Bad press In general should just about do it. If in doubt, /. it first. 
If it's been /.'d, dig, if you can dig it. Something is afoot, and we 
all need to be paying attention :D

Gentoo is like a cult ... it can't easily be killed.

"Every generation has a mythology. Every millenium has a doomsday cult. 
Every legend gets the distortion knob wound up until the speaker melts. 
Archeologists at the University of Helsinki today uncovered what could 
be the earliest known writings from the Cult of Tux, a fanatical 
religious sect that flourished during the early Silicon Age, around the 
dawn of the third millenium AD..." Gospel of Tux, Verse I
