Trolololol this was a joke... it's ancient lol :P

Yes, I totally agree.

Linux is an illegal operating system created by a communist "Linus Torvalds". If you use it you are helping out the communist nations by allowing them access to your details, and when the time comes they will recruit you for their communist regime.

Use Genuine Windows to make sure you are helping the Capitalist Freedom Fighters keep us free and safe from the communist scum!

As you are probably aware, most communist software goes under the guise of "Open Source". Easy way to spot communist softwares are as follows:
Do they have a major company backing them? If so, they're not communist and have a way of making money from it.
Do they offer products you have to pay for? If so, they're not communist and have a way of making money from it.
Do they support major infrastructure and redevelopment? If so, they're not communist and have lots of money.
Do they claim to support "Free as in Freedom"? They're definitely communist. Seek out your nearest local authority and report it at once. The dirty communist "Richard Stallman" A.K.A Joseph Smirnova! He is a communist and should you see him you should immediately call 999 or 911 depending on your free country of choice.

Don't believe the lies of Linux and Open Source Software!! Death to GNU! Death to communism!!!! Buy Windows software and support our planet and freedoms!

3. Has your child asked for new hardware?
Computer hackers are often limited by conventional computer hardware. They may request "faster" video cards (http://www.matrox.com/), and larger hard drives, or even more memory (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0960170618/adequacy-20). If your son starts requesting these devices, it is possible that he has a legitimate need. You can best ensure that you are buying legal, trustworthy hardware by only buying replacement parts from your computer's manufacturer.
If your son has requested a new "processor" from a company called "AMD" (http://www.amd.com/), this is genuine cause for alarm. AMD (http://www.amd.com/) is a third-world based company who make inferior, "knock-off" copies of American processor chips (http://www.intel.com/). They use child labor extensively in their third world sweatshops, and they deliberately disable the security features that American processor (http://s1.amazon.com/exec/varzea/ts/exchange-glance/Y01Y3117867Y3420222/adequacy-20) makers, such as Intel (http://www.intel.com/), use to prevent hacking. AMD (http://www.amd.com/) chips are never sold in stores, and you will most likely be told that you have to order them from internet sites. Do not buy this chip! This is one request that you must refuse your son, if you are to have any hope of raising him well (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0415900042/adequacy-20).

Haha, I remember reading this before. I laughed at:

9. Has your son radically changed his appearance?
If your son has undergone a sudden change in his style of dress, you may have a hacker on your hands. Hackers (http://www.geocities.com/syme1984/hackers_graphics/hackg02.gif) tend to dress in bright, day-glo colors. They may wear baggy pants, bright colored shirts and spiky hair dyed in bright colors to match their clothes. They may take to carrying "glow-sticks (http://glowproducts.com/quinten.jpg)" and some wear pacifiers (http://media.chickclick.com/chickclick/image/culfea_rave_165.jpg) around their necks. (I have no idea why they do this) There are many such hackers in schools today, and your son may have started to associate with them. If you notice that your son's group of friends includes people dressed like this, it is time to think about a severe curfew, to protect him from dangerous influences.
