Ok, ok, I have to admit that that was a lame attempt at whoring some karma. Sorry!

I also feel that I must confess that I have multiple personality disorder and use two other accounts to troll from. I'm a frustrated musician and a wannabee programmer who works phones for a help desk. I really hate anything open source since it means that I'll be out of a job (miserable as it is). I have no life, and even the people that used to like me think I'm a dick. I haven't been laid in seven years and as such I take out my sexual frustrations by obsessing over anyone who says anything negative about Microsoft, Bill Gates, Steve Ballmer, Fox News or the Republican Party. Even if it's true! I can't help myself! People keep telling me that I should get some professional help, but I just never seem to get around to it.

Thanks for listening. This has really been weighing heavily on me for the past year or so and I feel much better now having cleared the air. But if you want more confessions, look here to satify your curiosity.
