back to article Look out, Dixon! That there is a dangerously intellectual cow

What's that lumbering over the horizon, groaning theatrically? Yes, it's the late, unlamented corpse of Comment of the Week, reanimated for your reading pleasure. What glorious nuggets have you lot deposited below the line this week, then? We open the batting order with the obvious pop at Linux from a Microsoft fan. …

    How did all my fellow Linuxtards miss the sarcasm in that first COTW? Buncha hardcore 'spergs? Never seen Win8.x? Even XFCE has more bling than this throwback to the 80s. And in terms of technical fuckery, systemd's got nothing on it.

      It has to be said that the Lintards are second only to the Mac fanbois when it comes to producing a feeding frenzy with the right bait....

      I'm pretty much the poster child for hard-core 'spergs right down to having clothes bought by others, OCD-like patterning for all activities, yada, yada. Even I got the OTT sarcasm there. Fine piece of work worthy of an award. Offering the best comp I can think of - - >

    so CoTW isn't "Cow of the week"? Oh dear......

    By the way, that picture is of a Swiss cow. The ones that make Swiss cheese. Don't think you'll find many in Newcastle. They're usually black and white, often striped

      Shouldn't they have holes in them, then?
