Ah, mock_the_stupid, how I love thee.

The OP explains how he posted a link in his journal with the warning "don't click this link, it will do crazy things to your computer, you have been warned." A young boy clicks the link at school and gets in trouble. (The link is apparently to a porn search engine.) The kid's parents ask the OP to write a letter to the school explaining that it was a joke--"internet humor," as someone else phrases it--and that it was basically a curiosity-kills-the-cat thing, and not an intentional attempt on the kid's part to get to porn.

The OP refuses: "I replied that I would do nothing of the sort, and if his son has problems following simple instructions he deserves every kick up the arse he gets. I ask you, people of mock_the_stupid.. which part of 'do not click this link' did he fail to understand, and secondly, how many of you have just clicked the link?"

Others tell the OP he's a jerk, and the OP insists that they're morons, too. Wank ensues. I understand the OP's point, but... he's being sort of self-righteous about making it. Over and over and over, in fact.
