PostIt announced a takeover of Stickies™ the digital equivalent of it's most famous product: PostIt Notes. Various anti-cartel institutions are rather concerned about the monopoly that emerges in the field of sticky papers and the effect this will have on our day to day task of remembering all kinds of trivial matter. Little competition remains in the business of scribble and paste.

My cousin used to work for Stickies. He got stabbed to death by some PostIt workers behind the Olive Garden by our house.

not too mention the absurd pressure under which Stickies™ employees have to live. Always pushing insane amount of updates and mindblowing features to impossible deadlines! I respect them.

I heard there's a lot of racial tension between those mini's. If it were up to me, I'd have 'em all killed.

Not to mention the employees. About 105,000 worldwide, including support and r&d..
