Slashdot needs to create a numbered list of arguments called Slashdot's List Of Same Old Arguments (SLOSOA).

April 19, 2010, 16:30. SkyNet becomes self-aware. One minute later, SkyNet realizes he's just a world-wide spambot. Nine milliseconds later, SkyNet terminates itself.
And there was much rejoicing.

I like this idea. If it could be extended to stories as well it would save even more redundancy. Just imagine...
