I just read this on slashdot:

Slashdot link: http://it.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=07/10/11/2157244
Article link: http://www.rlslog.net/real-punishmen...mmer-murdered/

Its terrible, but still I can't help but be a bit amused.

I think I'll have to. But spammers are either becoming really smart or too stupid to understand what Peter is talking about.

Holy crammed spammer, Batman!!

Great googly moogly, and I thought I might be going a trifle overboard....

Is that who I think it is that they whacked? That sounds like PharmaMaster himself.

I say: kill them all except not with the bullets but by stuffing in their throats
all viagra pills, enlarged p***ses etc. the same staff they so relentlessly
are trying to shove in ours only not one at the time but everything combined
in one single shot.

If enlarged p***ses wouldn’t kill them then viagra will give them such erection
that it will blow their minds

At least that's not something that happens here in the United States (let's hope it doesn't start).

So, given the ways these spammers supposedly died, I wonder if we could create something like Whac-A-Mole...

Yes, folks, it's Whack-A-Spammer! Catharsis for a quarter!

Talking of voting to make something official, I found out today that if you 500 people say "x" is a religion in a census, it is. For example, in a census (2001 I believe) in the UK, something like 12,000 people for some reason said their religion was "Jedi", and now this is an officially recognized religion, according to what I was told. I don't know if it's true or not, but I find it quite entertaining anyway!
