"Just FYI, it appears there is a bug in wget while using a proxy that allows wget to be forced to use the FTP port and thereby unmask the user's IP (normal usage) or at least leak the user's network adapter IP (in TAILS)."

    No, I do not care enough to start a hate site. You must be a loyal XKCD reader since your puny mind cannot comprehend that there is more than one person who happens to hate XKCD. Speaking of hate, have you seen how smugly hateful the latest comic is? This is truly condescending and an insult to the reader.

    You see, I prefer a more blunt approach. You, the reader, are a stupid fucking shit. Fuck you, reader, you fucking cunt.

      Now I have. It was the third panel that got to you, wasn't it?

      You really shouldn't get so mad just because you aren't smart enough to get his jokes. Copying and pasting from Google searches has carried you this far, and you've duped your co-workers into thinking that you know what you're talking about, but when someone makes a clever Unix joke you laugh (although a bit embarrassingly too loud), but you try to hide the shame you feel because you know that you'll never be more than the script kiddie you are.
