I may be the only person on the planet but...

Does this really deserve the 'Dark Side' tag? If you're fighting for your right to speak freely to the world, and your government is doing it's best to stop you... Well, I'm pretty sure that you're the one wearing the white hat.

@evilegg: You have described, to a T, a friendship that I recently gave up on.

You absolutely have to view it as a gift. I've also learned to be more picky about which friends I loan money to.

@chiieddy: Do you work for the government? Because I'm a contracter, and our customers disappear from December 20th to January 7th.

@tobedetermined: I had a boss like that. This was one of the few times it was good to have more than one boss. When one decided we weren't showing enough dedication, we went to the other one, threatened to go to another section (that desperately wanted us), and got our vacations approved.

@redqueenmeg: I hope you and your spouse made up for it later!

@odinbearded: Even when I worked as an underpaid receptionist at a dinky company, I got two weeks a year. Accounting considered it their cheapest benefit. Sure, they paid you for days you weren't there, but it wasn't like they had to hire someone else to do your work. It got done before you left, after you got back,…

@volvieras: It still might not save you. A manufacturer or service provider might STILL decide to withhold updates, either because they want to charge for them, or because they want you to buy a brand new phone with the latest updates.

I'm actually surprised that this made it to the blogosphere as anything more than "Look at what this idiot thought!" Even back in the young days of email, I was warned that work emails belonged to WORK. If you wanted to send private emails, you should do it with a private email address.

@xxdesmus: I use this on my Android, along with the Yelp app. I find that it's good at plugging the holes sometimes left by Yelp... or getting a second opinion.

@Wafflemao: Okay, fine.

Dear Lifehacker:

@HeartBurnKid: Agent of R.O.A.C.H.: It already runs on Roku, which is what I have (Woot made me an offer I couldn't refuse). I've been getting blisters on my rear from fence sitting since they did that.

Dear Hulu: you know when I said I wouldn't get Hulu Plus until you lowered it to five bucks a month? I am so seriously reconsidering that, now...

There is one feature that would greatly enhance my searching:

@mike_311: I was going to chide you and remind you that it's fruit punch, but then realized you were making a clever pun. Good show, sir.
