  When the aliens come, OSTG will save themselves by offering up the posters and moderators of such comments for involuntary sterilization.

  I tell myself that to sleep at night.

    What happens if the aliens are zombies, and came to Earth in search of Brains?

      Okay, think about that statement. Are they likely to come to "Earth" in search of brains? I think not.

        They'll want my brain. It's pre-stewed.

  Slashdot readers aren't the only ones with an unfunny bone. Apparently Scott Adams has to deal with these folks too:

    My dad recently came to know Scott Adams. He married a woman who works at the tennis club my dad goes to, or something. Adams gave my dad an autographed calendar recently when my dad tried, and failed, to get one during the recent Christmas party (one of those where you can keep trading gifts). I hope my dad didn't make that suggestion. :-)
    
    But yeah, we've posted stories out of peer pressure on Slashdot. Sometimes you just want to do it to get people to stop submitting it.
