Kansas

I hate software updates. Sprint's software prompts me now and then to update. Typically I do and when I get through the whole process it informs me there's already a newer version of the same software on my computer. Then what are you bothering me about, Sprint?

So often I'll just click to decline the software update. About half the time it will come right back and insist I absolutely must download this software or some rich CEO will be offended or something terrible like that, so I go through the whole she-bang and then 90% of the time it again informs me that a newer version of the same software already exists on the computer.

Tonight I chose to read the terms of agreement and about half-way through I'm thinking, what the fuck am I agreeing to not sue, or not be part of a class action lawsuit for? Nowhere does it say what this upgrade will do. What am I agreeing to? What if the software creates a T-Rex that climbs out of my computer and rapes my neighbor? Can I sue then?

And I have to agree to a jury trial in Kansas? What?

So I just stopped and I know it'll prompt me again soon to update the software or run the risk of a billionaire banker crying or something truly unacceptable like that, but I don't care. Kansas? I'm going to let a jury in Kansas decide? I'll probably be sentenced to go to some pound-the-homosexual-out-of-you camps I hear they have there. I'll be compelled by the court to shoot an obstetrician before I can go free and get my Internet service back.

Kansas.
