I think Knud was just being ironic, and besides we do that a lot in Denmark. The
people who are worst at it are some of the most gay people I know, just like my
turkish friends can tell some quite harsh immigration jokes.

No harm intended and all..

I still get bounces on several advisories where AV vendors labelled my example
code as a virus. We all know that AV vendors are happy to treat the symptom
instead of fixing the problem, so what?
