My favorite are the indemnification clauses.  I count how many things
some large company wants *me* to indemnify *them* against.  Don't
these jokers have a legal budget?  Do they think any money I can chip
in is going to amount to a hill of beans?  In any case why would I
want to agree to pay their legal expenses?

(I'm not a lawyer so I might be misreading things a bit, but many of
them sure seem to be very open-ended in what they want users to
indemnify them against.  They way I see it, if the user does something
wrong that costs a company money, then the company can always sue the
user.  Indemnification clauses are simply a way to get money from the
user even in cases when no court would agree with them that the user
did something wrong.))
