One of the guys here talked about losing internet newsgroups and some of us

The end of usenet is when idiots decide a newsgroup is a hangout and
they post all kinds of off-topic junk rather than go where the discussion
belongs.

Yes, it's bad enough that someone posted here about their usenet problem,
when there are plenty of newsgroups including local, where they could
have posted.

But now you start another thread of an even more off-topic nature, and
then let it slide further off topic, and you are the major poster in this
thread.

You've just helped to kill newsgroups, idiot.
