Troper Updates II, Part II

Hey Jeth.

The moon apparently had a shadow on it today. :| I didn't see.

Hey, all my fellow tropers. I am going to go to bed now, and then I will get up and go to work, and then from work I will head straight to the airport and fly to the frozen tundra of Illinois, so that I may be with my kin on that holiday that everyone's talking about.

I wish you all a wonderful Christmas. Enjoy your stupid hula hoops.

Good night, Blammy.

That's enough sesame seeds for me.

And good night, farewell, and godspeed to you, Meta Four.

Bye, Meta.

...But who will mod in your absence?

Sometimes, I stop looking at silver linings and stare at clouds. I do that too long, and I start crying. Playing Mario Picross, and cursing timezones. And Wisconsin.

SON OF A BITCH.

Clouds are now covering up the moon, it was clear an hour ago. I'd wait, but my mother is sleeping and will be pissed if she finds me awake.

@Lucky: Alright, look at it this way. Right now, the internet is largely neutral. Net neutrality. Unless you live in China or something, nothing is stopping you from going anywhere you want on the web.

What the ISPs and cable companies want to do is... not that. Proposed models include paying for access to certain sites or for more bandwidth or what have you. The more cash you have, the more internet access you get, basically.

The reason the government needs to do something is that, if not for laws, the situation goes:

Consumer: Uh, hey, I don't really like paying out the ass to use Google. Can't you... not do that?

Comcast: Ahahahahaha tough shit. Gimme yer wallet.

Merry Christmas, Meta Four.

@Lucky: They could charge companies for speed, e.g., Google pays your ISP a lot so you can get to Google nice and fast, but TV Tropes doesn't so it's slow as shit.

I curse Wisconsin most of the time. It's just so cursable.

Later Meta.

Ah, and since broadband providers won't be able to charge money by this bill, I should be fine, right?

Well, then again my laptop runs off a wireless connexion...hm.

So, why is Marioguy opposed to this bill? It sounds like a good thing, for the most part.

Good luck, Meta.

I want to yell at something. Or wreck my truck tomorrow.

Going to work.

No do not do that Tzetze.

@Lucky: The bill that's maybe going through says "yeah, you get net neutrality on wired internet... but wireless... hehehehe." Like the article said, lots of legal loopholes that could be exploited, poor behavior by the companies is "frowned upon", but not restricted, etc.

It's kind of restrictive that's why.

What does Burn My Dread even mean? That doesn't even mean anything.

Unrelated: I would like to punch Seth MacFarlane in the testicles.

I'd pay a hundred bucks for the opportunity, even.

Satisfying.

Satisfying.

Why?

@Marioguy: Short answer: he's a cunt.

Long answer: He's a pretentious, self-absorbed, irritating, overpaid, overexposed cunt.

FUCK YEAH BLACKMOON! LET'S SLASH HIS SHIT TOGETHER!

Fuck yeah, Schitzo.

Tze, join a Demolition Derby? I'll cheer you on and then do things to your badly wounded body!

Hecks yeah, 'sploit.

And hello to the rest of youse.

Anonymous User, why did you quote that...?

Hey, Grog.

Damn you, clouds!
