Aside from the moronic answers that the moron asking the question flagged as "solved my problem," thereby permanently cementing the moronic answer as gospel truth for other Yahooligans.

Please -- it's depressing enough that I know all three names.

He learned about it when we did, watching TV.

Ah, Ari Fleischer, back when "the president's paid liar" meant what it said.

Ari Fleischer was Press Secretary? I thought he was just a giant penis in a suit. Hey - I was right!

everybody has/had a yahoo email addy. If nothing else, they're good spam catchers when you need to supply an address. Once upon a time yahoo was king and their comments sections were a vast playground of trolling and counter trolling and all sorts of entertaining foolishness. They even had stories that took on a life of their own that continued to generate comments weeks, months or years after the story itself had disappeared from the front page. Sadly, those days are long gone and yahoo is now nothing more than a run-of-the-mill news aggregator where the comment section has become a cesspool of RWNJs who are too stupid to keep up anywhere else (except possibly USA Today or HuffPoo)

I don't want to be a pill, but I'm looking forward to the end of Barry's term. Not for anything in particual with his admin, although I do have some issue. No, I've got OPHS - Obama Pointless Hater Syndrome. I'm fucking weary of the constant pointless nitpicking on this admin.

I presume it's <em>far</em> too much to ask that they try to work out how many times Jay Carney actually did get back to someone after saying "I'll get back to you", and compare that to his predecessors too.

<blockquote>Every ad posted by Yahoo! is a scam or some lame attempt to get me to buy shit that I don't need or won't work when I need it. That, or trying to get me to date random photos of women.</blockquote>

Sounds like here, pretty much.

Hopefully this treatment will turn those cases from Acute into Terminal.

It's summer time, perfect season for FEMA Camping.

It's obviously because Wonket doesn't allow comments, so people go to the next outlet.

It is basically what computers poop. The tubes carry it off to "Yahoo Servers," which are like pig poop lagoons, where it is eaten by really fat bacteria (<i>T. Baggera Idiotae</i>)

The nice thing is that Yahoo is at least giving all the rage-addicted fucksticks an actual focus for their rage. This probably serves as a wingnut public service to prevent Christian Disciplinarians from beating their wives asses to a pulp any more than usual.

At least it will be fresh bullshit...although much of the criticism will be sexist (and maybe ageist) instead of racist. No improvement there. Fuck.

Not a better shake...but a different shake.
