Is your child a hacker?

Oh my god!  Apparently I\'m a hacker too.  And only boys can be hackers.

This is so gay:



1. Has your son asked you to change ISPs?


2. Are you finding programs on your computer that you don\'t remember installing?


3. Has your child asked for new hardware?


4. Does your child read hacking manuals?


5. How much time does your child spend using the computer each day?


6. Does your son use Quake?


7. Is your son becoming argumentative and surly in his social behaviour?


8. Is your son obsessed with "Lunix"?


9. Has your son radically changed his appearance?


10. Is your son struggling academically?



Come on!  This guy is an idiot!

I have to say more about this.  This is absolutely absurd!

He\'s against AMD?

He\'s still thinks we\'re in the "Red Scare!"  Oh no!  It was made by a Soviet!  It must be bad!

Quake?  QUAKE?  Let\'s shelter the boy forever!  Oh!  OK!


This gets me the most:


 Hackers tend to dress in bright, day-glo colors. They may wear baggy pants, bright colored shirts and spiky hair dyed in bright colors to match their clothes. They may take to carrying "glow-sticks" and some wear pacifiers around their necks. (I have no idea why they do this) There are many such hackers in schools today, and your son may have started to associate with them.


First, he\'s an idiot, people have the pacifiers b/c of the effects of designer drugs.  Also, just because you have glow sticks and crazy hair doesn\'t mean he\'s a hacker, he\'s a raver, true you can be both, but most aren\'t.

Ignorance is futile.  I want to strangle this man.

LOL....

Yea parents, watch out for these signs in your son. If your daughter does stuff like that, it\'s just puberty.

Except parts 2,3,4 and 5, apparently they apply to daughters as well!

Aside from reading hacking manuals... I could very well be a hacker too, based on that!! Eek!

Yeah, hackers wear bright colours and pacifiers...

Flash is a hacking program... Really, I never knew that Flash, an graphics program, could be capable of hacking...

I would be more worried about this women then her son...

What\'s even more funny is the comments posted by readers.  I really hope the author of the article read them.

Wait this is kinda confusing, I do have Flash, which would make me an hacker, however I would never install crapware like comet cursor which would make me a non hacker, then again I do have an AMD processor which would make me an hacker, but on the other hand I\'d never ever install Bunzi Buddy which make me a non hacker.

This is strange indeed.

I read that a few months ago.  I\'m still not sure if someone made it as a joke or if someone out there is just THAT stupid.

I love the part about "lunix".  It\'s all amazing in it\'s ignorance though.  I don\'t know if a single thing said there was correct.

Haha, yeah, I read that like a month ago...

Comet Cursor - hacking software. Good God, at least it\'s fake, or else we\'d have some real problems on our hands :)

See Yuz.
What do Kerry Wood, Mark Prior, Matt Clement, and Carlos Zambrano have in common?

They\'re the pieces to the next great pitching rotation of our time, what else?

Yeah, I saw that quite a while ago, too.  I can\'t believe you guys thought that was real.
I\'ll think of a sig later.

Actually, the author DID write the article to the best of his knowledge.  However stupid it may seem he is really that dumb!!  Check out his profile on that website, he wrote 2 other articles and actively participates on the sites forum, 100% of his comments are serious with no joking around at all.  It really is amazing. :eek:

I feel EXTREMELY sorry for his kids, their dad is a true dumb@ss.
