In addition, when buyers received negative Feedback, they reduced their activity in the marketplace, which in-turn harmed sellers."
    Which reduces the feedback system to an activity count of sorts - much like the KB rep system.... except we get -ve rep too...

    Shit at school, my reports used to say thing like...

    These days I reckon I would be a model student...

    Yes, life is a little backward... we need to have the carefree freedom at the end when we're closer to knowing it all, not at the start when we only think we do.

    That beckons the question whether we would indeed get any closer to knowing it all if we didn't have the freedom to explore it...

    But yeah, it sucks that we're not very likely to be able to afford that nice 911 turbo until we're quite a bit older. I sometimes suspect that the mid-life crisis is more about actually having the funds and some of the freedom to pursue those dreams we couldn't afford when we were younger, as opposed to any physiological change.
    It is preferential to refrain from the utilisation of grandiose verbiage in the circumstance that your intellectualisation can be expressed using comparatively simplistic lexicological entities. (...such as the word fuck.)

    What a load of dried up camel dung...hang on, that's actually negative towards camels: at least their dried up faeces have a use in the building of accomodation for the nomads.

    Anyway...once again, I feel humanity is sinking into a massively miasmic cesspool of worthlessness and I wonder as to what kind of legacy we are leaving our offsprings.

    Gawd, this is so farking depressing!
