Bomb Explodes At PayPal Headquarters

Posted by ryuzaki0 on Wednesday November 1, 2006 @05:31AM from the disgruntled-customers dept.

Pooua writes to tell us that an explosive device left outside of PayPal headquarters exploded last night. The explosion was powerful enough to knock out one of their plate glass windows but thankfully that was the only casualty of the blast. Perhaps they should have offered employee protection instead?

Shouldn't be too difficult.. by ackthpt · 2006-11-01 05:32 · Score: 5, Funny

Shouldn't be too difficult to find the culprit, just look for someone extremely dissatisfied with their service.

Seriously, anyone who thought they were having a bad time of it with PayPal will find that experience pales compared to the bad time they'll have for planting a bomb.

  Great, that narrowed down the list by about two. Any other ideas?

Man, if I had a nickle for every time I wanted to bomb Paypal, I'd have... er... probably a real hassle getting all the money out of my Paypal account.

Every year during my review, I just pray the words "slashdot.org" aren't mentioned.

If "disco" means "I learn" in Latin, does "discothèque" mean "I learn technology"?
