What is love?!

Microsoft has made us less productive by releasing bug ridden programs and unstable operating systems. The best joke I read was on a friend's away message: The day that Microsoft releases a product that doesn't suck is when it makes a vaccuum cleaner! This was from a Microsoftie. Although Microsoft wasn't defanged, it has became synonymous with crappy products. What if the company makes great products, slowly but deliberately are taking over our lives, do we still need to fear it? Despite Google's do no evil motto, I think it's quite dangerous a company has gathered so much data about us and is controlling so many aspects of our lives.

The ultimate evil is the idea of love. It's marketted, branded, and often something we all should seek and strive. This came up in a discussion about this video:



We were talking about that special something, that sparkles, that makes a relationship worthwhile. If it was a drug, it makes us miss it in its absence, reminisce about those precious moments. Do we need that obsessive thinking pattern in order to qualify the relationship as being in love? How long can we sustain that emotional fire?!

With internet nowadays, we all can indulge in our collective perversions, in the privacy of our LCD screen(s) and our eyeballs. There are plenty of underground communities that turns a simple indulgence into a full fledge fetish. I confess I check this sick humor site on a regular basis. There are also amazing stuff I've found like the following, I'm not sure who is parodying whom!
