'Cause I like to be called “Uke” rather than “Ike.” See, “Uke” is really cool, and “Ike” just sounds sort of, I don’t know, ethnic. This is the first time anyone’s complained, too.
Force of habit: I started on bbs’s and USENET, and in both cases it was standard to sign your posts.

Uke, email TubaDiva, maybe she can help you assume your new identity:D
Just wanted to check in with Uncle Beer and let him konw that I am home from work now.
Im not really even bitter at anyone in here thats the funny thing. This is the Pit and I am getting a kick out of the gang of people molesting me. I dont really affect any of you and none of you affect me so to be truly bitter would be foolish.
You’re still cheesedicks though. (Most of you any way)

The sig and “You’re” are a special delivery for Andy.
Good, 'cause he was waiting up for you.
Uncle Beer watches over us all.
“Ikelele Uke” ?
{tries it on and goes to look in the mirror}
Someone should tell Phlip that it is “I’m”, “that’s”, and “don’t”, not “Im”, “thats”, and “dont”. Punctuation, always proper punctuation!
I don’t know, it kind of emphasises your hips.
i do have to wonder (and mind you, I’m just wondering aloud) if this pile on is getting a little out of control. We’ve established that Phlip made a crazed mistake in posting the OP. We’ve established that UncleBeer hates him. We’ve established that the rest of us love the mods and hate Phlip. I mean, is this done?

I thought it was “Dignity. Always dignity.” (o’ course, Phl don’t have much o’ that either…)

I don’t hate Phlip, I do admire the job done by the moderators, and I think UncleBeer is overly sensitive and tends to make an ass of himself. With those caveats, I’m with you jarbabyj; I’ll shut up.
Yeah, I over-reacted. Frankly, Philip’s rant just wasn’t worth all of this. I’m done with this. My apologies to all for my stupid reactionary behavior.
Dammit Unc, couldn’t you have locked this thing on your way out?!?
You may have over-reacted a tad, UNC, but I think another poster was the clear winner in the “over-reaction” department.
He may not “get” why SDMB isn’t at fault, but dammit, we’ve taught Phlip the difference between “your” and “you’re!”
Who says we don’t fight ignorance around here? Huh?

No, I’m sorry. This is Abuse.
