Honorable Guild For Ending Deleterious Curly Bracket Abuse
25 April, 2003
"What kind of terrorist breaks a web board with excessive hugging, anyway?!? It's obviously unAmerican," said an HGFEDCBA activist who would only go by the pseudonym "americaRulesExceptForThoseStupidProtesters," as he attempted to picket in front of the offending post. His demonstration was brutally put down when his wife told him to stop standing in front of the monitor so she could check her email.
Other group members have started using "}" and "{" instead, stating, "We'll never again abuse those poor letter.. er, symbol things to convey warmth and caring." Whether these members realize that "}HGFEDCBA{" has come to imply a stranglehold is unknown. They did suggest that this reporter could expect a number of hugs for informing the world of their cause. |
