If your working for me, I'd like the ability to fire you on the spot if you come to work high (or drunk). Its a liability for my business.

Could someone explain to me how Farmville is social gaming at all? Tradewars and Geopolitics were real social games from the BBS days. Farmville is just a virus which tries to infect all your friends with its pixel crap.

I'm going to thank the unions for gutting the manufacturing.

(Think of moonshine ...)

Also, what makes you think the government is competent enough to pass a law that won't benefit big business somehow and screw something else over?

What you're not getting is that eating silkworms and drinking recycled pee isn't going to inspire anyone to go into space.

I had to take a personality test several years ago and the HR manager showed me my results. After she read the results, I told her that they were interesting, but as valid as my horoscope.

I suspect that there are people from all over the world involved in this project, including the US.

Why would you visit a website you "fucking hate"?
