OMG! That's what you're doing in my dreams too, but ya'll are spitting firewood while you sing!

Can we split wood, or do we have to spit it. I'm worried about splinters.

Someone else's:
Ephemeralization offers an alternative explanation for the puzzling growth slowdown of the last decade. Every time the software industry displaces a special purpose device, our standard of living improves but measured GDP falls. If what you care about is government revenue, this point might not matter much—it’s hard to tax something if no one’s paying for it. But the real lesson here may not be that the American economy is stagnating, but rather that the government is bad at measuring improvements in our standard of living that come from the software industry.

Why o' why is it necessary to continually make updates to software that was working just fine before they started messing with it? The adage "if it ain't broke don't fix it" does not apply to software updates. And why does everyone seem to jump on these bandwagons?

"Political Correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end."

Because codewriters are a lot like engineers: they make money by making changes. Whether the changes are needed is beside the point.
My Android phone has something like 74 apps that 'need' an update. I've seen too many of them where the app comes out with good features and acceptable privacy settings and then they ad or increase advertising and cut back features to entice you to upgrade to the pay version. I check the "what's new" and the reviews and upgrade only if there's a compelling reason.

Who do these people are who think they have a right to food, and housing and jobs and such that allows them to live and stuff? Embryos?
I'm looking forward to VP wannabe Ryan's "Jobs for embryos in case of rape or danger to the health of the mother" proposal: "Well, yes, the mother may die, but with my plan, every discriminated-against, motherless embryo will have a job waiting - if it achieves birth from a dead mother and survives months on its own without a so-called 'safety net' to support it."
Romney would suggest adding a provision to his running mate's proposal that any mothers who may die in the process of delivering jobs-acceptable babies be granted postmortem nontransferable social security benefits.
