- DISCLAIMER: Those with an absolute complete LACK of humor should skip the
- following lines as they are intended as a joke only, to reflect upon
- people's conversations:

- Yea, JERKO! You should KNOW BETTER you COMPUTER BRAT! LET'S TALK MATURELY
- DUMMY! WE'RE ALL MATURE PEOPLE! Gees, stupid ignorant PC users like to

- in to praise a computer which is lower than a politician! SO THERE!

- Okay folks, seriously- JUST KIDDING. I think generalizations like
- "Wouldn't you know it would take an Amiga user" are causing troubles. We've
- all done it at one point or another, and a lot of the time we really don't
- mean it, but well- this is USENET and things are ALWAYS out of context-
- right? ;-)
