what the crap?

[leujin]

oh yeah, and my mom is amusingly paranoid:

You could fall in love with me, you know.: I just want you to know that I know that you are there (H)

Sticking feathers up your butt does not make you a chicken: um... yay?

You could fall in love with me, you know.: Yeah, so this Internet stuff...well, think about it. I was always afraid of it, right? Because THEY could get into your life: your home, your privacy. Well, so what do you know: They CAN get into your finances, your internet surfing and draw conclusions about you from what sites you visit, and I have just shown you how I can invade your private Saturday evening by dropping in on you.

Sticking feathers up your butt does not make you a chicken: um... right.

Sticking feathers up your butt does not make you a chicken: it's sunday morning now, silly.

You could fall in love with me, you know.: I bet THEY can eavesdrop on online chatting quite easily. So, it's scary. I still believe the government has the capability on tapping any computer they want. And through the computer, they could even eavesdrop on your home and send signals and stuff. I am NOT silly.

You could fall in love with me, you know.: and happy Sunday morning

Sticking feathers up your butt does not make you a chicken: i don't care if they tap into my conversations. my life isn't that interesting

Sticking feathers up your butt does not make you a chicken: all i ever do is send links to my friends and talk about cheese

You could fall in love with me, you know.: so just be aware that I know about them and I have warned you

You could fall in love with me, you know.: Yeah, but someday you will care when you find out that they know how you spend your money and who your friends are and whether you have ever said something even remotely "subversive" even in jest

Sticking feathers up your butt does not make you a chicken: uh huh

Sticking feathers up your butt does not make you a chicken: let's test your theory: I hate america. let's go kill bush!

You could fall in love with me, you know.: you've never had a Q clearance run on you. It is very invasive and very unpleasant. and yeah, you can say that stuff legally because of the first amendment, but THEY will find a way to use it against you if they want to

Sticking feathers up your butt does not make you a chicken: meh. whatever.

You could fall in love with me, you know.: for example: your social security number is your business, but right there on the security clearance, it says, you do not have to give us your social security number. However, if you do not, we can not process your clearance.

Sticking feathers up your butt does not make you a chicken: interesting

You could fall in love with me, you know.: In other words, they don't threaten or coerce openly, but they imply very nicely that you have to do it. Of course, you don't HAVE to work here...
You could fall in love with me, you know.: anyway, I'm paranoid because I know for sure they are going to be out to get me if they have a reason

Sticking feathers up your butt does not make you a chicken: right

You could fall in love with me, you know.: If I'm nobody, like I am right now, they probably don't care, but I'm willing to bet that they randomly check in on citizens through the internet, among other ways, looking for potential "threats" (read here between the lines the words Homeland Security and Patriot Act)

Sticking feathers up your butt does not make you a chicken: right.

You could fall in love with me, you know.: nobody believed what's -er- name in Terminator 2 either, but at least her SON did!

It started to degrade after she said THAT. I'm not saying that it's not possible, it just kind of entertains me how my mom has developed her whole conspiarcy theory. She firmly believed that if you put your computer too close to a phone line that the government could hack into your files... then I told her about the internet. This was like 5 years ago, but still...
