    I'm guessing no Simpsons fans have mod points today.

    If your T-Rex had been a Velociraptor instead it would have played better to this audience. Never underestimate the power of xkcd.

    it's almost like they were "planning" to get into an accident

    Isn't that the entire reason people get insurance to begin with ?

    What kind of idiot would spend money on something they never have any intention of needing ?

    You say that like it's supposed to hurt or something.

    My parents are worthless and if there's any truth to science I'm geneticly programmed to be worthless too. In essence I'm doing you a favor by not collaborating worthless ideas with my worthless parents or making more worthless babies with some other worthless human being.

    You should be thanking me, I'm doing the very thing smart people cry about that stupid people should do every day.

    My theory is that they do it because it's less stressfull to stay at home than it is to provide.

    It's like when niggers buy a brand new Cadillac Escalade but don't pay insurance on it.

    If you knew there's a good chance that you'ld be assumed to be the one at fault, lose your license, and probably be thrown in jail until they figured out you didn't steal the Escalade to begin with if you were involved in an accident, would you waste money on insurance ?

    that's what you get for abusing a free service. Happy now?

    This is Text Messages were talking about here.
    Providing a free SMS service and then blocking outside access is like supergluing your asshole shut the day after you bent over the pick up the soap in prison.

  13. Re:Why not just block their ads? on Adbusters Suggests Click Fraud As Protest · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Advertisers have little if anything to worry about, Google is already setup to refund advertisers for fraudulent clicks.

    The publishers who get banned from the program with one of Googles famously vague "Because you're a risk to our advertisers" notices, or who are wondering why they've got thousands of clicks showing up on their account but no revenue, will be hurt.

  18. Re:MS on Symantec Support Gone Rogue? · · Score: 1

    I will never use tech support again and will deduct points when making my decisions about what to use for products which use customer service as a selling point.

    The whole pirated software/media scene has tainted the industry of customer service soo badly, and companies have had to waste soo many resources on screening people trying to take advantage of customer service, that the service industry as a whole is nearing completely useless for anyone who has a clue what they're doing.

  19. MS on Symantec Support Gone Rogue? · · Score: 3, Interesting
    That's not as bad as the experience I had with Microsoft Tech support recently, I would have been happy if they tried to sell me something that works. My question was

    I want to know if Windows XP Home will run on my AMD64 system before I open the box my neighbor bought and can not return it to the store

    No matter how I tried to explain that, the only answer I received was that "Windows can only be installed on one computer per license".

    I ended up getting soo frustrated that I swore at the guy on the phone and hung up on him before returning the copy of Windows and just going with Ubuntu instead.
