I told you to stop writing me. I am no longer interested
in taking acid and smoking crack. Go away.

Hey, guess what? NTL.

This one's now enshrined. I've created a subcategory for emails posted
to Usenet.

That's just one of the problems with NTL. Like most google-gropers, etc., they
don't seem to make any sense. Even when they use proper grammar, they *still*
don't make any sense, and frankly, I resent the time I waste trying just to
decipher the posts. How are people this (insert ignorant, lazy, what have you
here) going to understand the answers they're given if they can't write a
comprehensive question?

This is devolution in action.

I'm always amazed by the number of people who can't write (and how well
can they even read, if they think the above example (the misguided email
is English?) are drawn to this, a written medium. I don't play the
violin -- so I don't drag one out to the street corner and saw away at it
in public.

Q. What's the difference between bagpipes and a lawn mower?
A. You can tune a lawnmower.

They might pay you to stop...

Oh what the heck, sharks don't play the violin anyway.

I'm with ya. Just look at how many pages there are online about usenet
etiquette, and yet almost every newbie totally ignores them. Even after they
arrive here and make fools out of themselves, they *still* ignore them. That's
why google groupers and ntlers are "famous."

I like this page:

http://www.dur.ac.uk/its/services/usenet/guidelines/

and the Usenet guidelines here:

http://tgos.org/newbie/rules.html

But this one's still my favorite:

But you can't tuna fish.

I know. <GROAN>
