Signs of a BOFHish sense of humour

[Niklas Karlsson]

It seems there are signs of BOFHish humour in our SE Asian branch
office. Always a pleasure to see. Came across this in some old docs:

--------------------
So, you... An Avenger[0], has decided to tackle the License Server...
You are a brave man/woman.

outdated, vulnerability-ridden POS]

Step 3: Get into a Fetal position and roll around on the floor
helplessly.
Step 4: Cry somemore.
--------------------

I'm willing to overlook the slightly broken English considering the
general sentiment. And from taking a look at that license server, it is
indeed an antique, festering pile of hyena droppings[1].

pleasant to deal with.

The fundamental purpose of a licence server is to prevent you from
running code. If it doesn't get to do that once in a while, it feels
useless and gets whimsical.
