Well, I was think the lot of them are freaks.
I was offended to see a screen capture compared to rape. I'm sorry, I know
people take their big business seriously, but acting like a typical act of
the rumor mill just ended the world is ridiculous.
Oh well, kids will be kids. They'll all beat their chests at each other
and shed tears and intimidate each other into agreeing that, yes, we are
all highly offended by something that probably has less ramification on
your life than being cut off in traffic does. I mean, you can die if your
speeding car slams into them. You can, like, see that the next photoshop
has menus at the top like 6 did from a screenshot--affear!. Of course,
they're probably not that offended when they cut someone off. Only if it's
done to them. ;)
And since I don't want to have loud noises made at me, I'm not mailing this
on the list. Didn't want you to feel like the only voice of reason around
here, though.
