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.

I'd like to be sure that Milk Dud (or other) slingers have had weapons training and have qualified on the range so they hit the person they aim for, and not the innocent.

Also, harder isn't necessarily better...I think nice soft gooey in the hair/beard could be...rewarding for those watching.
