...I just wanted to make sure all of you know that this exists, and is actually a very useful weapon in the fight against evil. Please, for the love of God, use this knowledge well.

Just don't use it.

Not that anyone on cB does.

Yeah, who would do that?

One day, there will be a superhero with the power of sarcasm! And then we will all be saved. Yupyup.

Of course not..

Teacher says, "Your child is very sarcastic."
Father says, "Sarcastic? Why, not at all!"
Mother says, "Gee, I wonder where she got that from. -evil glare-"

Okay, okay. There's a useless post that has pretty much nothing to do with your topic!
