I think I stopped using my sig about the same time I changed it to the current version. It just seemed preachy, or something. ---

Hmmm. I don’t use mine much anymore, but it’s a quote which I’ve always thought typified the nature of a lot of online discourse - I used it on USENET, too. It also has the advantage of being a reference that only the truly literate will recognize, or allows me to be snobby and condescending, if you prefer. ---

I used to have a friend who’s signature was something along the lines of: “To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.” Please note that she USED to be my friend. That sig just struck me as drivel. ---

Peanut butter doesn’t fly through the air. Have you all lost your minds? - Diogenes the Cynic\*\* I read the part of the thread that this sig is from and I’m laughing my ass off! Then I read this line: > [@](#): > > - Originally posted by Aries28\* > **Are they going to say milk is no longer allowed because some kids are lactose intolerant?** And I realized that if you tell a really funny joke right when someone is washing down their peanut butter sandwitch with a cold glass of milk, you _can_ have second hand peanut butter and second hand milk!
