Australia is so good at destroying any potential prospects for itself that even the social media ban is going to curb our natural shitposting skills. We're gold medal winners at being weird units online and you're locking kids out of the gym

Engraved with names like Minecraft Notch
And Brian Fargo and FourZeroTwo, yeah
But though it promised games for free
And mobile ports on your TV
It's a cold and it's a broken Founders' Ouya

We don't talk enough about how good it feels to eat rubbish food on a long trip. It doesn't even have to be fresh. That bucket of chips that's been sitting in the Bain Marie all morning hits different out the other side of Geelong

It's so funny that in retrospect Sony BMG torched everything and out of everyone listed here NATASHA BEDINGFIELD was probably the only one in danger of significant piracy. Can't imagine the seeds for The Best Of Montgomery Gentry were poppin' with the 15 year olds on LimeWire
Happy 20th anniversary to the Sony BMG copy protection rootkit scandal, in which the company secretly installed software to hide DRM technology on CD buyers’ PCs. XCP was a security risk that led to public outcry, class action lawsuits, and, 20 years ago today, a recall of dozens of album titles.

When you were a kid did you ever put all your favourite soft drinks together in one glass thinking it would make The Best Drink but it turned out to be just a big glass of sugar water that didn't taste like anything
