Aren't you supposed to say, "Testing 1, 2, 3, testing . . ."?

"script kiddies" are the misbegotten offspring of leftist biological parents who, as a result of their lack of training in basic moral values, seek only to disrupt and destroy the property of others in a plaintive attempt to gain the attention and love they cannot get at home, lashing out pathetically in defiance of all authority, like the disturbed creatures they are.
In the hustle and bustle of day-to-day online life, we sometimes forget the silent victims of liberal folly are those the liberals are supposed to care most about.

Script kiddies are people who write malicious software script designed to make a DDoS on a website or chat room. For the people in Rio Linda, small time hackers.

The defining characteristic of a "script kiddie" is they are unable to actually write the malicious code themselves, so they find someone else's malicious script (or code), modify it slightly, and release it as their own.
