7. I was on salary, and I wasnt a computer guy
I was in a task force at the time. Everybody was expecting near-anarchy if anything went bad. We ended up grilling some burgers once we saw that Europe was not having any problems with the flip.

4. Skinner shows up at your house and punches you in the face...
... because he knows he owns you.

11. Nope, he doesn't even say a word...
... just shows up wearing a DU t-shirt that says "Skinner" on it, punches you in the face HARD, then walks back to his car and drives off.

You'd expect more, but there's not.

15. My toaster is broken.
I plugged it in, pushed down the button, and nothing happened. I guess I'll go buy one.

19. They Prolly Still Have The Talking Toasters At Big Lots
well they aren't really talking toasters

just toasters with radios on them :crazy:

I bought one :silly:

I plugged it in and it had a gospel station playing on it and at first I thought there was no way to change the station. Thank goodness there was. Then it went to another gospel station and I thought maybe it only played gospel music.

But in the end, it has a "seek" function instead of a dial to tune it, and it toasts pretty well.

$20 for a toaster that talks!

27. Your hands will fall off from all the typing. I've found that elbows, if you have sharp ones,
make a reasonable substitute. Better than using your nose, anyway.

But don't worry, some of us in here are really not as geeky as others think we are.
