This may have well been the work of Stalin, but it comes from something worse - even more cold and random: The brutal reign of the all powerful Big Mistake. He is everywhere - a ghost in our machines - a force to be reckoned with - an accident waiting to happen again and again. It will lead us all to madness! The example below will reveal just how demonic Mr. Big Mistake can be, for he has slaughtered my most groovy community!
It haunts me like it was only 4 days ago. I frolicked into my elitist community,
indie_lifestyle, merely to send a membership invitation to someone on a lark. What would come my way I could hardly have imagined in my darkest nightmares!It took me four tries, sending out that invitation. I was blocked by big mistakes and error messages.

It was a bloodbath! The population was decimated. So many free-thinking, art-loving spirits, lost to the bells and whistles of internet entropy - to the political whims of random mechanical mayhem - to a bloody appetite even greater than Frank the Goat's!
