Retard Of he Year
The Infamous "Child Fun" unsolicited Email
Thousands of people across the country got a suprise in their Email box on 10-21-96. Some unknown person, apparently either a complete bastard pulling a hideous pank on someone, or a genuine retard infatuated by kiddie-porn, used up several free AOL disks (You know -- they practically give them away), and sent a solicitation for Child Pornography to unsuspecting net users all across the world. America Online, due to the enormous response to these letters, closed the free accounts right away, and called the FBI to investigate the matter.
Yes, yours trully was one of the recipients of this now infamous ad. It brought rage to me, to think that I would be suspected of wanting child pornography -- that I would be included on a list of potential customers. On the other hand, I laughed my ass off, thinking what a complete retard this moron was for including his name and address in the ad. If this guy is for real, he's essentially setting himself up for arrest, by including his name and address, and well, he'll get what he deserves.
Here's the letter:

If this is a prank, and the person whose name is on the end of the letter is it's hapless victim, his life will be turned into shit unjustifiably. The FBI is going to be on this poor sucker's ass for years to come. His mail will be opened, his trash will be inspected, his phone will be tapped, and his life will be plagued by people following him everywhere. I don't care what this guy did to earn someone's hatred. Nobody deserves to have this kind of prank pulled on them, unless they really are child-molesters or kiddie-porn collectors.
On the other hand, though -- I gotta hand it to the alleged prankster. This really is a great prank of mammoth proportions, and George Hayduke would be proud of him!
