I'm pro-life. I support the right for women to dispose of parasites that put their lives in jeopardy.
That's what you meant, yeah?

They're being arrested for possession in a state in which it is illegal to possess marijuana.
How is the legality of the purchase of that marijuana in one jurisdiction relevant to its illegal possession in another?
Tax receipts are pretty irrelevant on that front.
erm. Gambling is a noun.
Sorry
Carpet munching is protected by the constitution?
It may not be 'a comedy' but it very intentionally includes a lot of comedy elements to it.
Maybe that's my problem. Maybe I like funny films rather than comedies.
You had the change the battery in your watch? How archaic.
Even when I'm not wearing an automatic mechanical watch with no battery, I wear a solar powered watch that charges itself.
I guess the battery in it will wear out, but not for another decade or two.
This is why I now love Sony.
"Why are you IT guys so expensive?" Because otherwise, Sony.
"Why is IT so slow?" Because Sony
"But I can and it's cheap" Yep. Sony.
In house IT isn't expensive because people are stupid, it's because doing it properly, securely, with data integrity, resilience, etc isn't easy, isn't cheap and needs checks and balances that sadly slow the processes.
Or Sony. But hey, it's your business.
You may not care whether 10 million people die in Seoul but generally speaking it would be considered somewhat bad.
So you never outsource your artwork or modelling or packaging or any other part of your development process?
Because other independent developers that I know do. And they outsource to Eastern Europe because the people there speak English and are very very cheap. Which means less work available locally, which means more competition for jobs, which means lower ages. Yet I still have to pay 8 times the fucking price of people in the country that helped write the software?
Sorry but pick option B. It's a global fucking world and I'm fed up with my quality of life being compromised so that people in other countries can get the same benefits for less.
When developers in Russia stop accepting work for companies in the UK then I'll consider giving a fuck about them getting to buy the same fucking products at half the price that they're available to me.
Globalisation has to work both ways.
Yes. San Franscisco, USA.
What, California's now a country? The size of fucking China?
This is the bit that fucks me off.
IT industry wages are depressed because of competition in regions of the world with lower costs of living.
So I get paid less, but I still have to subsidise their fucking computer games? Sorry but that's just fucking inequitable.
I live in a country where people have been prosecuted successfully for murder because they killed the driver of a car that had been trying to run them over, and the fatal shot was fired after the car had passed them - by inches.
It's called the rule of law. The judges are compassionate, court cases take into account mitigating factors, the prosecution service can and often do choose not to pursue certain cases.. but people are definitely held to account if they seek to exact extra-judicial revenge.
Delightfully I live in a country where beating someone up because you don't like what they've done is illegal.
Maybe you should move.
Comically the BBC is currently getting bashed for supporting a book about assassinating a former British Prime Minister.
But verbal feedback is some way from threatening mass murder. I'm not sure that any movie justifies that, and particularly one that gravely offends some cunt with no sense of humour.
Yes Kim, I mean you.
