Let the logs state that I declare I have never been a pirate a day in my life, I don't own a boat nor do I know what torrenting is

    Torrenting? Like a torrent of hellfire?! Which is where you'll go if you pirate anything made by a multi-hundred-billion dollar corporation?

    How are the executives at AT&T, Comcast, Disney and Viacom supposed to pay for their diamond-dusted lambos if we pirate things?!

    Did you know that AT&T bought time warner? How is AT&T supposed to pay off that purchase if a tiny percentage of their products are pirated?!

    I only ever claimed I pirated things to fit in...peer pressure! LOOK IT UP!
