I OFFICIALLY HATE THE INTERNET

Thanks to the internet, I unknowingly found out the BIG SURPRISE in HArry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.

I go to a site, and THERE IT IS IN ALL CAPS!!!

I hate you, internet.

Bailey and I argue about that very issue all the time... I think sites should moderate all that type of stuff...

am i the only one that can control what my eyes read and what they dont?

if you dont want to look at and or read something about a book that you were planning on reading, a movie that you were planning on seeing, or a game you were planning on playing... then use your head and dont go snooping around or you will find it very easily as adeolu found out.

and you started getting into all out control of the media evan. when the gov't starts saying what people can and cannot say is when any kind of freedom is lost. when someone has the possibility of harming someone physically with their words is the only time in which anyone of any kind of external source should step in (the "fire" inside of a crowded theater). but to take a jay z lyric for a minute, "if you don't like the lyrics, you can press fast forward." use common sense and understand that if somebody really wanted to take the time to moderate a site for content or spoilers, then they would. but in the world of the internet, people are mean and you have to deal with it unless you plan on going and moderating the overwhelming world that is the internet.

bring it if you want to debate more.

theres this punk band from san diego call Cheap Sex and in a song called raped by the FCC it reads, when written out, "they try to control what i hear and what i say." and the last lyrics is "if you dont like it turn it off."

so, after all of that, i am with you bailey.

well, this wasn't a site i was snooping at!

I just went to YTMND, and it was on the front page as the title of one of the most viewed posts.

that's why i was so pissed when i read it. there was no warning.

it's been brought.

well if you want to argue that point, then you're saying that shows like sesame street can start posting stuff like "alcohol is yummmy! in about 10 years you're going to get pregnant! your mommy and daddy didn't really want you!!" on their website and no one could say anything because it's on the internet and no one can restrain what they write. sometimes people don't MEAN to read things, it's just there and it was no one's fault except the jerko's that pu it there

and also, if you're simply looking for a plot summary and something is written in bold letters then it's usually hard to just look away. it's just beyond human nature to stop looking at something in the middle of looking at it. it's like a car accident, we know it's ridiculous and we're not going to get anything out of it, but we slow down the car and look to see what happened anyway.
