I do too, but I think they turn into something different from what was originally written somwhere between the screen and my brain:
EULA for Blinkensoft WidgetThingy QX v9.6.Alpha.RC3: This EULA (End User Licence Argument) dictates what you owe to us in order to use this software. Our lawyers are better than yours, so you better do it or we'll send the boys over with the rubber hose. We assert that we bear no responsibility for any death, maiming, or injury caused as a result of you trying to get the shrinkwrap off, the box open, or any other handling of the product, even though the packaging was constructed from cyanide, arsenic, barbed-wire, and plastic recycled from Happy Meal toys banned due to the toxic chemicals used to colour them. We assert ownership of your genetic structure and any derivative works thereof. We assert that you will come to our offices in Tuvalu once a month, and clean our cars, windows, and toilets, and you're paying the airfare to get here, bucko. We assert that you are a pudding-head. We assert that this software will render you completely unable to do any work, and we'll set your home-website to any indecent material as we see fit. We assert that we may change this EULA at any time if we think of any other things we want, like a pony. We assert that you will be our pony.-- Ian Darling "The moral of the story is that with a contrived example, you can prove anything." - Joel Spolsky -

I was thinking about doing something similar for the project I have that eventually will turn into a CP article - I want to try writing my own licence.... I will admit to nicking the genetic structure joke from Dilbert though :-) -- Ian Darling "The moral of the story is that with a contrived example, you can prove anything." - Joel Spolsky

Yo, pinhead! Mike is one of the founding fathers here, and one of our most valuable resources. You, on the other hand, have contributed nothing of value to this site. I'd strongly suggest that you move along, remove any links to this site from your Favorites folder, and spend your miniscule mental abilities trying to make /. a better place.

who invented the idea of using missles to cleanup Al-Qaeda "training camps" in Afganistan? According to CNN, these camps consists of dozens of mojos doing push ups, climbing ropes and shooting rocks with cheap AK-47s.How much would it cost to build a camp with a few ropes? Do you think missles are a little too expensive for these non-assets? Time to send in the PowerPuff girls. :suss:

Wasn't that recently added to the EULA for MS Service Packs?
