  • inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6Digg is becomming useless, every article I want to read is down.
  • Snojan77, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4"9. Take a day off from work to volunteer at your child’s school."

    don't do it, your child will hate you.
  • asdfuiop, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4...valium and vodka? Or does that expand your comfort zone TOO much?
  • jeffchuck, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Look up.
  • Firehed, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3They're not advertised as news, they're advertised as stuff you might find interesting that's been posted online. If you don't find it interesting, don't click, and if you do, then enjoy the fact that someone found it for you.
  • MacBrowser, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2I love you



    ... wait, it's still Thursday..
  • Firehed, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Please put all 51 of the requisite "server down" jokes as a reply to me, that way people who don't care can just bury the whole lot at once.

  • MrsButtersworth, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Digg is useless due to the fact these articles are regarded as "news"
  • melondoc, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Use your imagination more... http://fridayreflections.typepad.com/weblog/2007/0 ...
  • chaos7, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1i actually think this is great
  • Apoy, on 10/10/2007, -0/+138. Disconnect the Internet for a week.

    OH NO!!
  • datastorageguy, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1What a steaming pile of doo doo.
  • dilbert, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I did all the things he mentions but I only got up to item 38 and then the list was gone.
  • pcslugster, on 10/10/2007, -0/+150. Get up an hour earlier than usual.
    ... thats just dumb.
  • hfactor, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1That´s also what confident people do. When watching a movie, I can't interact with my friends anyway, so I got no problem with seeing it alone and meeting them afterwards to have a beer. Only people with no friends sit at home thinking "Oh damn, I really wanna see that movie, but nobody seems to have time... But I can't go on my own, what would the PEOPLE think?"

    Plus I've actually met interesting people in the cinema. (Okay, not in your average hollywood blockbuster movie.)
  • mahdaeng, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Sounds like that's the one you need to do.

    :^)
  • siong1987, on 10/10/2007, -1/+152. Shift from Windows to Mac.

    And, this should top the list.
