    I'm so glad I don't pay for the internet by the hour anymore.
  • Genshinx, on 03/27/2008, -3/+61Dial up.... A cold chill just ran up my spine.
  • ahac, on 03/27/2008, -0/+31Where is:
    - Realizing you just installed Safari when all you wanted was to update iTunes.
    ?
  • magicaltrevor, on 03/27/2008, -0/+27Digg with comments
  • PhireN, on 03/27/2008, -0/+22I've used youtube on dialup. That is pure torture.
    30min for a 3min video.
  • daniel, on 03/27/2008, -1/+21Can't believe they didn't mention RealPlayer.
  • Zaggynl, on 03/27/2008, -7/+24Oh please, Vista isn't that bad, works fine here, especially with SP1.
  • Emused, on 03/27/2008, -2/+17Exchange Server 2007 tech support (over bad VOIP implementation) from Bangalore IN.
  • moletimer, on 03/27/2008, -0/+9Diggers replying to diggers about how stupid their reply was to the digger who didn't give a good reply to the other digger.
  • P1um, on 03/27/2008, -2/+10Digg without comments
  • HyperJack, on 03/27/2008, -3/+11Rick rolls.
  • annoia, on 03/27/2008, -5/+12Non-mac fans to be forced to spend an hour with a mac-fan, going on and on about how wonderful the mac is, how wonderful mac users are etc... Much like the comic, actually. It's horrible!
  • rjmoriarty, on 03/27/2008, -4/+11Dugg for Scoble's Twitter stream. I'm a voluntary follower, and even that has dubious effects on my sanity.
  • mikelieman, on 03/27/2008, -0/+6That Indiana tech support doth such mightily.
  • sk11, on 03/27/2008, -2/+8A far worse variant are vista fans. They'll astound you with the lengths they'll go to justify the amount of money they've spent on it.
  • gordmoo, on 03/27/2008, -1/+6never has a website reminded me so much of the pre 2000's than this one, adding "being forced to view a website full of animated gifs and an 'advertise here!'" space should prolly go on that list.
  • badjoke, on 03/27/2008, -0/+5Ugh. Agreed.
  • Zettabyte, on 03/27/2008, -1/+6Non-mac fan: I'm bored let's have a LAN party!!

    Mac fans: wat
  • Godlike, on 03/27/2008, -0/+4Please advice sir, has open the window?

  • Emused, on 03/27/2008, -1/+4UART going to do that awful sound again are you ?
  • tylerjames, on 03/28/2008, -0/+2dugg for Poo Buckets
  • schotty, on 03/28/2008, -0/+2On Linux, the RealPlayer software is actually quite nice.
  • mooseofshadows, on 03/27/2008, -0/+2This makes blogging sound like an expletive.
  • stalefries, on 03/29/2008, -0/+2That's only because they haven't figured out how to screw it up yet. :)
  • bradleyland, on 03/27/2008, -0/+2My english is finings.
  • edwartica, on 03/27/2008, -0/+2I miss that sound actually.

  • badger454, on 03/28/2008, -0/+1That's masochism, not torture.
  • badger454, on 03/28/2008, -0/+1Wow. That's cruel. Not even Hitler could have condoned such a thing!!

    I got heart palpitations just thinking about it.
  • kalleanka, on 03/27/2008, -4/+4Dugg for the pool:

    What would torture you the most?
    A Clockwork Scobleizer.
    Reading bloggers writing about bloggers writing about bloggers.
    Mahalo as my primary search engine.
    A lack of bandwidth.
    Having to use Vista.
    Forced to give up pizza.
  • robbiemuffin, on 03/27/2008, -2/+2some other missing alternatives:

    waterboarding....their iPhone instead! ("Nooo!!!!!! MY I-PHONE!!!!!!")
    Reading time-shifted web pages, news blurbs, and 70s-era-reality-TV-from-europe like it was today ... AGAIN
    Watching perfectly good technology, or even just dns names for that matter, being squatted by angel-fund-hopefuls or worse, people who fear to see competing technology.
    Apple-or-PC, discuss? Hot-or-not, vote? The red picture of Stalin or the blue picture of Stalin, vote. Hillary or.... oh wait. They're THE SAME

  • edwartica, on 03/27/2008, -2/+1Listening to Ron Paul fanatics going on and on and on and on.

  • reflex768, on 03/27/2008, -9/+2Now that's just inhuman. I might be tempted to take the simulated drowning instead.
  • louiebaur, on 03/27/2008, -9/+1I will skip vista and stick with xp
  • hawksdomain, on 03/27/2008, -13/+3Simply hysterical! :)
