Telnet is simpler... I call this my random insult service and it can run on any TCP port. It's not as rude as saying "Fuck Off" as it is meant to be humorous and is intended for all the script-kiddie port scanners out there: telnet 108.4.184.93

This is great! In case anyone without telnet wants to see: here are 46 insults from that telnet service. http://pastebin.com/6SP2PucG I'm partial to "Your IQ is the same as the temperature in this room. And it's cold in here."

That was inspired by this Great Santini quote:

That was the man who dandled me on his knee when I was a young boy—the Great Santini. I once introduced my father when I was giving a talk like this, and I said, "My father decided to go in the Marine Corps when he found out that his IQ was the temperature of this room."

My father got up right behind me. He stared down at the audience and he said, "My God, it's hot in here. . . it must be at least 165 degrees."

I too feel this pain acutely, to combat it I wrote a small and VERY basic JavaScript file a while ago to change this on the fly on a webpage based on your GeoIP location. https://github.com/MartinMcGirk/English.JS

The question is, which spelling do Canadians get?

Canada was a toughie that I meant to get around to later. I was working from the reference at http://wikitravel.org/en/English_language_varieties which has three categories of English; "Commonwealth English", "US English" and "Canada".

It didn't really give me enough detail on Canadian English to create a new category there and then though so I left it as a "I should get around to looking this up soon".

My apologies to the fine people of Canada. I'll look at rectifying it shortly.

US, unfortunately. I'm not convinced of the accuracy of the script's list of commonwealth countries. I could have sworn Canada was part of the commonwealth. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Member_states_of_the_Commonwea...

It is a very valuable member of the Commonwealth, but as I understand it it uses a mix of Commonwealth English and US English and I didn't get round to including it as an option.

Nicely done. It needs:

  /thanks/:from

returns 'Fuck you very much. - :from.'

My one feature request would be to have the word proceeding 'fuck' as an argument:

/:thing/:from Will return content of the form 'Fuck :thing. -:from' e.g. /SaaS/Foaas will return 'Fuck SaaS. -Foaas'

Which ever one Tim Horton's uses!

Tragically, Tim Hortons writes "donut", I believe. If we petition them, maybe they'll apologize and change it.

You know the way to our hearts. Personally, I think defaulting to Commonwealth is sufficient for Canadians. On a side note, does it pluralize "octopus" differently by region? I've always been a big fan of "octopodes" as the plural, which is not really accepted anyways.

So, GMail filters other people spam and put their own paid spam directly on inbox. Brilliant!

You don't have to remark about cold in most of the world.

35 centigrade degrees is very hot.
