I've been a member of CodeProject for a while and it has become a morning ritual for me to peruse the forums for interesting conversations and to learn something new. Spam and Abuse Watch has become one of my favorite forums, because many read like mini crime dramas. I have read of hamsters taking head-shots and trolls forced back under their bridge. I, also, read justifications for not allowing spam to the copy-paste masters using their talents in blatant plagiarism.
I can hear the narrator from A Christmas Story spinning phrases like "The hamster grips his cold-steel beauty for the ultimate head-shot to another one of Black Bart's gang carrying a bag of bottled skin pills." 
Keep up the great work guys. I love a good read. 
When you are dead, you won't even know that you are dead. It's a pain only felt by others.
Same thing when you are stupid.

We aim to please.
But the hamsters aim to kill ...

That's no hamster, it's a squirrel!
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

Yikes! Sean must have upgraded the defenses. That's good considering the hordes of trolls, spammers, and plagiarists. Besides, the hamsters are the commanders. They give the kill order. 
I have a hard time admitting that I can't tell the difference between a hamster and a squirrel.  I never was into that kind of thing.

Squirrels are the ones that collect nuts.
Hamsters are the ones that go for your nuts.

It's also been my morning ritual for over 10 years now...I came here seeking knowledge, now I just come here looking for jokes/rants/articles/interesting facts, etc... so mostly the lounge these days! Agreed, this is a great site.

Knowledge will help you advance in life.
A good laugh will help you live longer.
You can call it a work/life balance -- but then everyone will sigh and walk away.

I didn't realise we had so many spammers -- so it must be working!

Now, in a single throwback post you pointed me to a fine post (worthy of the action scenes of the books I'm reading now) and to a reply which pointed me to an entire new book series.
Thank you!

My Chromecast is annoying when the internet fails as well: Our telephone line was cut and we have no internet for a month a few years ago and the Chromecast refused to do anything, including cast from my NAS or tablet!

So I was just checking Facebook and I noticed one of those "celebrating n years" of friendship on Facebook. (aside: is that really what we've come to?)
Anyway, it is an old friend and her friend. His parent must have really hated him. Really.
His name?
Chris P. Bacon.
Honestly. Poor bastard.

Could have been worse. They could have named him Kevin.
