A new version of the TrollFilter is now available. Those of you who have been
around for a while can probably figure out why.

IMPORTANT: The method of retrieving the TrollFilter has changed. I've taken
down the email autoresponder, and replaced it with a (hopefully) much more
convenient method of obtaining the file. Simply visit this URL

http://www.milmac.com/trollfilter.php

to download the filter file directly through your browser.

It might be easier to just find your own private, moderated forum.

Then you won't EVER be ASKED to refrain from racist jokes, sexist
jokes, dead baby jokes, Holocaust jokes, ethnic jokes, religious
jokes, etc.

Why not go the extra mile. Everybody wins! This forum becomes a more
inclusive, less Xenophobic place. You guys have your clubhouse.

What say ye??

I say Ruth and Golda were walking along Hendon High Street.
Ruth says, "My son Irving is getting married. He tells me he is engaged
to a wonderful girl, but... he thinks she may have a disease called herpes.
Golda says, "Do you have any idea what this herpes is, and can he catch it?"
Ruth replies, "No, but I am just so thrilled to hear about Irving's
engagement - it's time he settled down. As far as the herpes goes...who
knows?"
"Well," says Golda, "I have a very good medical dictionary at home. I'll
look it up and call you."
So Golda goes home, looks it up, and calls Ruth. "Ruth, I found it. Not
to worry. It says herpes is a disease of the gentiles."

I thought you might like this one because it had Jews, Gentiles, and
sexually transmitted disease in it. There are about 3000 more similar
Jewish jokes he http://www.awordinyoureye.com/jokes1stset.html

I picked the first site with a Jewish Joke Google. I got 1 MILLION 50
THOUSAND hits on that search.... you might have a long, long battle on
your hands...

rec.woodworking.inappropriate.jokes.

Isn't that "family-friendly" moderated woodworking group that the twit
in the wheelchair started still out there?

(Don't recall his name... Just as well)


It was Frodo or Ferdie or Whacko or something like that. Somebody (Joat?) pinned the nickname Frito
on him and it stuck. At the beginning of the rants I suspected the current character was indeed
Frito trying again to take over the newsgroup. I looked him up on Google and he just appeared out
of thin air last fall. All the chest beating, teenage angst and wasted bandwidth convinced me my
suspicion was correct. I immediately activated my anti-troll protocol..

A quick twitting and a couple of topic filterings fixed this foolishness. The Wrec was back to
interesting woodworking topics and discussions. I apparently missed some good jokes, but did get a
chance to catch up on unread messages. Life is good. DNFTMFT.
