Oh, smacked in the noggin with a 2x4 wrapped in velvet. Yeah, that's what it felt like.

How is it not already?

This is what I'm saying.

I would then have to kill us.

Has Sue's back. Hands her extra-strength ear plugs and a flame thrower.

Although if that abomination actually played everytime b.org came up, I'm thinking nuking from space would be the only safe option.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I've been tickled pink by the Luxist blog.

I like how this supposed nouveau riche blog has "MAKE YOUR OWN ZWINKY" ads.

It's not the song I mind, Frank. It's the whole principal of websites that spontaneously make noise when you land on them.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

God, me too. Especially when I'm at work!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Heh. Just try and read the comments--I swear most of those people wouldn't be able to work out how to make a Zwinky.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

That's why I turn my speakers off at work. I miss the occasional email, but....

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

My HMO now has a program where you can access test results online, make appointments, access certain parts of your health record, blah blah.

So I registered, and they send a password through the mail. Like, in 3 to 7 days, I shall receive my password through US Mail.

Seriously? What's the point? Just let me choose my friggin password!

I imagine it's an extra level of security. What with strict laws about patient confidentiality... you know, how you can't stand near the pharmacy counter when someone else is getting their drugs.

It makes sure that only someone at your home address (or who's poaching you in multiple media) can get your password. The HIPAA and all that are no joke.
