And a bar run by crime lords is more hostile than a grocery store. What's your point? The Internet is a very large place, and while it's nice to patch up these holes, it requires someone to come over here to this tiny indy computer game site and exploit them first. I haven't had a virus program on my computer for years, and it's done me no harm because I don't open viruses and I don't go to sites where I can catch viruses.

Oh wait, sorry, forgot you're paranoid.

You know, I consider myself somewhat of a hacker with a bit of an interest in video processing, but that still doesn't make hoarding illegal copies of films any more legal or okay in my book - and I still dislike people verily who boast their so-acquired video collection...

Hey, I've got a metric ton of anime, movies and series, too - it's just that I own each and everything on legit DVDs. After all, there's people who actually put a ton of work into those, and they have a right to be compensated for doing it.

And that's as much as I'll say on this, as I don't want to steer this thread even more off-topic.

Steering this thread ontopic would be like taking a train headed towards a giant pile of ketchup packets, and aiming it back at puppies.

Both are equally comedic, but come on.

This is probably all you need to know about Banjooie: that according to him, a train running over puppies is equally as funny as a train running over packets of ketchup.

And you get bored of the packets of ketchup what, two seconds after? And it's like 'Damnit, now I don't have ketchup, and some guy has a 5 minute cleaning job later maybe.'

You don't even get a cool souvenir like with pennies. Or that delicious possibility that maybe you'll dera--

Evil comedians make the best villains, though.

Nah, the best villains are those that take reasonable positions to disturbing extremes. Especially if you take the time to follow them down the slippery slope, because then you've got people cheering for the guy fighting against those evil Landover Baptists or whatever and then just watch them clam up as down the bottom of the slippery slope they're trying to blow up Westerm civilisation.



This thread has been totally derailed. And now we're back to trains!
