cecilpl··on Man kicked off flight by pilot for wearing anti-TSA shirt
When I was 20 I had a pen in my pocket and it leaked all over my pants on a flight.

On the way back home, I was going through airport security and had another pen in my pocked. I picked it up from the tray, turned to my friend behind me, and without thinking said in a fairly loud voice, "I wonder if this one will explode on the plane".

Dead silence as every eye in the room turns to this young kid holding up a pen. I just stammered out an apology as my face went bright red and I shoved it back in my pocket.

I can't actually believe they let me on the plane.

Then I must say you're either not writing very good code, or you're writing C and calling it C++.
cecilpl··on The Zuckerberg Tax
If taxes weren't mandatory, I wouldn't pay them. Most people I know wouldn't either.

Then suddenly things like road systems, hospitals, schools, police, water systems, sewer systems, and courts would no longer be able to run.

Do you honestly believe that you could run a major developed country on donations? The Vatican doesn't count because it has a population of 800 and is run by the church.
