Yea, I cause despair and destroy dreams. Yea, all of your spare time are belong to us."Fredjikrang wrote:Yo,ure teh internet? O,oLaser Jock wrote:Yay, I cause despair and destroy dreams...
Some interpret this to apply to the internet at large. Others take a more liberal approach and claim that it only applies to MySpace, Facebook, and other ostensibly social networks. Some more conservative scholars claim that it can be successfully applied to all electronic devices since the radio. Others still claim that the great beast has yet to show its head.
