What does _naff_ mean? I’ve seen it in print a few times lately but it’s not in the dictionary.

I almost never use it since it’s so long. Can there be anyone who doesn’t know what movie this quote is from?

Rarely use it but I’ve never changed it so it’s been seen quite a bit.

I’m not sure what my current sig is, so I’ll kill to birds with one stone. Find out and up my post count as well.

I chose mine because it sums up my cosmological manifestuperation really nicely, it’s from Dante’s Paradiso (which everyone ignores), and it’s real purty.

I don’t have a sig, as there are so many clever little things that would go nicely at the bottom of a post, that I just couldn’t bring myself to choose one.

BUT, I recently remembered a neat refrain from a song, which I _would_ use, if I were the sort to use a sig:  
“Some days, the bear will eat you. Some days, you eat the bear.”

What the hey, I’ll throw mine into the mix. I like it, but I don’t think I’ve ever used it, as it always seemed irrelevant to whatever I was posting.
