The All-Porpoise Monty Python sig: If I told you you had a beautiful sig, would you hold it against me? You could have a link to this saying “Still Looking for a sig…” The doctor says my nose wouldn’t bleed so much if I just kept my darned finger outta there! Eternity, my friend, is a Long Fucking Time. ---

As the Empress of the Lemmings, I hereby decree that your sig line should have something nice about ME in it. BTW, I thought of this one today. You can have it if you so desire: “I am the classic bad example.” ---

I have been advertising my want for a sig line in my sig line ever since I joined. Have I received any suggestions? No. Nothing. I thought by now, surely someone would have assigned me a sig from one of my pit rants. Is there a form I need to fill out? ---

“My greatness cannot be reduced to a pithy one-line sig.” **Tristy** : It’s just one letter away from **Twisty**. _No two sets of clues are alike. It is not what you have, it’s what you don’t have that counts_ --Another sig is stolen from American literature. “Hey, did I lose my sig?” \<-- Kat steals sigline suggestion from Totoro, film at eleven. ---
