing? I'm really not sure how that's a motorcycle accident - how could you do that damage off a bike, but everything else looks fairly normal. Although I will agree with you, always wear a helmet on a bike. My head went sliding across someone's front yard at ~40mph one time - I came away with only a slight limp for a few days thanks to the protective gear I was wearing. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  24. I vote we all show up in the pub and let the bytch get mushy! it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  25. Where do you live? I have no idea about the hookers, but I haven't gotten a motel for $20.
