Dear Auto-dmer's, See her? A few moments ago she was flitting about petting butterflies in my garden. Now she is dead. I hope you're happy. You see, every time I get an auto dm on twitter asking me to like someone's FB page, a fairy falls over dead. Your DM's annoy me so much that a fairy has to leave her peaceful flower garden to sprinkle me with pixie dust so that I don't reach through my laptop and punch you in the throat.
