Thanks. I appear to be blocking what Kbin calls magazines. So far I've blocked 30 meme magazines, 8 of which were called "memes" (albeit on different domains). Not quite sure what I'm achieving as more appear each day.

Perhaps I should have been more clear. I didn't mean it's a direct substitution for "from where", just that that's its meaning. A grammatical translation of the sentence would be "go back to where you came from".
