Says a lot about society, doesn't it ?

Yep, sex is wrong and kinky sex is satanic. Violence is a-okay though.

Violence is bad, but sending people to the mental hospital is A-OK. ;D

Don't just assume that you are right. Verify with the best tools available and if you are wrong, change your mind and you will become right.

NSA Targets World of Warcraft for Terror Links (not to mention various other games)

e.g. they're using tax dollars for their agents to play video games

Ah, but at leas they aren't sending them to Las Vegas to the tune of $750,000 or whatever that other government agency did. right?

Aren't the people we are concerned about basically Luddites? Well sure the guys on top probably have everything they could want, but the ones pushing the plunger are dirt poor and have nothing, except the dream of 72 virgins.

I can't wait until I see Government Girls Gone Wild out on video real soon.

Maybe we should see who is NSA in WoW and out them? And all other MMO games as well.

I was reading the Guardian's article on this, and one of the funniest (to me) user comments was simply, "The Spy Who Ganked Me."
It took an hour to write; I figured it'd take an hour to read.

Isn't it "gakked me"? Or if you like J-pop, Gackt me?

Jay you make me sad.  If you had been an MMORPG player at any point you would have got the reference.

Well I guess it's been a while now, it was before bustin' a cap in yo' ass came about, but sometimes you would gakk someone in a hit job. Gank, sounds like more Engrish.

Apparently it's short for 'gang killing'.  At least that's what Urban Dictionary tells me.  I think I remember using the word in the 80s, so it's hardly a new word.

No, it's a global thing, actually. I used to hear it all the time in Eve Online.

White House to preserve controversial policy on NSA, Cyber Command leadership

Did anyone really expect the White House to just give NSA a call and tell them to stop? The NSA collects dirt. You don't fuck with people that collects dirt. Why do you think J. Edgar Hoover was in office for so long?

It's supposed to collect dirt of foreign sources, not Americans, that's what the FBI is for. BUt yeah, the FBI is supposed to do things that will stand up in a court of law, which isn't what the NSA does. No, you use that dirt to fill out your hit lists. Make people disappear.

NSA phone surveillance is 'likely unconstitutional,' judge rules

And the meeting between Obama and the tech giants was turned into a PR ploy for Obamacare, when the techies showed up to talk about the undue surveillance. A good ol' fuck you I'm the president, you'll keep supporting me in my agenda or we will make you sorry you were ever born!
