As stated above
There has never been an occasion where it has meant anything else.
Except when it really means what it says. I came to read the comments because I had never heard of Ghostface Killa. What is it, or who is it? Why is it/he being mentioned on /.?
And now, having read the comments, and learned what this is all about, I think I'll return to a more valuable source of news, like, say, Facebook.
Never insult rap guys when you're about to be sent to PMITA prison.
Do you think at this point Shkrelli has used some of his money to hire private security?
He's been an asshole to people who can generally be lumped into the category of "more dangerous to fuck with than other groups"
Jacking up the price of life saving drugs -- falls into the category of "people who could die before they could ever get convicted for homicide" and the parallel category of "pissed off loved ones of people who were denied lifesaving drugs".
Stealing money from rich people -- falls into the category of "people who can afford to hire other people to kill people that steal from them"
Offending guys named Ghostface Killah -- falls into the category of "people who are named killah might actually have a predilection for violence"
