You have a very ugly and recurring habit of suggesting other posters are lying when they disagree with you. You are aptly named, and not really fit for civilized company.
Scammer? Really? His post was honest enough for all of us to recognize how asinine the request was when we first read it. If he wanted to lie or scam us he could have, you know, actually lied or scammed us. Keep it in perspective ya’ll.
I give his apology a tepid C-, but it’s good enough for me. It’s tough to be 100% contrite with everyone piling on like they do, even when you know you’re in the wrong.
Reminds me of sign a homeless guy used in Austin when I went to college: “Yell at a homeless vet, $1”
Lute you should start a similar thread title with a link to a donation button. You’d be pretty close to your goal by now.
And I’m sorry about your AC situation. I feel for you, though I wouldn’t give you $30 for it. Stay strong.
If you can find it your heart to forgive me, send $1 to “Sorry Dude”
I’m in for a fiver if I get to see the ‘after’ pics.
:eek:
Never thought I’d say this, but I’m really glad now that Bob Evans didn’t get back to me about that online job application I filled out a year or so ago.
Thanks
That just reminded me that The Prosthetic Bunny Titties second album release is sometime in June.
Link? Bonus points if you don’t ask the giraffeboards for help finding it.
I agree with all of this. I hope you’ll stick around Lute. Heat can kill both humans and rabbits, so I had no problem with your initial request since it sounded like you didn’t have access to any other funds. I do hope you figure out why it was inappropriate to ask us to share this cost with you. But I certainly don’t think you need to leave the board over this. Unfortunately, this will probably not be a good place for you to ask for help if you ever do really need it though.
Every time I see .2c in the title when I come to the pit, I think “.2, or 20%, of the speed of light - that doesn’t make any sense. Oh, .2 cents - wait, that still doesn’t make any sense. It should just be 2 cents, not .2 cents, since two cents makes sense. Even .2 dollars doesn’t make sense for the cents.”
Then I think about how pin and pen sound the same to me.
and then I think “I’m definitely not wearing any underwear”
If you Americans would just come over to the decimal system it wouldn’t be an issue.
I am Canadian, and no it still doesn’t make sense.
Being Canadian never did.
Agreed. I hate the fact that it takes 15 dimes to make a dollar, and 8.33333 pennies to make a dime, and 13/pi 100 dollar bills to make 1,000 dollars.
Totally screwed up.
Damn…how many half crowns in a guinea again?
We do have to cut a quarter in half to get one bit.
But it only takes four quarters to make a byte.
Ahhh… that 'splains it! There IS an astro floating around the SDMB somewhere… I’m AstroBOY14; you sent the check to the wrong place! Imma need you to go to the bank, cancel that check, and get a new one for me (and add an extra zero to the end for my inconvenience).
Thanks!
I thought a byte was 1, and a gigabyte was 1024. I’m so confused.

What’s the problem?
