Examples

“OK, I'm pissed. Those record⟳ company bastiches who decide⟳ what songs go on what albums and cds. The Live⟳ After Death cd would be awsome if the mother fuckers at capitol would have⟳ left all of the songs on it.”

“>> Oh dear god! That's strictly geek work⟳... and you know⟳ it! I can't argue⟳, but in todays market, moderately well-paid geek work⟳ is better than low paid geek work⟳. At least I have⟳ a voice, and that's my point⟳. The deluded bastiches actually read⟳ what I write⟳, and sometimes act accordingly.”

“> Most of the changes in the world happen⟳ because someone thinks of an idea and wants to make⟳ money out of it. No, that's how those "cottage industries", to use⟳ your words, get⟳ started. The crap begins when some bastich in a suit⟳ sees that the small entrepreneur is making money, and wants in on the deal⟳: "I see⟳ your idea is working, and I want⟳ a piece of it, so I'll play⟳ organizer for you in exchange⟳ for the lion's share⟳ of the profits. Unless, of course, you WANT⟳ to stay⟳ small forever - we can make⟳ sure you stay⟳ THAT way, too." The person who actually "thought of the idea" in the first place⟳ eventually becomes inconsequential in terms of the money-making engine.”

“>Most mailing lists send⟳ a letter to the person's email asking for verification that they signed up, so in other words it's a waste⟳ of time. Actually, there are a handful that don't. Like⟳ the PrOn ones. SOme bastich obviously subscribed ME to a few, and I'm inundated with spam..”
