    How not to steal a sidekick

    I've been glued to my computer following this huge "moral online mob" for the past 3 days.

    It's way out there I know, but, it has been so addictive I had to share it with you guys. (Every one in my office is following the forums posted on the web page).

    It's almost as huge as Star Wars kid and Looter guy, check it out and be ready to have some very mixed opinions.

    Too damned funny!!!
    Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me! I want people to know why I look this way. I've traveled a long way, and some of the roads weren't paved.

    OMG! How funny! I had to print it up for my aunt to take home and read. BTW It's 10 very full pages so far.

    Yeap, hasn't replied yet. He has been recieving an average of thousands of emails from all over the world, and the "mob" has already broken 3 servers to to excess traffic. Yesterday there where over 500 users on google groups in less than 30 minutes.

    Food for thought on an event that happened in China, internet hunting, or I would say linching.

    Wow he has updated 3 times since I last read 4 hours ago. This is funny stuff but the last update is kinda serious. I believe him.

    I skimmed this (it's midnight right now) but boy.... The words "slammerhead", "knucklehead," "jerk" and others come to mind. I hope karma bites these people on their rears.

    Reminds me of that Seinfeld episode in which someone takes his car and he calls the phone in the car.

    I'm not too knowledgable about what this guy was talking about (plus it's midnight) but it makes me glad I have a crummy little pay as you go type of cell. If it gets lost, I can call Virgin and transfer my balance to a new phone (a replacement I can get for as little as $30). Plus all I have to do is reprogram in maybe 10 to 20 phone numbers for my contact list. Plus, the battery's not doing too well and whoever finds the phone won't have my charger.

    He just posted the police reports for all non-believers, I got to work at 5 am today and the first thing I did is check the updates and the "oficial linch mob forum".

    Have you seen all of the photoshop images they have made of these poor souls.

    A few crazy people have gone as far as visiting them at Corona, in NY.

    It will probably die down during the weekend, but, you can never know how Internet communities will react.

    I do not see this ending very well for the person that has the sidekick.

    I'm thinking maybe his friends are egging him on for all the publicity. They're laughing that these people can't get their sidekick back (unless someone who knows them sics the police on them).
