Another entrant for the 2007 Bynkiis

Under the heading of "My Pussy Hurts", we have this dingaling: Marc Fizman, aka "Captain Marc". Okay, so as soon as you see someone calling themselves "Captain" *anything* in an attempt to be all Old Sk00l haxx0riffic, you know you're dealing with someone who has the mental and emotional maturity of a 12 year old discovering the other uses for their privates...and that they'll never be sharing them with anyone.

Marc is sad. Sad Marc. Marc is sad because a free thing is no longer completely free. The Blue Meanies at Iconfactory have decided that the amount of work they do to keep Twitteriffic going requires compensation, and I don't mean a nice email and a handjob. I mean cash. Cold, hard cash. Filthy Lucre. That's right, the eeeeeevil bastiges at Iconfactory want MONEY. Even worse, if you want to use Twitteriffic without paying MONEY, you have to look at ADS!

MY GOD, IT'S LIKE LIVING IN A CONCENTRATION CAMP! WITH ADS! OMGWTFKHAAAAAAAAN!!!!!

Come on people, it's fifteen fucking dollars, and if you don't want to pay it, a random ad a few times an hour. It's not a fucking crime against humanity, nor did Iconfactory take your parents and your dog and make you live in a tar paper shack in the Mojave Desert. Marc's just another one in a long line of douchebags who can't stand not getting everything for free, and so is all whiny about having to pay fifteen fucking dollars for an app. Or see ads. Wah-fucking-wah. You want the best part?

The little pinhead doesn't even USE Twitteriffic:

but personally I’m spending most of my time in Snitterland and am loving it.
No, he's just doing this as a public service. Hey Marc, you want to be of service? How about you do something useful, like volunteering at an old folk's home, instead of being a whiny little cock about an application you don't even use.

Of course, you better not get too uppity with Captain Marc, or he'll try to insinuate that something bad will happen to you:

Idiot, eh?

You’re just asking for some hacker meditation, Mr Dillingham…

Not that the Great and Mighty Marc would do it himself, because hey, he's such a whining wuss:
@43: I’m merely suggesting you’re asking for an attack. I would, of course, never dream of performing such an attack myself.

Now it’s entirely possible there are people within my various circles who would dream of performing such an attack.

But I can’t be held responsible for their actions. Can I, Mr Dillingham?

Actually Marc, if it's shown you induced, through action or word, someone to perform an illegal act, then you can in fact, be held responsible. Ask Charles Manson about it sometime, I hear he's got time to spare.

GAH, the only thing Marc deserves is a good whuppin' with a switch. He's yet another fucking entitlement queen who thinks he "deserves" shit for free, because he's a "loyal supporter". In the computer world, "Loyal Supporter" is another way of saying "Big pain in the ass entitlement queen douchebag". They're like squabs: Make a lot of noise, and are unable to chew their own food, much less go out and get their own food.

"Captain" Marc Fizman: Entitlement Douchbag.


(Oh, for the record, no, I haven't paid for Twitteriffic. I've no problem with the ads, so I don't see a point, and it's got some strange shit going on with it that make me unwilling to drop the fifteen on it. But really, the ads are not bad at all. Hell, they're barely noticeable at all. Unless you're an Entitlement Douchebag. Like Marc.)
