From the Twisted-Python ML:

In this e-mail thread, someone wrote that people who say Twisted has no docs ought to be stabbed in the face. Obviously, this was intended as humor, but I believe that this social custom, as with other related social customs in Twistedland, deter people from some other cultures from participating.

I hate RTFM. I hate it. It reeks of superiority. I don’t find violent comments offensive really (it’s just another employment of hyperbole), but I beg of you—please don’t lord your Rubyness over others. (Seen on effbot.)
