  Good one, Burkie.

  Anything to cover up your failure as a GM, I guess.

• On the post: NYC Mayor Bloomberg Thinks Boston Bombing Renders The Constitution Obsolete

  

  droozilla ( profile ), 23 Apr, 2013 @ 11:34am

  As a NYC'r...

  I am completely embarrassed, and on behalf of the city, I apologize for us putting this douchebag anywhere near a position of power. This is a man who thinks he knows what's best, and will force it on you whether you like it or not.
  
  I don't know what's worse. The fact that he's mayor, or the fact he was elected THREE EFFING TIMES (and destroying term limits in NYC in the process, because he's special.)
  
  If this man ever runs for president (always the rumor...), do not walk, RUN and vote for whoever runs against him. Do not make the mistake the morons in my city have made.
  
  Otherwise the terrorists will truly have won.

• On the post: New Jersey Lawmaker Proposes Legislation To Ban Games With Mature Content From Public Places

  

  droozilla ( profile ), 16 Apr, 2013 @ 06:28am

  And what next?

  How about a law banning any movie above PG from being shown in public? Certainly we have to apply this same bias, after all, media is media, right? And we can't have kids watching graphic scenes of sex, violence, drug use, and the worst of them all, foul language! And of course by 'in public', I mean anywhere there's a possible screen (tv, movie theater, or maybe even a large wall that someone could potentially set up a projector near), that has any more than one person within 200 yards of it.
  
  In fact, just to be on the safe side, let's ban TVs, movie theaters, video rental stores (if they still exist), electronics stores, shopping malls, and of course... walls.
  
  According to this assemblywoman's logic, this makes PERFECT sense! I say we push for this at a federal, nay, global level, just to be safe.
  
  Think of the children.

• On the post: CISPA's Sponsor Can't Even Keep His Story Straight About NSA Having Access To Your Data

  

  droozilla ( profile ), 10 Apr, 2013 @ 02:00pm

  The sad truth.

  "Meanwhile, aren't reporters supposed to push back on bogus claims from politicians, rather than just restating them as fact?"
  
  Sure they are. But then they lose their jobs, and have any such reporting mysteriously find it's way into the round filing cabinet on the floor.

• On the post: Dumb Policy: Store Charges $5 Just To Look At Goods, To Keep People From Looking And Then Buying Online

  

  droozilla ( profile ), 27 Mar, 2013 @ 09:19am

  How to deal with this.

  Step 1: Go to location, stand outside, don't go in.
  Step 2: Take out internet connected device.
  Step 3: Shop.
  Step 4: Go inside store, show dummy the reciept of your purchase, explain that the stpuid $5 charge just cost you $x in sales.
  Step 5: Repeat as necessary until idiot realizes this is stupid and/or closes business.

  Yeah, because this worked so well before, and will obviously stop the Japanese people from downloading things.

• On the post: Redditor Points Out The Flaws In SimCity's Online-Only DRM, Gets Banned By EA For His Troubles [UPDATED]

  

  droozilla ( profile ), 29 Jan, 2013 @ 03:54pm

  We don't believe you, EA.

  Someone called EA out on their bullshit and they turtled after the backlash.
  
  "Oh, we'd never ever do something like that!"
  
  Sure you wouldn't.
  
  I don't care what crap comes spewing out of the mouths or fingers of any EA employee. They're full of shit and they got caught. Backpedal all you want, EA, we're still not buying your crap.

• On the post: How Unlocking Your Phone May Now Be A Crime: $500,000 Fines And 5 Years In Prison For First Offense

  

  droozilla ( profile ), 28 Jan, 2013 @ 11:08am

  "If people see this and respond, well no one is really going to get those types of penalties, my response is: Why is that acceptable?"
  
  Because sheep are stupid. They want to be controlled. They want to be led. And they'll be led right to the slaughter, where politicians & telcos have lamb chops on the menu.

  Words matter.

  "This is all about their lust for violence and the industry's lust for money. This is a billion-dollar industry. This is about their self-interest."
  
  Military-industrial complex much? Hollywood? Music industry? Telcos? Cable?
  
  Look in the mirror, you asshole.

  In b4 subsidy trolls

  Before any jerkwad brings up the $200 subsidy a carrier puts on a locked phone, let me just remind you ignorant trolls that they make that money back by getting you locked into a 2 year contract where they will rape your wallet.
  
  Thanks.
