But, please, please , PLEASE stop putting that FBI warning at the start of my DVDs. I'm not going to steal anything. At least put it at the end of the movie so I don't have to be called a thief everytime I put it in the player.....PLEASE stop making threats. PLEASE..

For the 'true' definition of irony, I always go back to Bender (Futurama, The Devil's Hands are Idle Playthings): "The use of words expressing something other than their literal intention; now that.. is.. irony." Sarcasm, then, is not separate from irony -- it's a form of irony with malicious or 'snarky' intent.<br><br>Then there's the 'common' definition of irony -- whether tragic irony, epitomised in Alanis Morissette's song, or "you-deserved-that" irony, as we see here.<br><br>Different again is 'hipster irony': wearing an old band shirt and over-sized sun-glasses because you -know- it's in bad taste, but we won't go into that..<br><br>/rant :)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Matthew]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 17th 2010 5:39AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Warner Bros.

MPV says it has been trying to get Warners to pay for use of the technology since it allegedly began incorporating the invention in prints throughout Europe in 2004."<br><br>thats from the article that is quoted as the source of this story, Sooo, the issue isnt about in the US or Europe since the product was released in both countries, it really doesnt matter where they had their copyright.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[danielwetteroff]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 9th 2010 11:57AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Warner Bros.

They are greedy pigs. They even make ebay remove Wizard of Oz craft items such as jewelry. Can you imagine. They own the Wizard of Oz. Nobody can even make a piece of jewelry with the Wicked Witch or anything from The Wizard of Oz. Along with just about everything else out there from years ago. Casper the ghost...Flintstones. Real greedy when it comes to even the little people just bringing back great memories from the past. I hope they get theirs!! They deserve it!!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[kfrongo]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 26th 2010 5:32PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Warner Bros.
