The Back Room

I'm thinking of doing a .NET version of that PHP page. Except all my stuff will just be in a class library. My only problem is that he relies on a lot of internal PHP functions. So I guess I'll have to delve into the PHP source.

How did you learn to be so creative in your choice of words? When you flame someone, you're not just torching the guy verbally, you incinerate every damn word he's ever uttered. I think it has a lot to do with the fact that I'm not interested in being brief, so I try to use complete and properly constructed sentences. Just because you stripping someone of every last particle of self-esteem does not preclude the use of proper english (and even more important - spelling). Are you spoken words just as good as your written? If so and if we ever meet, remind me not to start arguing with you. I couldn't stand the embarrassment. How many times have you been mad enough or annoyed enough to trip offline and launch into some of the stuff we see here? For me, almost never. Face-to-face insults are almost always limited to just a few expletives, sometimes followed by a flurry of punches (usually with a moderate amount of privacy). When you're online, you have an opportunity to fine-tune your message, and fine-tune you must if you want to trash someone and still A) promote the impression that you appear to know what you're talking about, and B) generate an aire of mystery and surprise for your audience so that they never really know what to expect from you. It pays to be pedantic, and always be tenacious enough to have the last word, but there's always the danger of stepping over the unspoken line of complete unacceptability where flaming is concerned. This line moves with the topic, and it's often the most challenging part of the artful flame. I was thinking about holding seminars across the country, so that I might pass on my knowledge to others (for money of course - I ain't stupid). My most infamous episode here was concerning the Quran article. That was loads of fun and I was saddened to see the topic die. ------- signature starts "...the staggering layers of obscenity in your statement make it a work of art on so many levels." - Jason Jystad, 10/26/2001 Please review the Legal Disclaimer in my bio. ------- signature ends

I just tries earching the Lounge and it took 1 minute 25 seconds for the first page of results to display.

Are you ok? Too much computers or is the poetry that is brain damaging you ? :wtf: Cheers,Joao Vaz And if your dream is to care for your family, to put food on the table, to provide them with an education and a good home, then maybe suffering through an endless, pointless, boring job will seem to have purpose. And you will realize how even a rock can change the world, simply by remaining obstinately stationary.-Shog9

Congratulations on your 1000th post. May the next 1000 be as interesting :-D Regards, Brian Dela :suss:

Don't worry about it. Some people here wouldn't recognize wit/humor as such if it reach up and bit them square on the ass.

It wouldn't happen here, whatever the nationality It's harder (it should be) for us to be so nationalistic, because our country is made of population mixing since its gallic beginning, and our culture is quiet good to integrate people from different origin. The problem is often that the descendants of immigrate population may be more racist than the ones who disparage their parents or grand-parents !

Forcing tradesmen to use metric system is perhaps the solution for the next generations to use it easily. It's always hard to change references, we have seen that with the disparition of our national currency for the Euro. A lot of people (and not only older ones) here still make the conversion Franc/Euro for every price their ear, even if the conversion isn't easy (the factor is 6.55957). It's stupid, 'cause Franc doesn't and won't exist anymore, but people are generally to lazy to force themselve to change their practice.

The closure won't change anything, on the contrary, it's just a political annoucement. The center was first opened because illegal immigrants wandered through North towns like tramps, waiting an occasion to cross the channel. Now the center closed, illegal immigrant will spread through the country as before, with less control and more delinquency.
