I've been a broadcaster, primarily in radio, since I was a teenager, more years ago than I care to admit, and I nominate paid television and paid radio as the worst inventions of all time.
I remember back in the 1950's they used to talk about pay TV, and now we have it. It was going to be commercial-free. Well, I'm paying 65 bucks a month for Dish Network, and guess what? I still have commercials, some of which do have some entertainment value but many don't.
And now--goody, goody--we can have subscriber radio.
Boo, hiss, thumbs down. And what disgusts me is that I'm paying for satellite TV. I hope I can successfully resist satellite radio.

Myspace
It is a website filled with an insane amount of viruses and spyware, and is the biggest place for online predators in the world.
Disney World used to be the leading place where children got abducted, now it is myspace.

High School english class curriculum. you learn absolutely nothing, but you pass the time, wasting your tuition pay when you could be productive.
i mean, what do you learn, doing the same thing all year long? read a boring book, write about it. read another boring book, write about it. on and on, all the while, learning nothing!!
and people ask why young people aren't smart anymore. knock knock! it's because of English class
oh yeah- why do those of us who already know the language still have to take it???
