Dirt on LAN

Saw Monsters Inc yesterday night. Nice movie. Downloaded it off LAN. Downloading movies off LAN, along with other things. got both the Matrix sequels today, and watched the first one. Funny the things that you get on LAN. Many people have these files which tel you how to sabotage stuff, how to commit suicide, how to cause havoc in class, and basically how to be one of those anarchist. Downloaded a few out of curiosity, and it was damn disturbing.

For example, this text file had details on how to commit suicide. By details I mean which chemicals to ask for, which household substances to use, and for more painful methods, exactly how to cut up your wrists or to tie a knot so that you do not survive. Seems that you inject almost anything directly into your blood stream (even air), you die.

Most of these files have disclaimers akin to "the techniques contained are for information purposes only. Their usage in real life is not encouraged." the next line is always something like "now that that's done, let me give you the shit." The one on suicide had something even more... erm... amusing. "This file is provided for the purposes of amusement, and the actual use of any of these methods is not recommended without first considering other possibilities, such as dying of old age."

The text files are frighteningly professional, with a bibliography included too. There are actually books written for people who want to commit suicide? Unimaginable. "Final Exit: The Practicalities of Self-Deliverance and Assisted Suicide for the Dying" Derek Humphrey (publisher: Hemlock) is one example. If you overlook the funny files on how to attract a girl (using certain pheromones, and taking a suitable diet), how to increase your penis size (some exercise which requires one to massage it in the early mornings in specific ways), and table manners, there are books on carjacking, hacking, secret recipes, stealing from vending machines, lock picking, animal, and worst of all, human torture. Here is some text from a file which shows how to torture someone using an oven.

Well...I guess you know what to do. Turn on the oven and place his head inside it and keep it there until he speaks.

Well, that might be enough to drive home the point of what I am going to say, but there is more:

Me and my friend tried a rather advanced method last year, when we needed to know where our neighbor had his money. We placed his new-born child in the oven and turned it on.

They could have stopped there, I am sure they didn't actually do it, but writing it as if its something cool shows that you are almost as deranged.

He talked quick. But we didn't really care about the money, we just wanted to have some fun.

"Fun", apparently turns out to be:

We forced his wife to eat the dead child afterwards. Ha, good ol' days

Hmmm, I wonder how these self-professed suicide experts are alive and well to write articles.
