what's the dumbest thing a non-hacker has said to you?

[vskid]

i was just programming my ti 83+ for some homework and some kid runs over and says"dude, what kind of screw blackberry is that?"
another kid walks over and says,"man, that cellphone looks like it was from the nineties!"

Everybody at my school seems to have games on their calculator, or, at least know that you can put games on them.

Same. I see no reason why someone that goes to a normal high school/did within the last 5-10 years wouldn't know what a graphing calculator is.

ah yes, calculator games. You know they ported Wolfenstein 3d to the TI-83? There was also another raycastor game that was a bit better. had something to do with killing aliens.

But then I got a DAP with rockbox and moved on to full color, full speed Doom

That's funny, my physics teacher 4 years ago convinced the class that they made a new TI-84 that had color pixels 1/4 the size of the normal ones, and the processor inside could handle Doom.

That was exactly 4 years ago! It was an April Fools joke!

Tetris on a graphing calculator FTW. After quizes in my Calc 2 class I'll boot up my TI-89 Titanium and start playing it, it's a blast.

Well I do believe someone was working on porting Doom over to the Ti-83/84. don't know how far that got.

Alright I'll tell you something that just happened in my S.S class between another girl


Girl: "What religion to Muslims celebrate?"
Me: "What do you mean?"
Girl: "What holiday do they celebrate, Christmas or Channukah?"
Me: "Wait, you think there are only 2 religions in the world?"
Girl: "Yeah, I mean there's only two religions, Judiasm and Christianity."
Me: (Headdesk)



There is something wrong with the people in my town.

You ever tried typing on a computer on a site which is not allowed and could get suspeded with 3 teachers in the room?


Sorry, fast typing: Hanukkah.

I seriously need to learn to type better.

I'm not sure Satanism is a religion. I'm pretty sure that's more of a philosophy. And how could you forget Scientology?

I'm pretty sure that it can be spelled either way. But it's not really a big holiday. It is made out to be one mainly because of its proximity to Christmas.

When I show my portable to my friends, the #1 question is "How did you make the screen?"

[Skyone]

Channukah? Really?

Yes. There's no true translation for the Hebrew word for it; it's only interpreted.
