Keeping with the original intent of this newsgroup, I have a rumor I'd
like to present: I understand that mail.bizarre is filled with immature
assholes who, despite having a mailing list to provide them with an outlet
for their inane comments, want to inundate otherwise interesting newsgroups
with crap. The rumor is that they think that anyone who doesn't like
what THEY think is fun are "stuffies", who deserve to have net.bizarre
shoved down their throats.
