You know all this anti-SOPA bullshit is making me hope the bill passes. callandor1000 Send a noteboard - 18/01/2012 04:00:17 AM
It is so annoying at this point that its almost not worth getting online. My online browsing in the last 6 months has shrunken to almost exclusively MLB.com and NBA.com because everything else is just ridiculous. This place is the only other place that gets much of my browsing time.

Your mom. That's right. The cat is out of the bag. Your mom.

My mind isn't always in the gutter, it just has VIP access

Right, because the argument is not just over THIS bill but, apparently, over ANY bill. - 18/01/2012 11:09:13 AM 1086 Views
