Did Bill Clinton approve of the use of his invention to guarantee porno portals?

Seriously, I used to like Clinton. Over time, I came to realize he was nothing but a rapist, a drug runner, a criminal, and his wife, a piece of shit just as horrible as he was.

The purpose of this communication device is education first. I was very shocked to see George W. Bush able to lie us into a war in Iraq, thought it was a failure then, but I was on this communication device in 1989. I was basically 10 years ahead of the times.

I was very pleased to see a carnival barker like Trump win the presidency over that filthy Neocon fuck Hillary Clinton. I gave up too soon, and now I'm going back into it.

You really really honestly can't appreciate the power you all have. This site will fit on a $20 SD Card, the entire thing. You can run it on your home system, on a 10 watt $75 computer called a raspberry pi. That little TOY is more powerful than the MAINFRAME I started out with.

Our last mission is to distribute this power. A website shouldn't require registration, and a server at god knows where, it should be a box, you plop down next to a router, and turn on. It should be that fucking simple. It will consume 5 watts, nothing.

This communication device can allow voice, video, file sharing, data collection, general communication, everything. It can replace phones, television, film theaters, everything. We can replace public education here. Not only replace, but VASTLY improve.

On a TOY I can do nuclear bomb simulation now. I never saw this as a possibility in my lifetime as a junior engineer, but we're at the point where I thought we'd be when I was 100. You really have no concept, and can't understand, what your simple, machine can do today. Software is lagging WELL behind hardware. That is FAR from being impossible to fix.

I wonder how that would fly at my local Starbucks?

If you know any Filipinos, you can appreciate this one

OK, I have a question here, does anybody wipe front to back?

Because if you do, you're INSANE.

About 50% of the population are women. Their levels of insanity vary.

This is hilarious and spot on.

I grew up very close to one of the two Bay Area towns that many refer to as “Little Manila”

a.) Hercules, CA
b.) Daly City, CA

For Bay Area - U should recognize this as well

I had this same problem in western Ireland. It often takes a while before you can tell if someone is speaking Irish Gaelic, which has zero overlap with English, or speaking English with a heavy Irish accent.

Does Tagalog have a mix up between anglicized 'P' sounds and 'F' sounds? I don't really get the joke.

Paul, be careful!
You’ll fall in the swimming pool

You’ll Paul in the swimming Paul

Yes, apparently like the related language Hawiian, which also uses P for F.

A "half non-Hawaiian" is "hapa haole".

Fifty five is pipty pive. They are from the Pilipeenes

Side to side to get rid of the over burden first, then back to front for the final cleanout and inspection.
