All that person's post needs is for "trackpad" to be a sexual euphemism in some context, and it turns instantly disturbing.

It wasn't a euphemism? :unsure:

Why were you touching your brother's trackpad? :p

Because I commandeered his laptop one day and he wouldn't let me use his wireless mouse and I was too lazy to get mine, so I used his trackpad. It didn't feel right to my fingers, it felt too sleek or rubbery or something... just BAD.

That's one reason I love my laptop. Backlit keyboard.

At this point, I can type what I want to say with my eyes closed and my fingers on the keyboard with little mistakes.

(And I just typed the above sentence with my eyes closed.)

That depends on what your definition of "is" is.
Venicilian: wow. Jesus hung around with everyone. boys, girls, rich, poor(mostly), sick, healthy, etc. in fact, i bet he even went up to gay people and tried to heal them so they would be straight.
The Parkus Empire: Being serious on NSG is like wearing a suit to a nude beach.
New Kereptica: Since power is changed energy over time, an increase in power would mean, in this case, an increase in energy. As energy is equivalent to mass and the density of the government is static, the volume of the government must increase.

Relatively recent NSG meme. Started just as TET started. Cromarty finished a rebuttal to an anti-gay argument with "Also, bonobos" and it stuck.

This becomes instantly more awkward the moment you realize that many engineers refer to the trackpad as the "Computer Clit".
