Ha. The guys of Linden Labs are weird. They dont know that the fan-made copyright violator pr0n its supposed to be hidden in 4chan? Nooo, they put it right in the middle of a mainstream game and expect that the companys dont rain sues into them.

And double HA for the guys at Taser International. Sorry you dont own the word Taser and much less all the Tasers just because is in your company’s name.

Maybe if i say Taser enough times i will be sued too. Who knows? (I would make the experiment, but it would be trolling).

Protip: When your product starts sucking, you DO NOT make everybody look at you. You keep quiet and fix it.

-Sigh- for the fact that stupidity always seems the rule rather than the exeption

Surprising and new, no. Amusing, yes.

Nope, no surprise, the reality that there are many dumb people alive and sadly there is no such requirement as “you can’t be dumb as a lawyer”.

I’d like to see an “Axe vs. Taser” MMOGRPG though.

So, Second Life is a fetishist heaven, and a company is doing a stupid demand for distracting people of the fact that their product is sucking.

Anybody find this surprising, or even new???

J. : That tractor is fucking awesome.

Seriously. On a scale of 1 to Tractor, that thing goes right off the dial. It's even more awesomer than the Porsche tractor I spotted on a ski trip recently.

I’d write more myself but I’m currently convulsing uncontrollably and wetting myself.

And this is better than working for NCSoft, right? @J. Sadly, the tractor got nerfed to 4 tires after the EPA realized how overpowered 8 were.

Ya, I’m done with society. Ted is letting me rent out his shack. I don’t plan on mailing anything…yet.

“Don’t Tase me, Ho!”

What a wonderful idea Taser had to be doing this, just when the safety of their gun is being questioned left and right.

Whenever there’s a study demonstrating the things aren’t safe, here they always come saying the study is flawed, always some sort of knee-jerk reaction that really doesn’t care if the study is valid or not.

But what really annoys me is that law-enforcement types and other law-and-order nuts always jump to Taser’s defense.

And now this.

I don’t care about Second Life, but I’m tired as hell of Taser International.

You know what I’d love to see in the brief? “We can’t allow the Taser to be used in this manner, for it is not safe in such a context.” Then I’d be happy.
