I knew I would take a ribbing for that.

Go on - stick it to him.

Eye would, butt he might be armed

Nah - I think his defences are half-baked.

I'll wait until he's distracted eating those finger sandwiches, care to give me a hand?
|

Good idea. We should be able to nail him then.

I think his house is located on a major artery, next to that big spine tree.

In the same vein (I know I'm going out on a limb here), I have to hand it to ya - the tree would definitely give us a leg up!

It's going to take some intestinal fortitude, but as long as you have the stomach for it, I think we do this. In the meantime I'll keep my ear to the ground.

Are two heads better than one?
It was broke, so I fixed it.

Heads? I'd go for the thigh muscle, and a couple of other nice muscles.
I've heard it tastes like veal. Mild with no other sharply defined or highly characteristic taste. (source: William Seabrook)
Sounds good to me.

Yikes! What's eating you, Harold?

Nigerians, I guess. Apparently they're into that sort of thing.

Roasted human heads?
That's outrageous.
Everyone knows heads should be slow cooked in a crock pot.

It's got a big mast 
Scissors cuts paper, paper covers rock, rock crushes lizard, lizard poisons Spock, Spock smashes scissors, scissors decapitates lizard, lizard eats paper, paper disproves Spock, Spock vaporizes rock, and as it always has, rock crushes scissors.

Surely the whole point of a selfie is to hold and point the camera at yourself, not to build a robot, send it across vast reaches of space, land it on another planet and then point it back.
Besides, I think Voyager managed some more impressive snaps of home a while back.

The desktop has the 16 bit offset - metro mode does not.
Back when the PC was invented everything was 8 bits hence why a byte is 8 bits, anyways in order to make a 16 bit register they took 3 - 8 bit registers and used the 2nd byte to point to the first and second half of the 16 bit register. It wasn't until Microsoft in 2003 did a paradigm shift to remove this problem. Once they did this all programs programmed with this offset simply can't work in the new paradigm.
If you like slow processing for simple tasks - go right ahead love the desktop.
You can not fix the desktop, just like you can't fix stupid for blindly being in love with the desktop.
