There sure are a lot of sock puppets that voted yes in that #1 poll.

Voter fraud!

It was actually totally genuine. Okay, maybe I don't "love" you in the way that you see it, but I massively appreciate your work. I only closed my thread due to snyde comments, the sentiment remains. Hope the sock puppets didn't annoy or worry you... I thought I may as well have a laugh whilst I was about it :lol:

Bless you Ripster.

Dude, you do not need to bolster your ego in this way. You work hard, and we appreciate it man. If more people spent less time thinking up clever replies to offend and belittle others, and more time explaining how things worked in the way you do, this community would be better off for it.

I think you probably say these things, tongue-in-cheek, so it's all good :)

Why so bitter?

PS: Jokes aside, I actually like your coloured KB. Are those caps dyed or moulded that way?

Repeat of the joke in the other thread. Then Reaper said "plague".

Then he said lol.

He always says lol.  Another datapoint in my KeyAboo Theorem.

So true. LOL is an action, not something to fill awkward silence.

You think I don't see the correlation between Asperger's Syndrome and ass + burgers?

I may be new, I am no fool, however, and I'm pretty certain you didn't conceive this joke... it's quite old (and tired). You're great at seeing how things work... so see how this joke isn't really funny, eh?

:lol:




Q: How do you confuse a fool?

No, I'm saying you must either:

1.  Only post at heavily moderated forums.
2.  Are in a monastery and finally got an Internet connection.
3.  Are a BYU student.

Must?

How about this... none of the above, and also, I don't want you to think I am offended, and that I do not "get" any of your jokes. I get them, I just have a different sense of humour... perhaps?

Thanks for categorising me. However, on each count, you are in wrong, which is unusual for you mate.

you don't know if you deleted it?

strange.

either way, if you thought your lovefest didn't go as you wanted it here, i guess they did you the favor of saving you from heart break over there by deleting it.

It got DELETED?

First my posts then my appreciation threads?????????????????

Bet the first thing Webwit did was check for IP proxy servers in the UK.

Every single thing webtwit has ever said to me has caused offence, likely with his intention to do so. It's kinda good, because you get an early warning as to who to not bother reacting to. Most folk on these forums are nice people, they just pretend not to be, which is puzzling.

BTW: Is it true that Deskthority is based upon the knowledge base and idea of GeekHack?

Webwit was my favorite.  He's just not the same on DT.  Then again, DT doesn't have the noobage GH does.
