Were you living under a rock 3 years ago when the Bamboo Pen&Touch originally came out?
Because this is basically the same thing.

T-Mobile's G2 denied the update Touch

Mine's gone back
T-mobile denied me the update, the phone's unusable. I can't charge the thing twice a day, and I'm damned if I'm turning off mobile data and wi-fi... what's the point of the phone if I have to do that? Why they didn't just put a faster processor and better battery in this thing, or wait until it was ready before releasing it, I don't know.
Government stamp of approval for fake weed
Wednesday 12th August 2009 17:19 GMT
Someone's not up on their weed-economics
'If you're paying 20 quid for 3 grams you're being ripped off, badly. £25 should buy you half an ounce (14 grams) of resin and at least a quarter (7 grams) of grass these days.'
... yeah for really shitting block maybe, decent skunk is gonna set you back £25 on the 1/8.
Spice is fucking minging. Tastes like burning fish with some plastic in there for good measure.
How about we stop banning harmless substances and let people exercise choice? I don't ban fatty foods or lambast the fat (and believe me, I fucking hate those pie-scoffing fatties)... so leave the smokers alone, it's OUR choice, not yours.

If the US Gov't response is as shit as the UK one...
... then they'll just completely ignore the results of these polls...
Every petition that's made its way onto that board has been ignored. Jedi isn't a religion, Ghanja isn't legal and ministers haven't had to give up their "John Lewis list".
You'd be better off writing your request on a piece of toilet paper, wiping your arse on it, then flinging it over a rainbow.

@Rob
You're giving us a bad name man...
To everyone citing Rob as an example to maintain this pointless prohibition, I happily pull over £40k a year developing software - I don't get high all the time, certainly not at work, but it helps destress me when I get home.
It's quite possible to maintain a healthy lifestyle and contribute to society while enjoying a controlled substance, but it comes down to your own mind-set... some people go crazy and schizophrenic (though arguably, it's just catalysed what's already in their mind), most people are fine.
So, until you all stop drinking alcohol (which is pretty bad for you), please keep your judgement of me and others like me, to yourself.
Prison warders told to can 'hurtful' language
Monday 19th January 2009 13:58 GMT
Um...
Look, mental health issues or not... if someone's in jail because they can't figure out not to cut someone up, they're fucking lucky to be alive at all and not dead as a result of their crimes. Frankly I don't give a fuck what "hurtful language" they're subjected to in prison, as it was likely their "hurtful behaviour" that put them their in the first place.
There's gold in green: profiting from climate change
Monday 15th December 2008 13:06 GMT
It's all bollocks
It's just another myth that we're fed and told to believe. The current agenda is causing little children to think that it's true, and lecture us based on some shit they saw on Blue Peter.
I'm glad that there are at least some scientific minds that don't subscribe to this shit. It won't have any effect on the way things are going though; the UK gov't method of making money through tax and stealth tax has still left a blackhole in the treasury... without more bullshit taxation, they'll never plug that gap and has there ever been such a worthy vehical for bullshit tax than Climate Change?

India draws up own Google Earth plan
Friday 14th November 2008 14:17 GMT
Damn right they get criticised!
India is a pretty grim and skanky place, impoverished and dirty. I can understand that they don't want to be left out of space-race 2.0, but ffs! They need to get some basic sanitation, a welfare state and clean up their skanky cities before they go pollute space!
Apple opens Macbook front in iPhone jailbreak war
Led Zeppelin plan Plant-free tour
Tuesday 28th October 2008 18:47 GMT 
They tried this before...
Jimmy Page played with the Black Crowes, and it was shit. Robert Plant's voice IS Led Zeppelin... the band touring without him isn't the real thing.
Hasn't Jimmy Page made enough fucking money from the last tour? Give it a rest guys!
Paris, because even she knows when to call it a day.

Apple pulls posted pulled iPhone modem app
Tuesday 5th August 2008 11:23 GMT 
no use bitching now
Look, you guys still bought iPhones despite the ludicrous pricing and possibly illegal distribution restrictions... if you had any sense you would've voted with your feet and not bought one until Apple conceded and released the phone in a normal way.
I have a Tmobile contract which is considerably better value than the stupid iphone one, and I can happily use my phone as a modem... oh BTW, my fair use policy is 3.5gb a month.
