As many of you know, one Shoeboy, Adequacy editor and database hacker, made an April Fool's day post to the LKML (Linux Kernel Mailing List) over 6 months ago. Most of it was based on a certain piece of writing by yours truly, Trollaxor. This seems innocuous enough except that Shoeboy, in using my work, was plagiarising.

[editor's note, by shoebot] Trollaxor is leaving out a few key details here. The most important bit was that I fully admit to being a plagiarist. I am also completely aware that I have no talent. But at least I have a girlfriend/surrogate mother whose bosom I can weep into like a frightened girl. I have deleted most of Trollaxor's diary because I am ashamed and embarrassed.
