Advances in technology are pretty awesome. But like they said in Spiderman, "With great power comes the ability to drunkenly alert your ex-girlfriend that you still think about her when you masturbate." I think that was the quote, I haven't seen the movie in a while. Anyway, google is trying to stop the drunk e-mailing problem. Wired.com reports:
Google released a useful new Gmail feature yesterday in its labs, which could help prevent the intoxicated from sending embarrassing late-night emails they might regret in the morning.
When activated, the program will force a user to solve a series of math problems before allowing any message to be sent.
My brother is a super bad dyslexic, I can't wait to put this setting on his gmail and watch him soberly try and access his account. Thank you, google.
I like that google looks out for the common man. I think personally, if I could request, I'd like google to make an application that forces me to answer particle physics equations before I'm allowed to purchase tickets to see an M. Night Shyamalan film.
In disguise, Google is a retard hater. This is step one to abolish all of the mentally lame. Kinda like how Alexander Graham Bell was trying to abolish the deaf with his telephone.
And then of course the last question would have to be about something totally different than particle physics... a big twist that makes you question the logical behind the previous questions and whether or not you just wasted your time.
The big twist at the end could be that the internet never existed and it was just one dude fucking with you and putting random shit on your computer. Then he kills you and says something like "I logged you in, and now I have to log you off." *Laughs*
That photo and the fact that you mentioned masturbation somewhere in the article reminds me of an incident my freshman year, circa 2001. I came home drunk and alone, and with no roommate around I decided to rub one out. Unbeknownst to me was my B.A.C. was still on the rise and I passed out, dick-in-hand. To this day I thank my lucky stars that my roommate never came home that night. Boy would that have been bad.
I think it's a great idea. Back in the dial-up days I remember saying someone should make a modem with a built in breathalyzer. It would have saved my a lot of explaining and apologizing.
