Subject:Rude word From:Iain Harrison <iharrison -at- SCT -dot- CO -dot- UK> Date:Tue, 17 Sep 1996 09:49:57 GMT
Once upon a time, a techwhirler posted a rude word.
It offended me, but I ignored it.
Someone reposted it to say how rude it was.
Someone else reposted the repost to say how rude it was.
I hope it stopped there...
Is this a sort of vicarious attempt to post the rude word as much as possible?
Is it an attempt on a snowball me-too chain?
