"Should I spread lots of newspaper about before immersing the CPU and boiling the oil?"
Posted by: CJrun | March 31, 2007 at 09:51 AM
Wouldn't this work better with a Mac?
Posted by: Lairbo | March 31, 2007 at 09:57 AM
WTFBBQ?
Posted by: Jeff Meyerson | March 31, 2007 at 10:14 AM
I tried it, but my scores were shockingly low...
Posted by: PirateBoy | March 31, 2007 at 10:37 AM
Naw, Lairbo ... Macs are cool!
Posted by: O'theU(manity) | March 31, 2007 at 10:39 AM
So THAT's what they mean when they tell me "you fried your motherboard."
Posted by: slyeyes | March 31, 2007 at 11:04 AM
What do you want to bet this started with somebody saying "Damn I bet you could fry an egg on that thing!"
Posted by: almne | March 31, 2007 at 11:17 AM
Would you like files with that?
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | March 31, 2007 at 11:21 AM
FINALLY! Now I can have snacks to go with my laser coffee!
Posted by: Punkin Poo | March 31, 2007 at 11:22 AM
**snork** @ lairbo
Would you like fries with that?
Posted by: Deskdiva | March 31, 2007 at 11:24 AM
Hey, what's this "Int3l Inside" sticker doing on my new deep fryer?
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | March 31, 2007 at 11:28 AM
And what does this "Crisco Systems" label mean?
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | March 31, 2007 at 11:29 AM
**snork @ meanie**

As a lowly computer programmer by day and a computer superhero, like geek squad only cooler ( ie more pocket protectors) I am going to recommend against this. However here's something I do recommend doing with those peskie little MACs
Posted by: orcel | March 31, 2007 at 11:32 AM
Uh oh, orcel. You're gonna have OtheU all worked up, now.... :)
Posted by: Deskdiva | March 31, 2007 at 11:36 AM
"Mmmm....these fries are yummy! Did the oil contain any trans-fats?"
"Nope, just trans-istors."
"I just can't resistor them!"

*grooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaan* @ punkin
^5s her for a good groaner.
Posted by: Deskdiva | March 31, 2007 at 11:42 AM
Let this be a Wesson to us all. Never buy a PC from Taco Dell.

*high 5's deskdiva right back*
Posted by: Punkin Poo | March 31, 2007 at 11:45 AM
"Mmmmm.....yummy chips."
Posted by: Punkin Poo | March 31, 2007 at 11:46 AM
Oh, and SNORK @ Meanie for his Wessonality.
Posted by: Punkin Poo | March 31, 2007 at 11:47 AM
It's got Wessonality!®
Posted by: Florence Henderson | March 31, 2007 at 11:48 AM
Try to keep up, Florence.
(She's getting old. Her hair can't hold a flip like it used to)

ORCEL!!!
FUNNY!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
L!
O!
L!
That's a very nicely done page, also ...
Since it involves a lot of grafix werk, I know it wuz done on a Mac ... merely sayin' ...
Posted by: OtheU(manity) | March 31, 2007 at 11:54 AM
OtheU...it probably was done on a MAC. Heck my best artistic crap is done on a MAC, but when its time to do real work, I go to a real computer...Linux.
Posted by: orcel | March 31, 2007 at 12:02 PM
OK ... whut ever ... I enjoyed the site, tho ... and I enjoy tradin' critiques of other systems with those who (geek or not) have a sense of humor ...
Posted by: OtheU(manity) | March 31, 2007 at 12:16 PM
Hello, this is Tech Support, George F0reman speaking, how can I help you?
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | March 31, 2007 at 12:55 PM
MACs are better for turkeys.
Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | March 31, 2007 at 12:59 PM
Yep, Annie ... more power, and faster, too ...
Posted by: OtheU(manity) | March 31, 2007 at 02:25 PM
LMAO... kudos to all hands. ;-)
I especially liked the aquarium conversions -- thanks, orcel. Way down the page was yet another use for a recycled Mac. Just the thing for the mouser in your life...
Posted by: JerseyGirl | March 31, 2007 at 03:25 PM
Jerseygirl - hilarious. Especially the look on the cat's face.
Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | March 31, 2007 at 04:27 PM
Whut, Annie ... you mean the "It's MY Mac, and keep your filthy paws offa it!" glare?
Posted by: OtheU(manity) | March 31, 2007 at 04:29 PM
More like, "how humiliating - taking a dump in a MAC."
Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | March 31, 2007 at 04:46 PM
More likely he's echoing Catbert's sentiments when the PHB visited him in that situation: "Dude, seriously. Come back later."
Holy coincidence! Did some Googling to see if, by some miracle, I could find the strip in question, and wound up at a blog which mentioned the Weinermobile: http://www.saroy.net/archives/uncategorized/
Posted by: Richard the Weasel-Hearted | March 31, 2007 at 05:32 PM
Silly me. Forgot this blog doesn't auto-convert links for you. Here 'tis.
Posted by: Richard the Weasel-Hearted | March 31, 2007 at 05:35 PM
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Naw, Annie, I think it's more like, "At least I don't hafta sit in a disgusting PC!"
Posted by: OtheU(manity) | March 31, 2007 at 06:14 PM
" ... or I'd NEVER get done, here ..."
Posted by: OtheU(manity) | March 31, 2007 at 06:15 PM
"Honey, I thought you were making fries for dinner."
"I was going to but the bot blocked me."
