I'm intrigued. In what way is porn fake? You mean they aren't really in love?
Well, I don't think that guy went to the house to deliver pizza or fix the plumbing...
What?

Well, it depends by what you mean by "delivering pizza" and "fixing the plumbing", if you see what I mean.

The Internet is made of 4 things: 1) pr0n, 2) cats, 3) ponies and 4) political insanity.  You do the math.

All of the middle bits.  However they are amorphous and the percentages can change at any time.  Wink
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

The percentage just fell today, thanks to this thread.  Good job, folks!

I think most of the internet has something to offer, and you can gleam wisdom from the most flawed crap. Youtube videos of anything, wikipedia which can tell you a little bit about everything, whether its skewed or not, news websites that lie but lay out the information in the end, school websites and archives, google books, entertaining blogs, prog archives....

In sum its great, maybe 30% of it is has nothing to redeem it.

And you got to admit, there's nothing false at all about going from expensive girly mags to unlimited HD video streamed for free.
