Yup.

Typically, an 'invalid' bug is one that is so bogus that it's obviously
not worth anyone's time to pursue.

For anyone easily amused, here are a few extreme examples from the last project
I worked on:

- http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22790
"fun with bisexual males in central california" (Bugzilla != dating service)

- http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13754
"Need Lead Browser Engineer for Start-UP" (Bugzilla != job recruiting service)

- http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16702
"Netscape = worst crap?" (Mozilla != Netscape)

- http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=48330
"Mozilla tester burned out, needs to be swapped out for replacement"  (okay, so
I resolved my resignation-bug as 'Resolved' rather than  'Invalid'...what would
they do, fire me? ;)

Best,
