Hello again and I would like to thank all those who were courteous
enough to reply vis-�-vis my recent messages to your newsgroup.
Unfortunately, after a quick perusal of said replies, I have come to
the sad conclusion that my original statements were not too far wide
of the mark. This I had scarcely hoped to credit and I derive no
satisfaction from this state of affairs.
Furthermore, and notwithstanding the foregoing, the senders of the
replies were an assortment of armchair system-administrators, grumpy
old bastards, little-Englanders, impotent curtain-twitchers, bloody
Pharynges, and people who are only on the Internet because they [or a
relation] knew how to insert a Freeserve CD [and where not to insert
it, one presumes]. As those of you reading my earlier posts will know
only too well, the above categories and types of people are,
collectively, referred to as net-nannies.
To these net-nannies who think they can read headers and get me kicked
off, well all I can say is that there are upwards of 150 ISPs in Great
Britain. These headbangers are deluding themselves if they believe
that they can get rid of me that easily. I have been on the net for
eight years and will still be here in another eight years time, unlike
the newbies who have chucked away a grand and a half on a PC from PC
World which will have given up the ghost long before the warrantee is
up on it.
In short, and not to put too fine a point on the matter, my recent
postings have only served to demonstrate.. nay, confirm... that the
Internet, and USENET in particular, is infested by a group of socially
deprived sad bastards aka net-nannies. The unity between a net-nannie
and his or her fellow net-nannie would put the Freemasons or the Grand
Order of the Moose to shame and I am led to believe that these
respected organisations have a system known as black-balling to vet,
from their applicants, those who are psychologically or intellectually
prone to net-nannyism.
A full report can be seen on contacting the group at the address
below.
Your good buddy

My Dear Caruthers, A "WARRANTEE" is the person who holds a Warrant or a Warranty. (Chambers 20th Cent Dict) How a Warrantee can be on top of it (Whatever IT is...) you must illuminate us all by confirming or expanding your almost but not fully intelligible post. Your persistence at posting this pseudo-humour is admirable in that it shows a complete lack of inhibition and a fair degree of Gallusness. The only reason I haven't put your nonsense in a kill filter is due to you providing at least a modicum of rant, which makes up for, to some degree, this current warm weather souring the milk. Yours Appreciatively, HIPPO.
