I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

It irritates me how TU was actually doing them a favor, but they just had to be assholes about it.  Excuse the language.

He did a lot more than just report a vulnerability.  What he did was totally wrong.  But that's another story. 

Reporting vulnerabilities is absolutely worth the "risk".

Because he doesn't want anybody to, and it's polite to respect his wishes.
