Rules of the sukkah via kmelion, by someone channelling Dr. Seuss.

From the "I can't make this stuff up" department:

Man sues God for not keeping him safe from the devil. As khaosworks points out in his analysis of the case, the plaintiff has problems not just of enforcement but also of venue and contributory negligence.

This one is especially for nsingman: An (unnamed) company is developing a two-part implantable MP3 player (link from autographedcat). This has "bad idea" written all over it. (I also assume it's a hoax.) But think of the UI implications!

I loved the Rules. Way too much fun!

Remember the source

The mp3 player comes from Ananova. Ananova is to the internet what The National Enquirer is to the grocery store checkout line.

(and "They claim that it comes from The Sun" doesn't exactly help)

Dang. I was hoping it would turn out to be someone imitating the Onion, not someone imitating the Enquirer.

I mentioned the breast-based .mp3 player to my wife and she suggested that testicles could be replaced by implants and then men would actually have a reason to play with themselves.

Of course, the other option was: why?

Of course, if it's transmitting to headphones, it could transmit to other devices. Giving the perfect user for said device: Ashley Simpson...that way, she can't blame the sound guy when she's on SNL.
