What has this to do with alt.irc.recovery ?  Or maybe it is here just to
show how meaningless irc sessions can be.  I personally don't understand
what is so funny about word twisting.  Maybe it is just that my native
language is not English.

Why was the article not x-posted to alt.irc.corruption.log.log.log ?
Well, we can only guess.  After all it was not a corrupt mean old
log of someone who got mad at some others' words on irc.

Ok, when I read those three quoted lines again and again, it is revealed
to me that it might have a place in alt.irc.recovery -- it sounds
sarcastic, ironic, and the poster seems to have realized how wasteful
it was to waste that perfectly good evening making puns on irc.

Oh, something good. It did not happen in the Xmas Eve!  


Happy holidays,
