This is a simple little crawler I'm putting together to troll my brother, whom I unwittingly introduced to the dark and unsavory world of Reddit. As we all know, negative reinforcement is the most effective means of rapidly inducing a desired change in an uncooperative human subject.
I have aspirations to make this into a simple API / web service so that you, too, can troll my brother. We'll see.
It also happens to be a handy way to pick up a bit of Node.js. It's all the rage these days, or so I'm told.
