  1. Re:Gee, thanks. on How Interesting is Your IP Address? · · Score: 1
    Much like the hundreds of bottle caps tell me; I am not a winner.

    Not anymore. Now you have to log in and give them an email address before they inform you of your loser status.

    My gf uses AOL and her inbox is full of this shit daily. I would rather not see SEXUALLY EXPLICIT 100x over and over again as I scroll down the list.

    Everyone has read LOTR many times over and everyone knows that Peter Jackson just has to follow the storyline of the book
