jQuery("span.description"). // selects all spanners
    filter(":contains('140byt.es -- Click')"). // clicks them if they filter their contents for 140bytes.
    closest("li").hide() // Hides Li in the closet.

index.js

jQuery("span.description").filter(":contains('140byt.es -- Click')").closest("li").hide()

GitHub uses jQuery, so I get it for free.

If this is limited to github using jQuery, you could use "$" instead of jQuery, too.

As long as it is below 140bytes I should be ok. If this was a valid entry anyways.

Golfing down @atk’s suggestion for the lulz:

(function(i,l){l=i.length;while(l--){i[l].style.display=/140byt\.es -- Click/.test(i[l].innerHTML)?'none':''}})(document.getElementsByTagName('li'))

You could even shorten the regex a little bit (although that would make it slightly less “robust”).
