Wasn't there a webcomic that really had a bug up its rear end about Jack Thompson?

I mean he was a pretty hated figure among people who play video games, so I'm sure there would of be plenty of early webcomics where he turned up as someone to hate on.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?
Actually I think the whole "don't gently caress with us" was from the miscarriage comic

among people who aren't extremely weird about video games he was mainly remembered for his intense homophobia and his 15-year-long crusade against the Florida state bar for being too pro-gay, which makes 'getting disbarred because he flooded the office with gay pornography' especially bizarre

he had previously attempted to smear various rival attorneys by claiming that they were illegally distributing pornography to minors, so it's possible his plan was to enter a bunch of porn into the public record where anyone could see it, and then argue that because of that the court was illegally distributing gay porn and was thus clearly being influenced by the gay agenda

If only playing all those video games hadn't made him so incredibly homophobic and crazy.

it was not at all abnormal for random Soviet citizens to personally write Stalin asking him to do things, and while most of them would get filtered out by layers of staff long before actually reaching the big man himself, he did read at least some of them and actually would personally respond to them occasionally, ranging from things as high-level as major economic planning decisions to things as minor as somebody complaining that the pipes in their apartment were leaky

the guy who started the Soviet nuclear weapons program was, at the time, a lowly lieutenant in the Air Force, and kicked it off by doing exactly that, personally writing Stalin and telling him that the Americans were probably developing a nuclear weapon and that they should do the same
