Simon: I'm trying to put this as delicately as I can... How do I know you won't kill me in my sleep? Mal: You don't know me, son. So let me explain this to you once: If I ever kill you, you'll be awake, you'll be facing me, and you'll be armed.

Does that mean that posting a bad joke is illegal if you don't use your real name?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm curious to know how the fuck anyone's ever going to press charges anyway.

Does the first amendment say you have to be identifiable?

Good luck to them all.

I also skipped. How are people?

Don't tell her. Let her suffer for her sin of skippage.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

So, I'm free to annoy all of you FUCKOS.

Perkins, you just watch yourself.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Be outright in your annoyingness!!

Yeah, the "intent to annoy" phrase also makes no sense to me. But also, like, since when is somebody on alt.sports.football calling someone else a doo-doo head worth making a federal case out of?

Unless the fines are going directly into the federal coffers? And the fines are enormous, and actually a source of profit? And, the internet being what it is, there are eleventy hundred kajillion offenses, each one with an enormous fine?

How to balance the federal budget while demolishing the income tax!!

Hey you're not really Allyson, you're Rio. Busted.

Anonymous trolls now a federal crime:

You've got to be kidding me.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I DON'T THINK THAT'S YOUR REAL NAME AT ALL, "NUTTY".

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

But also, like, since when is somebody on alt.sports.football calling someone else a doo-doo head worth making a federal case out of?

Since someone told Dubya about alt.bush.sucks?

Apparently this is an extension of a preexisting law against anonymous crank calling, which also seems silly to me. If someone is harrassing you to the point where you can press harrassment charges against them, why do we need a law spelling out the means by which harrassment is not allowed?
