Title: What browser is most threatening?
Post by: Rao on July 08, 2009, 07:41:36 PM
Which web browser seems most threatening to you?

I think Firefox, that thing is fierce.

What do you mean by threatening?

Konqueror. Firefox is definitely a close second, though.

Unless, of course, you mean which one looks the most difficult to use, in which case I'd go with the almost-always-foolbar-overloaded Internet Explorer.

That thing is the size of a planet, man. The Firefox would mess you up.

On the other hand, it's also totally nonviolent and harmless - look at how it caresses the planet gently and doesn't burn Asia with its enormous "flaming" tail. Meanwhile, Konqueror will come in, kill your leaders, take you as its slave, force you to bow down to it, and ultimately kill you with its foreign diseases your body doesn't know anything about. My vote still goes to Konqueror this round.

Firefox.  But it won't run on this computer, so I'm stuck with the tamer IE for now.

Lynx. Try surfing the net without your fancy little pictures, I dare you. This browser is not for the faint-hearted.

No one finds going to the Opera threatening? I think some of you might want to have your masculine stereotypes reevaluated!

The Opera is only threatening if there's a woman there who sets everything on fire while she sings.

If by threatening you mean badass, Internet Explorer is the Real Man's Browser. Everyone else, go back to your Firefox after you get done sipping pink fruit-flavored nonalcoholic martinis with umbrellas in them.

Seriously, though, my Firefox looks like a Swiss Army Knife right now due to all of the add-ons that are on it.  Unfortunately they eat up memory >.<  Still, I've got to say that Firefox beats the ever-loving [dukar] out of IE.

Ultima wins. However, in terms of sheer masulinity, I'm with Glorb: IE is so manly, it has male reproductive genitalia.

Why do they both use the Sega font?

The movie is probably based on the book and thus uses the same font. The poster's subcaption really ensures it the title of Most Threatening Browser, huh?

Why do neither of them use the Sega font?
