Shouldn't this thread be describing a way to kill Bowmann? The whole notion of Achilles' heel has been sadly watered down over the centuries.
EDIT: well, automatically assuming they have multiple personalities...obviously.

Failing a Greek mythological reference, we could always go for Marvin, the robot from Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. I seem to remember he managed to persuade at least one suicide.

I have this feeling that there is a good reason that I paid for my star. So I threw out the idea that maybe a non-sub can only play so many games before they have to subscribe or no longer use the site. I have seen this on a few chess sites, you get like a 20 game trial, then if you try to play a 21st it goes right to the subscribe page. So if you subscribe then you can play and be a member, if you don't want to subscribe then, goodbye.
Want to really piss him off ?
Let's all chip in and pay for his star .
Everyone already thinks he's a "member" , let's prove it by making him one .

Actually, since "typo" is an abbreviation of "typographical error", the apostrophe becomes acceptable.
So there.
