  • I don't get a lot of the quotations people put in their sigs

    Explain them here if you like

    Origins, history, meaning, you know the drill
    Any views I may express here are personal and certainly do not in any way reflect the views of my employer. Tis the rising of the moon..

    Look, I just don't anymore, okay?

    What a magnificent possibility for trolling * drool *...

    The quotes in my signature generally exhibit one of two possible properties of the mind... Either sheer idiocy (sometimes from people who don't consistently act like idiots) or sheer brilliance. In the latter case the quote usually pertains in some way to the greatest OS ever, Linux.

    Currently... my first quote is from Urban Ranger, who definitely doesn't act like an idiot consistently. Except in Asher-made threads. For some reason he seems to tend to lose a rather large part of his IQ in those...

    ... the latter quote comes from an unsuccesful search. I was trying to find out the exact form of Markos's "Administrators, by definition, do not spam" quote, or even find out if he had ever actually said that. Instead of finding that, I found yet another "interesting" evolution-creation thread with the usual arguments being thrown to both directions. And like always, there was this one creationist who kept the discussion alive mostly by using arguments that don't fit into even the most elementary and general definition of logic that I know. I have it in my signature as a reminder of how differently people can think...

        Mine is something I used to say to someone special that is no longer with me.
        Which side are we on? We're on the side of the demons, Chief. We are evil men in the gardens of paradise, sent by the forces of death to spread devastation and destruction wherever we go. I'm surprised you didn't know that. --Saul Tigh

            .... but what does this "Rocks tonic juice MAGIC" mean? Is it a reference to some drink?

              Rocks Tonic Juice Magic

              It's not really got any relevance to the site whatsoever, and hence the Private-Eye-Emo-Conservatism...

                Pluck the day but be aware to die.

                I have combined both famous lines.
                It's because I'm a christian, I believe we're here on earth to enjoy life. That's why God created it, but we should be aware as well that we have to die one day. Don't live like there's no tomorrow.

                  My quotes are from January of 1999. It was back when my life was going great: SMAC was going to released in about a month, I was running a successful SMAC site, and there was a large effort to reveal CTP for the fraud it was.

                  The first quote is to show how involved I was in the effor. The second is to show that Activision really tried to pass CTP off as Civ3.

                  They are there to remind me of how I once was.

                  "In Apoc, I had one soldier who lasted through the entire game... was pretty cool. I like apoc for that reason, the soldiers are a bit more 'personal'." - General Ludd

                    "My forum is better than this one": a troll thread to draw attention to your own sig, Horse?

                    I think I understand about 50% of mine. I was amused by how fundies who believe in the absolute truth conveyed by the One True God can divide themselves into so many little boxes based on their own interpretations of what the Bible actually says.

                        In my sig the first quote tells everything about me
                        In my sig the second quote tells everything about the greeks in general.
                        I'm not a complete idiot: some parts are still missing.

                          1st line is an Eric Clapton song title , 2nd is Civ Tribe name; the rest is self-explanatory, even for you.

                              I try to have something that pisses people off. Sometimes, though, I just write something that I heard that I like.
