A or alternate holes. The uneven weight in B has caused more than one oops in the past for me.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I'll go with A, simply because it makes the carton easier for me to handle. My wife likes B for the same reason.

Alternate removing eggs from each end, moving towards the middle: Constant location of the center of gravity no matter how many eggs have been removed, no matter how the carton is oriented.

That jogged my memory about something in sprint that I read. You can baton the fastest runners to win during the Japan Olympics.

So I was hoping to be one of the first people to sign up to (F)Rank? a social media platform that has been hyped and rehyped after the initial launch failed.

There it is, in all of its glory. 
The Color #000001 and the banner randomly in the middle of the page is a nice touch.
Not sure how to post though.
Guys, this is a case study in doing literally everything wrong with a website project.
Edit: It's using a Drupal stack as its backend! I can tell because it crashed.

A single far-right live-video. Nothing clickable. Is this satire or for real. Not that I care all that much but the question does arise.

The creator of it claims he spent "millions" to make it the most secure site ever.
I guess he was right. Nobody can log in, and there's nothing to hack. 
He should have given me those millions of dollars. I would have done him the favor of telling him his idea was a loser and saved him the embarrassment.

Personally, I don't think that he possesses that human frailty that enables us to feel embarrassed.

That one's deliberately bad though - they accomplished what they set out to do, hence not a failure.

  OK, you win.
Even though I must admit, the more I look at it, the more I ... like it.

But that website actually works. So minus several failpoints for being functional.

Considering its origins are you actually surprised?
I am surprised it got to this point. That it is a failure is not at all surprising to me.

I am not surprised that it got to this point, because the man running this is well known for continuing to push something despite sanity, common sense, and reason and damn the consequences.
And of course, given his track record, and the track records of the merry band of (elephants) that actually take him seriously, the failure is not at all surprising.
I suspect there was illicit drug use involved, but that's just a theory on my part.

The worst website launch is and will forever be Obama-care.

Last time I checked that wasn't a website, but a nickname for the affordable care act.
Are you okay?

I don't know if your desk is like mine. Two computers, several miles of tangled wires, and a ton of loose papers.

Not a bad thing when you come to think about it.
