Do NOT Feed The Troll

May Jesus sniff out the funk of your nether regions all ways. :cool:

Ah, I guess we can now add the words customer and complementary to the list of her unknowns.

^^^ Even the supervisor uses the wi-fi. :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

God bless you and him always!!! :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

Ahem. Complimentary. Honestly, though, if we’re going to start prodding at people for misusing their work’s internet connection for leisure activities, I suspect we’d have a lot of prodding to do around here. At least James Otto Sweet Heart only admits to doing so during her off-time.

May Jesus use his magical tongue to probe the gooey depths of your heart-shaped box - all ways.

Possible hijack, but I wonder if the poster in question could pass a turing test.

I could’ve sworn I corrected that misspelling before hitting submit!

Now I’m picturing Harrison Ford giving her a Replicant test, and trying not to bitch slap her every time she says her signature line.

“You’re in a desert, walking along in the sand when all of a sudden you look down… and see a tortoise crawling toward you…”

JOSH: “When he was 10 James had a pet tortoise, it was called…”

“You reach down and you flip the tortoise over on its back.”

JOSH: “Oh, I’d never do that. The tortoise would remind me too much of James - God bless him.” :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

*You’re reading a magazine. You come across a full-page nude photo. Your mate likes it so much he puts up on the bedroom wall. *

JOSH: “I currently sleep alone and (will until I’m married) but I would never allow that kind of picture in my house…unless it was of James” :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

Remember the spider that lived outside your window? Orange body, green legs. Watched her build a web all summer then one day there’s a big egg in it. The egg hatched… and

JOSH: The baby spiders came out and ate the mother spider. I named all of the baby spiders James Otto. He’s my favourite singer you know. :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

HF Shoots self

JOSH: Everyone I talk to does that, they must all have some serious problems. God bless them all :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

^^^ There is to be no pornography in my house. I don’t care who is in the picture.

God bless you always!!! :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

I think that response clearly indicates a failure of the test.

Hello James Otto Sweet Heart; I am Anonymous User. I came here because I wanted to give you a suggestion about how you can make your signature line, “God bless you always,” less annoying to other posters and a little more tolerable.

The problem with your signature is that you make it too noticeable, and you add three smileys after it. On top of that, you skip a line, to write, “Holly.” Here’s how you can make your signature a little more tolerable.

What you’re doing right now:

"(types message here)

God bless you always! :):):slight_smile:

Holly"
Here’s what may make your signature a little less annoying:

"(types message here)

God bless you always,
Holly"

This makes your signature stick out a little less and makes it seem less obnoxious. It also wastes less space which is another thing that makes your signature annoying.

A question to any mod – how exactly does this finishing with the same signing off each post differ from the guidance to only post your “signature” once per thread? The effect is exactly the same.

So what are the odds that this is actually a simulator? The repetition of things said with no obvious self-awareness is getting a little too far fetched.

Thanks for your suggestions, Anonymous User.

Trouble is, she WANTS to be annoying. That way, when people are fed up, and get rude, she can say

“What? All little old me did was to say God Bless you! Them people are so mean, and I’m sooooo nice! Poor me!”

Doesn’t pass the Turing Test, eh?

I guess if JOSH did, it would be an insult to strong AI everywhere.

Um, maybe because blessed are the meek? :cool:

There’s an ATMB thread about it, but we’ve treated signoffs (like hers) as distinct from sigs for a while.

Its never my intention to be annoying, just like it may never be anyone else’s intention to be annoying, but things that they choose to say are still going to rub others the wrong way and do you think that people are going to quit doing them things because they rub others the wrong way? No.

God bless you always!!!

Holly

It may not be your intention to be annoying, but it does annoy other posters.

Yes! And they usually do. When you ignore other people after they tell you that something you’re doing is annoying, you come off as inconsiderate for how others feel.

Look, I never told you to stop saying, “God bless you always!” But can’t you at least make it look a little less annoying as explained in one of my earlier posts:
