Indeed. And luckily it wasn't Brian Peppers (internet meme) or Brian Peppers (meme), both of which were created last evening, and at least one of which was deleted several times in a few minutes, along with a nonsense biography of some guy's girlfriend, with pictures (deleted six times) and various other foolishness.
