    Does anyone realise that enviro-marxist do-gooders are lining their pockets beacuse muslims are running the show. True patriots must bring back Hitler. We need less emotion and more backbone in this country!??

    First they came for the 'typical yanks'

    First they came for the 'typical yanks' commenters, but I didn't care because I don't complain about 'typical yanks'.

    Then they came for the 'Nazi referrers', but I agreed with Godwins law, so I didn't care.

    Then they came for the grammar 'Nazi's', but the people who quote Godwin's law had already been taken, so nobody complained.

    Then they came for the people who quote Pastor Martin Niemöll....^%$%$@& l;,l;fgb,l;

    These things have been around for at least 10 years. Some of them have advanced (or is that regressed) to the point that you could mistake them for actual people. Albeit ones who are drunk/stoned, can't spell or punctuate and have no clue what they're talking about (though it's usually completely off-topic).

    I just find something on the internet that makes me angry, it's not difficult, just spend five minutes reading a tabloid news website like CNN or Fox News. I then just pick a random story from the Reg with a comment form and start ranting until my fingers bleed.

    What do you mean that's not what the everyone else does? Then how do you explain what they're writing?

    Speaking of homolesbians, what's the latest on the gay flamingos and cows? Haven't seen a decent gay animal story on the reg for a long time. Have the world's grant writers actually started reading applications for funding?

    If you can write a Perl script that produces a good facsimile of your average Daily Mail / HYS reader's outpourings - does that mean Britain now has several million people who would fail the Turing test?
