Ahoy! Ahoy! Check!

Actually, it's more that even those of us who will put him down
verbally don't actually want to see him tortured to death. I've
strongly recommended that he either shape up or ship out (learn to
code or get out of programming as a business), but that doesn't in any
way mean I would rejoice at his death.

But he is annoying. Very annoying. And I completely understand the
frustration that leads people to want him to suffer great pain.
