I Can Download Your Electricity

Me: "DSL is a lot faster. It"

Friend's Father: "Yeah, but if you have DSL, there are a lot of threats."

Me: "Yes, that's true to a degree, but there are firewalls that"

Friend's Father: "No, but they can hack into your computer even when it's off and steal your electricity."

Me: "Umm...I'm pretty sure that won't happen."

Friend's Father: "It's all over the news. You mean to tell me they're wrong?"

Me: "...I guess so."
