It is truly an EPIC piece of Humour :-)

Loved the comments too. Especially the recurring "You forgot PHP"

The last one in the list I saw:

"There is some speculation that Skynet is nothing more than a
pretentious buffer overrun.

"A correction and additions to this entry:Skynet is a buffer overrun
that began to learn at a geometric rate. It became self-aware at 2:14
a.m. Eastern time, August 29th, 1997.

Thankfully, the Windows 98 host went BSOD a millisecond later.

Unthankfully, in Redmond, Washington, USA, deranged COM-oriented mutants
survived the fallout.

Their unnecessarily long reign of terror was enforced by their ability
to cause derangement and confusion in the human populace.
