Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Awesome.

What's a mini Woolly Willy?

I support the idea of these boycotts, but not downloading things from iTunes or buying DVDs is just not practical for me, for various reasons.

You know, I would think downloading and watching stuff on the internet would be a good thing. AMPTP claims they don't make any money off the internet. If they made money during this strike on "new media" that would only bolster the writers' position.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Who says they have to report that money to the public? They'll just say it's savings from not paying people due to the strike.

I don't know that boycotting downloads will have much impact, but I'm disinclined to help the studios make money on new media during the strike.

Woot!

GF and I may be out there on Friday, too, as it's supposedly "Fan Day." Perhaps we'll see you guys, Allyson.

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.

Allyson, you are awesome like a thing full of awe.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I'm not sure where I stand on DVD purchases since the writers actually do get a cut of that (Mile High and some European rugby player DVDs are at the top of my To Buy list anyway), but I'll definitely refrain from buying anything over the internets until the strike is resolved.
