I'm a horrible monster that deserves death.

Instead of working, so far today I've posted at least four inflammatary comments over various inter- and intra-net forums, virtually begging to be dragged into the kind of net.flame.war I profess to despise. One of them was even a detailed line-by-line inline response, which ended with a quasi-flame -- like a throwback to the mid-nineties.

Engage self-loathing circuits... now.
