    April 1st is over. Even under normal circumstances it is hard to judge seriousness of typical Slashdot posts, but today, I simply refuse to participate in filtering out April Fools detritus from the usual. I am going to get on my Amiga 2000 and play Giana Sisters. That is all.

    There's your problem. It's not your cat, you're his person.

    You can't master any cat, only dogs. As the saying goes - dogs have masters, cats have staff.

    Protip: IGNORE IT.

    Seriously, if you hate all these stories so much, leave /. for the day. It won't kill you. You know they're going to be here all day, so come back tomorrow. You'll be happier because you won't be reading the stories, and we'll be happier because you won't be bitching about our fun.
