1. LOL! Well, no one can say DUers march in lockstep, that's for sure!
Thanks for the laugh, I noticed the juxtaposition of those two threads as well and thought it was quite funny but your screen capture with the donation thread as well makes it perfect!

29. It's from Micro$oft for one ting.
Mozilla Firefox, which is free and open-source, has a hell of a lot more useful features and free add-ons and a lot less bugs.

12. Aint it the truth
Well, we're all pretty loud in our opinions, as I think we all should be. The only DU that fails is the one that no one posts to, anymore.

(insert random object here)! Can't we all just get along, and stuff? All I ever see here is people arguing! We gotta argue about this, we gotta argue about that. We can't agree on a darn thing! Then some people have to go and leave, complaining that we argue too much. What in the world would you expect from a political discussion/thrash forum? That's the whole freakin' point, to argue about stuff and...

wait a minute, what was I saying?
