Most of your mods are biased at +3.5V, but you’ll occasionally run into an older mod with a different biasing configuration.  
What?  
(makes more sense then the dipshit OP)

The mods are made of gallium?

Oh, hell no.

No way I’d let Uri Geller run his fingers all over me. That damn goat was trouble enough.

An OP with as little actual content as the OP decries? Heavens to Betsy. I wish for once these people would learn how to argue coherently and provide facts and opinions in their posts rather than simply providing links and expecting others to do their work for them. I got better things to do than read a bunch of threads or watch Youtube vids and then try to guess what the hell the poster is on about.

Actually there are a lot more than one, and they are pretty much like what I said - a lot of wishful thinking about “pretty soon those bad Republicans will disappear, and it will all be flowers and rainbows and unicorn farts”.

I don’t know where you got the idea that silly hyperbole is the thing to do when people are looking for clarification-has this dismissive approach _ever_ worked on this board or in real life?

Well, WE still call it Gloria Vanderbilt’s Left Nipple. Our fans use GVLN a lot but we prefer just to spell it out.

I think I’m going to close this before Gloria Vanderbilt’s Right Nipple asks for equal time.
