WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!
If your kids or students post a MySpace profile, they'll be abducted and brutally murdered with a spork!
Video games will reduce your mental and emotional innards to mush. And then brainwash you into killing bank tellers with a spork!
Pedophiles in chat rooms! Your child will be powerless to resist; they'll fly like moths to a flame, and some large bubba named Bub will molest your sweet young thing with a spork!/div>
I signed up for a Gevalia tea delivery trial (with a unique e-mail address used ONLY for that purpose), decided that it wasn't worth the money, and quit. Weeks later, I started getting 2-3 spams a day from their "partners."
People love kicking the popular kid. Sometimes it seems our whole society is built on schaudenfreude.
But, seriously, what a counterproductive thing to even contemplate sabataging AdWords. Do we all want to return to the days of blinking shock-the-monkey ads? I, for one, like text ads./div>
