Not trying to be trying... but I'm of the opinion that even though it is
satire... it has no place on this list. I don't find anything like this
any fun or funny at all.

Now REAL issues like the old KB article that says something like
"password invalid being to long, your password must be at least 18,312
characters long!" Or Perhaps some old Microsoft Passport exploits (Being
15 years old) that *STILL* are in the APIs and respond "improperly" when
tickled... oh and as a regular user on a locked down machine.  NOW THOSE
ARE FUN and FUNNY!

Yep, I'm the mean old Moderator lackey that Bob Kline thought was doing
everything to him. (I wasn't... but hey... let me take the blame for him
leaving, I'm good for it.)

Oh wait... nah, I'm just a big arsehole or stupid git... take your pick.

My opinion still stands though, since it is mine.
