Yeah, I had to stop bringing my Windows laptop to class. I'd spend most of my time playing Age of Empires 3 skirmishes, and only halfheartedly listen to my professor (College, mind you.)
Now that I only bring my Linux laptop to class, I barely have any distractions;)
Oh, but I kid. There are some awesome freeware games available on Linux these days, and I'm just as distracted...
I got banned from school computers for the last three quarters of my high school career for FTPing some papers I wrote to my personal website so I wouldn't have to find a floppy (Didn't have a USB drive at the time; too cheap to buy one) to revise them at home.
I even explained what I was doing, and they had a small "meeting" while I finished up, without even going across the hall and grabbing the school's IT guys for a second opinion. Their conclusion? I was trying to upload a virus to the network. Apparently that's what you do in Microsoft Word these days.
You're obviously not the target audience for this sort of thing then. Feel free to press the magical Alt + F4 combination whenever you stop being interested.
I managed to get away with only a few nicks, and avoided any true blood shed. It was still pretty irritating to stretch my hand and feel the skin separating though.
Oh man... My Zalman 9500 literally tried killing me while I was installing it. I hope to hell that nothing goes wrong with my mobo/cpu in the near future just because of it.
That's how I had dozens of suspensions on my record back in school. Even if I was vaguely involved, even by trying to avoid a fight but them forcing it, I'd get suspended for several days too.
And then they used that as a basis to ban me from the school for life after graduation.

And if it does, I dare say we have a right to complain.
I don't need pr0n to fap.
Women? Minorities? The elderly?
I should know better as well. To think someone at Slashdot could have a sense of humor! What a fool I was!
Metaphorically speaking.
Since when does the French populace have culture?

It all boils down to a self-control issue.
I hate getting them flicked deliberately out windows when I'm behind someone on my motorcycle. They look, wave, and flick. Wtf?
Right. So "Beam me up, Scotty."

Pfft. It's Saturday morning here in THE REAL WORLD! Oh, crap. Sorry, went into Southern-American mode there for a moment..

Don't forget EA and Ultima Online.
"fringe blogs"?
It's true. The internet DOES make you stupid.
I've always had my cell phone number public online. The trick is being 100% uninteresting and not worth finding ;D
They are. They let them run free and unchecked.

It's a reference to an episode of Futurama where the crew visits a planet where... ... you know, I'm just going to sum it up here.
I download unlicensed anime, which is technically not piracy.
Whoever gave the guy that modded me down as Flamebait the mod points to do it with needs to get their head looked at.
But wait... if you weren't THERE in their airspace, how would they have shot at you? Hm?
Oddly enough, I've never had a preference for women in pr0n compared to real people I know. Maybe I just have some common sense, eh?

So... anyone have a hot daughter?
20k miles? That's hardly a year's worth of mileage.
