Apple to 'Switch' to Windows? 1
Right. And Pigs to 'Fly' Out of My Arse.
Dvorak, stay away from the brown acid, man.
This is so preposturous, is it even worth debating? One thing you have to admit, Dvorak is great at getting attention. This article he wrote is going to be huge and everyone will be talking about it for some time, I'm sure.

Funny IT Joke
Apparently it's an old joke, but this is the first time I heard (saw) it. ha!
A man is flying in a hot air balloon and realizes he is lost. He reduces height and spots a man down below. He lowers the balloon further and shouts, "Excuse me, can you tell me where I am?" The man below says, "Yes, you're in a hot air balloon, hovering 30 feet above this field. " "You must be an engineer", says the balloonist. "I am", replies the man. "How did you know?" "Well", says the balloonist, "everything you have told me is technically correct, but it's of no use to anyone." The man below says, "You must be in management." "I am", replies the balloonist, "but how did you know?" "Well", says the man, "you don't know where you are, or where you're going, but you expect me to be able to help. You're in the same position you were before we met, but now it's my fault."
SOS: Students for an Orwellian Society
SOS: Students for an Orwellian Society - I would say its a lot of funny satire, except for the fact that it's doubleplus ungood scary truespeak.
Bush And Blair At A Gay Bar
This is a very well done video mix of Bush and Blair singing a song about going to a gay bar, gay bar, a gay bar bam... damnit I'll have that song stuck in my head for the rest of the day. (here's a direct link in case the page doesn't work right like it did for me)
Hilarious Dude Lip Syncing
I just got done laughing my ass off at this fat guy lip syncing a Romanian disco song. via Industrial Waste
Update: Holy crap I've been getting a lot of hits for this page! Turns out he was featured on the Today Show, VH1, and it was even on our local news last night. (Seems he's from New Jersey and we're near Philadelphia) How surreal to see that guy singing on TV. My wife and I still crack up every time. You can see some video about from NBC10 here. (warning, their stupid video interface is IE on Windows only, won't even run on IE on osx)

Fecalgram - Poop Flinging Has Evolved
Anonymously send someone a nicely packaged pile of poop. On the box will be a code that the victim can logon to the website to send you a message. Ok, so after you read through the FAQ it turns out it's not really human feces. It's some kind of very realistic mixture of water, salt, flour... and nuts. Wonder if it smells like poop.
Hmm someone needs to send one to the following address:
1835 73rd Ave NE, Medina, WA 98039
Amus: Talking Worm
Uh oh, the viruses and worms are starting to evolve. I'm telling you, they're just a few steps away from becoming sentient. This one uses the speech engine in Windows XP to say the following:
How are you. I am back. My name is Mr. Hamsi. I am seeing you. Haaaaaaaa. You must come to Turkey. I am cleaning your computer. 5. 4. 3. 2. 1. 0. Gule gule.
Bonus points for the first worm that starts out by saying "In A.D. 2101 War was beginning."...
