    just needs to calm down

    You arrogant, mother's-ass-fucking son of a bitch. How goddamned dare you say, "Someone needs to ...." when what you really mean is, "I want someone to ....", but haven't the balls to take responsibility for your pusillanimous wish to control the behavior of others?

    Eat my shit.

    And you can shove your panty-waisted, "Oooohhh, someone has anger issues." response all the way back up your asshole.

    So, for example, if I buy one copy of a programming book, I can legally make a copy for every employee as long as they don't take it out of the building?

    That's some whacky coolaid you're drinking there.
