Homosexuals say that they should be able to marry anyone they want, just like heterosexuals. But heterosexuals can't marry anyone they want. They cannot marry a person of the same sex anymore than homosexuals can. Sexual orientation is merely one factor in deciding who can get married to who.

The MPAA said:
illegal downloads cost the U.S. economy more than $20 billion a year

Yeah sure. Like food pantries and Freecycle cost the economy.

Can't let people get food without paying for it.
Cash for clunkers too, maybe?

Drain on the economy how much again?

The Google search http://www.google.com/search?q=music+piracy+economy
returns results about claims of piracy "robs the United States of $12.5 billion in economic output and more than 71000 jobs annually"

Extending that logic, public libraries, food pantries, and Freecycle must be robbing the United States of a lot of money, er, make that "economic output and jobs" too.

Fifth-third commercials

Is this what Fifth-Third Bank thinks of its potential customers?

Party (Don't be that guy)
Do they really think their customers need Fifth-Third in order to not be that guy? Sounds insulting to me.

Snuggies and not paying the electric bill


I was going to hunt down and link to every commercial on my own, but they all seem to be collected:

dontbethatguykyle


But really, do you want to go to a bank that thinks so little of you that they believe that without their help you'd turn into "one of those guys"?

Meritline.com ps2 controller device driver

I bought a Playstation 2 controller to PC adapter from Meritline.com. The computer found drivers for it, so I left it like that. I finally got around to inserting the driver disc and the filenames on it were cryptic. Not only that, Microsoft Security Essentials found what it thinks is a password stealer in 2008U+P.exe

The filenames are:
2008U+P.exe
PU302+305+303.exe
PU815+PU817.exe
PU2008+819+850.exe
pu2008D.exe

A little bit about the uproar in Arizona

There are some people who are up in arms about having to "show your papers" in Arizona. All drivers are already required to have their "papers" on them. It's called a driver's license.

Google Chrome

So I've been using the Google Chrome browser and have found some odd faults.
1. Behaves odd with Hotmail. If, after logging in, you go back to the login screen and hit refresh the main logged in page shows up.
2. Tabs that have spilled off to the side are unreachable with the mouse.
3. The minimize/restore/close buttons get covered by tabs and don't work even when they aren't covered.
4. After clicking the back button it doesn't always go to the place in the page you were on.

Stupid

Just because you did something stupid doesn't mean you have to tell everyone.
