So, I read a post on usemycomputer.com that I think is funny and I thought was written by John Cleese. I decide, as Camie notes, after a bit of fun with a young lass I know, to write a counter-rant to the rant. Then I send it to usemycomputer.com. -- thanks for link, guys! -- and they post it, creating the Greatest Day for The SiteMeter of Fluffy Stuffin'.
And then it turns out the thing wasn't written by Cleese, just some generic ill-tempered anti-American dude!
Ah, well, the net in a nutshell...
