I came across Brad Hill’s post on codes of conduct (and why the Blogger Code is a bad idea.) Although I agree, that’s not why I’m writing. This post is about the following question Brad asked:
Society writes laws that most people already agree about and follow. Burglery is against the law because most people aren’t burglars. Those who are burglars toss aside the law to burgle. (Is there a more amusing verb than “to burgle”?)
The response in the post’s comments:
(yes, to hamburgle)
I was laughing out loud. Awesome.
