Since we're talking about my email signature here, this characterisation you've described is meant to be me. I don't know what *I've* done for you to describe me that way, but at best it's irrelevant to debian-user. It's perjorative, and I would ask that you stop writing perjoratively about me on this mailing list, and go and re-read the Code of Conduct for participating in Debian.

in favour of graphics that are gleefully being used to highlight them.
My signature includes an emoji which is configured to be a reasonable approximation of my appearance. -- Please do not CC me for listmail. 👱🏻 Jonathan Dowland ✎ j...@debian.org 🔗 https://jmtd.net
