Yahoo Answers fail answer of the day


I was looking at Yahoo Answers like any self-respecting me would do. I haven't been on there in a long time. Since then I have acquired an Xbox 360 in a game of chance. I thought I would wander over to the Xbox related questions and see who I could help.

Here is a question with an answer that makes me proud to be an American.

Is it better to use a xbox 360 wireless adapter or Ethernet cable for your xbox 360?

i have been using ethernet cable but i have recently bought a new wireless router and my xbox always seems to have a red dot (MW2). With this router my laptop and iPod speeds have increased. So im justing wondering what I should do
The answer to the above question was answered correctly in a few other posts but one answer really caught my eye. This expert must have perpetually enabled caps lock. Because with their level of genius, which you will witness in a moment, that can be the only explanation to the all caps answer.
 
YOU COULD HAVE THEM BOTH HOOKED UP, THATS WHAT I DO. BECAUSE I BOUGHT THE WIRELESS TO GO WIRELESS BUT I NEVER TOOK IT OFF. AND MY XBOX IS RIGHT NEXT TO MY ROUTER SO I HAVE IT WIRED TOO. AND WITH A WIRE YOU HAVE A BETTER CONNECTION THAN WIRELESS. AND A CABLE DOESNT CREATE LAG UNLESS THERE ARE A LOT OF TWISTED AND TURNS AND KINKS IN THE WIRE.
You heard it right from J.P.'s keyboard. If your CAT5/6 isn't straight then you will experience lag. Well at least now I know who to blame it on when Jake and I get split up on opposite teams and he just happens to kill me in Halo 3.

“I like to hold the microphone cord like this, I pinch it together, then I let it go, then you hear a whole bunch of jokes at once”- Mitch Hedberg

same logic, if you pitch your cat5 you will lag, but as soon as you unkink it, freakin FiOS.

im not positvie unkink is a word.

It’s a word. It’s what you see at all the sexy parties they have over at the U.N.

for the record i have never been invited to any of those parties because of a longstanding disagreement with dag hammarskjöld

In a semi-unreleated note: Don’t forget that sometimes you need to disconnect the cat5 and blow on it as if it were a Nintendo game cartridge. Clearing out the dust improves the speeds.

Speed up audiobooks and podcasts. Twelve Black Code Monkeys have a trick for Blackra1n speeding up spoken word on your iPod.
