Stupid Guest Tricks

Guys, just add him to your ignore lists. He's trolling us, and this is exactly the reaction he wants. Don't give him the satisfaction. Just don't engage him, let him keep digging himself deeper, and he'll either give up, or be permabanned soon enough.

Did you look under "Disney Characters J-Z"?

If you had, you'd have found: :pegasus:

What do you think goes up on the roof they meet beneath? Hence the saying, "Frisbeetarians are above it all."

Whoops! I looked really hard, too!
It is nice, but I still like the Flying Bongo :D:
Besides, I read in my Mythology Books that Pegasus was the result of a Fling between Poseidon and Medusa, and Sprang from her neck when Perseus decapitated her!
My Zoology experience tells me he may not be a REAL Horse, either..... :p:

Remind yourself of that if you ever let someone borrow your OS disk. (Oh wait you would NEVER DO THAT because then the devil would come and suck your soul out of your ears. and stick a pitch fork up you....).

Oh don't worry PatchOBlack's reply showed me EXACTLY the mentality of the people posting here.

This is a first. Never, ever added anyone to an ignore list on any forum, which shows what tolerance I have for stupidity -- until now. Congrats!

I'd say anything above 16 hands is a high horse.

For the archaically inclined, that equates to roughly 3.556 cubits.

And yet, you still keep coming back. One is given to wonder, "Why?"

Mr. D. wrote:So when someone buys a MP3 file, then they want to let me borrow it, they email it to me, or even if they put that file on a disk, flash drive ect. There is not way to let someone "borrow" a file without it being a copy. Thus eliminating the "that is piracy, a form of theft" argument.

The copyright violation (aka "piracy") of a data file isn't created by making a copy. It's created by making two copies and allowing them to be used them simultaneously.

Besides, in most cases, you cannot "buy" an MP3 file. All you can do is buy a license to *use* the file. Small difference for the casual consumer; great difference for copyright law.

There's a lot of FUD going around about this topic, most of it coming from the RIAA. If you really want to know about copyright restrictions, speak with a publisher or a librarian -- someone who's an expert in this field and has no conflict of interest.
