Fine...since you rule the world, it should be no problem to prevent war, pestilence, and hunger. Come back and let us know about your progress solving these issues.

Why don't you tell me where I can meet you face to face and I'll show you how I can stop you. And I'll show you what you can rule little boy.

Hackers are gods - yeah, right.

Remember the Star Trek thing about gods who die if no one is around to praise them? I think that's what this kid has in mind. Way to hungry for recognition, likely short on social skills, looking for an outlet. That's standard behavior for young primate males, and hacking for them is roughly like playing a boom box loudly.

"Hacker" once meant an "ad-hoc programmer", who could code from scratch, no notes, no flowcharts, just the concept, and end up with a working program. Now it means "script kiddies" who download a hack script and run it, and think they're gods.

A person who actually feels good about themselves doesn't spend time hollering about it.

Hmm - that should have been "too hungry" and "about himself". Get in a hurry and get sloppy.

Do I need to stock up on canned goods for this?
