They don't even use their own pix - they get them from a cute kids pix website! The ads that really frost me, are those that are longer than the video that follows, and don't have "Skip Ad" links.

6. File share sites with "free downloads" that force you to do sketchy surveys and offers.
(you also get bonus spam and malware for free too)

My favorite part about that one is the apparently non-functional "Do not remind me later" button.

Talking of which, had to get up a bit earlier than usual this morning so set my alarm for 0640.
Hit snooze twice and got up at 0700.
Had shower, woke my daughter up, went downstairs.
Kitchen clock said 0615. Work phone said 0615.
Went back upstairs, retrieved my phone, it said 0715.
5 minutes later it returned to the proper time and then at 0640 the bloody alarm went off again.
Last week it spent a good part of the day claiming it was early in the morning of 2nd January 1970. Think I may need to rethink what I use for an alarm in the mornings.

Sounds like your phone went back to the future. Or something like that.

Nice "feature"
Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.

Its not supposed to roll over till 2038. You're not slumming back here in 2013, are you?
We can program with only 1's, but if all you've got are zeros, you've got nothing.

That's how I found out that I'm actually a machine. Life is pretty cool now, it's like I'm living in a Philip K. Dick novel.

Those are definitely the worst. It is so automated that only a machine can decipher it... So much for a Turing test.

Why not equip the "Supporters", "Protectors" avatars of CP with a NUKE button?
At least to credible people like Nish / Pete O Hanlon, we have a long good list I know.
Nuke must destroy the Troll and anything around it about 10 miles perimeter. The IP must be blocked for few hours. And if the Troll sneaks in through another IP, we can handle it. We have so many CP spartans. It's just a matter of few seconds for each, but a whole spoilt day for the troll. Kill Kill Kill (Chorus)

We got the guy's IP address which we used to run a trace to his home.
An official CP response to the spam should show up in his bedroom at about 3:00 AM Thursday morning.
Now if you'll excuse me, I have to catch a flight...

So Chris has made an offer the troll couldn't refuse?
Don't forget the gloves.
