I started an email justifying my rant, but then I
realized I just don't give a fuck what Aram thinks
in the first place.
Don'blah, son.

That's very nice of you. I hope you have fun. If you
don't mind (or do, it don't mean shit to me), I'ma stay
right here.

I think you might want to direct yourself and your liberal
Dee-Eye riders. In fact, rename the mailing list "unable-to-cope-with-reality@
mit.edu." I think it would
fit the format and list culture a bit better.
Once again, don'blah, son.

I prefer the "pucker up and kiss my ass" rule myself.
How about we go over the basics here. I didn't initiate a single
discussion on this list. Since I don't string a shitload of
big words together and have a high tendency to lace my points
with profanity and hyperbolic analogy -- also, since I'm right,
you're wrong, and you know it -- you find it in your heart to
speak up about what you think mit-talk's mysterious mission in
life is. My suggestion is to use that wonderful filtering technology
and block what you don't want to see. If you can't do that, then
I'm sure you can take three minutes to press delete a few times.
In the absence of that, I suggest seeing a procto about that
stick up your behind.
