This year, the Software Engineers at McMaster University designed a life sized Pac-Man board, thus answering the question of whether or not software engineering is in fact engineering."
I've caused a stir on Slashdot with my choice of words before. I did apologise that time (and my karma did not suffer), but I shall not be aplogising this time.
As my peers have already flamed, this is slashdot, where there are much worse things than an insult (not actually profane) applied to someone who did seem to be lacking in the brain department.
This kind of language wouldn't be tolerated at my school either, but we're not at school, are we?
Do you apply this kind of sanction for every goatse.cx link, Portman joke or swear word? I've seen "nigger", "faggot" et cetera posted - but I've never seen you complain before. I see you are an old timer - you must have seen a lot worse around here, why did you feel the need to pick me out for a dressing down?
