Nick Drake.

Years ahead of his time and while he gets a lot of recognition posthumously in certain music circles, he didn't have any hits during his life, or even any hits after, so the average Joe hasn't heard of him.

All three of his albums are fantastic, though Five Leaves Left is my favorite.

The US has limited hard braking? What city do they live in?

We all played a game called Drug Wars. It was text based.

I don't know anyone who's used IRC in the last fifteen years at least.

At least back when I used IRC, it wasn't indexed either. It was just an alternative to AOL Instant Messenger or Yahoo Chat.

Wild cubs/kittens do though.

I can't stand the art style.

You mean my house?

Honestly, I think it's an impossible question. Like, how do you pick a favorite book that isn't an absolute arbitrary answer to begin with? I don't even think I could narrow it down if you asked by author. Like, which Piers Anthony book is my favorite? Damned if I know.

That's why people go for classics. Because it isn't answerable.

Interesting. I read these as a kid and remember nothing but them being ripping good yarns.

I look at it more on the level of discussing crimes via text or email or what have you. (I'm not saying sexting is or should be a crime. It's an analogy).

If you don't want it to get out, don't document it. If you don't care if it gets out, do whatever you want.

That's not to say that it wouldn't also be nice to have control over your own image nor that people shouldn't go to jail for revenge porn, etc., but once it's out there, it's out there. You can't put it back into Pandora's box. That's just how reality works.
