Why...?

Why is it that most of the mailing lists that I am subscribed to at the moment are full of f***wits? One of the lists I'm on (topic = Electronic Music) has a guy who seems to be posting details of his entire collection - one track at a time, using the format:

=================================================
~~~~~~~~~~Artist~Essential Release~~~~~~~~~
=================================================
=================================================
~~~~~~~~~~~Artist~Album Title~~~~~~~~~~~~
=================================================

Now I appreciate that he is not english so his understanding may be a little lacking, but when one list member asked what was his point, our little fuckwit has a rant trying to take the moral high ground. I annotated his reply saying that we like witty, intelligent and informative posts, which his clearly wasn't. I actually likened his posts to spam.

So what has he done now? Firstly, despite my saying publicly I didn't want private mail from him, he has privately mailed a message, asking me to tell him about the music I am listening to at the moment. Secondly, he has posted another message to the list AND cc'd it to me and the other guy who commented about the posts.

If someone has such a clear lack of brain power then they should be shot. It would be a mercy killing. Honest.....
