I hope that helps.
Exactly.
A perfectly framed post which conveys exactly its intended meaning doesn't detract one iota from the content - and that is precisely the reason I aim to present such posts to my readers.
Ironic that you should be the one to point this out, Dave, since you seem to have no truck with the concept.
Although I'm sure dave's post is a really cutting retort in whatever bizarro-verse it is where everyone else is wrong and dave is right, chalice's post are flid outs and following someone around equals being stalked, this is still qft

I was fairly sure at the time it was a mistake rather than a pseudo-error.
Also, I think you have to be pretty skilful about it, at least initially. You couldn't just do it to a new audience.
They have to be pre-aware of your non-idiot status - alternatively you could just not care about what people think and do it anyhow.
But we all care, really.
If it wasn't you, then Idol? Sometimes I'll forget to etymologize my errs. Some of them are not my own creation, but from some of Ivana's students.

This moderation thing is pretty cool, I get to have first refusal at making Dave look (even more) like a gibbering chimp.
I guess it's a bit like beating a quadriplegic to death with his own prosthetic, but w.e.

Have you ever heard of the infinite monkey theorem?
I have this theory that while you might need an infinity for a monkey to do Shakespeare, it would take a crack team of bonobos considerably less to do dave.
Perhaps as little as five minutes.
Re: Getting in contact with other members
I just want to say that I very much dislike 'qft'. Posterity/posteriority
I like posteriority and I can not lie
You other brothers can't deny
That when a post comes in with a zany bit of waste
And throws crazy in your face
You quote for fun, wanna play it rough
'Cause you notice that post was fucked
Deep in his thoughts you're glaring
You're hooked and you keep comparing
Oh baby, I wanna play with you
And snap this picture
Then homeboy tries to warn me
That he has content even though he's corny
Ooh, Dave's a cruisin'
You say he's following my Benz?
Well, abuse me, abuse me
'Cause you can't even harsh me smoothly
I've seen him prancin'
To hell with prose stancin'
He's weak, upset,
Spew the bile like he's got tourette'
I'm tired of Dave's routine
Sayin' the opposite of what he means
Take his average lie and throw it back
He gets a panic attack
So, fellas! (Yeah!) Fellas! (Yeah!)
Does Dave show his paranoia (Hell yeah!)
So just quote it! (Quote it!) Quote it! (Quote it!)
Quote that ragin' nut!
Posterity got yo' back!

fucking fuck I didn't even foresee that
Re: Getting in contact with other members
It's taken me until now to realise that you wrote it because it looks like rap lyrics - and you're asian :crazy:
I'm sure it's excellent but I've got this irrational hatred thing going on regarding poetry.
