Former title: "Um." New title: "HOORAY RANDOMNESS"

So I go to clean out my Apache server logs after WAY too long (the access log is 45 megs...), and find a few variations of the following weirdness therein:

Wtfnord?

Heh. And in the error log, a whole bunch of "request failed: URI too long" No, really?

I do wonder what a URI is, though.

BUY ME ONE

Pasting from SocialMUX since I'm lazy:
[cilbuP] Owner of Chris's eyebrows, Jenny says, "So my social informatics instructor is talking about back before radio got regulated and stuff you'd have several stations all fighting for the same frequency thingie, and if you tried to tune into one you'd get several, and the ones with the bigger transformers would overpower the ones wiwth the smaller transformers."
[cilbuP] Owner of Chris's eyebrows, Jenny says, "So naturally I'm trying not to laugh, mentally picturing Optimus Prime beating up a small Decepticon."

And now to possibly do some of the lots of work that I have.
