WOW Scam Scum

[micky0604]

During the Northern Song Dynasty,there was a skilled criminal. One day he tried to draw a big crowd by posting SPAM in a forum. He shot so poorly that the on-lookers turned away in disgust. He became very proud of his skill trying to use world of warcraft to scam people into buying bogus power leveling even though he was an incompetent loser. But among the crowd of fellow criminals, an old oil peddler only nodded his head indifferently.This hurt his Pride. "Can you do this?" he asked the old oil peddler. "No, I can't." "What do you think of my skill?" "Just OK, but nothing special. You've gained a total lack of accuracy from persistent lying and cheating. That's all." "What can you do, then?" The old man said nothing.He put a gourd bottle on the ground and covered its mouth with a copper coin. He then scooped out a ladle of oil from his big jar, held it high and began to fill the bottle. Now, a thread of oil came down from the ladle into the bottle just through the hole of the coin. Everybody looking on watched with amazement. But the old man said, "This is nothing special, I can do this because I have practiced it a lot." "But this story is only here to allow me to steal from you, so that is the real skill I possess and I don't even do that well." And with these words, he left. Later, people use this phrase to mean "Practice makes perfect little piles of wasted time and space, but will not bring profit to the criminals who are stupid enough to think we don't recognize scams when we see them".
