eat flaming death: imp. A construction popularized among
hackers by the infamous CPU Wars comic; supposedly derive from a
famously turgid line in a WWII-era anti-Nazi propaganda comic that
ran "Eat flaming death, non-Aryan mongrels!" or something of the
sort (however, it is also reported that the Firesign Theatre's 1975
album "In The Next World, You're On Your Own" a character won the
right to scream "Eat flaming death, fascist media pigs" in the
middle of Oscar night on a game show; this may have been an
influence). Used in humorously overblown expressions of hostility.
"Eat flaming death, EBCDIC users!"
