why 'or:'? how is that contrary to what I said?
also, that gradual mutation will take place much faster in the 21st century.

^ the second part of that i sort of agree with (history moves faster these days)

he bro you're the one whining about my 'wall of text' aka a link to a relevant article. perhaps you should calm down...

Here, I'll dumb it down for you though... Apple engages in horrible labour practices.

pro tip: as if post flames aren't retarded enough, don't make fun of someone's posting habits when you have more posts than them.

lol my post count isn't accurate. I won several thousand years ago betting on the world cup here. Fact remains that I post a couple times a day maybe and you post 5-10 times in every thread. time to get a life maybe?

edit: me 11 posts in the last week. you 14 posts today.

i pity and will pray for you
