I'm judging you.

I often judge people by the cars they drive. There, I said it. I'm a terrible person, I shouldn't judge a book by its cover, blah, blah, blah.

Well, I'm glad to let people judge me by my car. As far as I know, it has the youngest average buyer of any car sold in America (29 years old). In addition, I can now prove that IS drivers are also extremely intelligent. Suck it, Bill.

Get Firefox or Opera; both are excellent, Internetastic (did I really just say that??), multi-platform web browsers...not to mention the fact that they're feature-rich and standards-compliant.

pr0n @ Carnegie Mellon

Today, a friend from high school pointed out a story (and video clip on the same page) he'd seen about CMU showing porn in the University Center (aka the UC, our student union-type place). The UC has an auditorium that, aside from its usual academic purposes, shows movies several nights a week. On occasion, usually once a semester, the Sunday night movie is "TBA".

During a TBA, the moviegoers start by removing their clothes and making demeaning comments about others' genitalia. The pr0n usually gets everyone so excited that, within minutes, people are going all caveman, beating others unconscious with clubs to more easily take advantage of them. Just in case the massive orgy isn't enough to ensure the onset of an STD plague, we bring bottles of germ-infested spooge to squirt on each other!!!1!oneone!

Seriously, people, what's the big fucking deal? If I won't object when some Michael Moore propaganda film is shown, you should hold your tongue about some people getting naked[1] and laid[2] on a big ol' movie screen[3]. Capiche?
