Comment of the Day

Nothing like taking your kids to a restaurant and having the servers work extra slowly. Nicholas Hall wrote about his experience with his bored kids at an Olive Garden in DEFCON dining. One commenter, Laurie, felt relieved at the post:

Thank God. I thought your children were superhuman freaks for never loosing it at a restaurant.

When we were little kids, we were nothing but perfect little angels, so we have no idea what any of these people are talking about, but hats off to the parents of the world for dealing with unruly children. Cheers!
