My main corporate email address has 54,872 unread emails and 56,889 total since 1 Jan 2017. That's just 2,017 emails read (3.55%).
I tell everyone that I lost the email war and that unless they call or text me, I will never see that email they sent.
I don't understand! She even states in one tweet that the word is equal to sexual assault!

I DO NOT UNDERSTAND THIS DYSTOPIA WE HAVE SUDDENLY FOUND OURSELVES IN!!
For 21 years I've been espousing this theory. Ever since I read "The Living Energy Universe", by Drs. Gary Schwartz and Linda Russek in 1999.
Almost everyone of my skeptic friends and associates told me I was crazy, as did all of my religionista friends. I just told them "In 20 to 30 years, science is going to validate me."
That time is now upon us!
You should read Ayn Rand's The Virtual of Selfishness. It talks all about this and why sentimentality and a caretaking nanny state are horrible and lead to the destruction of thriving societies, one after another.
You are *so* wrong. Approximately 30% of all *venues* have exclusivity contracts with TicketMaster that state that **100%** of their ticket sales must go through TicketMaster. And the labels? MANY of them have exclusivity contracts w/ TM as well. It's a frigign monopoly through and through, and now that TicketMaster owns the largest 2ndary market seller, TicketsNow, it's way worse.
Heh, I'll just be the first "whacko" to propose that these were a couple of Atlanteans off on an African safari. Those sabertooths must have been pretty nasty to leave just the heads!
I am a 5' 4" male nerd who wears corrective lenses. I was habitually psychophysically tortured by bullies throughout my life; today women shun me because I am still to this day psychologically scarred by their antics in my youth (although I'm getting better).
I used to be ridiculed, beat up, harrassed, and generally driven to depression *daily* by a *wide*range* of youth at my school; not just traditional bullies. Columbine happened when I was a Junior (or virtually finished with my primary education).
All of a sudden, my harrassment stopped! Literally that very same day! I was called into the Principle's office a full three times. The reason? I met a lot of the characteristics of the massacrists; sans a close friend (at that time I had none). All of a sudden, people would actually come up to me and spontaneously *apologize* for how they treated me; even 8 years later people are still *apologizing* to me as I sporadically meet them in town:O
I used to go to the Principle's office to report being punched in the face, jumped in the parking lot or being spat on by groups of girls (seriously:(, just to be told to "fight back" or "suck it up" or something. Now, my 15 yr-old nephew got guys *expelled* or transferred to other schools merely because they made fun of him and the school now has a zero harrassment policy!
After nearly 2 decades of near persistent parent-teacher meetings, moving to different schools, etc, to try to assuage the torture my peers inflicted upon the obvious physical grunt of the pack (but i have an IQ of 150), schools are finally taking things seriously.
So excuse me if it took a horrible massacre to make ordinary people realize how horribly detrimental their actions are. God turning something bad good, I guess. I will always remember the day of Columbine as the day my life started becoming enjoyable for the first time ever.
Don't forget the RSA key that had the words "NSA key" in the debug symbols that first made it into windows 98 and stayed there until WinXP SP2!! I feel these things are probably very prevalent; it's already common knowledge every U.S. ISP is pwned by their black boxes, usually also loaned to the FBI and then false-flagged as 'carnivore' (in reality it's an outcropping of ECHELON...err, now ADVISE (see my slashdotted story...)
For all the tinfoil hat people out there, I propose that the bug may have been placed intentionally, since GnuPG is, in fact, an opensource community project. So instead of taking hours to obtain a GPG key, the NSA could spend seconds and impersonate an otherwise [strike]paranoid[/strike] privacy-oriented person in typically confidential memos. Maybe a full accounting as to when the bug got there, how it got there, who put it there and the chances of it being purely human error are to be demanded? After all, some people (including myself) have invested some very expensive stakes in the security of GnuPG over the years.
Sieg heil! You're an awesome 1930s German! Please don't mind the smog; we all know it's burning the bodies of dead dogs that got infected with a rabbies plague.
No, KFG, people who are that braindead most certainly will be the informants of the Thought Police. you and I, however, will be liquidated in the order of our threat to the System. That means i'm first and you're 2nd. Give it 5 years or 1 year if there's a nuclear exchange.
It goes beyond George Orwell's dystopian vision wherein a person can be punished for merely expressing sentiments that some AI may view as a likely vector for future anti-Establishment rhetoric; e.g. pre-crime Thought Crime.
By specifically targetting blogs (as email is already heavily trolled) who they're really going after are anti-Establishment political activists who won't be silenced. E.g. people like myself, HopeSeekr of xMule, who make distributed tools to prevent this fascism from ever *totally* clamping down on freedom of speech/expression.
Since the 380 Milliion dollar concentration camps capable of holding a million plus people are already being built, the only question is when will you be prompted to act (even as little as developing a program for open systems such as xMule, which is designed for the BSDs and Linux)? When the stormtroopers demand your papers? When your sister's head meets the butt of a soldier's gun? When you are shot protecting her? When?
The questions aren't if and when, they're now how bad and will your loved ones survive.
You mean that people are cloning CEO's Check Engine Lights, turning them to the on position, and then accosting them for their money at sleezy automechanic stores? Well, you spelled it that way thrice.
Crmblznski's Limit, sometimes spelled Crizmblski's Limit, has its origins in Keith Laumer's novel "The Great Time Machine Hoax" [1].
The basic theorem is that there is a finite limit to the complexity of any given machine, which specifically precludes the operation of "a machine with sufficiently extensive memory banks, adequately cross-connected and supplied with a vast store of data, [that by its very essence] would be capable of performing prodigious intellectual feats simply by discovering and exploring relationships among apparently unrelated facts." The Limit is an irrational number, much like Pi, in that the total complexity of machine is wholy dependent upon both hardware and software designs.

Your company wouldn't be Blogger.com would it? At least, all those things and more have happened to it since it was bought out by Google.
As the saying goes, Let's eat drink and be merry, for tomorrow we die.

Glad to see that Newspeak is in such vogue with the proletariat of today! Heil Bush, mein Weltführer!

You should check out my article Judicial Tyranny Killed America in 1803 over at my blog: Incendiary.ws. ALso, spread the word.
Finally some one gets it! Sadly, we're the minority and there's no place to run or move to. As soon as Internet 2.0 is here, we're all doomed.
