This comment from a daily_kos post about the Yearly Kos convention in Chicago just amused the heck out of me:

Next year I'm bringing my slingshot. Anyone who stands up to ask a question but instead makes a bunch of preliminary comments and then bundles four questions into one will get a Milk Dud in the back of the head. This also applies to anyone who fails to turn off their cellphone.

They're at every con, regardless of genre/subject matter. They are ubiquitous. Across the Universe. They will not be absorbed. They are the bane of moderators everywhere.

Official Milkdud Slingers

[(Anonymous)]

I hereby volunteer for the position of Official Milkdud Slinger. I'm sure that I can come up with a design for a rapid fire Milkdud cannon, and will lend my keen sense of who needs a blast in the ear to this fine cause. Unless I get hungry, in which case I may have to eat the ammo.
