Pranked, for reals!

Hi everyone!

I actually got back from vacation a couple of days ago, but haven't updated yet since I was far too busy laughing at the posts that Sean and Ben put up. Honestly, I was crying laughing at one point. It was clear that it was a group effort, since Ben is just not capable of referencing Xanth marginalia, and Sean couldn't touch /etc/localtime with a ten-ft pole (also, Ben has a serious bug in his skirts about Daylight Savings Time).

The thing that upset me the most about the hijack was the fact that not only were they really funny, but they were way funnier than I usually am, in the exact same voice that I use. What's the point, really?

I do want to mention that the Freecell post strikes very close to home, since when I was in college, a girlfriend of mine actually did something very similar to me to get back at my being a jerk about something. Except instead of resetting my stats, she just sat there for an hour when I was at class, starting and resetting games, so instead of having no stats, I had horrible stats (which is considerably worse, since my options are having horrible stats, or having to make the decision to pull the trigger of resetting my stats myself, which is surprisingly painful [although I later learned that the stats are kept in the Windows Registry, which makes the entire process not so painful. {Except for the betrayal, of course, but as I'm just coming back from a honeymoon, I can hardly suggest it wasn't for the best}]).

In anycase - huge.

Update - I'm led to understand Ton had something to do with this outrage as well. I shan't forget this, Tickles!
