Zeit-Kolumnist Marteinstein:

Ich habe jetzt eine schlechte Meinung vom deutschen Kinderfilm. Ich war aber auch froh, dass ich wenigstens nicht in ein Weihnachtsmärchen gegangen war, weil ich mir jetzt lebhaft vorstellen kann, was der Weihnachtsmann dort mit seinen Rentieren tut, Maria und Josef, der Esel, und dann auch noch die Heiligen Drei Könige mit ihren heiligen drei Zungen.

Köstlich :-) [via vowe]

Of course I will.

Also via James Snell, new lyrics to an old tune — if you find this funny, I suspect it’s highly unlikely your spouse will share your amusement. (I know mine didn’t.)

Very nice:

    open(LIFE,"life");
    @mind=<LIFE>;
    close LIFE; 
    unlink "life";
    while($day=pop @mind)
    {undef $day}

Another great Fake Steve quote - LOL:

Unlike IBM, which used its monopoly and market power to abuse customers, we at Apple are using our monopoly and market power to make the world a better place. It’s just simpler when everyone can focus their attention on one vendor. As long as that vendor is not doing evil. Like us. And Google. Okay.

Apparently, “it costs between $1200 and $1500 to 24kt gold plate a MacBook Pro”. What’s not to like? ;-)

So, Sun changes its stock ticker symbol from SUNW to JAVA — what a dumb idea. Interesting comments from Joe Gregorio and James Duncan Davidson, but there’s no doubt the one from Fake Steve Jobs is the best :-)

Mark Masterson:

“Project”, as used here, being defined as “that strange unit of work where a pointy haired group has determined scope, cost and time a priori, and now wants to know how much effort will be involved to achieve these preset goals, where any answer that does not meet the a priori effort figure which is hidden in the pointy haired group’s minds will be instantly rejected.”

LOL.

See here for evidence ;-)

Very funny:

It’s not just a matter of reading books and decorating the nursery. Here are 12 simple tests for expectant parents to take to prepare themselves for the real-life experience of being a mother or father.
