Funny though that Dr. Dre is now the fount of symbolic oppression.

Straight outta privilege

Btw, is it just me or does the Washington Times site look like crap with all the advertisements everywhere?

It's run by Yi's family.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

Were the Dartmouth library thugs students or outside agitatahs?

If they were students it will be interesting to see what, if any, disciplinary action the university takes.

Keep it in mind next time I buy headphones. I tend to go through them pretty often.

Why?  Headphones last many years.

It doesn't say but you sort of get the impression they were outside agitatahs.

Not the way I use them.

:blink: I am not aware of any way to use headphones that reduce their lifespan.  Unless you soak them in water or hit them against walls.  I expect my headphones to last many, many years.

I wear them when I do housework and exercise and the like. They wear out physically.

Or step on them. They still function, but they don't sit in your ears unless you hold them there.
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

Or leave them in the bottom of your messenger bag and have them beat to shit over a few days.
