back to article White House warns El Reg over kitten-killing content

I fear this may be the last copy I ever file, following a chilling warning from the White House regarding stories I may or may not write next week, and which could have devastating consequences for the future of humanity. Earlier today, I ill-advisedly posted a rather tasty flame from "cockhead@dickhead.com", pre-objecting to …

    It's a fake

    That's not a real note from any politician in the US, as demonstrated by the lack of the expression "American Values" (at least once per sentence, it's law).

      and . . .

      . . .there's also no ad-break or product placement.

      Also,

      Barack is a very smart lawyer, he'd have done it the lawyerly way (i.e., with a super-injunction).

      Probably the CIA would implement it for him --- so you wouldn't even know there's an injunction, your keyboard would just refuse to type the statements concerned.

    If it was, the last two sentences would read:

    We know where you live. And if we're wrong, we'll slaughter the innocent civilians living there anyway, and it will all be your fault.

    I believe the correct phrase is: " Can I haz ur stuff?"

      No no no...

      That's incorrect lolspeak.

      This -> "I can haz ur stuffs?"

      You have to invert the subject and the verb in a query and generally make as many other spelling or grammatical mistakes as humanly possibly.

        To my knowledge

        this is from a Simpsons 'Tree House of Horror' episode where Monty burns plans a trip to 'Ape Island' and needs bait (to capture the giant ape), which leads to Marge joining the expedition. Smithers then says the aforementioned line.

        did I just say all that?

    The men who ride such a chopper have spunk, I'll say that much. I've heard that with stealth and cunning such a chopper can penetrate even the most heavily guarded inner circle. Just be careful it doesn't leave you weeping after unexpectedly breaching your back door one night...
