<p>People on failblog.com were saying that this picture is a fake, that it's photoshopped, but it's actually not. The original question itself has been deleted from Yahoo! Answers, but Google cached it, and I took the liberty of screenshotting what they had. I even took a screenshot of the google header. See below the updated version before it was deleted.

<ul><li>Some, however, take issue with proactive online patrolling by police. Sarah Steinberg, 18, a senior at Robinson Secondary, explains, "I think it's an invasion of the student's privacy. It's outside of school, and I just don't think it should be part of the school's job to do that."<br /><br />Her mother, Judy Ottosen, agrees, stating, "I believe it's a parent's job."</li>
</ul><p>First off, Sarah Steinberg, it's NOT an invasion of the student's privacy. An invasion of the student's privacy is if they snoop into your private information without your consent. If you publicly post information for the whole world to see and you don't bother setting your own privacy settings, that's your own fault. You automatically give your consent when you publicly post things on the Internet. The information being accessed by the police is information that is available <strong>publicly</strong>. That means EVERYONE is able to see it, regardless if they're from your school, a police officer, or even a pedophile stalker.</p>]]></content:encoded><link>http://sunbubbles.thotswap.com/2009/04/on-dailytech-campus-officers-find-wealth-of-evidence-on-facebook-myspace---my-reply</link><dc:creator>SunBubbles</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 06 Apr 2009 18:27:32 CDT</pubDate></item><item><title>Comic: Happy Birthday neilnijjar!</title><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dedicated to <a href="http://neilnijjar.thotswap.com/">neilnijjar!</a></p>

<p><strong>Long Answer</strong>: It depends. World of Warcraft's addictiveness depends ultimately on one thing - <em>your level of self control</em>. This is really the main deciding factor on whether or not you will become addicted to the game.</p>
<p>A secondary factor would be - <em>how you play the game</em>. While your level of self control ultimately determines whether or not you become addicted to the game, this secondary factor will determine how quickly you become addicted, and what the likelyhood is of addiction based on your self control.</p>]]></content:encoded><link>http://sunbubbles.thotswap.com/2009/03/how-addictive-is-world-of-warcraft</link><dc:creator>SunBubbles</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 23 Mar 2009 03:46:44 CDT</pubDate></item><item><title>Comic: Mouse Battle 4 - Medic!</title><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-weight:bold;">*WARNING* If you're new, make sure you check out the <a href="http://sunbubbles.thotswap.com/2009/03/comic-mouse-battle">beginning</a> first!</span></p>

<p>The mouse I had before was a part of Logitech's Cordless Desktop S520 set. The mouse served me well, but I would have to say that when I started using the keyboard/mouse set, I noticed lag. I wouldn't say it was very significant lag, I've gotten used to it now. It could be a good or bad thing. </p>

I believe the same applies to romance novels. Anything from Sex &amp; the City, The Notebook, to your every-day drug store novels... all of these are the same to me.</p>
<p>Here are some reasons why women should not participate in the reading/watching/following of anything to do with romance.</p>

<p>I can't really say I studied very hard for it. Maybe an hour or two? Or three? For my other exams I studied pretty hard. 3-4 days. That's not bad, really.</p>
<p>The thing that worries me most about my exam today was the fact that it was <em>too easy</em>. I was able to finish the entire exam about 3-4 minutes before the time was up. I suppose you could say I could have finished way earlier, but it's been a while since I was able to finish an exam on time. It wasn't just that either... I knew how to do ALL the questions, without hesitation. Maybe a few seconds of thinking, but no hesitation.

Picketpatch. Her favorite colour was pink and her favorite pass time was to pick pretty flowers. She had a plump little piglet named Polly that stayed with her everywhere she went. Penelope and Polly lived in a pretty puce palace. There, they lived with her papa, King Paul Picketpatch XVI, who was the ruler of the land of Piweurds.</p>
<p>King Paul was a very pale man. He never went out in the sun unless it was to sit on the palace porch with a bottle of pepsi, his favorite drink, and a slice of pizza. Because of his diet, King Paul was quite pudgy.</p>
<p>All was perfect in the land of Piweurds. Almost perfect. The princess had a problem that could not be solved! Her father, King Paul, was so preoccupied with drinking pepsi and eating pizza on the palace porch that he never paid any attention to her pretty flowers! Every day, the princess would go to the palace gardens to pick the most pulchritudinous flowers she could find and place them in pleasant peach flower pots all around the castle in hopes that her father would praise her flower picking prowess.</p>]]></content:encoded><link>http://sunbubbles.thotswap.com/2009/02/the-pretty-princess-problem</link><dc:creator>SunBubbles</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 10 Feb 2009 21:37:25 CST</pubDate></item><item><title>Decently OK game</title><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I got a chance to play Spore at a friend's house before actually going out to buy it. I'm glad I got that chance.</p>
<p>The cell stage was by far the most fun. You get to swim around as a little creature, collect new parts, eat things, kill things, get chased by bigger things. But within maybe 30-45 minutes, you "evolve" out of this stage into the Creature stage.</p>
<p>While the Creature stage was still pretty fun, I can't say it was as fun as the cell stage. You get to run around in this stage, looking for new "genetic material" lying around in the area. You eventually "grow" to be able to create your own "pack/group". You make friends by doing the same actions they do. This part gets frustrating though... if you're not careful, you end up not being able to make friends and not being able to defeat enemies (because your "parts" do not have high enough "skill). After maybe an hour or two of play in this stage, you enter the Tribal stage.</p>]]></content:encoded><link>http://thotswap.com/review/1850-decently-ok-game</link><dc:creator>SunBubbles</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 04 Dec 2008 20:06:05 CST</pubDate></item><item><title>Great movie, horrible trend!</title><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I liked this movie a lot.

It definitely did not disappoint! I saw it in theatres once and watched it a couple more times online. Definitely the most adorable movie of the summer!</p>
<p>The whole movie is full of laughs and lots of "awww!"'s! Definitely something I would recommend as a family movie, and even a couples movie! In my opinion, perfect for a first date!</p>
<p>The movie starts off introducing the main character: Wall-E. He's the last garbage-cleaning robot left on earth, with his little durable and resilient cockroach pet. I found this part of the movie to be the most entertaining part of all. Wall-E's personality really shines here and I could help but fall in love with him at first sight! In any case, without spoiling the rest of the plot, lots of interesting stuff happens and the plot accelerates! </p>]]></content:encoded><link>http://thotswap.com/review/1848-cutest-movie-ever</link><dc:creator>SunBubbles</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 04 Dec 2008 19:04:22 CST</pubDate></item><item><title>Good movie in general</title><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I found the movie in general to be entertaining enough. However, it doesn't quite match up to other movies released around the same time in terms of entertainment value (i.e. Wall-E, Kung Fu Panda, although you can't really group those in the same category). </p>
<p>There were only a few moments in the movie where the entire theatre exploded in laughter, which given the actors in the movie, was kind of a disappointment for me. A lot of the movie was spent chuckling, more at Jack Black's silly antics than anything else.</p>
<p>With that said, it's definitely not a bad movie. I found the actor's performances to be excellent. I think the weak link in this movie was the plot, if anything. There was so much potential for it, but the plot really didn't live up to expectations.</p>]]></content:encoded><link>http://thotswap.com/review/1847-good-movie-in-general</link><dc:creator>SunBubbles</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 04 Dec 2008 18:50:12 CST</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
