    Is that the kind of bus I can load up with heavy explosives to ram into your yankee pigdog skyscrapers? Heil bin Laden!

    Every year another fool flaps his/her mouth about Optical hardware. Now a dude who thinks that rebooting the CPU is effective memory management is going to make it all come true. NOT!

    DIE you anti-troll stuck up motherfucker! Back in the old country where I come from a poor trolling village we would have killed you, chopped you up, and put you in the freezer to live off of your remains for weeks. I came to this country to make a simple honest living as a troll and you try to disgrace my heritage. Damn you Americans! Damn you! I hope Roman Polanski comes back to the States and rapes your daughter!!!!
