Can't resist:

In greatest secrecy a few years ago, the first human clone experiment was
held. Naturally, they had to start with a real live human being as an
original. Since the experiment was being done in secret, nobody except the
volunteer and the experimenters knew that this was done. Not the poor gus
(you'll see why in a second) boss, not his wife, nobody but him and the
experimenters.

The cloning was a huge success. The produced a clone, and raised it to
maturity in about a year. It had all of the volunteers memories, habits,
etc. In fact, the clone was totally and completely indistinguishable from
the original, except that the clone was incredibly obscene. The volunteer
was a meek fellow who never unrotated net.jokes, whereas everything the
clone posted (on the volunteers id, of course) should have been rotated,
but none of it was.

This eventually led to problems for the volunteer. He lost his job. He lost
his wife. Even his dog left him. At wits end, he went back to the
experimenters, asking for a solution. They gave him a plan, which he
decided use.

So, the poor guy goes to the clone, professing that he wishes to bury
the hatchet (he didn't mention that he wanted to bury the clone, too).
To symbolize the new freindship between him and the clone, the p.g.
asks the clone on a picnic out to the local view. You know the kind
of place - on top of a mountain overlooking the local cute small town,
with a cliff going downtown.

As you would expect, the clone gets pushed over the cliff, thus dying
and making the p.g. life much easier. This is, of course, the first
recorded case of an obscene clone fall.
