I had the opposite experience. Once I started working full time after college, I felt like I had SO MUCH FREE TIME!

I did have a part-time job during college, though. That might have skewed things for me.

I wanted to like the game, but one game where the other players adopted the ‘backstabbing’ style ruined it for me.

I was sad when AOL started sending demo CDs instead of the floppy disks :(

Ugh, that title.

We all have caturday!

Yeah, that’s fair, especially in software work.

life isn’t fair

It’s not as pithy, but I think “Just because you didn’t get your way, doesn’t mean it’s unfair” would be a better sentiment for adults to tell children.

Or “I don’t fucking care what happened, I just don’t want to hear you whine about it”. Hardly an acceptable way to talk to children, but I think it’s what adults in my life meant when I was a child.

If it weren’t what it is, well, it wouldn’t be anything at all, would it?

Thanks :D

So you’re saying copyright infringement is on par with speeding or parking past the meter’s end? Eh, fair enough.

If you do something illegal, you should be arrested.

Copyright infringement lawsuits are a far cry from bomb threats or the like.

Eh, sometimes “No, thank you” is also appropriate.

Damn, I would have simply blocked the troll long before this! You have the patience of a saint.
