My point was that even at 7 it doesn’t seem too much on the screen.

But it doesn’t matter, rules are rules I suppose.

Mine’s currently a section of lyrics from [Fleming & John’s](http://www.flemingandjohn.com) [“SHHH!”](http://www.flemingandjohn.com/songs.html#shhh). Other than **saramamlana** , no one else has ever seemed to recognize it. No one I know IRL has heard of 'em either.

Note to self: remember to add elipses to the end of certain thread titles. How ironic this thread has become what it has become. But what the hell…

Mine is of course from Inigo’s money scene from Princess Bride…I still get mist when he does it.

It was Pimpdaddy Longstroke, I believe.

My sig no longer applies, I made it when the sig was automatically checked. I might go back to proclaiming my status as Cecil’s own Angel of Death. Or I might ask TVeblen if I can use a quote from one of her mod emails, something about me waiting in the shadows, with terrible patience, honing the Unending Cosmic Hurt.
