Good job, Anderson, thanks!

Anyway, looks like we're alright, just 1 guy with devalued time hoping that we are gullible enough to click his links.

Joking aside, yeah, thanks Anderson. (Forgot to say that earlier.)

-thinks we need to find that guy and break his legs.

I'm gonna assume this "Anonymous" is some sort of official, organised hacking group distinct from the generic, postmodern "Anonymous" used to ironically refer to the mass of unnamed internet users who may or may not partake in various semi-legal activities while wearing Guy Fawkes masks.

How times change! Man I feel old!

Anonymous isn't used ironically. They also have no formal leadership, so basically any group of people can assemble, do whatever, and claim it's a move by Anonymous. That's kind of the point.

*I* know this. My joke- which I'm sorry to see he didn't get- was that Dom apparently doesn't. It's funny, really, since I'm sure a lot of people who consider themselves Anonymous would be overjoyed to hear themselves described as an actual fixed group of shadowy hackers. It's like a 90s movie.

I know that Anonymous is not an organized group. Most of them are just punks who need to be curb-stomped. But, their collective and spontaneous tantrums have impacted media, financial and goverment websites. Most of their activity is in support of a cause or in retaliation for some kind of institutional "bad behavior".

I decribe them accurately here, as I did above.


Dom
-notes that your sarcasm did not come through.

Nah, we need to break his fingers so he can't type or spam.

Yeah, breaking his legs would be the worst thing you could do. Then he'd have nothing to do all day but sit at his computer.

No, you idiots. The meme is, break his kneecaps, steal his toys, and melt them down to make roleplay Star Sabers.

Ursus wasn't around for that, and I'm not sure Anderson was... but shame on Dom. We can't even remember our own memes.

Well, in my defense, it has been nearly a decade.

That said, yeah, maybe breaking his legs would be counterproductive.


Dom
-but we much break him.
