    The next time you want to slam someone for "acting like you know what you're talking about", don't respond with a bunch of links to Wikipedia. Links, I might add, that are only marginally-relevant to the topic at hand. That shit wouldn't fly in college, so why do you think it's going to hold weight in a professional environment?

    Slashdot, a 'professional environment'? As if we needed more proof that you're a fucking lunatic...

    I'd like bid 5$ to buy the next 1,000,000 page views served to me. That ought to buy me an ad free internet for quite a while.

    Facebook isn't on the list at least, that would be just too ironic.

    I know, right?. I'm surprised Google isn't on that list. You'd think they would have something to say about all this.

    If they're all in, how about Yahoo and Twitter as well?

    Humans are a non-native species to NA. Judging by the buffalo, condor, dodo, and bald eagle population (among others), the animals native to NA haven't had the time to adapt.

    What's your point?

    Oh, yeah, you're just a douchebag wanting to justify wanton killing of cats.

    Shut yo' mouth. The Dukes of Hazzard was poignant social commentary on our political system, and way ahead of its time. The symbolism of Boss Hogg, in his white suit is... oh, I can't do it. I just can't do it. LOL, Daisy Duke. Fuck yeah.

    Hey, I'm all for any entertainment that showed dat ass on Catherine Bach in her prime. I just find irony in 'Roscoe P. Coltrane' complaining about banal entertainment.

    They're semi-politely called abos, but for maximum affront the term boongs is preferred.

    Not only that, but with digital TV, they know what you watch and when. With analog TV, they don't. Knowning who watches what and when is a very, VERY valuable business model - just ask Google...

    What's that? New York has more than 20% of the nation's population? So what? You mean that Amazon might prefer to collect and pay the taxes, rather than lose ~20% of their business? Imagine that . . . .

    You might want to check your numbers. New York has just over 6% of the US population.

    Maybe he was measuring by USI levels instead of raw population?
