A frigging MEN. Ive never understood why these so called 'tough jocks' need to wear a metre worth of padding.
btw, the last paragraph is a bit confusing;
But on the less-than-bright side ... these really are the best and brightest of humanity. They've got DSL. And grammar. And encyclopedic, albeit utterly useless, depths of knowledge. It's horrible, but true: when ekOeOfhOpe and dArK_RaVeN and Sparky and Evercat are found rotting in their apartments, it will be their inferiors who have repopulated the earth in their own sweaty image. Ooh. Not so chipper anymore.
paz y amor, rjs

"I never fully understood the sheer awfulness of the human condition until last Tuesday. In the course of a debate about mammalian intelligence, my friend Harlan and I discovered an online encyclopedia called Wikipedia.org, a depressingly successful effort to harness the elusive Power of Loser."
That's brilliant, it's a little insight into the mind of a vandal. He's calling us all losers for trying to construct something of value. He attacks the site just out of revulsion for the effort we put in. I guess if we want to be more than "barely-sapient", we should discard our geekish ways and go play football.
The expression "depressingly successful" suggests a tinge of jealousy.
Later in the article he states: "The only drawback is that the content is just a tad skewed toward entries about hentai, Magic cards and KFC." Many a chicken found out only too late about the intentions of their friend Harlan from KFC.
Maybe he should learn Australian rules football, or at least rugby rather than that tame American excuse for football.
