Well, how bloody patronising. The reason I haven't isn't because I
don't know how, it's because it would be a completely stupid idea. I
thought my original message was quite obviously a piss-take, but
evidently even the most blatant and unsubtle humour flies way over
your head. In future, I'll surround any jokes with a flashing neon
sign saying "THIS IS WRITTEN WITH NOT ENTIRELY SERIOUS INTENT", maybe
then you'll get the point.
And by forwarding spam messages, you've become a spammer yourself, so
you can stop that right now. Thank-you.
