MIT Gnome Invasion
J. Arthur Random writes "On Wednesday, April 23, hundreds of gnomes invaded the main public computer cluster at MIT. There were big gnomes, little gnomes, even naked gnomes. A gnome army carried the GNOME banner. Fortunately, the ACME Gnome Exterminators took care of the infestation within a few days."
Go calculate something
Must you use the magic word, Kappa Delta Edward?
HELP!
The Gnomes are coming! The Gnomes are coming!
The colo just called. They're coming through the raised floors, and just appearing inside cages and cabinets! They're overrunning us!!!!
Serious? Seriousness is well above my pay grade.
But you guys really have to get out more.....
Looking at the pictures... wow. Pirate gnomes! Goth gnomes! Alcoholic gnomes!
:)
I think some people really need to get lives.
Thank god it wasn't the underpants gnomes!
Is this what happens when you run GnomeMeetings?

What's that noise??
Why it's a metrognome
I'm truly sorry for this post.
Who are y oo ?
In the US, it's friday night. Little news is being generated. Most people are out doing something.
Except us, of course.
Party on, clbyjack81!

Hundreds of Gnomes couldn't take down the MIT computer labs, but Slashdot does it with one story submission. Is there anything that can stop the Slashdot army?
"On Wednesday, April 23, hundreds of trolls invaded the front page stories at slashdot. There were long trolls, short trolls, even goatse trolls. A troll army carried the spiralx banner. Fortunately, the moderators took care of the infestation within a few hours."
We have proven that gnomes do not exist.
Fight Spammers!
But I thought a metrognome was a gnome that lived in the city. :)
So the computer lab is filled with hairy little men. What's so great about this? You should see my friends at a LAN party... Woohoo! Hack! =)
Bah! ACME Gnome Extermination has, in my experience, been a waste of money and time. I prefer calling in the...
KDE Extermination Service. Their superior technology and leadership has led them to victory against the GNOMEs time and time again. Their great Konqueror crushed the Gnome legions before, and can do it again. Even the mighty Gnome Republican Guard fall when faced with the awesome power of the Konqi Special Forces!
Fear the Gear!
Now, I await the Mohammed Saeed Al-Sahaf joke.
Slashdot is a waste of time. I enjoy wasting time.
It took all of us (literally) years to compile and create all of these gnomes.
It took you years to compile GNOME? Dude, you need a faster computer.

They've all gone there to meet Gnome Chomsky.
The lack of female gnomes in the Athena cluster are representative of the general student population. :-)
Just kidding...
Humorless sig goes here.
