irrelevance is funnier than relevance

....Star Trek replicators in an article about changing ideas on intellectual property and copyright. In the course of research for various classes this semester, I've also found a completely deadpan article about internet access for domestic animals with that "on the internet, no one knows you're a dog" cartoon as its epigraph, and another article casting the Microsoft Word paperclip in a remake of My Cousin Vinnie.

It's a lot more interesting than being an English major ever was.

Well, the whole point of the article was how much computer help tends to suck, walking people through things without teaching them what they're doing, so... yes.
