What the Fuck's an IP Address?

Dude, I push the button, my laptop goes on, I click the little fox thingy, the internet appears right there on the TV screen; it's like all magical and stuff like that. Now, they're saying things are gonna be changing. What am I gonna do, Dude. It's like, y'know, so awesome to like, ummm, not even leave the house, Dude, and get me my dose of reality right there, y'know. It's like totally cool, philosophically speaking.

But they are saying this IP stuff, Dude, like totally the heart and soul of the internet -- they are saying there won't be no IP's to go around anymore. Like used up, man, cuz, y'know, it's like SUV's sucking up all the gas. IP guzzlers, Dude. Very, very bad. Bad for you. Bad for me.

What's that? You wanna know who they are? Like what're you talkin' about, man? You know who they are. The eternal they, Dude. You know, the ethereal they, all-seeing, yet unseen, the omniscient they. Like ... uhhh .... super physicists, Dude, but more. I'm surprised. Really, Dude. You don't know who they are. What rock have you been hiding under, Dude? Hah, don't know who they are. Funny.

They are gonna give us like ... ummm ... ultra IP's so that we won't ever run out, not in a million years, man. They're makin' it so that everyone, I mean, ev-ree-one, every man, woman, child, and pet in the universe will have more IP's than the old lady in the shoe had children, and even more. Dude, they are totally fixing this IP problem.

In fact, Dude, I'm writing to my city councilman to tell him to find out if they can fix social security, potholes, the gas prices and, y'know, stuff like that cuz, Dude, they totally don't mess around.
