Sorry, that should be :WWGD said:Enunciate the caret of the bivalvic disjunction in its full ellipsis.
I'm having a really hard time looking at the dictionary every time you write something.WWGD said:Enunciate the caret of the bivalvic disjunction in its full ellipsis.
Sorry, this comment needed to use bizarre words. Will try to keep it simpler otherwise, or link to an explanation.Psinter said:I'm having a really hard time looking at the dictionary every time you write something.
You have two flavors for ice cream to choose: vanilla or chocolate. Which one do you choose? No need to answer. Obviously the chocolate one with chocolate toppings in a chocolate cone waffle and chocolate fudge. That's not even a question.
Thanks.WWGD said:Sorry, this comment needed to use bizarre words. Will try to keep it simpler otherwise, or link to an explanation.
I don't understand what they are talking about, but they do seem like funny people.collinsmark said:On a more serious note, if I want a good chuckle about serious matters, I tend to catch some New Zealand Parliament.

Some of those house members have as good of sense of humor as they do dedication to serious issues. I think elected officials in other countries could find it useful to follow their lead in that respect.
(I think it was @StevieTNZ that got me hooked on that.)

collinsmark said:Here's one from MP Maurice Williamson back in 2013 that made lots of rounds on the Internet.
Most days are not nearly that funny and eloquent. But still, most times I watch I'll catch a good zinger or two within ten to twenty minutes or so. It might be about something as mundane as a project delay due to substandard concrete formula that might have otherwise potentially, maybe, caused a risk of a minor landslide, and hearing, "Well I'll tell you about a landslide last September 20th!" (referring to the then most recent elections, September 20th, 2014). Every once in awhile there's a zinger or two like that.

please add sounds to it.WWGD said:Thanks, unfortunately there is no sound in my computer, hasn't been in a long time. I just remembered the link I posted.
It's windows system, just no way of making sound come out, after checking all possibilities.Silicon Waffle said:please add sounds to it.
Oh no...WWGD said:It's windows system, just no way of making sound come out, after checking all possibilities.
If you're really interested in watching a video (not that you would be really interested in watching the one I posted, but some hypothetical one) can't you watch it on your phone?WWGD said:Thanks, unfortunately there is no sound in my computer, hasn't been in a long time.

I have a $10 dumb phone, unfortunately; will have to wait for a bonus at work to scale up.zoobyshoe said:If you're really interested in watching a video (not that you would be really interested in watching the one I posted, but some hypothetical one) can't you watch it on your phone?
Hehe. I beat you: I got my phone on sale for $5. Normally they're $15.99, but I guess they weren't moving even at that price.WWGD said:I have a $10 dumb phone, unfortunately; will have to wait for a bonus at work to scale up.

It's more of a matter of being able to pay for it. It is a useful tool in many respects; e.g., if you end up lost in the middle of nowhere.fresh_42 said:Halleluja! I'm not the only person on the planet who thinks a phone has to receive and make phone-calls - fullstop.
My point was that the company was announcing its pride next to a statement attesting to an error it just made.rootone said:Yes the server was down for a while, there's another thread about it somewhere, and some mention of hackers was made.
Afaik everything is sorted out now, but strange that PF might be targeted by hackers, I mean why would anyone want to?
Yes, that was a good one. I laughed, too. The more because the server as a machine was up!WWGD said:My point was that the company was announcing its pride next to a statement attesting to an error it just made.
WWGD said:I got this message when trying to access PF in the morning:
500 server error...
Then a message stating the servers in the site are proudly run by company x...
I am very sorry guys, but I have to correct. I saw the error and the server is not run by company x. Just the software that generated the error. And there was no mention of hackers anywhere.

NYC is written on your missing avatar, middle of nowhere is where you feared to be without internet and cabs must not be around because they could help you to get away from nowhere. I'm just wondering where such a place could be.WWGD said:?
