Internet Service through your.... toilet

LoS-NutzholzWolf · 04-02-2007, 11:53 AM

Yes, thats right folks! Google has done it! They are providing you with the greatest form of communication for free through your toilet. Now thats a big data pipe! They offer it in 3 speeds: Trickle, No. 2, and Royal Flush. It currently only works with Windows Vista and has high hardware requirements. But its free!

Hmm, get flushing you all, the internet is not getting any fuller.

Hey, I just tried to send a really big file through this new internet, but it got bounced back. Now there's data everywhere!

Everytime I try and put up a firewall, the lid goes down.

Every time I sit down while the firewall is up I get burned. The toilet backs up everything the internet goes down.

So apparently, it's not data overflow you're smelling but Nutz's burnt I/O port.
