Livejournal TOS oopsie

I am reminded of a line from Torch Song Trilogy: “Oops? Did you say ‘Oops’, Ed? No, Ed. ‘Oops’ is when you fall down an elevator shaft. ‘Oops’ is when you go skinny dipping in a school of pirhana. ‘Oops’ is when you accidentally douche with drano. No, Ed, this was not an ‘Oops’. This was an AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA”

Today livejournal finally caved and added advertising to the site. as part of that they put up a new TOS which more or less said “we reserve the right to ban anyone using popup blockers”.

They forced some poor CS person to apologize. I am posting a screencap of the apology in case they take the page down, cause its too funny. :)
Here is a humorous Valleywag post detailing LJ’s advertising policy evolution and here is the LJ apology.
