: ... about the rollover, which *is* actually cool, without pretending, lying or ignoring the truth and pretending that those of us who have a clue in our heads are "incredibly" anal? No, it's not anal AT FUCKING ALL! It's simply the urge to be correct rather than completely wrong.
: How people purposely ignore obvious facts and insist on being ignorantly is absolutely beyond me, but I find it a rather pitiful and sickening fact about our society that so many people do.
: So, now, those of us with brains larger than a goddamn peanut can't enjoy what could and should be an exciting event without having to *endure* a bunch of fuckheads who insist on devalueing the significance by stating that it's different than it is.
...you know all the one's who get pissed off when you tell them it's not the millenium until next year are just going to be celebrating it again then.
