Re: 10 Signs that your son is a hacker.

There is a serious danger that has not been mentioned, and that is SOMEONE WILL TAKE THIS ARTICLE SERIOUSLY.
If you read this entire thread you realize that it took a lot of thinking before someone pointed out that this was a JOKE. If took this many intelligent individuals at ChiefDelphi, then what will happen if a parent goes around the Internet and comes across this article? Imagine what the thoughts going through his or her mind:

"Oh, no! What have I done to Jimmy's young mind?! I must burn his laptop or else its the electric chair!!! What kind of parent am I, to do this to my own son?!!"

Ma'am, you're just insane.

The problem with satire is that sometimes its humor is a little too subtle.
