Agreed that Adria had every right to feel offended. There is no place for humour in public. You are not the first person though to be caught telling dongle jokes: [VIDEO]
Speaking of dongles in a funny context, Googling for dongle jokes turned up this pretty funny comedy sketch from a show on the BBC where dongles play a small part: [VIDEO]
This is a good occasion to recommend a great British comedy sketch: My Blackberry Is Not Working! [VIDEO] One reference that may not be familiar to all viewers: when the sketch was made in 2010, Orange was a popular UK mobile carrier. Enjoy!
> Except rip offs happen regularly still with little intervention As with spam, what you see is what gets past the filter; the actual attempted rate is much higher, and gets goods seized at customs when C&Ds aren't enough. As for "this is ridiculous": yes, that's why Apple lost the case it's here appealing. But Apple also used to regularly lose to the other Apple Corp. because trademarks are separated by domain and the music company wanted to make sure the computer company never did music. Eventually they paid a lot of money and agreed to stop fighting. [VIDEO]
