I read it some years ago. And now read it again.

I wanted to say: "Frankly, no, I didn´t get the hang on how this document
gives threating to insult pets and hamsters of developers or the insulting
itself any approval."

But now I ask:

"Is this about the humor part in there?"


Well as much as I believe that insulting someone tells at least as much about
the insulter as the insulted, I believe that my bothering about the threat to
curse people tells much about me, the botherer.


So if it works for everybody else…
