      I want to reply “What a dumb comment” to you, but maybe I’m the one who’s missing something. Explain to me what you were trying to say in your comment

        Oh shit, it was deleted by a moderator! “Mess with the best, die like the rest” is a quote from the movie “Hackers”, and ZeroCool was the hackers name in the movie. It also is OPs username. I thought the quote was relevant to the post as well

            The idea that after 30 years that movie is still awesome

            Also that the killer messed with the best (those 8 people killed) so he died like the rest (of other mass killers)

            It’s a double entendres

          edit2: fixed wording a bit, added Texas

          Not sure, but I tried to point out, with the quote, that he was not unalived by someone else; suspect was unalived by themself.

          Texas pride? Is a guess.
