    Klerck, you know that all of us trolls admire and appreciate your page-widening prowess. These wide pages truly are better than the narrow pages that we are used to. But why do you continue to waste time on this rotting shithole past-its-prime weblog? You should really spend more time making Trollaxor.com's pages as wide as Slashdot's. I hardly ever post on Trollaxor.com anymore, because the narrow pages there make me claustrophobic and uncomfortable. I find myself resizing my brower window just to get the "high" that only horizontal scrollbars can give me. But such cheap tricks are no substitute for that premium smack that is a wide page. Help a brother out!

    I can't stand the ads

    the ads are better than the "content"

    pure drivel drives off the plain old drivel

    The channel logo in the lower right hand corner pisses me off to no end. The Science Channel is the worst. I've quit watching it when I go to someone else's house. (I don't pay to watch TV as a protest to Jack and Hillery).

    Can't stand the CNN bull sh*t taking up 3/4 of the screen while the talking head gasses on about drivel.

    Most of the "news" is lies or spin anyway.

    What isn't lies or spin is just inaccurate anyway.

    Phew! I feel better now.
