Don't mind him, he's being cool by being willfully ignorant of and not caring about the intricacies of the evil Turtleneck Empire when it suits him and his (lack of a) point.
Since there are still WWII vets around, games with Nazis should be no-go. Anything after WWI really. Of course, some people may have lost relatives in previous wars, so war games should basically be banned, out of respect.
This one was probably their planned yearly rig cook-off to drive up gas prices for the last gasp of summer (before they have to switch to producing the more expensive winter gas).
"He said/She said"s in court tend to side with the "she said" side until there is a preponderance of evidence otherwise. Doesn't matter if you get convicted, you're screwed (even if you weren't).
Or you get the one that decides your jokes were sexual harassment and pushing the boundaries will get you convicted as a sex offender and living under a bridge for the rest of your life.
People still loudly criticize Apple for putting music in their proprietary AAC format. Good luck enlightening them on even less visible things like SIM cards.
Though when you have someone following you they have dedicated "boots on the ground" resources to do so. Planting and monitoring a device is a trivial amount of effort compared to dedicating personnel to the task and would be treated equally as trivially.
Well, when everyone was talking about how talkies are the cat's pajamas and the bee's knees the only way to keep your cred up with the flapper crowd would be to not like it, and to make a show of not liking it.
Hmm, I thought the Tea Part[y|iers] [was|were] saying that they've always been here. (That Feb. 2009 thing was just when they got publicity.)
Either way, history has shown that when political parties start inventing origin stories and tracing their ancestry it is a good time to make sure your passport is updated.
"even the average poor American, tends to eat too much, and not too little"
You are confusing food quality and quantity. The poor eat food that cities demand, made for shipping, storage, and calorie density, not nutrition. If the food has only calories and no nutrition, in the long run it doesn't matter if your belly is always full. The reason they eat that "food"? That's all they can afford and all that merchants care to sell in poor areas.
No wonder why Gandhi said that he liked Christ but did not like Christians.
The ones most loudly proclaiming their Christianship and how strict they are in adhering to the bible are the ones who ignore the fact that what they are strictly adhering is mostly Old Covenant and what they are mostly ignoring is the New Covenant, ie, that which makes Christians, Christians.
Do you eat shellfish? Wear clothes of mixed fibers? All that other stuff in Leviticus? Or do you just pick and choose that which makes you feel morally superior to others without causing too much inconvenience for yourself?
A war of tanks and men in nice formations with well defined front lines? They'd have to be really nuts to start one of those with us. That's the sort of war we're very good at.
Radio (even FM) has much better range than digital OTA and a much higher tolerance for poor signal quality. I couldn't expect a phone friendly antenna to pick up much of a signal when large structural antennas can barely pick up a usable signal from a local station.

Try smart playlists, assuming you have metadata for them to work off of.
You can set iTunes to leave your files (and all your precious hand crafted directories) alone.

So basically you feel ripped off whenever you purchase anything since you could have gotten it for free.

Too cool to care!
Feigned ignorance is definitely where it's at.
You're one hepcat man.
That is why we can't have nice things.

Exactly.
AAC is not an Apple owned format.
If people can't get that through their skulls then there's no hope of convincing them that the new SIM format is not proprietary to Apple.
The only Apple fanboys spouting that spiel are the ones made of straw and which exist only in comments like yours.
You pick up on what the strawboys say in a Hater's post and then use it as proof that fanboys are always saying it.

Hey now, that's defamatory speech. Against weasels.

Remember how 199x,200x,and so far 201x, have been the year of the linux desktop? That was just software. This is software AND hardware.
iPads with a data plan came out after the wifi only ones.

"what's the downside of high food costs again?"
Let them eat cake.
