I’m not sure where and when we all went off course in how much we fear and don’t understand and obsess about computer viruses. Is it when we stopped downloading stuff from Kazaa? Is it when we all got Macs? Is it when the local news stopped doing hard-hitting reports on the insidious people who CREATE computer viruses and spread them throughout college campus and also telephone lines everywhere, probably in your house right now? UGH, GUYS! That’s the thing about computer viruses! They wait until your guard is down — right when you think you’ve got your computer stuff under control — and then they strike! Haven’t you learned anything from this news report that you haven’t watched yet from 1988? I’m not sure how you guys are even ON your computers right now, as virus-filled as I imagine they are. Please, do yourself a favor:
Pay no attention to the fact that nothing even happened at all. Put your computer in the closet and close the door! They’re coming for us! FROM CALIFORNIA, MAYBE! (Via VVV.)

I’m glad someone was able to find a good use for E.T. on the Atari 2600.

“How insidious was this virus?”
“Oh, about yea insidious? Maybe? I have no fucking idea, really, because I do not own a computer, because I am Amish.”

Coming this fall in Part-Time Virus Hunter on the History Channel.
Considering the time period, I’m surprised they didn’t think it was only a gay computer virus.

“Just as we’ve become totally dependent on our computers…”
Ha, no. I remember 1988 pretty well, and I seem to remember 99% of people never using a computer for anything ever. The other 1% were either playing videogames or featured in this news report.
I AM FINALLY IN THE 1%!!! YAAAAAAAY!

The suspect… somewhere… a dark genius.
HA!!!!
Also, if the virus came from California and was spread through the MIT computer labs at night, I will bet all the motherboards in the world that it was some stupid list about why Caltech sucks.
You guys.
Amateur my ass, that was done by a pro.
