The case is closed (though Thompson won't admit it), and the wicked witch is finally dead:

I propose we make September 25th a national holiday.

    This had better go up as a holiday by the end of the week on my geek calendar. Come on, Internets: don’t fail me. Though, now that he is gone, is this truly a good thing? He has left a hole in the jackass continuum, a power vacuum which must be filled, just as ineffective creationism was replaced with the much harder to legally handle Intelligent Design. Will the new Jack just be better and stronger than the one before?

    Edit* I forgot a question mark? Wow, Mr. Period is back in full force :S.
    Double Edit* A colon after Internets? I don’t even know what grammar rule that is. *looks for grade three English notes*

    That was quite profound, considering the mind-boggling use of the red pen.

    He doesn't matter enough for his demise to warrant a holiday.

    No, he doesn't. But I hate him enough to celebrate it. He represents two things I strongly dislike: right-wing nut-jobs and scum-bag lawyers that give the profession a bad name.

    To celebrate his downfall is to acknowledge that he mattered in any way. He didn't. He was a scuzzy, attention seeking, grasping, opportunistic, close-minded little man. It is like swatting a fly, the following day you won't even remember the fly existed.

    Can't you let a lonely, petty man have his juvenile moment of happiness? Why must you abuse me with your logic? :-D

    Yes and we will all ROFL at it until his corpse decay in his hell hole six feet under!

    I did a English paper last week in which we had to use satir and I, of course, used "video games do make you violent" and during which I used a line like, " That goddess Jack Thompson is on the case!"

    Don't mind that. It's just a bad and sexist attempt at making a joke.

    Isn't it sad that I just assumed he had misspelled it, and that he really meant "Thank goodness Jack Thompson is on the case!"?
