- Olle, on 10/12/2007, -5/+63This is what Slashdot says "Our marketing department has done extensive research over the last 3 quarters and discovered that our audience is strangely disproportionately skewed towards males. Like, 98.3% males to be precise."
One reader said "***** the other 1.7 percent" and another reader replied "I'm trying, I'm trying".
Hehe... Funny stuff. - GuineaPig, on 10/12/2007, -11/+58Making Slashdot uglier is quite a feat.
- Tobey, on 10/12/2007, -21/+47Wow. Somebody didn't have their nap today...
- Tobey, on 10/12/2007, -22/+47Yeah, but this one has a funnier description.
- Ceadda, on 10/12/2007, -11/+30Idiot, it's the april fools day joke.

- Briankb68, on 10/12/2007, -14/+21Considering you misspelled "a lot", I would be careful throwing the word stupid around if I were you.

- oh slashdot,...... finally giving into the pressure of Digg.
..it's almost like BEING on digg! :P - reidypeidy, on 10/12/2007, -13/+16Hey everyone, Tokachu wants to touch the editors of slashdot's testicles!
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -12/+15are you really that retarded?
- brandizzle, on 10/12/2007, -20/+23Um...I actually like it. It's cute.
(& that's not sarcastic at all...I love the color pink) - GeneralChang, on 10/12/2007, -8/+10+ Digg,
Because on the main page they posted Digg like Titles
"OMG WIRELESS EXTENSION CORDS!!! LOL!!!"
"CUTEST WEB SITE EVER DISCOVERED!!!" - cadavreexquis, on 10/12/2007, -7/+9Is Digg's April Fool's joke to bury every comment in existence?
Oh, sorry. Hooray for ponies! - Tobey, on 10/12/2007, -7/+9It's just a joke. Calm down. We aren't THAT cloistered.
- swazo, on 10/12/2007, -8/+9At least theyre down to earth enough to par-take in some good spirited humor. I see Kevin was hard at work as usual.... doing..... nothing?
Ah well. I laughed, good time good times. - NoodlyAppendage, on 10/12/2007, -16/+16You can just feel the love.. Through your retinas.
Slashdot does, and always will rock. - tacom8, on 10/12/2007, -9/+8no thats everyday...
/april fools is like a joke your grandma tells you.. sure you smile and force a chuckle... but deep down you just want to shove her down the stairs for sayen something so lame...
//Ban April fools day in '07! - BrettJB, on 10/12/2007, -8/+6It's good to see the /. crew poking a bit of fun at Digg with the ZOMGALLCAPS!!!eleventy! style headlines. Though I suppose many here will simply conclude that imitation really is the sincerest form of flattery... ;)
- StealthTomato, on 10/12/2007, -6/+4Heh, excellent that Slashdot has the courage enough to do this. Half the above commenters that diss it wouldn't have that courage.
- statmobile, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0I'm going to regret posting this on the internet, but that is a complete parody of the boy named "Deeper"
- antdude, on 10/12/2007, -4/+2I think an awesome prank if /. and Digg switched domains/Web servers. :)
- knightblade2oo4, on 10/12/2007, -7/+4no I can't...
thanks for ruining my week, *****. - audi100quattro, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1The following comment has helpful directions... who says /. isn't helpful?
http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=181816&threshold=-1&commentsort=3&mode=nested&pid=15038664 - statmobile, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1I will resist the temptation! Hahaha
- mejason69, on 10/12/2007, -8/+5that pretty gay!!! but then again so is Slashdot!!
- anagami, on 07/02/2008, -5/+2Although at first sight this is funny, IMO the idea is lame.
It uses an old cliche of not intelligent tech girls, like implying that girly/feminine is stupid, not "tech" worthy. There are some girl techies that are equal or more intelligent than the avarage male techie... even as a male I don't really feel sympathy for someone that uses the color pink (as implying girly) as a joke in a supposedly male-only worthy tech world. That's sick. - csprech, on 10/12/2007, -9/+6that is pretty non-hetero
- aliensoldier, on 10/12/2007, -12/+9Yeah, no kidding. That color dried out my contacts!
- comradevik, on 10/12/2007, -9/+5slashdot is making fun of digg
- EasY_TargeT, on 10/12/2007, -10/+6wow so many buried comments
- EvilCowSan, on 10/12/2007, -9/+5beats the ugly green they used to have, too bad april fools is only one day ;p
- rekrapt, on 10/12/2007, -9/+5He can't... he is in high school. Hormone issues.
- Tobey, on 10/12/2007, -7/+3Uhh... Good to know...
- Boredom431, on 10/12/2007, -7/+2Well I must be honest I actually really like it, the main reason I avoided slashdot in the first place was because the background just bugged the crap out of me it was so ugly (my favorite color is green too)! I guess I'm part of the 1.7% of girls that avoided the site. Hopefully though Slashdot will change it's color permanetly although preferabbly not pink but a nicer shade of green or at least blue.
- jimmyM, on 10/12/2007, -7/+2my april fool's joke is not marking this as lame.
- jutendouji, on 10/12/2007, -9/+4This is probably the funniest April Fool's joke I've seen in a LONG time, haha.
- Psykus, on 10/12/2007, -7/+2What's with the massive comment burying?
- kristin364, on 10/12/2007, -7/+2This is awesome - dugg
- tavisjohn, on 10/12/2007, -6/+1What a brilliant marketing scheme! Change your site in such a drastic way, that all your competing news sites report it, giving you FREE ADVERTISING to all sorts of people that like that sort of news site. Bam! Bonus $$$ From the adverts.
- jmcmunn, on 10/12/2007, -5/+0Well, all of the comments are pointless babble for one thing.
- majorbabu, on 10/12/2007, -8/+3"This. Is. Sooo awesome! You guys are totally invited to my sleepover. We're gonna talk about servers, and soldering irons, and building..."
ok but ur sleepover might crash - rekrapt, on 10/12/2007, -14/+9I'm blind... help. I'm blind. Where's my lawyer?
- elamr, on 10/12/2007, -11/+6Slashdot.. You are a bunch of pillow biters.
- studiorats, on 10/12/2007, -7/+2my eyes my eyes!
- JayRod, on 10/12/2007, -10/+5I bet the pink matches the panties of those running the show over there in Slashdot.
- tacom8, on 10/12/2007, -6/+1that's awsome!
- sithl0rd, on 10/12/2007, -5/+0My eyes...the goggles do nothing!
