11/11 I've received written and verbal complaints about the overuse of wall. Please be more considerate with its use: people shouldn't have to "mesg n" when they want to receieve talk and write messages just beacause you are obnoxious. -boyd@soda ^^^ I disagree strenuously. I enjoy getting silly wall messages on soda -- it's part of the charm. Anyone too stupid to do a "mesg n" is too stupid to pay attention to. ^^^ I agree with the disagreement, strenuously. If people can't deal with soda's silliness, they should go use a MORE SERIOUS MACHINE, to do the work they want. Party on dudes. (Thanks, Garth) ^^^ I disagree with the adjective "strenuously" (I would use "arduously") but other than that, I agree with the agreement with the disagreement. ^^^ Yeah, me too. ^^^ I wrote the first comment. I used the word "strenuously" because I formulated the idea during excremeditation. Hence, the disagreement was strenuous in every sense of the word. ^^^ I didn't say anything earlier because I disagreed with whomever's use of the word strenuously. However, because it has now been stipulated that we are actually disagreeing arduously, I agree with the disagreement. Wall Lives! ^^^ I think you really mean ardently. webster it, dude. ^^^ I vehemently agree with the strenuous disagreement, even if it was only ardent (it is ardent - arduous means difficult) ^^^ So, we're all agreed? ^^^ I fervently meant "arduous" as an alternative to "strenuous" because it captures the same idea more elegantly. I am vehemently contentuous with the use of the modifier "ardently." "arduous" means with great effort. "ardently" means passionately. ^^^ I most definitely agree with the first statement ... Are we all agreed? ^^^ Only if you really meant contentious, and not contentuous. Maybe I'm just a floccinauxinihilifilipicator. */ [dictionary deleted] |
