[sudo-discuss] just got mugged and maced near sudo room

[Naomi Most]

I want to thank all sudoers for not responding to my email with, "FYI that
was pepper spray not mace," which is what some random douches on Twitter
thought it was pertinent to tell me due my using those words
interchangeably, due to having just been pepper sprayed in the face.

Pedants: technically correct.  The Best Kind of Correct.  *eyeroll*
