Feature request: /shakespeare/:name/:from returns ':name, Thou clay-brained guts, thou knotty-pated fool, thou whoreson obscene greasy tallow-catch! - :from' e.g. /shakespeare/Falstaff/Prince%20Henry returns 'Falstaff, Thou clay-brained guts, thou knotty-pated fool, thou whoreson obscene greasy tallow-catch! - Prince Henry'

I was thinking:

  /python/:from
returns 'Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries! -:from'

Not quite as classy, though.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

And if I was still able to flag submissions, I'd flag it.

And why can't you flag it? Is there a quota or something?

I've lost the ability to flag in the past couple of months, for no reason I can discern. I seldom used it unless I thought the story was very off-topic.

Only thing I can think of is accidentally fat-fingering flag on my phone, then a mod revoking my ability in retaliation.

This should use POST instead of GET, because you are proposing an action.

But the messaging system is idempotent! The behaviour of 3rd-party endpoints is undetermined.

This calls for a standard! The Fuck-Off Protocol, or FOP, will soon have an rfc, a mailing list, and three incompatible implementations.
