Only dorks use Limewire.

Wannabe's, really.

"Ooooh! Look at me, I'm being a rebel and downloading material illegally! Look! It's the entire album, in a tiny 30K archive! Compression techn.... Oh. Crap."

I know a few people who use it all the time for all their questionable acquisitions- they insist on downloading those 30K files that are supposedly "Super compressed"... And actually think I'll help them more then once. Nope. You only get one. I told you last time!

          I guess I'm completely out of the loop because I don't even know HOW to download illegal software. Reading this thread amazes me because everyone else seems to know. Had I known how to do this in the past, I could have saved a lot of money.

          Although it's gone in a completely different direction then expected!  ;D

          Heck, you can stick any "A is for B" type of query in google. I'd insert a humourous example here, but I can't come up with anything humourous, really. best I can think of being "tylenol is for Parents" or "AV cables are for video"... the latter of which is really more of a statement then an expression of opinion.

          There have been portable mac computers since... since... the Mac Portable.

          In fact, I believe that is the method I used to find the pictures in my Pictures\XXX\Goats\ folder.

          that is so confusing... She's a goat, and yet at the same time can take off her skin? and become beautiful? Goats aren't exactly bueatiful, and I'd imagine they wouldn't exactly be without their skin. So one can only assume that the woman somehow gave birth to a girl in a goat costume.
