Zealot, pig headed and bloody minded,
Sterotypical Slashdot user;
The worse thing is the editors,
One's an habitual child abuser!

News for Nerds. Stuff that Matters.
We hear it all the time;
You'll be moderated into oblivion,
Unless you toe the party line.

Ninety eighty four is here,
Our freedom's all but lost!
My house is bugged I am not free,
If I speak it's at what cost?

Government corruption, RIAA lies,
Oh! A big tax on MP3!
I've got 40 gigs of music,
And none owing to piracy.

Flame and SHOUT and type *sigh*
It makes themselves look gay;
On any proper message board,
They'd just be cleared away!

First year of a uni ed,
They think they know it all;
Installed RedHat from a CD,
And blitzed the '98 install.

But soon they'll notice problems,
When MS Word will work no more;
The answer to their worries is
Q247804

Slashdot sucks, and no denying,
The state of things right here;
56ker and HanzoSan,
Talking shit throughout the year.

Jesus Christ this site is lame,
Predictable Microsoft bashing;
But no-one mentions the 2.4 tree,
When bug caused filesystem crashing.

Security holes debated all the time,
You'd think they'd get it right;
But Linux servers are just as bad,
Warnings published out of sight.

To sum it up with a simple phrase,
(the zealots have started crying);
Linux was just a fad and phase,
Thank god Slashdot is dying.

Does it have "open sores" on it?
