Subject:: more annoying than "late" in the subject line

If you ask me, I'm getting far more annoyed by the posts from people screaming at the top of their keyboards for the drug conversation to stop than I was by the drug conversation itself. If you don't like something someone is posting, delete it. There have already been more than enough calls for the thread to stop (2 should have done it), so if you see another post on the subject come through (besides this one ;) why not send your ARRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHH PLEEEEEEZE STOP!!!!!!!!!!! etc. to the offending poster themselves, maybe 10 or 20 times for good measure? This happens on just about every mailing list. An annoying thread won't die, and then a dozen more posts come through from people whining and carrying on about how they wish the thread would stop. Cease & desist. Mike

It's used by orbital in The Moebius (on the green album) and in Time becomes (on the brown album). I beleive it's from an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation Cosmic

Or was it the Terminator? No, no, no. It's from that MST3K episode where Frank and Dr Forrester finally actually kill Joel and reanimate the body as Mike.
