The best post I've seen on GH so far
« on: Mon, 23 March 2015, 21:37:52 »
I just had to share this for those who may have missed it in the classifieds.

So this guy WTS a rebranded Cherry 1800 some items and someone offers to trade for some Bro Caps. Then, right on cue, comes the best counter offer I've ever seen: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=67907.msg1643830#msg1643830

Hwood and Bro were looking at NIB ANSI dyesubs.
There were also NIB French dye subs there at the time.

Oops, did not catch that. I edited my OP accordingly.

Honestly, that is one of the most irritating things about the way we do classifieds around here. You never know what item a particular reply is referring to.

I dunno if you're being serious or not.

But much of what you read here day to day is meant as humor. It's inside humor, so many people don't get it. I guess it's amusing to those who are in on the joke.

No, sorry, I definitely understood it as it was intended. I probably could have used a winky face or something to make that clear in my above reply. But I've got this anti-emoticon thing. I haven't used an emoticon since 2005. Every once in a while it comes back to bite me, but I'm really just trying to preserve the art of tone in writing. But, I digress. FWIW, I'm pretty much always kidding around.

(...)Whereas back then I wrote about the tyranny of the majority, today I'd combine that with the tyranny of the minorities. These days, you have to be careful of both. They both want to control you. The first group, by making you do the same thing over and over again. The second group is indicated by the letters I get from the Vassar girls who want me to put more women's lib in The Martian Chronicles, or from blacks who want more black people in Dandelion Wine.
I say to both bunches, Whether you're a majority or minority, bug off! To hell with anybody who wants to tell me what to write. Their society breaks down into subsections of minorities who then, in effect, burn books by banning them. All this political correctness that's rampant on campuses is b.s.
