I’ve heard lots of stories about Dungeons and Dragons type games helping people become more able to function in social situations.

Also, I HATE how so many of these academic papers that I want to read are stuck behind these fucking gatekeeper sites that charge a ridiculous $29.00 for a single article. I mean, really; who’s going to pay that FOR A SINGLE FUCKING DOWNLOAD? You can buy a hardcover book for less that that, and the marginal cost of a download is practically zero! I don’t normally use profanity, but sites like JSTOR and Blackwell Synergy are worse than useless for anyone who doesn’t live at a university, and they make me angry.

This is why we need copyright reform. If I’m convicted of shoplifting a CD from a retail store, I face lighter penalties than if I make an illegal copy of that same CD by downloading the files.
