    Seriously,

    Are you guys so far behind over there that every little thing has to be "by his command".

    I'm getting to the stage of feeling thoroughly cheesed off with slashdot. I know it's got a yank spin, but it feels like over the last few years the propoganda and the yearning for america to be number 1 is off the charts.

    Yes, yes, I know where this is going my burger eating rotund friends.

    Any chance you guys could sort your shit out, and stop fucking up the rest of the planet just because you're greedy?

    Also be really cool if you stop with that whole "pushing our economic rules on everyone" crap too.

    Thought not.
