Neopets has bought hundreds of domains, including quite a few negative ones. So you'll have to be a bit creative if you want to put up a spoof or blah-sucks type site (and they will hassle you for it):
No surprise there. Neopets is a member of WISE, the World Institute of ScientologyEnterprises. Naturally they're going to follow L. Ron Hubbard's game plan which is to be obnoxious fsckheads making baseless threats using lawyers. (They're also marketing survey spammers as the Dohring group.)
I want to know why Bill Gates thinks it can't be built in.
He's right (but probably for the wrong reason). If you have viruses on your computer for a scanner to find, then you need to close the hole by which they're getting in. That means (a) fix the software that lets them in, (b) replace the user who keeps opening and running files and ignoring all the warnings.
You could snag hasbrosucks.com, but someone already has it. (hasbrosucks.us is available, but I dunno...) So long as there's no possibility of confusion, then it's not always a trademark slam-dunk.
He runs domains that accept email, have mx records, but have no working abuse address! This is in volation of RFC2142. (He's also violating RFC1123 5.2.17, but that's not quite as bad.)
If he violates anything as important as this, he can't be trusted with anything smaller like Congress.
I wonder if that's related to the scans I get every morning at 8:42:15 am EDT? They very nicely check my system for infection of ports 5554, 1023 and 9898 from Korean and Japanese IP addresses.
Slight problem there. My variant of Sharp's Corollary of Rule #1 is: Political spammers attempt to legislate "spamming" as that which they do not do. (In other words, you're asking the people sending political spam to have to will-power to pass laws against doing what they were doing because they didn't have the will-power in the first place.)
Fortunetely there are still blocklists and ballots to deal with them. The problem will come when they think their droppings are so sweet-smelling that it should be illegal to block or filter them. As for the ballots, we're fine unless someone is dumb enough to adopt an all-electronic system with no audit-trail. As if!
Ah, probably Texan as in the wild American west then. Lasted about five years in real life, forever in Hollywood years. (Unless they mean a certain Yale Texan. 4-8 years tops.)

I don't suppose we could get the kid to ask for a working warp drive or something useful?
Gollum strangled him in the parking lot before he could accept. "Now we will have friendsess."

I wish the FCC'd look into XM Radio using "XM" as a call sign since that's assigned to Mexico. ("I'm on a Mexican radio...")

Segway for the Highway would definitely be a killer app, for sure.
Yeah, but in this case, it's a mouse hoagie.
Don't forget the Slashback at the end of the week which sums up all of these stories.
If they really want to get the word out, they should see if they can buy space in v14gr4 spam email.
As Christopher Lee would say...
I'm sure that with a little editing work, no one will know the difference.
"Megaman, NT Warrior"? Dude, if he'd switch from NT, half his problems would be solved!
I would certainly never have hot robotic sex with a robot invented by evil Dr. Rotwang. You just don't know who she's been.
Are you sure it wasn't a .. squirrel?

They wanted to strip out all the Word history by converting formats in case any of the documents started out as a thank-you note to Darl.

Such service, and I'm not even a customer!

The greatest thing since Jerry Lewis.
In which movie, Star Wars or A New Hope?
You just have to combine it with phased Cochran pulse.
