I haven't eaten one of those white castle mini burgers since I was 8, but I'm pretty sure that they don't qualify as sliders. Even if Wikipedia says they do.

A slider, as I understand it, is a thin piece of beef (not a patty) cooked at high temp on a griddle on top of onions, which is then served on a mini-burger bun. The steam from the onions does most of the cooking of the beef.

In other words, a slider seems like something pretty dang tasty, whereas a mini burger is just a small burger, and if it's produced by this White Castle place, it's not a very good small burger.

Ewe guys! Hoof ucking posted this video up here? There's Mutton you can say to make me try to Ram a bunch of Cheesy puns into this comment. You're really Milking this one.

It's not your fault that Hulu can't be arsed to get on with making their service international.

And I haven't seen any evidence that they've even tried; if they were serious about it, they'd have it rolled out at least in Canada and Europe by now. But they haven't, because they aren't going to.

So when a producer chooses to distribute their documentary online through Hulu, they have decided they don't want an international audience. Too bad, because I would have watched the whole thing, if it had been on some other service. Stick ads in it and put it on Vimeo. put it in the Itunes store for 6 bucks. Whatever.

I suppose I could buy the disk for 12 bucks, or wait until it comes around in the rotation at my local Imax theatre. I actually would reall ylike to see it.

Meep!

It's the old "Oh, I guess we can't stop you from doing it so we'll just give you permission to do it" play from the Vatican.

Oh, I guess we can't stop you from celebrating Mithras and the Winter Solstice, so we'll just call it Jesus' Birthday so you can keep doing that annual feast thing you do.

Oh, you just don't want to let go of this Earth orbiting the sun thing, well, I guess we can approve it then.

Oh, you just won't stop looking for Aliens. Isn't that cute. Well... if you find any... we give them permission to exist.

Now if only they'd give people permission to be gay and use condoms, we could all get on with the 21st century.

Or I can just buy it on the iTunes store, apparently

Whoa! Freaks!
I havent' seen that in a Loooong time. Going to have to go dust off the ol' VHS deck and head down to that awesome rental place in the artsy part of town.

Viral marketing, yes. But it's fairly well done (except for the failure to register the domain under the name "Dr Alphonsus Headshrink, Psychiatrist") and it's creepily enjoyable to suspend disbelief for a minute or two. Like a zombie movie. I know those are fake too.

Yep, I had one in the 80s when I was like 8 years old. It wasn't for beer, and it wasn't clear, and you certainly couldn't use it to hold any kind of liquid for any extended amount of time. As one of the posters above said, you could use it to grab a quick glass of water, anything else and you'll have a sticky mess in your pocket. From the cup, sicko.

He stopped eating his pillow, but now they have to buy Fritos and pizza by the case!

Ah, someone had to go there.

31 kilos of garbage, and 41 kilos of rocks, branches, gravel and broken concrete, I bet!

Which reminds me, i've got a d-link router, and my neighbour has a Linksys, and just last week he called me a d-LOSER and threw compost at me!

These Linksys people are just out of control.

Isn't Charlie Brooker known as the Guardian's most die-hard anti-mac columnists, famous for being determined to badmouth the OS and its users with utter disregard for any actual information for or against?

I mean, he's entitled to his opinion and his OS choice, as is everyone else, but are we sure Mr. Brooker is the best source for a balanced view on this particular topic?

I mean, there are Mac "fanboys" (I hate that word) and Windows "fanboys" and Linux "fanboys", and I wouldn't ask any one of them for a balanced comparison of the various OS options and their proponents, because they usually offer more contempt than facts. And this Brooker character, I'm pretty sure, falls into the Windows fanboys camp.

You only touched on the advantages briefly; following the link, I notice that the manufacturer lists a number of other advantages, including, but not limited to:

Execellence
Conenience
You are not going to hurt another person s eyes.
You can use two merits at the same time
we can put the logo or mark as your hope.

Another disadvantage would be getting through doors, and you probably won't be the most popular person on the subway. Especially if it's one of those Japanese trains where they have to stuff people in.
