In the meantime, yes, I should be looking for someone
who wants me to RIP off her TCP Wrappers and fondle
her TTLs while sniffing her packets. Maybe something
kinky, like my own chroot jail, where I'd brute-force
her buffer and bash the shell out of her. She'd take
a huge coredump on me while IP in her hair before we'd
wipe off with so many rolls of FTP that you wouldn't
be able to flush it.
We would make compile for, like, four hours straight,
and after spoofing her headers with my SQL injection,
I might be left with nothing but an empty string.
Hello World, I say.
The traditional "unzip, strip, touch, finger, grep,
mount, fsck, more, yes, umount, sleep" has nothing on
this. Hope I wasn't too graphical.
