You can't say I didn't warn you, Curmudgeon. You're not the only one who knows a "hacker". One e-mail to him was all it took and he cracked your shitty little site open like a fucking Easter egg.
You think its ok to insult people? You think its ok to have some God complex and that you're better than everyone else? Well I don't. And like I said, it was time someone did something about it. So now NO-ONE can post anything on your website. It's closed. It's done. It's OVER.
So you want a suitable quote to end all this, something you and your nerdy little friends might understand?
MARCUS WINS. FLAWLESS VICTORY.

Oh, come on - I had you all going for a while. Yes, folks - Marcus is, in fact, The Curmudgeon. So, sadly, there is no rabid anti-Curmudgeon lunatic out there, but happily, the site isn't hacked at all. I actually had this idea ages ago, but decided to keep it until April Fools. Annoyingly, real life got in the way and I couldn't give "Marcus" the full-scale treatment I had in mind, so I had to fast-forward from "ha ha, you're pathetic, Curmudgeon" Marcus to "you are evil incarnate, Curmudgeon" Marcus in about two days time. Basically he was every insult and "character analysis" I've ever had rolled into one, so obviously anything that was said (although I did try and keep insults aimed at just myself) are totally not true. Just a bit of fun, you know. I hate Christmas. Easter is pointless. Valentines Day is a con. But I love, love, love April Fools Day. My best one yet has to be shortly after my mother discovered Limewire, when she downloaded all the songs she's ever liked but didn't buy (or something like that), and I wrote her an e-mail (from Jack Napier - is it my fault if the woman doesn't know her Batman movies?) saying I was from F.A.C.T (Federation Against Copyright Theft) and I quoted her IP address (73191999 - 3 Prince songs rolled into one) and said her downloading activity was being monitored blah blah blah, she would be charged blah blah. End result? She wiped all the songs from her computer. So, yeah - just a bit of a gag you guys. And now Marcus will be confined to history. But isn't it a scary Sign o' the Times that someone like Marcus, and hacking into this site, is such an easily believable reality? Anyway, that's me for another year. Happy April Fools to all.

Bwah-ha-ha. I was fully expecting to log on today and find something along those lines, though I wasn't about to ruin the joke ahead of time. Still, it's a bit sad; I kind of like the idea of a pet troll. Well, there's always plenty of douchebags on Amazon.

I had my suspicions after reading the latest Marcus thread last night. I would have been quite embarassed if I had taken The Curmudgeon's tricks hook, line, and sinker two years in a row...

That was fucking quality Cur. If it wasn't for the date, which had a vague alarm bell ringing, I'd have swallowed the whole caboodle.
I thought about giving the silly cunt an online mouthful but bottled out, on the off-chance he might send me a virus!
I guess I'm a bit more naive and less world-weary than some of the guys on here - and I kinda like it like that.
You're a nasty bit of work Cur and I take my hat off to you...

You're a nasty bit of work Cur There can't be many websites where a comment like that is a compliment. On the subject of people sending viruses, is that even possible? I've been threatened with it SO many times and I've always laughed it off. Can that actually be done?

Actually, it IS possible to send a virus. The "malicious code" can be attached to some sort of file (a picture, sound or document file) and can be sent either email OR of course if you happen upon the file while using your machine. In most cases, the file has to be opened in some way in order to wreck havoc, BUT it doesn't mean that it's not possible to receive a "ticking time bomb...." like you're from New York. I just want to say that I think some of the BEST comedy in the world happens when the person pulling the prank can keep a straight face while the effect of the prank begins to take hold of the audience it's intended for. You're certifiable, The Curmudgeon! You know that? I laughed my ass off at this prank and I'm sure that time will tell a different story someday soon about who got who. Or, in the words of Monty Python:
