Elder Days Story Time:

Aeons ago, I was a) 16 and b) hanging out in the IRC channel for one of the alt.fan newsgroups<1>, and people started quoting various song lyrics<2>. Like you do. Heavy Fuel popped onto the stereo, and I'm like "hell yeah, this song is awesome, I should share it with the class!"

So, I'm typing away, and in the middle of it, an older guy (looking back, he was probably younger than I am now, but..) who had a problem with the "kids" in the channel being annoying joins right as I get to the part "I had sixteen hamburgers, scotch all night, nicotine for breakfast just to put me right". So he gets a danish and then kickbans me /m "Lying little twat".

I couldn't decide if I wanted to like, throw a ragefest and do, I dunno, something nasty to him <3> or just slow clap at how dumb he was. One of my eternal regrets is that I never got logs for what happened right after that. :)

<1> Because I was one of the COOL kids when I was 16, lemme tell you.
<2> Because why be on topic in any IRC channel devoted to a thing?
<3> Being as he was, iirc, in Glasgow, this was probably a non-starter
