Apple inverted / natural scrolling - I want it to GO AWAY

I just upgraded to OSX Lion 10.7, I own a normal fucking mouse (Intellimouse), not some "magic-harry-potter" mouse, and I hate invented scrolling - in fact, trouble is that I cannot find a way to change it.

When I go to "System Preferences" - "Mouse" .. there's nothing. When I go to "System Preferences" - "Microsoft Mouse"; guess what? NOT A FUCKING THING.

So gents and ladys, how do I get rid of this piece of shit so I can fucking scroll as I've been doing for the last two decades?

Jesus-fucking-Christ, fuck you, Steve!

Oh, and to you out there, who answers this question: THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR KINDNESS!

Illegal scrolling

When someone hands you their phone to show you a photo or text, and you swipe left/right or scroll up or down without permission to.
Dude, I gave Sammy my phone to show her that bitchy text from Alice and she totally started illegal scrolling.

Strolling

Strolling: v. Internet Lingo. Somewhere between stalking and trolling on a message board. The act of creepily following a member of the opposite sex around a message board. Strolling often includes bumping their ATTN: threads as soon as they log onto the message board, posting 30 seconds or less after they post in a thread, and abuse of private messages. Strolling differs from trolling because you actually like the person you are strolling. Strolling differs from stalking because it stays on the message board, and no attempt to actually have physical contact is made.

Variations: stroll, stroller, strolled, strollee, rickstrolled, among others.

*NOTE: this tactic has been perfected by drunknloaded, Walls1441 and ReceiveDeath/Airbag of the NCSU Message Board thewolfweb.com

Scrolling

An extremely important and irreplaceable activity, that is a part of every office job, and can involve any act that is unrelated to one's job mandate. Some common scrolling activities are fantasy football, social media, exploring Wikipedia and car forums. Advanced scrollers are able to deplete all scrolling materials available for the day covertly, while pretending to be extremely busy. This is usually achieved by professional scrollers through the use of window resizing, redundant spreadsheets, and mobile device utilization, among other things in the scroller's toolbox.
John: What's good at work bro, you fools busy or what?
