I have found in Hatrack an indispensible friendship that I have never truly found. By this I mean that I stupidly thought that here I could find no harm - but I have found that, as in real-life, not all life can intertwine. I will forever feel a rush of happiness that overcomes me as I come home to Hatrack, but it can never be the same. I thank you all.

My thread was not intended to hurt you. If you feel it's an important part of your identity, then please feel free to tell me to go to hell.

I've been particularly insouciant lately, and apparently I was very cavalier with your feelings. I'm sorry, wieczorek. [Frown]

If you want to get back at Ralphie, I reccomend repeated posting in the Ender Burning thread. She would enjoy that kind of payback.

Sounds amusing Chade.
Ralphie, I recommend not pleading for the ousting of a quote that resides in a book you've never read. Unless ofcourse you meant to be funny (something I suppose I need lessons in) by asking if my sig. was from a book.

Saxon, if you think my posts (after the thread based on my sig) are immature, you should be glad that I gave myself a half hour before writing my own thread - it could've been embarrassing...

wieczorek,

How old are you?

Of course Ralphie has read the book. You'd be hard pressed to find a poster who had been here for over a couple of years who hadn't. Of course she was teasing you.

Weezy, she's read it. It was a joke. Perhaps you need to spend a little more time around Ralphie to understand what she finds funny. It won't always overlap with what you find funny, but that doesn't mean it isn't empirically funny (nor that it is -- sorry, Ralphie, my honesty filter has kicked in).

She waited much longer than I did to comment on it, if you recall (and I guess I've made a liar of myself, as I'm now commenting on it again -- there goes the honesty filter). Quotations used as signatures seem to work best when funny, or thought-provoking, or sometimes both. Your quotation isn't funny, and while it can be thought-provoking, it most likely won't be so here, because everyone already knows it and where it's from. It's like those topics that have been discussed ad nauseum, yet still crop up now and then.

Most boards that have signatures have a feature that allows them to be turned off by the choice of the viewer. When you type it in every time, we don't have that option.

I'm not gonna tell you to stop posting with the signature. But by itself it doesn't add anything, and leaves me unwittingly with the (incorrect) impression that you have nothing of your own to add. I just think you're better than that.

Old enough to realize that I'm supposed to be doing my homework, Kayla. [Big Grin] But I suppose I'll pay for that in the wee hours of the morning - hmmm...exaggeration... And you're going to keep waiting for it, Ralphie. I enjoy watching (metaphorical expression) you squirm.

Whoa. I suddenly, truly, like you.

And I'm going to assume everything is right between us, since you're not using your sig AND teasing me.

It feels like I just won the lotto, only without the cash and hotties that come with big money.

Well Ralphie - I suppose this is how friends are made? (That's supposed to be funny...) But don't think that you're going to get so lucky with the sig omission each and every time... [Wink]

<sighs dramatically>

I have been replaced as Ralphie's newest hizzo...

[Frown]

Was bound to happen, I suppose, but I had hoped, at least, to get smacked around some before she moved on...

If there's anything worse than feeling used, it's feeling unused...

You can resume your position, Analog Kid (or TAK, I suppose) as Ralphie's hizzo. It sounds too much like "sizzling" which reminds me of bacon, and that's what's cooking up in the frying pan besides Ralphie's brain, so it doesn't sound too appetizing...
