Somebody make a shitty about it that's like a prequel to Aliens but most certainly is not a prequel to Aliens! [a-WINK!]

Tangentially, does anyone know of a procedure on Android which enables you to spoof your personal data and activity (at least as far as apps are concerned)?
Example: your name is Dorothy and you're in Kansas clicking your red ruby slippers together, but all apps see you as Toto, living down in Africa, blessing the rains.

Here's an idea: next time something this "newsworthy" comes up, don't post it!
Because of all the horrific deaths that have occurred just today.
Oh, and think of the children.
Don't hate the player, hate the game.
Trouble is, the game never changes.

Is that American Barbie outsourced the job to Indian Barbie (http://www.amazon.com/Barbie-P8228-INDIAN-BARBIE/dp/B002PEQKHG) at a quarter of the pay and pocketed the rest as profit.
That's the American way.
BROADWAY HOTEL SUCKS
You were lucky! Instead of breakfast they gave me a green paste of dubious origin. The room had no shower, if you wanted to get clean you had to stand under the rain. On the bright side, the holes in the roof helped do that while staying in. On the other hand, there were no windows, just holes in the wall (on one of the three standing walls, the fourth one was just a hole into the abyss.
Of my two sons, one disappeared after going to the kitchen for dinner. We had to sell the other to pay the fine for this review.
"Eh, you were lucky to have a room! We used to have to live in t' corridor!"
"Oh, we used to dream of livin' in a corridor! Would ha' been a palace to us. We used to live in an old water tank on a rubbish tip. We got woke up every morning by having a load of rotting fish dumped all over us! Hotel? Huh."
Free market my ass:
Exactly.
Just to be clear: I meant that in a declarative sense, not an imperative one!
Is basically what these people are - or want to be. Reading the wikipedia article on the subject ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R... ), it's hard to distinguish the behavior of the current conservative groups in question and the unscrupulous landowners who lived along the Rhine:
"They hindered commerce by imposing unauthorized tolls and tariffs and at times by sometimes ransoming or hijacking the goods outright..."
Free market my ass: the real goal of all these crony capitalist "conservatives" is rent-seeking (man, that's another good article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R...)
Or as Ron Swanson put it:
“Never Half-ass Two Things. Whole-ass One Thing.”
They got caught with their dicks in the cookie jar, and still (still!) they blame the kid who called them out for it.
Don't fool yourself with ideologies and policy statements and fancy speeches. It's all Bullshit. Democrats = Republicans = Cunts. Power likes to suck itself off and *hates* it when someone gets in the way. Somehow we all know this, but sometimes we need to see it to really believe it. Did many of those who voted for Obama really think the government under his administration would not only be caught spying on US citizens, but that he himself would actively defend it, and that he would use his underlings to spend more effort on the Snowden witchhunt and character assassination than looking into the NSA overreach wrongdoing? It's disgusting behavior, but not wholly unexpected for any reasonably diligent student of political history.
The only people worse than those trying to acquire power are those trying to retain it.
So you think that money is the root of all evil. Have you ever asked what is the root of money? -- Ayn Rand
