Hold on I’m laughing…

Hold on.

Okay I’m done. I was reading through Slashdot today (forgive me, please) and came across this lovely story of a possible automated instant messaging worm attack. Ones that *gasp* don’t require a malacious link to click on.

That last sentence just makes me laugh. In fact, the entire concept of IM worms just makes me laugh. It’s pure genious! Set up a virus that embeds itself into your favorite instant messaging program because you were too retarded to not fully read the link your BEST BUDDY sent you, no matter how many wonderful file extensions are on the end. The bottom line is, these viruses prey on your stupidity. Why bother fighting it? Why not just sit back and let these viruses eliminate morons from instant messaging altogether! They should’ve come up with this years ago when people browsing DALnet constantly spamming whatever channel you were in with the promise of hot cyber sex was considered very annoying.

Pity.
