DirtyLarry Veteran Posted December 20, 2004 Veteran Share Posted December 20, 2004 Although it is extremely funny and a total joke per say, I do think when the person posted it they were actually serious. Why would I even say this? I took the time to read some of the other posts by thh author at that site, and this person definitely has some issues (read the "My Children Will Not Be Attending College" post), so reading this college post I do believe all of the other posts were definitely very real. So taking this into account, although we all view it as a joke, which it definitely is to anyone who knows anything, I think back when it was originally posted on Dec 2nd, 2001, the author was indeed serious about it.

KayMan2K Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 (edited) It starts off sooooo bad :( Most American families use trusted and responsible Internet Service Providers, such as AOL. and just gets worse... Popular hacker software includes "Comet Cursor", "Bonzi Buddy" and "Flash". I fear those who take this article seriously (and of course the author, for wiritng it as not a joke).

#47 Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 lol. :laugh: I pride myself that I have never had to spank a child, and I hope this guide will help other parents to put a halt to their son's misbehaviour before a spanking becomes necessary. Ahahah Popular hacker software includes "Comet Cursor", "Bonzi Buddy" and "Flash". AMD is a third-world based company who make inferior, "knock-off" copies of American processor chips. They use child labor extensively in their third world sweatshops Oh sh*t too many quotes............

SlowIce Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 i am sure it is not a joke for the person who wrote this article... I sure had fun reading it, since i know who hackers are and what they do (of course they wear pacifiers around their neck :-), but i remmebered a website i run into one time: It was a Christian Movie review - site,a nd EVERY movie was recommended as not to see.. I remember Harry Potter beeing marked as an attempt to interest children into Witchcraft to get them believing into God and so on... Was funny too, but: It is sad, that there are actually peopel out there who think like this. And even worse: other parents read it, and now some poor kids, not even interested in hacking, are gettign questioned by their parents and the computer time limited to '30 minutes' a day... Sorting out my Spam-Mail and answerign the rest take slonger then 30 Minutes already! I feel sorry for all the son's out there (yes, the author apparently believes only 'guys' can be hackers, not girls...) who have limited access to their computers because of somebody writing cr*p like this.....
