admin abuse

A phenomenon that occurs on internet message boards where administrators and/or moderators abuse their power to consistently edit annoying, lame or problematic users' posts or profiles to change the context and make the user look like a fool.
Before AA:

Upstanding User A: "How's the new GTA?"
Annoying User B: "God it sucks, it's so lame; if you buy it you're gay."
Upstanding User C: "Don't listen to the above guy, it's great."

After AA:

Upstanding User A: "How's the new GTA?"
Annoying User B: "I hear its amazing when the famous purple stuffed worm in flap-jaw space with the tuning fork does a raw blink on Hari Kiri Rock. I need scissors! 61!"
Upstanding User C: "Don't listen to the above guy, it's great."

(US GOVERNMENT) Agency in the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Mostly a new entity, which is perhaps the single most conspicuous domestic policy failure of the US government since 2000.

The TSA's job is to inspect baggage carried on flights at 450 international airports in the USA. Implementing this mandate simply consisted of "federalizing" thousands of private-sector employees who had been woefully under-qualified. Initially, the DHS had been formed explicitly to break law enforcement unions (which contribute to fighting corruption in law enforcement, as well as protecting law enforcement officers' rights as employees). In the case of the TSA, this had disastrous consequences for the quality of air travel.
The Transportation Security Administration has one mission, namely, to check passengers and luggage at 450 international airports across the USA. It does not inspect freight or border entries; that is done by Customs and Border Protection. For this function, it employs 45,000 screeners under lousy conditions with awful pay. And it spends more doing this one thing than Sweden spends on its entire military.

wikipedia administrators

Control freaks, retarded people who stay at home with the curtains closed with those rounded glasses and freckles analyzing every single page and every single spelling mistake on Wikipedia, editing it to get a PNG image of a star and creating a user profile page for no reason. They are nasty asses who nobody likes and everyone should rebel against them and boycott Wikipedia!
