I have got to admit, I thought a news post by Gabe about how his kid thought Emperor Palpatine littered was kind of cute, and it definitely wouldn't have made a bad comic.

Though then I see this shit! I'm going to leave it at the bottom, because I can explain it in totality and then dump it down there without needing to a way to integrate Tycho's caca into my post.

A condescending moderator bans some kid, the kid uploads a heavily edited video. Another video appears where it shows the kid was cursing like a motherfucker. The world is somehow split, completely unable to realize that maybe a person who monitors children's online behavior shouldn't have all the wise crackiness of April O'Neal. Additionally lots of people don't understand why everyone hates authority.

Below Tycho (who doesn't even have kids?) goes on about how the guy (who I bet doesn't have kids) is using his dad voice.

It was a lot of fun watching this story mutate as the day progressed, warping in its essential shape, culminating in something like justice. A brigand has tasted his own medicine, and it is bitter.


His Twitter is a hoot - he taunts Infinity Ward's Robert Bowling about the ability to alter game behavior at will, and in the very next message attempts to seek the developer's sympathy.  It's like, wow, douche. Is lion taunting statistically correlated with lion attacks? Do some math, motherfucker.  He's an utterly unrepentant hacker, yet he wonders what strange force keps gets his boxes banned. It would be like if I'd made a reputation for myself entering local cafes, slipping into the back to shit directly on their hot grills. And then, when I came back the next day, they told me to leave - even if I hadn't managed to shit on anything during that particular visit! Come to terms with the idea that there is a point beyond which you are not worth the price of your subscription.



There are times during the video when "The Pro," a moderator on the service and the supposed villain, sounds like a real bastard - but I've got sufficient life experience to recognize the underlying waveform in his audio stream.


He is using his Dad Voice.


When you and I log into the service of our choice, we can log off at any time. Try to imagine a world where you could not escape these people, where it was your damnation in a literal sense to stew in a crockpot of social disease. Maybe he should be nicer to people who claim to have fucked his grandmother until she was destroyed by the process.  That's something he can work on, maybe.  I'm sure there's an informative pamplet he can peruse.  In the meantime, let's get that statue made.
