Its like people who walk in front of traffic to prove that they exist I
think... doesn't make sense unless you are the one desperate enough to
waste your time doing it

I've always wonder why people spend so much time creating viruses.
There is nothing to be gained from it. They get no monetary value. The

get no fame. It's all a big, destructive, (im)practical joke. Stupid.

I just can't believe people waste their time on it. But, then again, it

always baffles me that there can be so many losers in our society today
in all aspects of the term. People are hard to comprehend.
