Neat thread! I thought it was longer ago than that, though - March 2001?
I still think he should have the link in his sig. I mean, that would be the right thing to do. Really! 
BTW, Homer, why do they keep deleting it? Commercial stuff??
The very gentlest of quibbles here, but I always heard the “Illigitimati non carborundum” as “Don’t let the bastards grind you down.” Thus the carborundum=abrasives.
IIRC, that stretched rectum was quite a disgusting eye-opener.
My sigs change constantly and will make this post incomprehensible in about 6 months, but by then a new thread on this topic will probably be opened and I can explain all over again (whew, long sentence).
hardygrrl dubbed me the Assclown of Evil in my second Welcome Wagon thread, due to my treatment of the newbies there. I’m still not clear if hardygrrl’s comment is a compliment or insult, but it sounds cool.
As for Hama’s line, it was just recently added today. It’s something she said to me as a joke in a Pit thread. I thought it sounded good and was better than the crap I had as my sig.
Congratulations, Celestina! You win the prize! (whatver it may be).
Sorry about nt getting back on his, but I just saw the thread. My computer has been gone from work (literally) for the past couple of days.
Now I gotta change my sig line again.
Crunchy, sorry, but I’d think that’s a joking insult. Chris Jericho calls people Assclowns when they’re being idiots. So, essentially, you’re an evil idiot. 
Yay. I’ve been noticed. I think.
We are 138 is a song by the Misfits. I think broccoli! has “We were 138” in his (last time I checked, which was a long time ago), because he’s an ass.
In this thread I answered a puzzle question and everybody thought that was cool. That quote from Speaker for the Dead was one of the comments. I didn’t want to blow my own horn too loudly, so I used his comment from that thread, especially because it was very cryptic out of context.
I dunno… I’ve always thought it was kinda cute. In a “just butt-raped by a horse” sort of way.
who is this Anthracite dude anyway?
From what I remember, broccoli! changed the quote from “We are 138” to “We were 138” because he felt the Misfits weren’t making good music anymore.
FWIW, my very non-mystifying sig is as follows:
The top part is a quote that I change every once in a while.
The middle is a semi-permanent (obviously it’ll go away when it reaches zero) countdown to my weekend of hot Chikkisex
The bottom is, and always will be, a link to my website.
** Monster104** -right on the money.
** Crunchy Frog ** was being his usual rough self on the newbies in the Welcome Wagon thread. I posted in there, he flamed me mildly and I shot that gem right back at him…if I remember correctly I said “Damn Crunchy, you’re the Assclown of Evil.”
But like I’ve said before-Chris Jericho may say it now but the movie ** Office Space ** is the true origin of the word FWIW.
I take it as a compliment that he uses it in his sig-now if I could get more people to quote me ::sigh:: …
Shameless plug for a thread where I look really good discussing a sig I no longer have.
The sig still exists. Just click the link in my sig line here to open my homepage. It’s more fun than a barrel of drunken lesbian monkeys!
Because it is a three page website involving many curse words in spanish, a massively stretched open booty-hole, and sex with a czechslovakian goat.

That sig is the same form as mine, so I’ll give my answer: Sigs don’t need a purpose, other than to amaze and amuse.
I change my sig often and randomly, but my favorite which I keep returning to, quotes the chorus from the House of Pain song “On Point.”
I wish somebody would tell me what the heck a “flodnak” is!

Aha! As soon as someone figures out his sig, he has to change it. We’ve broken the code…

I think that’s right (I mean that it’s your sig, not broccoli!'s) Come to think of it, I bet I noticed both of them and therefore didn’t correlate the quote with anyone in particular. But thanks for clearing it up, and I’ll just have to think of you and you alone when I see “We are 138”.

But… But… But… (Wow, that’s some butt)… but we wanna know.

Why, it’s from a song. “With a flodnak patty whack, give the dog a bone, the Straight Dope came rolling home.”
Was this in reference to this part of your sig?:
I couldn’t find the lyrics to the song online. If not, what ever could this mean, then?
Of course, if you don’t respond, I think that answers the question.
Esprix, ever curious
