A Cypherpunk To Be Named Later purchases a new hunting rifle and moves to Alaska to try it out bear hunting. After a few days of hunting, he sees a moderately decent-sized black bear, and with one perfectly placed shot, kills it. Unfortunately, while watching the black bear collapse, he feels a tap on his shoulder; turning around, he sees a large brown bear. "I saw what you just did," says the bear. "You have two choices. Either I maul you to death, or you and I can step behind that rock over there and engage in the sort of activity Vulis usually attributes to Timmy Mayonnaise." Reluctantly, the Cypherpunk accepts the second alternative. Several days later, when the Cypherpunk is sufficiently recovered to sit comfortably, he decides to avenge his honor. After several hours of stalking, he centers the cross hairs of his riflescope on the brown bear's [deleted] and fires. While watching the brown bear die a slow and agonizing death, he feels a tap on the shoulder. Turning around, the Cypherpunk sees an enormous grizzly bear. "I saw what you just did," says the grizzly. "You have two choices. Either I eat you alive, or you and I can step behind that tree over there and I will show you what New York City Police officers really carry batons for." Reluctantly, the Cypherpunk accepts the second alternative. Several weeks later, after the bleeding stops and his toilet schedule returns to normal, the Cypherpunk once again enters the woods, this time seeking the grizzly bear. After searching for several days he finds the grizzly bear and shoots him. While he is cutting off the grizzly's [deleted], he once again feels a tap on the shoulder. Turning around, he sees a gigantic polar bear. The polar bear looks at him and says, "You don't come out here for the hunting, do you?"
