"Isn't that exactly what Google Music is doing now?"

No.

"But most, liberals, understand that guns are a threat to the lives of tyrants, and most liberals wish they were tyrants."

As a pro-gun advocate, I must ask that you stop making pro-gun advocates look like raving fucking idiots. Thanks in advance.

"Statistically speaking, you are safer on your standard 737 jet than you are sitting on your couch, in your living room."

When my couch has a catastrophic malfunction, everyone on that couch is just about 100% likely to survive.

"So the police are tampering with evidence? Isn't that a crime?"

Only if you're not a member of the gang in blue.

This same story keeps cropping up in various forms, but we've been doing this at least since the 80s or 90s. I don't know why it keeps being rehashed or why people continually seem surprised by it at this point.

When I was a lad, we got our Lego bricks (which were made of solid lead and coated with radium, as was the fashion in those days), and we were perfectly happy to snap them together in the shape of an amorphous blob.

Get off my lawn.

That just sounds like really horrifying pornography.

"He said that parents who lose their children to tragic accidents might be able to clone replacements in the next few decades."

But this wouldn't be the same child. The original will have still died in the accident. It's like replacing your daughter's dead puppy and naming it "Fido 2." Even she knows it's not a real substitute.

Unless the ISP redefines the meaning of the word "unlimited."

You misspelled "We tried to get away with it and got caught." Happy to help.

After it was implemented, what was stopping the habitual slackers from showing up twice a day (to log in and out), and being absent in between?

I think I can help. "DBOX" is industry shorthand for "DoucheBox," which is technology marketed at pretentious assholes.
