    In reply to Mirror/Ironing Board concept
    I love my ironing board (extra starch please!) but I am not so sure about this one. Imagine how yucky the starch, lint and dust will look when steamed into the mirror every day. And whats with the ONE set of legs with tacky red shoes on the bottoms? You break that mirror and its 7 years of bad luck wrinkles. Sorry but Fail.

    Reminds me more of a cave than a UFO. Would I live in it? Depdends entirely on location. In the open, this would be ok, in tightly populated areas, no.

    I had wondered what had happened to the saucer remains after Men in Black was supposedly "filmed for entertainment purposes" rather than as the documentary it really is.

    They all make over 200k a year! If they don't like it, buy a new fucking phone and quit whining!


    No, they'll whine about their phones and call us whiners because being jobless and uninsured is not a legitimate reason to complain!


    The real underlying problem is that they've got fat fucking fingers.


    Really, I'm not cynical. . .

    @Persistence: Not that it makes your point any less true, but for accuracy's sake:


    House and Senate members make $174K. Reid, in a leadership position, makes just under $200K per year. Only the Speaker of the House makes over $200K.

    "Three days later. I literally walk in and he's cursing with four-letter words, and he was slamming it down, saying, 'I can't get e-mail to work all right.' It just is not for people here who mainly use their BlackBerrys for that."


    You "literally" walk in? You didn't do it figuratively? And he's cursing with four-letter words? That was all he limited himself to?


    This guy talks like a retarded high schooler is a senior adviser to the Senate Majority Leader, and, here's the kicker: IS THE COMMUNICATIONS STAFF DIRECTOR.


    This guy's lack of command of the English language pisses me off more than a bunch of old people not knowing how to use their phone.

You get to that level of the Federal Government, you should have a pretty firm grasp of the language. I don't care that he's complaining about a phone. My point is that he probably better educated than I, and still talks like this. And Evilhomer, go eat a dick.

    I'm not sure how it's surprising to hear that politicians ad their courtesans (sorry, advisors) are a bunch of self-absorbed, out-of-touch morons. Isn't that why they got into politics in the first place?


    If they can't properly vet candidates and nominees, what chance do they have of properly vetting a new cell phone?

    Why in hell did they ditch their old phones to get a fancy piece of crap that has been smashed by reviews before?


    The answer is they are old fucktards who want to try new "cool" things that are made to seem cool and hip by John Krasinski narrated ads a la the Storm.


    It's like how Congress has youtube videos now...bunch of geezers. They clearly don't read Giz or engadget or give a damn about anything except keeping their jobs.
