Shut up! Sometimes it is better to counter counter-revolutionary 
thoughts by obfuscation rather than downright punishment of the 
perpetrators though. The same goes for the information flow. There is 
a lot of material that can be found, even by ordinary Chinese, that 
can be labelled as counter-revolutionary, but there is at least 100 
times as much information in favor of the government. So now all I 
need to do is find somebody who is going to write a hundred-page essay 
and post it here on Aglami.

That's not corruption, that's just either smart or stupid, depending 
on the outcome of the attempt at bribery.

The picture I made of my toilet always makes me think of sandy 
beaches.

But it is what many original JISBU's were like. From the AGC FAQ:

JISBU: John Ievins Style Bugger Up. Luke writes:
  "These occur when you are replying to a post with multiple
  discussions contained therein. A JISBU is either when you
  leave a space blank intending to write a reply to that segment
  later or begin writing a reply and then decide to finish it off 
  after the rest of the post is written, but then forget about the spaces
  and send it, unfinished, leaving unsightly gaps."
