This is how I read this:

I was not going to play MoP because of GW2. But in a moment of weakness I bought it because I knew my kid would like it. So I ended up putting GW2 aside for a bit and playing it.

Hrmm. Funkysaurus might make for a great new IO9 handle...

So they got exactly what they wanted.

Hancock.

Unrelated stat used to illustrate how little we spend on NASA. Like the story a while back about how the military spends more on A/C than NASA has in it's entire budget.

I agree. But I was using it to illustrate the point of something that is not the best quality but still very popular. Her writing is not terrible but it is not particularly good either. Despite that she remains very successful and popular, so more power to her.

It's a catchy song. It has a funny video. Not sure what more one could ask for in a music video. It's not going to win any awards but it is what it is. And, frankly, pretty well done in comparison to some videos. Not sure why it garners so much hate; is it so bad that people like to take a minute to watch a…
