  1. Re:IQ and bumper stickers on Road Rage Linked To Automobile Bumper Stickers · · Score: 1

    Still my favorites are those who put political candidate tags on their cars. Better are those who leave them on well after the fact. My favorite are the "Save the rain forrest", "Save the planet", "Save some other bullshit" bumper stickers that people put on their old shitty smogblasting cars.

    Now I realise that that, from now on in, it can only impede my access to artists, and their access to my cash. I gave up trying to do the right thing long ago.
    I learned that the studios are only interested in playing underhanded so Im not giving them the money to file lawsuits.

    That is one of the reasons I haven't bought Mathematica. I could buy the official version and then install the cracked one, but that also doesn't feel right. Your right it would be wrong to waste money like that.

    Using the cracked version and keeping the money would be a better compromise.
