A sysadmin has been dispatched to your location to serve justice. Please do not resist.No updates on a Friday. No updates in the week before Christmas.
These are the rules. You deserve everything that is coming.
We all know that rules are written in blood. Mostly the victim's.
Some, the offender's.
