What are you talking about, that’s mine scumbag!

Reminds me of the bash.org Napster entry. For posterity:

#104052 + (14264) - [X]
<NES> lol
<NES> I download something from Napster
<NES> And the same guy I downloaded it from starts downloading it from me when I'm done
<NES> I message him and say "What are you doing? I just got that from you"
<NES> "getting my song back fucker"
