In the UK its legal to rip music and movies for your own use, is it really illegal if you already own the movie? Obviously its a small case just wondered what peoples thoughts were on it

Let me just say I loved House of Leaves. One of my favorites of all time, actually the Whalestoe letters book collecting all of Johnny and his mothers letters is really my favorite but great book.

Yes, but he generally only puts 2-3 words per page these days..

Gotta love ‘er and love that she used an inclusive ‘we’. Cuz really, she ain’t wrong.

This is an entirely true story.

So one time, my dad was in a dog park in DC, and his dog Pete starts humping another dog. The owner of the other dog came over and kicked Pete to get him off of the other dog. My dad, understandably, was like, “WTF dickhead, don’t kick my dog,” and the owner of the other dog responded…

Rich people don't have an excuse to be fat, they can afford healthy food and a trainer. She's being willfully fat.

I remember Gizmodo back in the day when it wasn't full of ads and posts that haven't been spellchecked or shot directly to the top of the page after the final sentence. Also some research was done back then too before posting. Now it's all about copy/paste as fast as you can.
