After being told "We have a policy that we are not being hacked." when he tried to report a security problem to Friendster, Jason Kottke wrote:

"We have a policy that we're not being hacked." That's my new favorite thing right there. No longer do I need to acknowledge any deficiencies in my life; policy will take care of that. I have a policy that I'm fabulously wealthy. I have a policy that I can dunk a basketball. I have a policy that I'm the the life of the party. I have a policy that I'm dating Nicole Kidman *and* Gwyneth Paltrow. I. Feel. So. Free. You really should try this for yourself. I have a policy that it's great.

*hoot hoot hoot* A company that sends out stuff like that to its customer base has given the marketroids entirely too much power.

I think I should develop a policy for becoming fabulously successful and wealthy. :D

It sounds to me as if the support person was saying that in frustration and irony, not that they're supposed to tell people they have that "policy."

I have a policy of vast influence yet negligible responsibility. I don't even need wealth, as I have a policy of people giving me lots of highly desirable presents. I have a policy of ideal health and relationships without effort or commitment.

And I thought personal affirmations were scary.....
