  • When you're so upset by the misspelling in your SN that you PM Matthew to change it

  • When you're angry enough that you have to come here through a proxy that you PM Matthew to change it (and he never does... ::))

  • When you save the rolly and poppy eye expressions to use in your own direct connect AIM conversations

  • You try to trick other Allegro.cc members into putting dumb stuff in their signatures.

  • You click on the little yellow lightbulbs and just scroll to the end of the post, reading nothing, just so that the damn lightbulb will turn off!

  • When Civil War to the American viewer means "C++ vs. C"

      I do that, and the other way around.

      Even when I type allegro.cc when I didn't want to, and I was just there... I still check the forums.. ::)

      • You're ranking top ten.(serious warning!)

      • You have made more than 1000 posts(which still leaves me out)

      • You don't care that the poll has been the same for months.

      Aren't those inclusive? Anyone in the top 10 has over 1000 posts (I guess, since I'm not in the top 10).

      Matthew doesn't allow religious threads. They tend to degenerate into flamewars, unfortunately.

      EDIT.

      • ... you've made more than three posts in this thread

      hahah.. yeah, definitely if you know what "The milk thread" is, you're a regular ;)

      Yeah, I was an ass in the first few religion threads ;)

      ..now I just don't participate too much in the discussions... unless maybe they're intelligent. Of course, religion and intelligence don't mix, so that never happens.. har har har har har.. ;)

      Ahh.. just read through half that thread again. ;D

      ..we really go all over the place... and I don't make any sense at all half the time. ::)
      Since then I've heard the song "Flat Earth Society" too.. thought that was funny. :P
