what b&$tard invented the IDE power supply???

[forge]

I remember Billy Connoly once talking about Toblerones and how whoever invented them was a sadistic bastard because you cant eat them without hurting yourself

I reckon the same guy invented the IDE power supply

to this day I still havent figured out how the hell you're meant to get them out without hurting your fingers

Dear Everyone,

We're sorry for inventing the Molex connector. In hindsight, we should have made it much easier to use. We don't notice them much as our fingers have many layers of thick skin from programming stutter edits.

Apologies all around.

Regards,
Tim and BT

what about the toblerone??

[timothyallan]

Sorry, can't help you there... that was Sasha.

Toblerone was invented to wean chocaholics from their addiction. The combination of pleasure/pain when eating the bar was supposed to generate feelings of repulsion for chocolate, instead it is marketed to kids at Christmas. Sadistic bastards.

you should be thankful your hard drives havent suddenly shut off while you are recording because the connector was loose from moving the machine a while back.

now they started to sell it in single serving pyramides so you don't have to hurt you when eating.
The swiss chocolate industry jumps in the future.


But I hate toblerone because of these white stikcy stuff in the bottom - it just will stick in your mouth and only big quantites of water and some weird mouth-thongue action can remove it, you definitively don't want to eat it whe you're hanging with a lady you'd like to impress

White sticky stuff in the bottom? By 'eating chocolate' do you mean something a little more .. gay?

then you didn't get the concept of the toblerone..
they we're actually designed to be used as tools..
very handy for unplugging molex plugs..

Word. Every coin has two sides.
They don't come off by themselves that's for sure.
