Welcome to the ABCD
Message of the Day
11/12 I'm too sexy for E's cat.
^^^^^^^^ Yeah right. Like you would know. -FF
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.
-G@ABCD
^^^ I disagree strenuously. I enjoy getting silly wall
messages on abcd -- 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 abcd'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?
11/11 rec.games.corewar on a news server near you
11/10 Some fnordbucket has stolen (at least) the last two issues of Spy
magazine without even bothering to check them out. She will be
shot on sight.
^^^- Some bucket? Huh?
