Help me find this internet joke about the discovery of fire.

December 31, 2009 12:52 PM

Looking for a briefly popular internet joke from a year or two ago. Setup was if the discovery of fire had been posted to slashdot (Digg? other?). Response is something like: "Too hot, smoke gets in your eyes, goes out too fast. Fail." Ringing any bells? Google is failing me.

This echoes the well-known post on Slashdot when Apple introduced the iPod. Something like: "No wireless. Less space than a Nomad. Lame."

Response by poster: Yes. I think it was a direct parody of that iPod post.
