I am looking at the latest post in Bureau. In actual fact, I am typing it. This a Philip K. Dick moment, isn't it?
Am I too on the nose? Is it really my nose?
Oh, Gawd!
Will Tom Cruise butcher my story when it is filmed?
Yes, there is. There's a hurry, Xander. I'm dying...I may have as few as fifty years left.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I would never mock you on your birthday... much...

Shouldn't the post be deleted as well?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I think the post should be deleted. Otherwise, it's still serving its advertising function, which could be an incentive for more spam.

I deleted it, too.
Edited, actually, explaining that it was spam.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm not sure how the poster stood to make any money from that post though.
How is it spam?

No s/he's not. I can go to domaindiscover.com and register them both right now. The domains had dropped, s/he said. Your registrar of choice gets the money.

He thinks we're stupid and would rush over to the registrar that is his user name?
I dunno, it just felt spammy to me.
