Knowing that it annoys **Leaffan** makes it that much more fun. Those of you who think it’s a lame joke are assuming that it’s intended to make YOU laugh. ---

I want someone in Nevada to change their location to “Leaffan Las Vegas”. Someone who has just broken up could put in “Leaffan my ex behind”, but that could get misinterpreted. If I were a race car driver, maybe I would put in “Leaffan you in my dust”. But for now I’m afraid it’ll just have to be “Leaffan this thread”. ---

[QUOTE=Leaffan] Look, just put your real location in the fucking field will ya? [/QUOTE] No. And fuck off. [QUOTE=Leaffan] You think I’m amused or impressed with your little joke location? [/QUOTE] I’m going to have to plead ignorance and apathy, because I don’t know and I don’t care. [QUOTE=Leaffan] I think you’re a pompous, self centered jerk who thinks you’re cute if you joke about your location. [/QUOTE] You get all that from a little joke? I think you’re a fucking moron. [QUOTE=Leaffan] You’ve got a pseudonym for your user name … [/QUOTE] That’s because people tend to laugh at me when I reveal to them I’m Jesus Christ. [QUOTE=Leaffan] … you’re afraid to somewhat localize your position? [/QUOTE] OK, I live in California. Somewhat. [QUOTE=Leaffan] What are you afraid of? [/QUOTE] Wait—you just suggested I’m motivated by humor; now you’re suggesting I’m motivated by fear? Perhaps I’m motivated by the fear of not being funny. [QUOTE=Leaffan] It would clarify umpteen posts from the outset if you only somewhat pinpointed your location … [/QUOTE] Hmm, I needed more than your location to determine that this thread is inane. ---

[QUOTE=Gorsnak] Meh. Anyone who can’t figure out where I am based on my location tag isn’t going to know where Saskatoon, Saskatchewan is anyways. Saskawhat? [/QUOTE] It was the diocese where my old RE teacher was ordained (before he came to Britland). Ah, Stuart Knox Hicks, by the Grace of God Priest, where are you now? As for my location, most people by now have divined I am English and comparatively few Dopers would be able to tune it finer than that. Some, to this day, still apparently think that the “-a” ending denotes a female poster, so I get more mileage out of the field this way, as well as giving a clue as to what the name means. ---
