If your son has requested a new "processor" from a company called "AMD", this is genuine cause for alarm. AMD is a third-world based company who make inferior, "knock-off" copies of American processor chips. They use child labor extensively in their third world sweatshops, and they deliberately disable the security features that American processor makers, such as Intel, use to prevent hacking. AMD chips are never sold in stores, and you will most likely be told that you have to order them from internet sites. Do not buy this chip! This is one request that you must refuse your son, if you are to have any hope of raising him well.

WTF?
heres the
Website
 
I dont think its the AMD we all know and love. I remember reading ( I think it was on [H] ) that there was some company over seas selling knock off AMD cpu's as the real deal.
 
hahahahaha!

I honestly can not decide if that article is being serious or or trying to be funny. Regardless, that's one of the funniest things i've read in a long long time. :D

Damn, if i wasn't at work tho, i'd be laughing my ass off lol
 
Wow, this is some hella right-wing, tinfoil-hat-wearing, Bush-supporting, conspiracy-laden website. I wouldn't read anything off it. :rolleyes:
 
Hahaha get a load of this crap.
As an enlightened, modern parent, I try to be as involved as possible in the lives of my six children. I encourage them to join team sports. I attend their teen parties with them to ensure no drinking or alcohol is on the premises. I keep a fatherly eye on the CDs they listen to and the shows they watch, the company they keep and the books they read. You could say I'm a model parent. My children have never failed to make me proud, and I can say without the slightest embellishment that I have the finest family in the USA.

Two years ago, my wife Carol and I decided that our children's education would not be complete without some grounding in modern computers. To this end, we bought our children a brand new Compaq to learn with. The kids had a lot of fun using the handful of application programs we'd bought, such as Adobe's Photoshop and Microsoft's Word, and my wife and I were pleased that our gift was received so well. Our son Peter was most entranced by the device, and became quite a pro at surfing the net. When Peter began to spend whole days on the machine, I became concerned, but Carol advised me to calm down, and that it was only a passing phase. I was content to bow to her experience as a mother, until our youngest daughter, Cindy, charged into the living room one night to blurt out: "Peter is a computer hacker!"

And they believed that AMD made the girl charge in the living room and blurt that. I believe this is a sign of parents being retarded.

1. Has your son asked you to change ISPs?

Most American families use trusted and responsible Internet Service Providers, such as AOL. These providers have a strict "No Hacking" policy, and take careful measures to ensure that your internet experience is enjoyable, educational and above all legal. If your child is becoming a hacker, one of his first steps will be to request a change to a more hacker friendly provider.

I almost shit myself from laughing so hard after this one :p

6. Does your son use Quake?

Quake is an online virtual reality used by hackers. It is a popular meeting place and training ground, where they discuss hacking and train in the use of various firearms. Many hackers develop anti-social tendencies due to the use of this virtual world, and it may cause erratic behaviour at home and at school.

If your son is using Quake, you should make hime understand that this is not acceptable to you. You should ensure all the firearms in your house are carefully locked away, and have trigger locks installed. You should also bring your concerns to the attention of his school.

EVEN FUNNIER HAHAHA

ok now, lets not get into a political war. lets just focus on the topic that these people are idiots.
 
I feel silly.

:eek:

Look around the site more, especially the About page. The whole thing was obviously a joke.
 
Can anyone explain why their is a link you can go to called Abortions. That link makes no sense at all after reading some of the topics under it.
 
Well I just emailed the site operator .... I really need to know if that was a joke or not.
 
I know some peeps might not like AMD, but damn I never knew hate for video games, processors, and anything but AOL could go this far...


My eyes are watering, and sides hurting! lol


ahahaha
