lol, yes i am just a brainwashed incel. What does that make you? A big brain IQ alpha that's married to the queen of england. posh posh
I'm a happily-married guy who knows a thing or two because I've seen a thing or two. I don't claim to have a big brain, but it's done pretty well for me so far. For example, it helps me spot the kind of numbnuts who blindly support authoritarian assholes and wanna-be dictators. Yes, I'm referring to Trump. I don't mean to be condescending*, but I suspect your support for him is based on an inability to think critically and face facts regardless of how they conflict with your worldview..
Is that the kind of dysfunctional asshole you want for a president? It doesn't matter what I want. He was duly elected.
See, and that's where you run off the rails. First of all even if he was duly elected, that is not a reason to support him (or anybody, for that matter). Not to Godwin the discussion, but Hitler was duly elected. So was Nixon. Neither of them deserved support.
Second, it's not clear if Trump was, in fact, "duly elected". Personally I have some strong doubts that he was elected legitimately and without outside interference. But even if he was, so what? If a leader is an ignorant dick and an idiot, why support him or her? That's the blind sheeplike follower mentality that allows dictators and tyrants to flourish. And they love people like you.
Finally, saying "It doesn't matter what I want" is a mind-bendingly foolish thing to say. Of course it matters, that's what this is all about. Only a fool thinks it doesn't matter what they want. From deciding on dinner to picking a world leader, it definitely matters. You may not get what you want, but it still matters.
I get it (and yes, it can be very effective) but they could fine-tune it so that a user gets some reasonable number of texts before charges start to apply. Institutions like schools could get a higher threshold.
Also, you wrote this:
small enough not to bother regular users (who send only a few thousand text messages a month)
Serious question- I know some people do send that many texts a month, but is that amount commonplace? Several thousand a month?
Damn, I don't know if I've sent 1000 in the last 5 years. I don't communicate with gobs of people, but still...several thousand a month?
If someone is sending several thousand texts a month, when do they find time to eat and sleep? I'm not judging, it just seems like a massive amount of time to me.
Serious question: How do you find out about new products that are relevant to your interests?
First of all, I have nearly everything I need and want, so I'm not terrorized by the urge to constantly buy stuff. I don't have the urge to look for things I don't have and then buy them.
The new things I do find out about? They may show up on Amazon or in a magazine or are mentioned to me by a friend. Sometimes I may hear about them on a radio station. Or maybe the "buzz" around them becomes so great that it's impossible to avoid hearing about it.
But really, the bottom line is that I'm not looking for new stuff to buy. Some people just can't comprehend that. Not all of us are desperate to find new shit to purchase. I'm one of them.
You're either missing the point or are being disingenuous. Either way, I'm not going to waste my time trying to un-brainwash you.
It takes two to fight.
No, it doesn't.
So it looks like I was right- you've never been married. Call me back after your first couple of marriages go south and I'll be glad to accept your admission that I was, in fact, correct.
That's his personality and has always been that way?
Is that the kind of dysfunctional asshole you want for a president? Really? SMH.
I regularly visit my ad preferences to remove and even add things that make sense. This way, I get advertisements for things that I actually want
Bravo to you, but I already know what I want.
I also don't need to be told what I want or that I should want some product or other. In fact, hectoring me to buy something generally causes me not to want whatever it is. But that's just me.
I don't understand why the democrats are fighting so hard over something so small.
And I don't understand why the president is such a narcissistic moron who lies with every breath.

> that ship has sailed Then we keep the government shutdown.
>bamboozle fucktard sychopants like you I am still uncertain why the Democrats are shutting down the government
LOL, first you say "we" keep the government shutdown, then you pivot and blame it on the Democrats. Cute, but face it- Trump owns this shutdown all the way- he even said so in the Oval Office. So yeah, it's his (and apparently yours, too).
We should shut down the government over a minuscule amount of money (compared to federal budget) that democrats have supported because he said a stupid lie?
He had two full years with a Republican controlled congress to get the money- why didn't he get it then? The Democrats offer him 25 billion and he refused to accept it, so yeah, that ship has sailed.
Now he wants to bamboozle fucktard sycophants like you into giving him the money. Feel free to donate all you want.
The reason to do it isn't because he is having a tantrum, he is using leverage to win a negotiation
That's NOT a reason to declare a National Emergency. "I want this, you won't give it to me, so I'll declare a National Emergency!"
Fine. Then the next Democratic president can just start declaring National Emergencies to get whatever he or she wants. That'll be fine with you, right?
That said, it wouldn't surprise me if some Democrats had some stupid ideas- they've had many stupid ideas over the years- that doesn't make building a wall right.
Exactly.
Just because a few people from the Democratic side once liked the idea doesn't mean it's a good idea.
Besides, Mexico was supposed to pay for the wall, so Trump can go talk to them if he wants billions of dollars for his symbolic penis.
One side is upholding the democratic process preserved by the house and senate, the other side is holding a government to ransom for his pet project like a dictator.
Bingo.
Also, something that's been getting lost in the debate is that Mexico was supposed to pay for the wall, right? Trump has managed to shift the goalpost so far that it's now out in the parking lot.
In an April 2016 memo, Trump’s campaign outlined the steps he could take to get Mexico to pay for the wall.
"It's an easy decision for Mexico: make a one-time payment of $5-10 billion to ensure that $24 billion continues to flow into their country year after year," the memo said.
So yeah, I don't want to hear another word about U.S. taxpayers paying for his wall. Make Mexico pay for it, like he promised.
Members of the "yellow vests" protest movement have vandalized almost 60% of France's entire speed camera network
I hate to admit it, but I'm okay with this. I hate speed cameras and I applaud any ballsy SOB who takes one out.
I don't want to be policed by a computer. If speeding is that bad, put a cop on the corner with a radar gun.
Catch me fair and square and I'll pay the ticket, but fuck me if some shitbox running Windows 7 should be allowed to issue me a ticket with no real recourse.
I don't give a shit if they debut 300 new phones this year, I'm just not into Apple's offerings.
Apple products seem to cost too much $$$ for what you get, they're too locked down, they're not expandable, few if any replaceable parts, and I hate having to wear a turtleneck.

He didn't DDOS a hospital. He DDOSed a hosptial's fundraising website, to bring attention to that hospital's bad behavior.
Sorry, DDOSing is an asshole move, period. "I don't like this thing, so I'LL FUCK IT UP SO NO ONE ELSE CAN USE IT! wah wah wah"

I agree, thank you for confirming it.
No need for it here, I know where my radio is.
Sorry, but if you DDOS a hospital, fuck you. I sincerely hope you spend a significant amount of time in prison. And I don't mean a year or two.
I have absolutely zero sympathy for assholes like this.
I hope he vetoes EVERY SINGLE BILL they pass until they get a 2/3rds majority or a rock-solid 15 foot concrete wall.
