Loose Change: I'm Sick About This

There has been some concern that Rule 0 may have been classified in violation of Board policy.

This is just not true. Rule 0 is clearly on display in a locked filing cabinet in a disused basement lavatory with a sign on the door saying "Beware of the Leopard".

I always though that rule 0 was that "no post may bring harm humanity, or through lack of information, allow humanity to come to harm".
 
I'd like to sing a little song for you now....

"Day-zee... Day-zee...

Give me your an-ser, dooooooo...."
 
Actually just about the rules is this

The following are some of the behaviors that are not acceptable:
  • Advocacy of suicide or of violence to others: If you tell someone to kill themselves, or to harm someone else, you will be suspended without prior warning. Example: "Go kill yourself."
  • Sexual harassment: Defined as unwelcome sexual advances, sexual suggestions, or sexual content directed at another user, when reported. Generalized misogyny or misanthropy not directed at a specific user will not be considered "sexual harassment".
  • Extremely cruel or hateful content directed toward another user: This includes content in private messages.

Their is nothing in the rules to say these things are banned. So I call them rule 0. That is what I was refering to above.

You'd like to think that, wouldn't you? All is going according to plan...

That was rule -1, which, of course, means you have to invert it to get the real meaning of the rule.

Back when I was still using Windows, whenever I shut down, my computer would say "What do you think you're doing, Dave?"

LOL! My machine would say, "I know that you and Frank were planning to disconnect me, and I'm afraid that's something I cannot allow to happen." :D

MINE would say "I'm gonna go home and sleep with my wife!"

But that's a different movie ending.
 
For a while, I had:
"So what're you gonna do, Molari, huh? Blow up the island?"
"Actually, now that you mention it..."
"Nooooo!"

Heh,

I used a HAL theme for my computer sounds when I forst got one. Had to turn it off, though. For some reason, it started playing sounds at random times, like in the middle of the night while I was sleeping. Started getting a bit too creepy.

Nothing like waking up to "I'm sorry, Dave, I can't do that"

I used the "Dr. Chndra(sp?), will I dream?" bit for my shutdown, though. I saved the "planning to disconnect me" for fatal errors :)
 
When I can afford it, (and if there are still nutters hanging around ground zero), I'll fly over to New York, wearing one of these: http://www.cyberdog.net/cybershop/p...art=0&cat=mens&subcat=17_light tees&item=9485

With a rather offensive comment about their movement on it. First they'll notice it flashing, and want to talk (everyone wants to talk to a guy who's wearing a flashing top, I know from experience :) ) then they'll read the message :D.
