asshole tv networks

Why do TV networks have to prove that they're cock suckers every time you turn around? The networks have started marking shows as going for 61 minutes so that Tivo (and all the other PVR's out there) can't record another show on a different channel at the end of the current show. What a bunch of dicks. I've been running into this left and right with the show "Lost". It runs 61 minutes so that I can't record "West Wing" or "Jack and Bobby" directly afterwards.

I thought it was just my piece of shit PVR that was the problem until I did a couple of google searches and quickly figured out that the problem is rampant and the networks are in fact cock suckers.

Hey Network managers: Eat a dick.

This is so f'd up it's brilliant

This article describes a site where you can log on, aim a rifle remotely, and use it to kill stuff which will then be shipped to your door. How weird is that? It's really a neat idea to be able to shoot a rifle over the web - I think that's pretty damn cool. Using that rifle to shoot and *maybe* kill something is a little different.
